Yo this video really touched my heart man, it has made me see how privileged I was as a young man. 😳
What monster would dislike this
He’s got a creeper hat!! He’s such a kind soul. â¤︠â¤ï¸ÂÂ
That’s a real heroine!
Bless his heart. I'm overjoyed he remembered this wonderful teachers name.
He will truly be loved, cared for and appreciated at her home.
I thank God for the way he put this young man in a safe home. With a teacher who already knew him. She must have made quite an impression on him.
That's heartwarming I know she is excited to host him for his first " real" thanksgiving and Christmas celebration. I wish I could see his face during those celebrations.
Bless his heart. He will finally receive the love and family he deserves.
Love see more updates about him. Would like to help donate to him ðŸ˜ÂÂâ¤
That is so sweet of her!!!â¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂ😽
Thank you Abc news
such a sad story with a happy ending. He looks like a grown man but he’s nothing more than a child. He needs someone to care for him and love him. This teacher must have meant so much to him if it was the only name he could remember after so many years 😢 teachers are heroes
she might me retired, she still taught us something today.
Ugh so sweet 💕ðŸ™ÂÂ
Oh bless her heart.💖
PLEASE, more stories like this, and less of what we all normally get, which makes me cry for different reasons. God Bless this special women & this special young man, all the best to you both!
Gives me some hope watching these
Thank you for being more than a teacher.
Awwwww😢ðŸ’â€â€ÃƒÂ°Ã…¸â€™â€â€ÃƒÂ°Ã…¸â€™â€“
Happy news is touching news. Always breaks a tear in my eyes.
God bless you all!!! He looked so happy!!
So sweet!!!!☺☺
Kindness is a choice.
Be the change you want to see.
creeper
This is what the news should be about and stop mainstreaming violence
I love it!!
Oh my god God bless her truly! My mom is a special ed aide and she would totally do this. Gives me hope for a better nation and society.
Need more people like her
Great story .. puts a knot in my throat ..
Great thanks
Wow. Amazing lady â¤
So many children grow up not ever going to Disneyland or an amusement park.
Very uplifting and encouraging. The world needs more stories like these and praiseworthy people like this teacher needs notoriety. Thanks ABC and God bless!
That’s so sweet 😊â¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂâ¤ï¸ÂÂ
Why would anyone downvote this video!!??! It doesn't even make sense
I cant!!! ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂ💜💜
This is lovely
I’m in tears ðŸ˜ÂÂ
So sad that he's never had a birthday, Christmas, or celebrated any holidays. I don't know his whole story but being part of special needs support groups I have noticed some families do exclude their special needs kids from daily life, it's heartbreaking. Bless him & the teacher
The kind of behavior that makes America, or any country, great. Admirable person, the teacher and blessed, the young man.
What a good woman.
Creeper, aw man
Who could abandon this man like that? ðŸ˜ÂÂ
Where in the world is his family? I hope they are okay, because someone has been caring for this man for the past thirty years. She had to have shown extraordinary kindness to him as his middle school teacher for him to remember her and no one else. She is blessed and a real blessing.ðŸâ€Â…
Dude.
THIS IS AWESOME!
Some teachers are awesome and I hope for the very best for them.
Dangit… this makes my heart cry! Wtf is wrong with people, how you gonna never give your baby a birthday party or presents 😢 that teacher lady seems amazing and i suppose its never to late to make people feel special. There is however im sure a special place in hell for the others who treated this man poorly in his early years. ðŸ’â€Â
Gosh, this is wonderful.
Happy birthday Chris! 🎂ðŸŽÂÂðŸÂŸ⛵🌊♥ï¸ÂÂ
Wonderful woman. Teachers have such an impact on our lives. Happy birthday ðŸŽËâ€
God Bless her
