If you ever have kids, you'll be a great father.
His empathy skills should be mandatory to be a teacher!
Quick Fix fu
He taught me when I was in 1st grade. He made movies with us and made the most fun projects. He really is an amazing person.
If you haves kids. You will be a very good dad.
maybe you should consider adopting some kid because i think you'd a great dad.
As a mother who has been deeply involved in my community's schools for almost two decades and has her own fake children (who I sometimes like more than my "real" son), I absolutely LOVE this story! I'm so glad he realizes the difference he makes. My favorite affirmation story happened a few years ago when a then freshman and I were talking in a social situation. Another person made a comment which prompted Matthew to look at me and tell me, "Ms Debbie, I will never forget you. You made first grade library so much fun and most of all, you smiled at me every day and when you asked me, "how ya doin' little dude?', I knew you cared and really listened to my answer." My heart swelled nearly out of my chest. That was the "rule" I made for myself, to really listen to these little people and hopefully, they would know that they could always come to Ms Debbie.
This is a beautiful story!
I wish we had more teachers like you. We trust our children with teachers 8-9 hours a day..if only they all had a heart like yours. May you be blessed with a “quiver full” of children.❤️
i'm honestly crying. the world needs more teachers like you!
We agree :)
I was always told that I'm too kind and too empathetic. My heart is open to everyone and I think compassion is essential. I'm studying to become a high school teacher. I love teenagers, because they're at a stage in their lives when you can start to see what kind of adults they will become, and it's not easy to figure out who you are and who you want to be. I want my classroom to be a safe place for them to grow and express themselves freely. I want to give them the final push in the right direction before they enter adulthood, because sometimes they don't have that at home. My compassion is my strength, and I hope I can give a bit of that strength to those who need it, because everybody deserves a chance.
Stay too kind and too empathetic...it's not a weakness, it's a great strength!
Wow. I am in love with this man. I would be a surrogate for him in a HEARTBEAT.
You're awesome. I am a former teacher myself. I wouldn't consider myself a "fake father". I did just as much as the man whom planted the seed. Teachers are indeed heroes. The job might not pay a lot but the contributions and the effects you give these individuals is worth it.
Honestly, as a gay man, I found being a Big Brother very rewarding. My Little Brother was super stoked that he was the only kid he knew with TWO Big Brothers.
They grow up too fast. They disappoint themselves and fall into behaviors that they told you were "stupid" but I know in my heart he was changed for the better from having me in his life.
And I know for a fact having him in my life changed me for the better.
I learned a lot from him. Having him in my life taught me patience, and limits, and how to be a better man - for the love of that Little Brother.
Thanks Brian!
David dear...God bless your beautifully kindhearted & gentle soul...Your school district should be very proud of your dedication to your young students...You could be such a wonderful & loving Dad...xoxo from Ohio...
You are truly a wonderful human being - thank you for sharing your story 💜
I felt so bad for not having watched this video at once I came across this...
A lovely experience to watch!
Amazing man. Amazing story
This is heart warming. Thank you for everything you do.
This made me so happy! You are a great person and a wonderful influence on our youth which are our future.
Awww such an inspiring story!! 💗💗
Thank you. Wish I had a teacher like you when I was growing up.
I wish i had a teacher like that.
I was his student in 1st grade. He was amazing, he really influenced my life.
@@leoh7507Wow, I just saw this reply after watching this video again... I didn't have a teacher like that. I didn't have the kindest father either, but at 49, God gave me a male boss who loves being a dad and even does his very best to treat me like a daughter. God has been good to me.
This is the sweetest thing I've ever watched!!!!
What an amazing person!!!! You deserve the world
Oh this makes my heart so happy 😭😭😭 You’re amazing!!
Aaawww this was so sweet you should be extremely proud of yourself!
TEAARRRSSS OMG you are a great man
This warmed my heart so much
I don't think you can watch this and not cry!!!!!
Your story warms my heart ❤️ The impact you have on your “fake children” will influence our future leaders! Thank you for all that you do!
I was like going to skip this video but then decided to watch it. And wow by the end I was moved to tears.
Screw this video, got me tearing up at work, didn't know that'd be what I signed up for when clicking this video! Heartwarming stuff :)
I'm not crying! You're crying!
I love this story!!!
You make me wanna bear a child for you
You are such a wonderful person.
Thank you Soulpan Cake.
The school system does not work for most kids. It is one kind of learning, one kind of test, one kind of intelligence. Unschool your kids, teach to their kind of intelligence, dont let them lose their spark.
what a wonderful story.
What a wonderful, uplifting story to hear!! He is such an incredible human :)
Amazing human being ❤
This guy, David, would make a very good father. He was an excellent, and I mean excellent, Father Figure to that Jewish Boy who he called his "Fake Son". I Love hearing Stories like these. They're so Touching.
I’m crying

This is beautiful ❤️
I feel like this needs to be a movie 🤔🙃💕

i hope your annual tradition never ends :')
It was great
As someone with an adopted sibling - I get super upset with the label of “fake” vs “real” family member. I don’t understand the need to devalue relationships based on biological relation!
It takes a village people. It takes a village...
The rhetoric of this channel is faulty. Im a gay cis male, I apreciate what is being done.... Its just off.
I’m crying
