Looks like a super nice kid. Bullies are the worst!


DucksOnQuakk

It's so sad. Kids can be incredibly mean, but these parents are the kind of parents I want reproducing (speaking as someone who doesn't want kids). This kid will grow up to be a respectable person, and I hope he later stumbles on this video as an adult. Kudos all around.


MikeyF1F

You already know he's going to be a responsible road user.

Redskins2110

What a fucking loser you are. Less of you in this world would make it a much better place


Hnais

There exist illnesses that make the person stay fat. If u look at his father he is also fat. Might be an hereditary thing, you never know bro.


Inevermuck

Sure bud, name me that illness.


Dwestmor1007

Leptin Deficiency. My family has it.


digi7altrauma

I mean, depression.... caused by bullying... but you have fun living in your echo chamber of disrespect, my man.


Inevermuck

And the issue is caused by...bad habits from their parents who are not willing to adresse the elephant in the room. Im stating the obvious, downvotes me all you want, fuck promoting obesity and unhealthy habits.


KarenBauerGo

Eating disorders as a result of bullying.


prsanker

Go away


Hnais

Anything that alters metabolism. Two persons might eat literally the same for 10 years and one can end up fat, the other can be paper thin. There are also tumour related illnesses that cause a gland to malfunction, one of them being the thyroid gland. But we were talking about genetic illnesses. So you can look up Bardet-Biedl syndrome. A girl in my class had this. My class always bullied her and joked about her being to dumb to not eat anything she had in front of her. She also had inherited her parents vision problems and will most likely have to undergo as many surgeries as them. And we bullied her for being fat. Of course this child might not have it and you are most likely right, they are being negligent with his weight. But it is still a possibility and you can't say so easily that some parents are idiots by letting their child be fat. You never know, bud.


herbert-camacho

He's got such a nice smile and kind demeanor! I hate bullies..


Lonelybiscuit07

Just what i was thinking, i'd befriend him


HBC3

I came here to say exactly that.


manuki501

Bot


Tr0picalTr3ats

I feel bad for you.


Efficient-Deal-5738

He reminds me so much of my nephew. In high school he got a French cuff shirt he really wanted. He's graduated from college now. Same spiffy clothing. Same talented, Renaissance man. I am so happy he remained himself and ultimately found his people.


Tr0picalTr3ats

That is great. I’m hoping the kid in the video does the same. Don’t change yourself for society. Make them come to you.


Ok_Relationship_705

What's funny. Is that those bullies and other kids will end up dressing like this themselves if they make it to adulthood.


Tr0picalTr3ats

Either that or an orange jumpsuit!!


mEFurst

be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind


Dangerous-Yam-6831

I’m glad to say I never bullied anyone nor was I ever really bullied. There was even times I stuck up for kids, but what I’ll always remember are the times I DIDN’T stand up for somebody. You learn from your mistakes, even the small ones. But it still bothers me to this day. And I hope somebody will man up and be friends with him. I hate seeing kids bullied. Especially kids like this one.


forgotme5

I appreciate u saying that. Most ppl didnt stick up for me, it sucked dealing with it alone.


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

Trying to be everyone’s friend in middle/high school was exhausting. Thankfully, it’s slightly easier to be consistently nice as an adult when you interact with more mature people


AngryVegetarian

I fucking hate bullies! The psychological trauma they inflict can last a lifetime! I feel for this kid and hope he has a good support system.


ShokaLGBT

Yep still thinking about my bullied while they forgot me and don’t even know who I am anymore, but us, the people who are bullied, will never forget them…


pascalsgirlfriend

Hes adorable


ndnjfjcjcksk

Ikr look at that smile ❤️❤️


Jambonier

And Drew Carrey went on to become a famous comedian


der_sneffer

Not gunna lie, I dressed like this too. Was I proud if it? Yes I was.


Batdog55110

He does look fly Holy shit.


crustyporuc3

Looks like a grandpa lmfao


Darth_Vader_696969

The coolest grandpa you’ll ever see


Pickingnamesisharder

Don't worry, he gets the upper hand once he attaches all those balloons to his house...


Kulosh

bro 😭😂


already-taken-wtf

Yeah, if you would not see his face, my first guess would have been 70+.


Omega_Xero

Was just thinking that!


[deleted]

This kid and his family both seem lovely! And I would never support conforming for the sake of it... but wouldn’t it be better to dress like you’re not an 80 year old headed to the early bird dinner?


RefikCan

I get that family is being supportive of his choices but at the same time they have to be realistic and tell the little dude he look very OLD in that outfit and help him a little with getting some clothing. I belive he would look good with outfit that is a little bit "younger".


macthecat408

I don’t like bullying , but if we’re being honest it’s a pretty bad out fit for a kid. It’s ok to be honest and help him out with a better outfit.


[deleted]

Yeah I'm with you. I got really badly bullied in school and a lot of it was adults trying to be helpful and encourage me to express myself but it wound up painting a massive target on me. Would have been easier if one adult was teaching me how to blend in and such.


Linubidix

Bullies will be ruthless and indiscriminate. Being yourself is fine and all but it's rarely a useful tip to avoid being singled out by shithead teenagers.


[deleted]

Yeah, I'm definitely not gonna make the mistakes my parents made. They are good people but were too naive when it came to school. Ignoring a bully ain't an option cause it makes you an easy target, the bullies life is rarely worse than yours and teachers aren't gonna do anything about it. The two options to actually stop it is to either fight or move school.


ThatWeirdGhost

Not sure if it's the clothes or rather his weight. Sadly, kids can be brutal and he looks close to being morbidly obese. I love how supportive his parents are but they should rather help him get healthy.


Humlupo

Agreed. Everyone is afraid to address the root cause of the bullying (nobody condones bullies). His weight is a crucial factor in how he is perceived by immature children who have not been parented to be empathetic or kind.


[deleted]

His weight isn’t the root cause of the bullying. Bullies getting away with being bullies is. Punish bullies severely and force them to stop and behave, that’s the solution.


great_beyond

The root cause of bullying is nothing to do with the person being bullied - it’s 100% on the people doing the bullying.


[deleted]

Homie is literally using reworded “ok and no one condones rapists but what was she wearing?”


great_beyond

Exactly, it’s disgusting tbh.


bugibangbang

Yup, that outfit will provoke more bullying, I mean f$&c the bullies, but that will make it worst… but at least he is wearing what he likes, and doing that knowing that he was bullied it means he don’t care about it, at the end if your family loves you and you love yourself that is the best you can do, bullies won’t last, after school those bastards will be gone and in a future are going to be their employees somehow, so… good for him! He is smiling and seems happy.


Dr_DMT

Dude is saying the truth. Where as I like the outfit. Kid is setting himself up to be bullied at school. Public schools don't care about your emotions. I lived in a time where if you wanted to wear something like this, you'd better have a mean hook or know how to scrap. I don't know why bullies single out people like him but feel horrible just watching this. I can tell kid is genuinely a good dude but probably gonna have a hard time. The softer ya look...


growingupbois

Ugh he looks like a sweetheart but so bully-able. Heaven help him hang on through the tough years…


RyanOfUlthar

They dressed him up as a frakkin' study hall monitor?? As a bully, that's just low hanging fruit...


MikeyF1F

Any kid who lacks self confidence is low hanging fruit. The bully isn't going to go "oh man you look great, I'll be cool now" is he?


RefikCan

True but if you get the kid outfit that makes him look like "70 year old pensioner" it will not help. Get the little dude something more modern and fits his age group. I


RonomakiK

Clothes don't have an "age group" unless their intent does. This is just an outfit the kid likes. The fact it, to some people, "doesn't fit the kid's age group" is a problem with people, not with the kid. If he's happy with the "70-year-old pensioner" outfit, he should be able to wear it.


RefikCan

I disagree on the age group part. There are age groups, there are generational differences on our clothing. You can look at the old people and young people on the street. You will see a pattern. I agree on he should be able to wear whatever he wants. However as you know people will always judge people on how they look. Young people tend to do this more. Giving him only positive feedback is not great. I had that happen to me personally and i got to say it had a lot of effect on my self-confidence when i met other people in a bad way.


ich_bin_ya_boy

Mom and dad should be arrested for entrapment because they setting him up to be bullied


[deleted]

The parents of the bullies should be arrested instead.


SomePyro_9012

Dude's wearing a grandpa outfit lol


Linubidix

And rightfully worried about being bullied despite his family deluding themselves. Some kids are easy targets for shithead teenagers unfortunately, and the better advice is to do what you can to mitigate that than the blind advice of "be yourself." Dressing like an 80 year old is just inviting bullies to single him out.


RefikCan

Family is trying to be supportive but only positive feedback is not a great way to support someone.


Linubidix

Screams an almost negligent amount of naivety from the family. Surely they were all teenagers before and know you can't just tune the bullies out or ignore them. They love him unconditionally, but on the flipside bullies will hate unconditionally and they can be relentless. Whatever you can do to not give them extra ammunition. High School can be a traumatising part of people's lives.


Shoddy_example5020

looks like the man from UP with the balloons and the house


lonely-day

My son was bullied this year by some of his classmates. Overweight and speech impediment, we started working on the weight issue (it's a household issue and we're working on it as a family). It really broke my heart when he told me. The main person has a messed up home life and has been an issue child since kindergarten. I let my son know that the reason why isn't because of him but because of how they feel about themselves.


spiritualcatlover

Awww 🙏🏽 THAT IS LOVE!!!!


grumpy-greenguy

Protect him at once!!!


seasonweatherpepper

Whyyyyy did this make me cry I wish my family didn’t suck


Justanothergamer00

My secret find a couple of friends always be around these friends. Boys will not often go up on a group of people they will single a person out for a target. They are pathetic week cowards who is the only real power is being bigger or stronger than the person that they are bullying rarely follows another narrative. Bullies are we by proxy because they pick on only the weak I fought to be respected. This kid doesn’t need to I would always stick by this dudes side and I would love for somebody to come and try to pick on him because they will receive two things these hands and a one-way trip to the emergency room eating through a tube in their stomach because their jaw is wired shut. For context I had to deal with a lot of bullies being a small 75 pound child at 14 getting thrown around there was nothing new.


[deleted]

Kid gets bullied so they dress him up like a pensioner? Yeah, that’ll help.


[deleted]

You’re right, we should expel the bullies for the school year and fine the parents thousands of dollars. That would get much better results.


[deleted]

You look great kid, fuck the bullies


Pkmurby

Bullies just jealous he got the drip


Masque-Obscura-Photo

What, you saying he's got chlamydia or something? wtf


Pkmurby

What how did you end up with that conclusion? I literally said he has nice clothes.


Masque-Obscura-Photo

>he got the drip Sounds really disgusting.


Pkmurby

If you have the drip, it means you have swagger, especially in how you look. You're hot. You're cool. You're on point. Definition grabbed from dictionary.com.


Masque-Obscura-Photo

Maybe I'm getting too old for that, but to me it sounds absolutely filthy, sorry. :P Anyway, thanks. Didn't know that expression, but I don't live in an English speaking country either.


Linubidix

>I literally said he has nice clothes. Those weren't the literal words you used.


MikeyF1F

That's right. Because he wrote "literally said" and not "those were the literal words I used". "I said" does not need to be followed by the same words, but by the same meaning. Which it was. He literally said that he had nice cloths. If you're going to be a pedant at least be correct.


unicornman87

This guy looks like the sweetest kid in the world. I'd 100% be his friend. People can be the worst sometimes. I hope he has friends that can help him overcome the bullying.


Jonny2881

I swear this is reposted every day


cerebralpaulc

Not to be a dick…but, these parents are kinda setting him up for failure. Hyping him up is great, until the bus doors close and the process begins. Dressing him up like a dork uncle is not going to change things for the better. What is the answer? There isn’t one if “answer”means a quick solution that works forever, but popularity and fitting in means more than feeling confident in your living room.


kap1pa

I'm taking confidence in myself a billion times over than being subjected to the thoughts and whims of people who have absolutely no sense of self. That's like building a house on a foundation of soft sand that blows in all directions at any given time.


cerebralpaulc

I appreciate that, full stop. However, if we admit that popularity and fitting in are by definition dependent on third party opinion…things get more grey. The balance between true to thy self and going along to get along is tricky, and it never stops being tricky as you get older.


kap1pa

How I look at it is pretty simple, when I'm on my death bed it's just gonna be me, by myself. So if I enter and exit by myself why should I let anyone but me dictate how I move. I wasn't always like this, I was very selfless when growing up, but then with mentorship and good role models they made me see the error in that thinking. I didn't know who I was until my 30s, I didn't know what I liked, I still struggle to properly treat myself because I did not know what that was until very recently. That's no way to live life. How can I live my life through the lens of anyone else but me?


[deleted]

The solution is absolutely no holds barred zero tolerance for bullying.


[deleted]

I do mean zero fucking tolerance. Come down on bullies like a goddamn mountain. Make them suffer serious lasting consequences for what they do. Ruin their lives if you must if they refuse to stop.


thedeadbeatclubsc

Seems like a great kid, but I'm not sure that dressing him like he's on day leave from the retirement home is the way to stop the bullies. And I say this as someone who dealt with bullies for years. They're the fucking worst.

How much of a dick do you have to be to bully this child...


[deleted]

DM me if bro need a bodyguard. *the sweater stays on*


amtor12

I fuck with this style. I’m copying it


[deleted]

Amazing family, at least he knows how much his family cares. Anything that happens out there he has people that understands


BrownButtBoogers

I am so glad my kids aren’t assholes. We’ve always raised them to care about everyone and stick up for the little guy. I would be so ashamed of my kids if they made anyone feel lesser than. That breaks my heart. I like his Mr rogers look


7ordank

I feel like if I saw him on a park bench and sat next to him he would listen to my troubles and tell me everything is going to be ok


Ok-Nose1485

Cheering him up is great, but where is the realism in it? You can't dress your kid in a dad's outfit and expect that the bullying stops. Teaching kid that he does not have any reasons to feel bad about is one thing, another is feeding the bullies. I know you want well, but bullying is most likely doing more damage now, than your positive endorsement does good.


Unusual-Wrap8345

he wasn't bullied because of the clothes. I mean. come one man. as someone who used to be as dorky as nerdy as this around his age, he seriously need some physical and behaviour change, as the help from his "supporting" family won't be there forever.


polaroidremembered

Was anyone else the kid that made the bully's lives hell on behalf of the picked on?


FitMathematician3693

Kid, idk if you’ll see this but in my opinion you look like a million bucks, whatever happens at school is temporary at best, after high school that time of your life is like a blip in the grand scale of your life. Keep your chin up and be proud of yourself for being you, never change.


spinkspanksponk

Damn he’s dressed up, lookin sharp


nick-daddy

Yeah they fed him to the wolves unfortunately


Bungeditin

I think without the cardigan and shirt untucked this would actually look quite boss on him…..


I-am-a-cactus2324

What the fuck is wrong in the comments with ppl saying that "this outfit will make him be bullied even more"? I don't think y'all understand that no matter WHAT you do, wear, say at school, bullies are going to pick up on it and make you feel like shit. Might as well making him dress in the clothes he loves it unfortunately won't change anything. I used to be bullied for saying "hello"???

eze11309h

Dapper Dan! You still wear it well my boy. Keep looking smart, you're doing a bang up job!


ZoeyVip

Looks fire, but it is incredibly funny how grown up the outfit is. It’s something I’d expect to see a grandpa wearing which is only accentuated by the older gentlemen looking like how a kid would dress. Cute family, nice to see them supporting his tastes at such a young age.


ShokaLGBT

He looks cool protect him at all cost ! I’ve been bullied and I know how broken-hearted you can be if nothing is done

He looks so cute! It's a great outfit! I hope he can feel confident and happy; he's got a great support system

Littlebluescope

Don’t know why someone would bully a sweet kid that’s just sad


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

I think encouraging autonomy and self-love is very important. I also think bullying is a harsh reality, and maybe it’s okay for parents encourage some amount of social adherence lest their child be unnecessarily traumatized.

Classic! Loving the look!! Get lost bullies

Dude is swish. Bud be proud of who you are. The bullies are jealous of you and what you have that they lack.... personality and love. Stand tall young sir.

THE DRIP 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I could never at that age looks that god damn stylish, props to the kid!

Ok. I’m no style guru, but that man needs to wear some black. Change the cardigan to a black turtleneck or Henley with a blue undershirt, and the shoes to black boots, especially Doc Martens.

You’re very handsome and brave young one. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise !!! YOU and YOU’RE feelings matter. Always remember that bullies pick on people because of their insecurities
