I have three sons with autism. How I wish they would be treated like this!!! I love them to pieces and know that they have so much to give and teach others, if people just took the time to get to know them, if they just looked behind their actions/behaviour. Sadly, too many people do not. Even in church!
As we got together for family home evening today we choose to watch several videos. The final was this one. My oldest son is autistic and as we watched everyone in the family was filled with tears. As the video stopped my oldest (12) cried that he wished he could be normal. He crawled on my lap and as a family we hugged each other. My other son his younger brother said. " no Tanner we love you just the way you are, and so does Jesus. He wants you to be different." thank you for this video for all families with special little ones.
And now I'm shedding tears. It's beautiful that your son has such a wonderful support system. Sad, that he should feel a lack, sad that anyone should feel a lacking that we don't measure up to outwardly views. The scriptures tell us that the Lord looketh upon the heart. That is where we should also look, is upon the heart, and not what the world would have us look upon.
I loved this video, they are so cute an example of love. and this is true, everyone deserves to be loved and valued, no matter how different they are from you.
My story is a little similar. I have epilepsy, but I had symptoms associated with Autism and Aspergers Syndrome until I was 15, so I've lived both worlds. I now live a mostly normal life, but I completely understand Hyrum, and how he feels. People with Autism and Aspergers have such a huge heart! They know they're not normal, and anxiously wish they could be. But the Lord is always with them, for they are His. We are so blessed to have people like him in this world!
If you don't walk as most people do, Some people walk away from you, But I won't! I won't! If you don't talk as most people do, Some people talk and laugh at you, But I won't! I won't! I'll walk with you. I'll talk with you. That's how I'll show my love for you. Jesus walked away from none. He gave his love to ev'ryone. So I will! I will! ... I'll walk with you. I'll talk with you. That's how I'll show my love for you. (Children's Songbook pg. 140)
This story touched me more than anyone can imagine. I am the eldest of five; I have a sister just younger than me named Hannah, and our only brother's name is Hyrum. He has autism, and he just turned fourteen. He is teased at school as well, and even in our ward at church there are parents who make critical comments about him and his behavior. But like Hannah in the video, I can see the love that my brother has for those around him. He is a precious child of God, and a blessing in my life.
My 12 year old is this way with his little brother who has Autism. The love siblings have is just remarkable. Watching my son try to reach into the other's world, is a measure beyond words. Heavenly Father provided these kids with the best love possible... in a sibling that happens to be their best friend. Thank you for this video, both my 12 year old and myself were in tears.
Love this video! Thank you for sharing Hyrum and Hannah with our family. It's true that many of us really don't understand those with autism. We loved hearing Hannah's perspective; what a great sister she is.
I have a son who has autism, my wife and I have been taking classes on autism, we have learned to have much patience and a lot of extra love with him. The video is awesom.
I watch these and am touched by the message. Then I see that people down vote these videos. I am so confused by why someone would do that other than to just be negative. Anyhow I love to listen to these while I work.
I watched Hyrum at least ten times and it brought tears to my eyes each time, Hyrum reminded me of my grandson Mark who acts exactly the same but Mark can speak. I am an ex truck driver who doesn't cry very often. Thank you
I am also a sibling to a brother with autism. This is very well done and a great message about loving EVERYONE regardless of our differences. Thanks, Mormon Channel, for posting such a great message.
as a mom to three kids one being autistic...i loved this message of just absolute love....I know he loves me and I love him and thats all that matters.
This totally describes my life. My older brother is also autistic. This little girl has a long road ahead of her. The bullying at school never gets any better and people will never fully understand your brother. Hannah is amazing to love her brother so much and b his friend. Sometimes you will be his only friend.
AWESOME!!! The joy of Love , You can feel it, Now Share It.. Even if your rejected, remember our brother was rejected by men and he overcame and taught We can do even greater work's, Hyram Has what he need's in his loving Family.. Love pass it on!!!
I've been having a hard time. I've struggled with easy things like homework. I know why, but I can't share it with anyone else. This has comforted me in my trials. Thank you.
Dearest Hannah, you are a precious angel sent from Heavenly Father to help and protect your brave and special brother! Excellent video, it helps me and persuades me to follow Jesuschrist's example!!!
To those who made this video Thank you..it was not until my child was nearly grown we learned about her Autism & Other thongs. She has awaus had trouble fitting in, we did nit even know so we just raised her like the rest. She talks , functions reads very well, and is trying to live as an Adult. Not easy but the Lord ha helped.
Such a wonderful video. I love the perspective of the younger sibling, My older kids have a different view of their Autistic brother than their younger sister, and its been interesting to see the way they handle, and deal, and love.
And that should include those who cannot physically attend. Virtual church is a godsend (sad that some wards have discontinued it 😢), but even with that, for us that are homebound, caregivers, ect, it feels like looking through a one way window. We get to see hand hear about ward members, but they don't even see us. It only helps a little with my loneliness and isolation. Sometimes it reminds me of everything I've lost while seeing others live, that no one even notices or cares that I'm no longer there, ect, which makes me feel even worse. And I know there are many who feel the same as me. ❤
I have autism. It can be hard but I remember this. WE ARE ALL THE SAME AND REALITY IS A TH-cam VIDEO WITH A BUNCH OF LAUGHS AND MOMNTS THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
i use to be like Hyrum how i could not be able to talk and express my feelings to my mom and I would always go away from my mom but i would always find a way home.
Great vídeo, made me think I need to love and respect all my Brothers despite their problems, I wanna be like Jesus, yes, just like this little sister does.
Is there a way I could get in touch with this family? I have a little brother (14) with autism, also named Hyrum. I want to introduce my parents to this family because I think they would be able to support each other--dealing with an autistic child (brother, son, etc.) is a blessing, but it can be difficult at times. Please let me know.
The only way people with ASD will ever be respected by society is when they stand up on their own and advocate for themselves by controlling the means of their own representation. Only through coming together and separating from society, and becoming reliant only on themelves, can they ever hope to gain pride, self respect, respect from others and respect from society. Period.
I love this video!!! make me fell happy, because a can feel the spirit and think how can I help the people arround me!!1 Thank´s Lord!! I want to be like Jesus don´t you? =)
Autism means “you think things different.” How wise and tender she is. Bless her, and him too.

im so happy we have a youtube channel to watch these uplifting videos
This made me cry... I am father of two boys, the oldest also has autism. I hope his little brother feels the same about his big brother too.

So glad your son has such a great support system xx

This probably just made my month!
WOOO!! That was an explosion of tenderness and cuteness altogether
Another beautiful testimony "Difficult Questions that every LDS Mormon needs to answer" - may Jesus bless you
These are the ones who have a foothold on both sides of the veil.
We love you Hyrum and Hannah!

This warmed my heart! Thank you, beautiful Hannah. :)
Thank you Hannah for teaching us that we are all children of a loving heavenly father.
I have a son who has autism, my wife and I have been taking classes on autism, we have learned to have much patience and a lot of extra love with him. The video is awesom.
I know this family. They are wonderful people, and Hyrum is a huge part of that.

So close to my heart :-) love this video :-)

The bullying at school never gets any better and people will never fully understand your brother. Hannah is amazing to love her brother so much and b his friend. Sometimes you will be his only friend.
The first time I watched this video, I started to cry. As a latter day saint with ASD, this really pulled on my heart strings.
THIS IS SO TOUCHING. I HAVE A NEPHEW AND ONLY WISH THAT OTHERS WOULD TRY TO BE AS INNOCENT AND KIND AS THIS LITTLE "ANGEL"!
I love this! I thoroughly enjoyed having Hyrum in my class last year! He is an amazing little boy!
Love the message. I could certainly do better about refraining from judging and criticizing those around me and truly love others.
President Monson We Love Your Message!!
🙏🏻🙏🏻💙💙🙏🏻🙏🏻
AWESOME!!! The joy of Love ,
You can feel it, Now Share It..
Even if your rejected, remember our brother was rejected by men and he overcame and taught We can do even greater work's, Hyram

precious Hannah thank you for loving your brother
I've been having a hard time. I've struggled with easy things like homework. I know why, but I can't share it with anyone else. This has comforted me in my trials. Thank you.
Dearest Hannah, you are a precious angel sent from Heavenly Father to help and protect your brave and special brother! Excellent video, it helps me and persuades me to follow Jesuschrist's example!!!
Jared, I agree, I love how there is no language and judging in the comments. And this is an amazing story, it brought tears to my eyes.
May we all follow Hannah's wonderful ad
monition and listen to the words of a prophet of God.
Hannah, I want to be like Jesus too. Thank you. Hyrum is blessed to have you for a sister and best friend.
I have 2 brothers with autism. This video is so sweet.
Truly inspiring from the lips of a child.
Its nice to read comments that don't have profanity, that are spelled right and have a feel good feeling. Thank you all. :)
This is one of my favorite messages Because I understand.
