Soeren Palumbo should become a professional speaker. I would love to have him come and speak at our middle school and high school. I think the message of acceptance carries more weight with kids when it's coming from a peer, rather than someone in the guidance department.This video really had a huge impact on me. So much so, that I am scheduled
to host our neighborhood book club this month, and rather than having
everyone read some "no brainer" light fiction book, I'm going to have them
view this video instead. I just sent out the invitation with the U-Tube link
attached.
It will be interesting to see what kind of feedback I get out of it. I'm really
hoping the moms that receive this will share it with their children. Many of
them will be attending my son's school next year.
I am stunned. This teen shows more wisdom about special needs than most other people I know. Have tissues handy.

Thanks for the link. I have a hard time knowing my son will be the butt of jokes like this young man mentions. This is VERY GOOD I put it on my Myspace too. ThANK YOU!
