parenting

Five boys at a Minnesota elementary school noticed that one student was being picked on for his learning disability and decided to do something about it. They pledged to become his friend and "have his back". His mother told KARE 11 that their friendship has been life changing for him. The boys will be recognized with a spirit award at the end of the school year.

"All the planning, storyboards, materials and ideas were developed by my daughter and the end of the video shows a glimpse of the time it took her and that it's all her work - I can't describe how hard it is to completely hold back and let her take the reigns, letting her make mistakes and find solutions to problems."

He's a realist... sort of.
