Filming it and putting it on the internet should make things better.
It absolutely does. It brings awareness to the situation, and effects it has on the kid being bullied and misery they are in

Some of you are real pieces of shite. That kid is showing real emotions that no 9yr old should ever have to show.
I’ve counseled downs kids for 20 years. Some times it takes every fiber of my being to not lose my shite on the twats that frick with these kids.

Separate issue. Also incomplete facts. So I’ll just limit my comments to what I can ascertain, which is a beautiful child made in God ‘s image, who has a disability, and who knows suffering in a way that no nine year old should ever know. My heart breaks for him. I hope someone with some cultural influence like Peter Dinklage intervenes and gives that kid some perspective on the value of his life.

Its so sad when she said she needs to watch everything he does so she can make sure he doesnt kill himself.
Cant imagine being on edge like that all the time. Awful.
Kids can be cruel, but they say things only as long as they know it bothers you. I am a redhead and heard “insults” all day everyday. And I never let anything bother me. “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me” was my motto. I laughed at them and with them. Teasing someone is not much fun if it doesn’t get them riled up. Eventually, they gave up.

No way am I going to watch that.
the mom shouldn't have put it on the web for everyone to see.
the issue is.....what exactly can you do to stop 9 year olds from bullying a child with dwarfism? It's horrible behavior, but 9 is still young.
Let's say you found out your son or daughter, age 9, was bullying a child with dwarfism. What would you do to stop your child from doing it? You aren't at school to monitor them. Teachers can't watch all kids at once.
Such a tragic situation.

It’s a small world. A little encouragement can keep someone off a short rope and the tiny effort it takes to prevent someone from feeling miniscule dwarfs the Lilliputian feelings of superiority it takes to looking down on someone.

So, your kid is being bullied, so you're going to put video of him crying on the internet. Jesus, people are fricking stupid.

It’s exposure, and he’ll get 1000X more recognition now with his pain broadcast across the globe than he would as some dwarf no one knew that got bullied in some Aussie town.
The reality of the fact is that any publicity is good publicity and His mum just secured him some gigs, selfish reasons or not

On Friday, Ms Bayles re-shared a video she took of Quaden in 2016 where he lists the insults he is bombarded with as a child.
“I don’t want them to call me bubba, baby or cute,” Quaden says in the short clip.
His mother said the same message still stands four years later.
It's the fricking mother causing this shite. She has turned mole hills into mountains and the normal "shut up" into "give me a rope."

Everyone took turns at being bullied when I was growing up. I got bullied and I WAS bullied and we all ended up ok, except that one kid who kept playing Star Trek well into is high school years - I digress. At any rate, I feel for the kid but his parents need to quit letting him play the victim all the time. Life can suck and sure people can gang up on you, but at some point, you ARE ON YOUR OWN. Give your kid some confidence to fight back and equip them with boldness, help him/her to be comfortable in their own skin and feel loved no mater what.

This is heartbreaking.
Is no one calling out this woman for sending her precious son into pure hell day after day?
Idgaf what I would have to sacrifice, I would starve before I would throw my child to be devoured by animals.
SHE sends him there. Day after day.

They should’ve thrown all the “short” people into the wildfires

I feel for this kid. But never in a million years would I broadcast my kid crying like that for clout.

They should take away the Astros WS title

If it makes this little shite feel better I'm all for it.
