Agreed. I worry for her and others like her who will inevitably be taken advantage of by evil people especially when our world is nothing but evil and absolutely hopeless despair.
I think Bess should visit a senior home. She would bring so much joy to the seniors. She can dance tell them stories, her company would bring them joy and peace. She is also a great sister. I can imagine the joy of getting so many hugs and squeezings per minute! 🤩
I don't think my mom would be so excited. Not every senior wants screaming and whatnot in their spaces. I think it should be a situation where the seniors know what to expect and can request the visits. I think many seniors prefer animal visits or their own grandchildren. That's just my experience working in Long term care & now having my mom in LTC.
Hello everyone I usually don’t post but my name is Nora and I have William Syndrome and I am posting this because I want people to know that living with William Syndrome is very challenging sometimes because of the medical issues and social issues that I have faced and trust me it is no walk in the park I can tell you that much I would like to inform everyone that William Syndrome affects everyone differently so please don’t assume everyone is the same
i'm always glad to see people bringing up that one video or representation of a disorder is never the whole picture. my conditions are the same way, people think they're fun but they're actually really difficult. it's good that people want to focus on the happy parts to help with stigma, but we don't want people to think it's all fun and games either.
Thanks alot for saying that! I can only imagine the massive challenges that come with the medical side, and the fact that the world isn't always going to be as safe and nice as ppl with Williams syndrome would need it to be. Stay strong! And the better people are informed and familiarized with people that are different, the better it will get for us disabled folks. Also, the joy the interview with people that have Williams syndrome have brought into my depressed heart is absolutely priceless. I can only imagine just how many peoples days have been made so much brighter by meeting someone as cheerful as we've seen in these interviews. That alone can open people's hearts and minds to the other side of having disabilities.
Bless you Nora. We know, when people are being interviewed, they put on their best face. We know that life is both laughter and tears. I hope that your laughter is plentiful and your tears are few. 🌹❤😘
It’s nice to meet you Nora :D thank you for sharing your point of view If you don’t mind me asking, where do you see differences in how williams syndrome is being portrayed here and your personal experience?
Bess knowing how to calm herself down, and being proud of it is actually extremely intelligent, and is a skill/mindset that most adults don't even possess.
People think “the happy syndrome” is just someone being kind, but it causes delayed developement, problems with speech and balance, mental disability, and sometimes seizures. It’s not just about someone being happy.
Thank you for pointing this out. It was pretty well obvious that there were many more things going on with this child in the first 2 mins of the video and thankfully the family does go into a little detail throughout. I can see that this could greatly impact the entire family, system especially the younger sibling.
@@GoodPennyYHWHsaves I honestly got the feeling everything isn't all rainbows and sunshine in that home. I mean, it couldn't be. It would have to be exhausting.
@@GoodPennyYHWHsaves huh? Rogue looks completely happy and in love with his sister. Those hugs and kisses and laughter? The way they responded to the arguing question. All love.
I had a friend with Williams Syndrome and he was such a delight to be around. Always a breath of fresh air. When he passed away, I thought the world truly lost someone whose light shined so bright.
If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven. The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved. JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16 Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.' Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late. We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now... 'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen. 🎉🎉
No, the problem theoretically is , being focussed on happiness all the time is not realistic. Its not about the downsides of some things it's about being unaware or less avware of living in the balanced side. She will miss the part of life which is real. Ie sad and happy both. It's like not living in a real world.
@@sushs7991 it totally is a real world to live in. she just doesn't require sitting with the negatives in life in order to value the positives whereas most of us need that contrast, and that's cool as hell. every world view on planet earth has positives and negatives for survival and experience but i think being constantly happy and lovey is one of the more pleasant ways to be.
Those who prey on the vulnerable are a cancer in our society. It's horrifying to even think that people can be so vile. So we need to be vigilant! Guard them with our lives! 😐👊🏽
When Chris asked "Do you and your sister ever argue?" their response was to burst into laughter as though the thought of arguing with each other was a foreign concept (laughable). That just melted my heart. So Adorable
I was a little concerned for her brother, that it might be a little challenging for him to not be able to have his sister get it when he’s feeling the less happy emotions.
While I appreciate and understand the sentiment.. if everyone was happy like this.. we'd go extinct because we wouldn't be able to take care of ourselves. Just a reality check for you.
Imagine having multiple best friends forever….and yet being entirely genuine about each one. She really thinks of everyone as her best friends and *means* it.
@Privatehandledonotcontactwhat say you that its awful? Being sad all the time is worse than being happy all the time and i could definitely say that as a person with adhd
If you cried to this then I think your depression went no where and if went away from watching this 21 min video on TH-cam of someone you don't know we can safely say you have never had depression and have no idea of what it is. Just a person that thinks having a negative feeling, feeling sad, being bored, not wanting to do anything sometimes is depression and it's called being HUMAN!! It's annoying to people who really have depression as well and really damaged the help they get! People like you are damaging
@@ultrainstinctsign8249she's talking rubbish! And this is not a happy video so the fact she is crying in happiness is quite warped! This girls life is tragic
i used to take care of an older lady with williams syndrome. she was one of the most bubbily people i ever met. she was always so happy when i came in and always up for music and dancing. just about any genre she liked especially musicals. i could sing musicals all day with her and shed be perfectly fine with it. we got many strange looks doing our car kareoke but she didnt care, she was having the time of her life when id take her out.
@@pantlesshobo2841 yep. no longer taking care of her (i moved) but i do go see her when i get the chance. always so bubbily when i pop in and catches me up on everyone
she's absolutely on a higher plane, she speaks of gratitude, love, playfulnes and angels, she also reffered to chris as a teacher and i don't think that is a coincidence
It amazes me how good he is at interacting with the guests on the show. He is respectful, kind, and fun but knows how to address serious issues too. Just wow.
He used to work with special needs children full time, so he already knows how to interact with special needs children even when they are non verbal. Chris is a one of a kind gem in the special needs community💜
@@misshipster98 Some of us still prefer special needs. My needs are special but I am very able, just in different ways. My disabilities are physical and I can't function in most of society, for example. But if I didn't have my physical problems, I would be able to work, but I am still special needs. Not everyone who has brain differences is disabled. It's an individual vocabulary preference to describe themselves. Special needs does not equal disabled. Special needs just means that an individual human needs different levels of care from others.
@@poiwytlee you explained that so well and you are so right! I have a special needs daughter but she's not disabled. She just needs extra care due to her medical history and conditions and I so appreciate the way you put it into words. Thank you so much!!
Cant believe how smart she is. She said I'm proud of knowing how to calm down... Im 26 and really dont know how to calm down. This girl is really sweet and smart, I'm proud of her too she really touched my heart ❤
I have a client who has Williams syndrome and he is amazing. When I cut his hair we talk about whatever he wants and he always reminds me that he’s happy to see me and he loves me. I’ve never looked forward to seeing my clients as much as I do for him. He is a gem
Some of us pay good money to feel that way for an hour or so and then end up with a crippling addiction that makes us very depressed along with a host of other negative emotions/feelings. I envy this young girl. Puts a smile on my face. Sadly the world is a dark place for someone like her. She must be protected! Sooner or later the world would try to take advantage and abuse her kindness. If only we all could have this condition, what a world that would be!!!
@@BalboaBaggins the phrase “literally” makes sense in my comment, her smile IS literally contagious otherwise why would have I smiled ? Maybe you should look up the word contagious, the definition also states emotion
FR though-like what’s your problem..? I think right now it’s great, she brings a lot of joy to her family, as clear. But I am worried about her future.
Absolutely Love Bess and her family, I, too am a very happy person and I love to laugh. Even though I'm 63, I can relate with Bess because I have not lost my connection to my "inner child" that lives in happiness and joy. Many Blessings to this beautiful family.
I don’t care if it’s a disorder, or syndrome, or what not, she cheers me up!! It’s like therapy watching her be so happy like that. She’s really precious too.
Chris is such a legend, a man has taken his choice in life to be friendly, kind sharing knowledge to support a better world by giving a voice to these people who are just like us even though the world doesn't always regard them as equals. Keep up the great work man
@@LubovMalova-xt7mx And that's why we have the second amendment in the United States. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
@@LubovMalova-xt7mxI think he was saying we need more people with this kind of love in their hearts in the world... 13:07 is where the Mom says Bess feels love so much more than the rest of us and I believe she truly does, we could all learn something from this beautiful little human being
As someone with depression who is on antidepressants I admire her energy so much she’s the kind of friend I’ve always wanted in my life almost feel like I don’t deserve her as a friend because of how lovely she is
This child is a shining example of what's morbidly lacking with humanity. She is destined for something colossally important for humanity's future. Keep your spirit shining lovely little lady.
After working in ABA therapy for several years, I've come to learn that neurodivergent children truly are a gift sent from God to teach us lessons in patience, humility and compassion.
I love the way Chris interacts with, responds to, and answers Bess. He has such an open and generous way of communicating with her. Imagine if everyone had even half of Bess' joy... the world would be a better place ❤
@@missvida6251 I'm not particularly religious or spiritual, but I truly believe she is an angel from another world. She's the only person I think about when I'm depressed or wanting to end it all.
I consider the people with Williams Syndrome to be the misplaced angels, who ended up on earth instead of a greater realm. They're truly amazing individuals, so cheerful and imaginative.
coming from someone who has chronic depression and has lost a lot of zest for living, her happiness and love for life is so incredibly healing. keep taking good care of your family and keep being a good girl, alright, bess? we love you, honey.
A girl I went to middle and high school with has Williams Syndrome. She was fully accepted by everyone and was such a joy to be around. There were so many times in those years of growing up that it was easy to feel sad or frustrated, but her positivity was so infectious. I hope she's doing well.
Bess wanted to send a message of love and thanks for all the kind words and messages ! 🙏🏻💖 She is overjoyed at the magnitude of people who have shared how her words and laughter have touched their lives. ☀️ Bess is a very happy child - but also faces sad times / bullying / hard days like the rest of us. It’s amazing people like Chris and Alyssa and people like YOU that help her to share about her journey and support her in knowing it’s -ok- to simply be Bess! ☀️ Brother Rogue feels so included and appreciated for his role as her “big” little brother - he smiled from ear to ear reading about how much people could see his love for his sister. As a mom and dad who have slept in ICU beds - driven to the ER at all hours of the night - been to countless doctors - physical and speech therapy appointments- we want you to know just how MUCH seeing the love for our girl has made us see the world really IS a good place - like Bess says ! 💖🌳 🌎 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Bess will be posting on her Instagram page - @gobessgo #gobessgo @specialbooksbyspecialkids
Thank you for sharing her story. I wish nothing but the best for you and your family. Also, I adore the name Rogue! Ive never heard that used as a name before and its awesome
I am a 25 year old guy who has a 21 year old brother with autism. Bess and Rogue are honestly inspirational in their care and love for eachother and makes me appreciate my brother even more. Thank you guys for sharing your story. Much love to you all. Thank you for being great parents. Your love and care reminds me of my own parents who support us and our other brother to the end of the earth. I appreciate you. I’m excited to see my brother this weekend.

My daughter has Williams Syndrome. She is just the most amazing blessing and changes everyone who knows her for the better. She has many (MANY) physical disabilities along with her other disabilities. She is so strong and faces challenge after challenge with such a beautiful ability. She is extremely friendly also, and makes everyone who meets her feel loved, appreciated, valued and seen. She’s never gone somewhere and not made a friend. That being said, she doesn’t always feel happy. She struggles with anxiety and also gets angry fairly easily. We’re working on coping skills with her for when she’s feeling angry and overwhelmed. I showed her this video and she just absolutely loved seeing someone like her. My daughter is hard to place when it comes to where she’s at (is she more like a toddler or a school age child, etc.) She’s 16 but in many ways she’s like a 3-4 year old and in other ways she’s like an 8-9 year old. My daughter has an extreme form of Williams Syndrome according to Stanford specialists. In fact they documented and filmed her in order to teach specialists about Williams Syndrome and it’s many complexities. Not too long ago she received a wish from Make A Wish which was absolutely mind blowing and precious beyond words. To this day she STILL talks to everyone about it and it continues to bring her so much joy. Each day with her is a gift that none of us takes for granted. She has several heart conditions and has already had to undergo major open heart surgery. She actually almost didn’t survive it-so the fact that she is here with us really IS a gift. The Drs are trying to hold off on any future surgeries as they aren’t sure she will survive another one. The Lord has been good to us and they have been able to hold off on all of them for the time being. My little Olyvia is my joy. Our family has been shaped so much by our little firecracker. I wish she didn’t have to experience all the pain she goes through daily (major GI issues, and joint/bone issues, along with hyper sensitive hearing which causes normal sounds to be painful for her). But as far as who she is and how she interacts with the world and the people around her, I wouldn’t change that for anything (with the exception of trying to help her understand that not everyone is safe to be friends with).
Thank you for sharing I very much appreciate the perspective. I think as er nurse there's so many things we don't see often and I try to consume this kind of media for further perspective and understanding of potential patient populations I could come across so I just wanted to thank you so much for taking the time 🙏
Just imagine a kind of society of parallel evolution where all people have this genetic disorder. A parallel universe where this was the normal way of being. How different would everything be. Probably science, society, technology would be way different too. So much different. Without the wars and stuff too. Different technological evolution
@@XY-ep8uz I mean I get you don't genuinely mean that if everyone had this disability we would be better off, but I don't even think that would happen regardless of the downsides of the disability. I mean not to be pro war or violence or anything but practically every innovation in history has come from conflict so our science and technology would definitely be very different, we wouldn't really be anywhere near where we are.
It's actually not normal to be happy all the time...some very beautiful and necessary things have been born out of frustration, anger, sadness...not very intelligent to think the world would benefit from everyone being happy 100% of the time.
I know a child with williams syndrome. To say that she is absolutely delighted about everything is an understatement. She brings joy ro everyone around her.
My Uncle has William's syndrome! They told his parents that he wouldn't live past 8....now he's in his 50's! He's nice to everyone and always seems to happy, somehow even remaining optimistic after his father passed away. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, William's syndrome tends to come with a ton of medical issues and could be very challenging. His life growing up was also difficult due to the social stigma that he faced and the lack of understanding/compassion towards those with disabilities.
That was really nice to read thanks for sharing about your Uncle :). It's important to spread awareness, people go through so much yet a lot would assume this condition was just pure happiness without realising the social and health stuff could be hard. I'm so glad your uncle is thriving in his 50s though :)
Thank you Chris for making such amazing content. I have Pfeiffers syndrome and being able to see myself and people like me here is incredible. Thank you SBSK!
I have pfieffer syndrome too! I have yet to meet someone else who does but I definitely love watching this channel and seeing others who have similar conditions.
This girl is on a completely higher frequency that we can only hope to tap into a fraction of. A physical manifestation of joy. Bless her heart, and protect her. Her mom definitely understands the assignment too. Sending love!
When she said, "angels put fairy dust in my eyes" I cried. That melted my calloused heart. So sweet. Then she said she likes honey mustard lol...such a cutie! God protect her and bless her!
I have autism and am 28 and her knowing how to calm down and things like that is very smart and makes me proud of her too. I know autism isn’t the same but I struggle with calming down and I’m happy breathing and counting works for her. I wish Bess and her family the best of luck
I'm not on a spectrum that I'm aware of, but I've struggled with depression & anxiety all my life. I'm proud of you for finding the tools & the strength to help deal with the struggles. God bless you hun. ❤
@@Parrotgirl-tattoo same here horrible depression anxiety bipolar disorder and PTSD. Knowing how to cope is a huge part of the battle- I hope you are doing well today my friend! I'm 41 years old and autism wasn't that's highly diagnosed when I was a child, I do have a lot of similarities that makes me wonder if I am on the spectrum-but I am not one to self-diagnose. Anyways my friend- I hope you are doing well today ❤️🙏🏼💪🏼👻
@@DetroitFettyghost FettyG! Happy to see you here, my friend! I didn't know you watched SBSK, I should've known I guess, you ARE a good person! Lol! Be good FettyG🤟
I use to work with a "young" lady with Williams Syndrome... she was a sweetheart and I loved her running down the hall when she heard my voice and yell "There he is, there he is." She was so amazing. I miss my friend.
My nephew has William’s Syndrome. He had an amazing vocabulary from a young age! He makes me feel so loved. He always gives me tons of compliments & says he loves me. When they were doing the “bah bah bah” thing and Chris was getting sadder & sadder she brought it back up to happiness.
I figured he wanted to understand her potential to emote on a scale , and she wasn’t as willing ( at least in that moment ) to go low vibe , or express it , granted there are so many variables even outside of the Williams , you have that she’s aware she’s filming , she’s genuinely excited to meet her new friend , and she genuinely having a blast - so , it’s a lot !
Chris has such a good skill of managing to take her answers that dont make sense to the question and being able to adapt it anyhow. It might seem small but it's a skill that most people should have to better connect with a/their child
She is adorable! I am the mother of a boy with Williams syndrome whose smile never leaves his face, he loves music and loves everyone, doesn't differentiate between good and bad, loves everyone and radiates light wherever he is.
Her joy is absolutely contagious! She is the SWEETEST little girl I've ever seen! What a treasure and blessing for these lucky parents!!! This girl has a legit superpower.
It must be an empty and frustrating experience for him at time. His sibling unable to truly empathize, and what death is there within the relationship?
I love when she and Chris were making silly sounds and Chris began to fake cry. She immediately and very clearly turned it around into something positive
I feel like people with Williams and Down syndrome are how people are supposed to be or how people should be. They’re happy, kind, forgiving, loving, do their best. The best human beings on the planet.
I have been in an insanely dark place for several weeks. I’ll be totally honest, it’s gotten to the point that I don’t want to be here anymore. This beautiful interview has just pulled me out of such a dark place. Bess, you are such a beautiful soul. I hope you never lose anything about the beautiful person you are. You’re going to make such an impact on others lives. I feel so HAPPY after watching you be yourself. Keep being you 🥰
all i can think about is how happy this girl is going to make so many people! she's going to make so many people smile, and feel good about themselves, and feel like they have someone on their side!!! she's such a gift to this world
@@Nuphs8thats a crazy statement and wrong, its a real disorder in a persons brain, working out can help but it doesnt cure depression. i hope you learn to have empathy for things you will never understand.
I strive to be this unapologetically happy in life. I know that this is classified as a “disability” or “disease” but in my eyes, this is such a blessing. There is no such thing as too much positivity or happiness. This girl is such a bundle of joy, keep her heart pure and protected. 🌷
Only problem is people tend to get angry at happy people. I never could figure that out. Walk into work happy, smiling, and saying good morning and people get mad.
Well shes just one of the most adorable souls ive ever seen. I wish i could be her friend and protect her from all the evil and corruption in the world.
Oh my gosh - when Bess responded on calming down - I GOT IT! That resonnated with me and to see and hear her do it and then to hear her say it makes her feel proud --- gosh, I teared up! As an adult, this precious gem of a girl taught me!! What a beautiful little girl!!
Man i love how chris matches his interviewees energy. Its gotta be so much fun for these kids who otherwise are probably looked past and ignored. Chris and alyssa are doing good things out here ❤😊
Could we also appreciate her mother for her constant support and unconstitutional love, i mean she is an angel herself. She deserves all the love and light she's doing for her daughter and the community. The patience! The ability to comprehend! The empathy she carries❤
I was born with a severe form of Marfan Syndrome and am living an amazing life turning 23 in May. Love seeing you show how people with genetic differences should be treated, as our best friends. Compassion is the greatest strength of humanity that makes us so successful as a species
Syndrome or not. This girl is what the world should look at and strive to become. She knows the meaning of life. An angel 💚💜💚 . The parents should be so proud.
this is oddly specific lol but i feel like shes one of those people that you talk to in a restaurant once and randomly wonder how theyre doing for the next 20 years. cant tell you how many times me or one of my family members will say something like "man, i wonder how that little girl that started talking to us at taco bell that one time in 2006 is doing now" XD
Chris is such a sweet kind adult and the way he always interacts with these people really touches my heart. I’m neurodivergent and a trauma survivor and we need more people like him ❤ thank you for helping tell these peoples story.
Ignorance is bliss, as someone who struggles with depression almost everyday. I am extremely envious of this family. She is a miracle child. Thank you for making me smile!
This disorder also affects the cardiovascular system and causes learning difficulties. Too much of something is never a good thing, she may struggle connecting with people in the future bc she may not be able to understand them when they get upset
The lows help us appreciate the highs in life even more. The whole range of human emotions are beautiful. As someone who has CPSTD from childhood abuse, I understand the depression & anxiety aspect but also being empathetic and able to understand what others are feeling and act appropriately is a blessing.
As someone with clinical depression.. I dont.. this girl is just as unwell as us, she has an oxycotin overload, which comes with its own mental health issues and difficulties.. Social cue difficulties.. vunerability to strangers who could hurt her or take advantage of her and her innocence.. I wouldnt want fo be her..

I hope the world is as kind to her as she is to it.
What a lovely wish I love it and wish the same ❤
I doubt it but at least it's a better world with her in it.
Amen!!
If everyone was like her, they would be.
This kid is too pure for a world like this...
I wish I could go to a planet that just has people like her
It would get annoying real fast lol@@govholocaustal4432
Agreed. I worry for her and others like her who will inevitably be taken advantage of by evil people especially when our world is nothing but evil and absolutely hopeless despair.
She's a sinner like the rest of us.
@@ChrisYarzab oh look, a bridge troll
I think Bess should visit a senior home. She would bring so much joy to the seniors. She can dance tell them stories, her company would bring them joy and peace. She is also a great sister. I can imagine the joy of getting so many hugs and squeezings per minute! 🤩
Love this idea
I agree, volunteering would brighten up alot of elderly, sick children, even animals.
And she does it so naturally and sooooo effortlessly... 😊
That is a beautiful idea.❤️
I don't think my mom would be so excited. Not every senior wants screaming and whatnot in their spaces. I think it should be a situation where the seniors know what to expect and can request the visits.
I think many seniors prefer animal visits or their own grandchildren. That's just my experience working in Long term care & now having my mom in LTC.
Despite it's a danger for her because it makes her vulnerable - It's so wholesome to see her happiness.
Good thing she has an equally sweet brother who I'm sure will look out for her the rest of their lives.
I wouldn’t say being nice makes you vulnerable
Maybe even Mick Jagger has this adorable syndrome
@@xplodingkatz yeah it does 😅 because the world ain't as kind as her
It's a brave strength to be vulnerable in this world imo ❤

i'm always glad to see people bringing up that one video or representation of a disorder is never the whole picture. my conditions are the same way, people think they're fun but they're actually really difficult. it's good that people want to focus on the happy parts to help with stigma, but we don't want people to think it's all fun and games either.
Thanks alot for saying that! I can only imagine the massive challenges that come with the medical side, and the fact that the world isn't always going to be as safe and nice as ppl with Williams syndrome would need it to be.
Stay strong!
And the better people are informed and familiarized with people that are different, the better it will get for us disabled folks.
Also, the joy the interview with people that have Williams syndrome have brought into my depressed heart is absolutely priceless. I can only imagine just how many peoples days have been made so much brighter by meeting someone as cheerful as we've seen in these interviews. That alone can open people's hearts and minds to the other side of having disabilities.
Bless you Nora. We know, when people are being interviewed, they put on their best face. We know that life is both laughter and tears. I hope that your laughter is plentiful and your tears are few. 🌹❤😘
Thank you for this information. I like learning about Williams syndrome so I can understand people better. Wishing you all the best!
It’s nice to meet you Nora :D thank you for sharing your point of view
If you don’t mind me asking, where do you see differences in how williams syndrome is being portrayed here and your personal experience?
Bess knowing how to calm herself down, and being proud of it is actually extremely intelligent, and is a skill/mindset that most adults don't even possess.
Yea! I’m 25 and still working on it so she should def be proud
She’s extremely intelligent for her age and condition. I was surprised with her vocabulary!
Exactly
That was really impressive. She was clearly calm after counting.
yup
*keep this little girl safe and protected by every threat in the world she is too nice and innocent*
lol Whoa there, little fella.
@@PANZERFAUST90wdym
You a kid to
😊😊❤❤❤❤❤@@PANZERFAUST90
well I guess you would have her never become an adult
People think “the happy syndrome” is just someone being kind, but it causes delayed developement, problems with speech and balance, mental disability, and sometimes seizures. It’s not just about someone being happy.
Thank you for pointing this out. It was pretty well obvious that there were many more things going on with this child in the first 2 mins of the video and thankfully the family does go into a little detail throughout. I can see that this could greatly impact the entire family, system especially the younger sibling.
@@GoodPennyYHWHsaves I honestly got the feeling everything isn't all rainbows and sunshine in that home. I mean, it couldn't be. It would have to be exhausting.
@@BebeDaull Oh I agree. Exhausting. I see it in the face of the little brother.
@@GoodPennyYHWHsaves huh? Rogue looks completely happy and in love with his sister. Those hugs and kisses and laughter? The way they responded to the arguing question. All love.
@@bwingbwinggwiyomi I'm a psychologist, I look a little deeper than emotional response. Thank you.
I had a friend with Williams Syndrome and he was such a delight to be around. Always a breath of fresh air. When he passed away, I thought the world truly lost someone whose light shined so bright.
😭❤️
I think God sends us a Special child once in a while to remind us of what we outta be! 🤷♀️
@blossom1643 Amen! God is good❤
Your comment was all it took...Tearing up here.
If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven.
The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved.
JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.'
Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late.
We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now...
'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.

I guess one of the downsides with such syndrome is that you became too friendly with some folks you should totally be not
In the current society, thats very bad. People tend to try to take advantage of people.
No, the problem theoretically is , being focussed on happiness all the time is not realistic. Its not about the downsides of some things it's about being unaware or less avware of living in the balanced side. She will miss the part of life which is real. Ie sad and happy both. It's like not living in a real world.
@@sushs7991 Who's to say what's "realistic"? Her reality is just as valid as everyone else's, even if they're nothing alike.
@@sushs7991 it totally is a real world to live in. she just doesn't require sitting with the negatives in life in order to value the positives whereas most of us need that contrast, and that's cool as hell. every world view on planet earth has positives and negatives for survival and experience but i think being constantly happy and lovey is one of the more pleasant ways to be.
Those who prey on the vulnerable are a cancer in our society. It's horrifying to even think that people can be so vile. So we need to be vigilant! Guard them with our lives! 😐👊🏽
When Chris asked "Do you and your sister ever argue?" their response was to burst into laughter as though the thought of arguing with each other was a foreign concept (laughable). That just melted my heart. So Adorable
And yet, I thought just the opposite. I thought they fought like cats and dogs (based on their reactions). I was so confused. 🤣
@@roryjamesobst why would you think that?
@@roryjamesobst you are a miserable person
I was a little concerned for her brother, that it might be a little challenging for him to not be able to have his sister get it when he’s feeling the less happy emotions.
She absolutely understands when Rogue has hard days or moments. She likes to give him hugs and listen to his feelings / thoughts. 🙏🏻💖☺️☺️
Imagine if everyone was so happy, the world would be a better place.
big time.
I mean ehhh
God is what we're missing
While I appreciate and understand the sentiment.. if everyone was happy like this.. we'd go extinct because we wouldn't be able to take care of ourselves.
Just a reality check for you.
@@Yeshua.Loves.You.god dosent make everything better
Imagine having multiple best friends forever….and yet being entirely genuine about each one. She really thinks of everyone as her best friends and *means* it.

@Privatehandledonotcontactwhat say you that its awful? Being sad all the time is worse than being happy all the time and i could definitely say that as a person with adhd
@@logicss2893what was said that's was awful? It's true he tried to see of she can do like cry or sad and she didn't..u was a statement not bullying

They do get sad and get anxiety. I was watching other ppl's children who have that issue.
She should voice act for an animated kids show. Her voice is SO nice!!
Land before time.... *cries for Judith Barsi, voice of ducky*
Agreed!
Yesss!❤
This is true
So lbnlxious
She is so friendly, I wish I had a friend like her. Too pure for this world.
Watching this girl made all my depression melt away so fast, it actually made me cry and i dont cry. She is very powerful
Твоя депрессия вернулась спустя пару часов?
how did it make you cry if you dont cey`?
@@ultrainstinctsign8249…
If you cried to this then I think your depression went no where and if went away from watching this 21 min video on TH-cam of someone you don't know we can safely say you have never had depression and have no idea of what it is. Just a person that thinks having a negative feeling, feeling sad, being bored, not wanting to do anything sometimes is depression and it's called being HUMAN!! It's annoying to people who really have depression as well and really damaged the help they get! People like you are damaging
@@ultrainstinctsign8249she's talking rubbish! And this is not a happy video so the fact she is crying in happiness is quite warped! This girls life is tragic
i used to take care of an older lady with williams syndrome. she was one of the most bubbily people i ever met. she was always so happy when i came in and always up for music and dancing. just about any genre she liked especially musicals. i could sing musicals all day with her and shed be perfectly fine with it. we got many strange looks doing our car kareoke but she didnt care, she was having the time of her life when id take her out.
That’s so sweet 💜
I love that story
is she still okay?
@@pantlesshobo2841 yep. no longer taking care of her (i moved) but i do go see her when i get the chance. always so bubbily when i pop in and catches me up on everyone
Wow you are so lucky! And she was lucky that you had so much fun with her. What a great friend to have!
She's melting my heart. I hope no one ever hurts her. Ever.
Unfortunately, there will be those snakes that take advantage of her kindness.
Sadly it will happen, but the good point: She wont care about it and ask the next good soul with a smile.
Of she always say 'yes' why would some one hurt hur?
Nothing wrong with being friendly.
I pity any person who hurts her. They would absolutely be public enemy number one!
She an earth angel, such infectious happiness, a curse on anyone who does wrong by her,
she's absolutely on a higher plane, she speaks of gratitude, love, playfulnes and angels, she also reffered to chris as a teacher and i don't think that is a coincidence
It is not its a brainwash
I completely agree!
I thought he was a teacher. Her teacher.
:/
Wholesome! Also ….. Rogue for a name? Awesome!
It amazes me how good he is at interacting with the guests on the show. He is respectful, kind, and fun but knows how to address serious issues too. Just wow.
He used to work with special needs children full time, so he already knows how to interact with special needs children even when they are non verbal. Chris is a one of a kind gem in the special needs community💜
@@drea6717 just use the word disabled.
@@misshipster98 Some of us still prefer special needs. My needs are special but I am very able, just in different ways. My disabilities are physical and I can't function in most of society, for example. But if I didn't have my physical problems, I would be able to work, but I am still special needs. Not everyone who has brain differences is disabled. It's an individual vocabulary preference to describe themselves.
Special needs does not equal disabled. Special needs just means that an individual human needs different levels of care from others.
@@poiwytlee you explained that so well and you are so right! I have a special needs daughter but she's not disabled. She just needs extra care due to her medical history and conditions and I so appreciate the way you put it into words. Thank you so much!!
He's amazing 😇
aside from how lovely this girl is seriously, I really wanted to mention how nice it is that the interviewer is matching her vibes 100%😭
He's an absolute gem ❤ he always makes the people feel comfortable around him❤
Yeah he seems to bring respect to the table - or couch. Maybe he has some social degree.
He always does so well with all the subjects of his videos
This guy is amazing
He used to teach special needs kids, that’s how he’s so good at it.
This person interviewing her is so understanding and so genuine. He really did a very job
Cant believe how smart she is. She said I'm proud of knowing how to calm down... Im 26 and really dont know how to calm down. This girl is really sweet and smart, I'm proud of her too she really touched my heart ❤
It’s easy for her to calm down and it can be hard for people without this syndrome to do the same, as I understand.
I have a client who has Williams syndrome and he is amazing. When I cut his hair we talk about whatever he wants and he always reminds me that he’s happy to see me and he loves me. I’ve never looked forward to seeing my clients as much as I do for him. He is a gem
❤
Adorable ❤
Love it! :) God bless you and that child. 🙏🏻
how old is he?
This child is the physical manifestation of joy itself, protect her at all costs
Amen 🌹
100%
So proclaims Lord Alpaca! It shall be done!
Right
Some of us pay good money to feel that way for an hour or so and then end up with a crippling addiction that makes us very depressed along with a host of other negative emotions/feelings. I envy this young girl. Puts a smile on my face.
Sadly the world is a dark place for someone like her. She must be protected! Sooner or later the world would try to take advantage and abuse her kindness. If only we all could have this condition, what a world that would be!!!
@Cakebabyy They literally did speak for their self, and what they didn't is objective fact.
I also drew a parallel with the substances in my head. Imagine that you are high your whole life.
Her happiness is literally contagious I’m smiling, I have been so sad today
Most kids today overuse and don't know what the word "literally" means or stands for.
@@BalboaBagginsyea but that was literally a good example of how to use it correctly... unlike this 😅
@@BalboaBaggins the phrase “literally” makes sense in my comment, her smile IS literally contagious otherwise why would have I smiled ? Maybe you should look up the word contagious, the definition also states emotion
I think balboa was just stating a general fact about kids and that word, not about the specific comment..
Stay strong ❤
You can tell her brother is a sweet, kind little boy
He's so cute 🥹 both of them are
He is precious! His sister is teaching him a lot about love. 🥰
I know, he's so happy. I wish I had had a sister like that!
He's 4
That tolerates hugs and cuddles quite well lol 😆
*Protect her at all costs*
ummm i get ur trying to be nice but lets use common sense
Common sense?

@@sugarhiccup2584 what?

Absolutely Love Bess and her family, I, too am a very happy person and I love to laugh. Even though I'm 63, I can relate with Bess because I have not lost my connection to my "inner child" that lives in happiness and joy. Many Blessings to this beautiful family.
Found myself crying throughout this video. She's so precious. I hope she's only met with kindness in this world
Me too. She is precious ❤
Me three. I was looking for this comment because seeing how happy she is with her brother made me cry
Same ❤😢
I don’t care if it’s a disorder, or syndrome, or what not, she cheers me up!! It’s like therapy watching her be so happy like that. She’s really precious too.
That's great for you. I'm not sure she will ever be able to take care of herself. Maybe they have enough money to set up a trust for her.
They seem like such a sweet family!
it is! I was smiling watching her. Sweetest kid.

I find myself giggling and laughing with her ❤
Chris is such a legend, a man has taken his choice in life to be friendly, kind sharing knowledge to support a better world by giving a voice to these people who are just like us even though the world doesn't always regard them as equals. Keep up the great work man

I consider the people with Williams Syndrome to be the misplaced angels, who ended up on earth instead of a greater realm. They're truly amazing individuals, so cheerful and imaginative.
They’re not angels. They are vulnerable humans who have neurodevelopmental problems caused by a loss of genetic material.

A girl I went to middle and high school with has Williams Syndrome. She was fully accepted by everyone and was such a joy to be around. There were so many times in those years of growing up that it was easy to feel sad or frustrated, but her positivity was so infectious. I hope she's doing well.

Bess wanted to send a message of love and thanks for all the kind words and messages ! 🙏🏻💖
She is overjoyed at the magnitude of people who have shared how her words and laughter have touched their lives. ☀️
Bess is a very happy child - but also faces sad times / bullying / hard days like the rest of us. It’s amazing people like Chris and Alyssa and people like YOU that help her to share about her journey and support her in knowing it’s -ok- to simply be Bess! ☀️
Brother Rogue feels so included and appreciated for his role as her “big” little brother - he smiled from ear to ear reading about how much people could see his love for his sister.
As a mom and dad who have slept in ICU beds - driven to the ER at all hours of the night - been to countless doctors - physical and speech therapy appointments- we want you to know just how MUCH seeing the love for our girl has made us see the world really IS a good place - like Bess says ! 💖🌳 🌎 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Bess will be posting on her Instagram page - @gobessgo

Aww 😊
What is William syndrome can someone please explain
Bro she's like literally the luckiest person in the world to be happy every single momment, but that makes me wonder how she handles serious times
I think she mentioned in the interview that she focuses on her breathing & counts 1,2,3,4. She says it helps her to relax.
My daughter has Williams Syndrome. She is just the most amazing blessing and changes everyone who knows her for the better. She has many (MANY) physical disabilities along with her other disabilities. She is so strong and faces challenge after challenge with such a beautiful ability. She is extremely friendly also, and makes everyone who meets her feel loved, appreciated, valued and seen. She’s never gone somewhere and not made a friend. That being said, she doesn’t always feel happy. She struggles with anxiety and also gets angry fairly easily. We’re working on coping skills with her for when she’s feeling angry and overwhelmed. I showed her this video and she just absolutely loved seeing someone like her. My daughter is hard to place when it comes to where she’s at (is she more like a toddler or a school age child, etc.) She’s 16 but in many ways she’s like a 3-4 year old and in other ways she’s like an 8-9 year old. My daughter has an extreme form of Williams Syndrome according to Stanford specialists. In fact they documented and filmed her in order to teach specialists about Williams Syndrome and it’s many complexities. Not too long ago she received a wish from Make A Wish which was absolutely mind blowing and precious beyond words. To this day she STILL talks to everyone about it and it continues to bring her so much joy. Each day with her is a gift that none of us takes for granted. She has several heart conditions and has already had to undergo major open heart surgery. She actually almost didn’t survive it-so the fact that she is here with us really IS a gift. The Drs are trying to hold off on any future surgeries as they aren’t sure she will survive another one. The Lord has been good to us and they have been able to hold off on all of them for the time being. My little Olyvia is my joy. Our family has been shaped so much by our little firecracker. I wish she didn’t have to experience all the pain she goes through daily (major GI issues, and joint/bone issues, along with hyper sensitive hearing which causes normal sounds to be painful for her). But as far as who she is and how she interacts with the world and the people around her, I wouldn’t change that for anything (with the exception of trying to help her understand that not everyone is safe to be friends with).
Sending so much love, hope, and peace. You are blessed by God, indeed.
thank you for sharing. She sounds like a huge inspiration and sharing her story inspires me.
I'm so sry she has so many struggles. Give her my love.
Thank you for sharing I very much appreciate the perspective. I think as er nurse there's so many things we don't see often and I try to consume this kind of media for further perspective and understanding of potential patient populations I could come across so I just wanted to thank you so much for taking the time 🙏
So precious 😭
She's probably the only normal human on the planet honestly. So beautiful
Just imagine a kind of society of parallel evolution where all people have this genetic disorder. A parallel universe where this was the normal way of being. How different would everything be. Probably science, society, technology would be way different too. So much different. Without the wars and stuff too. Different technological evolution

@@KooL_D With a mean IQ of 69 I'm not sure we would have gotten very far.

It's actually not normal to be happy all the time...some very beautiful and necessary things have been born out of frustration, anger, sadness...not very intelligent to think the world would benefit from everyone being happy 100% of the time.
I know a child with williams syndrome. To say that she is absolutely delighted about everything is an understatement. She brings joy ro everyone around her.

“My mom is SO CUTE!” Oh my gosh! I love how much she loves her mom! She’s so sweet and lovely and has such a great family.
My Uncle has William's syndrome! They told his parents that he wouldn't live past 8....now he's in his 50's! He's nice to everyone and always seems to happy, somehow even remaining optimistic after his father passed away. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, William's syndrome tends to come with a ton of medical issues and could be very challenging. His life growing up was also difficult due to the social stigma that he faced and the lack of understanding/compassion towards those with disabilities.
Congrats to your uncle !!
That was really nice to read thanks for sharing about your Uncle :). It's important to spread awareness, people go through so much yet a lot would assume this condition was just pure happiness without realising the social and health stuff could be hard. I'm so glad your uncle is thriving in his 50s though :)
Ohhh there’s health complications? That’s make sense, I wondering why this would be classified as a “disorder”, it seems like a fantastic way to be

She still kicking it?
My nephew has William’s Syndrome. He had an amazing vocabulary from a young age! He makes me feel so loved. He always gives me tons of compliments & says he loves me. When they were doing the “bah bah bah” thing and Chris was getting sadder & sadder she brought it back up to happiness.
I figured he wanted to understand her potential to emote on a scale , and she wasn’t as willing ( at least in that moment ) to go low vibe , or express it , granted there are so many variables even outside of the Williams , you have that she’s aware she’s filming , she’s genuinely excited to meet her new friend , and she genuinely having a blast - so , it’s a lot !
Chris has such a good skill of managing to take her answers that dont make sense to the question and being able to adapt it anyhow. It might seem small but it's a skill that most people should have to better connect with a/their child
I don’t know if you’re still reading the comments, but Bess just made me a happier person. Please thank her for me. 😊😊😊
“angels keep me safe” she’s such a precious soul!
I love the fact her disability is being happy. It brings joy to my heart. Kids are the joy of the world!!!
She is adorable! I am the mother of a boy with Williams syndrome whose smile never leaves his face, he loves music and loves everyone, doesn't differentiate between good and bad, loves everyone and radiates light wherever he is.
I can imagine how amazing it is to have someone with Williams syndrome as their personality traits make them extremely cute
@@GTAManRCRit's not amazing to have a syndrome, sadness and anger are parts of life completely normal!
My little brother has willisms
@@OctoTrials Greetings for him!
@@itsallaboutthEfootball So is hatred and crimes huh?
Her joy is absolutely contagious! She is the SWEETEST little girl I've ever seen! What a treasure and blessing for these lucky parents!!! This girl has a legit superpower.
Rogue is so lucky, imagine having a direct influence in your life other than your parents that is constantly positive and only gives love to you
I wouldn't even put parents. Many don't care about their kids
@@mindyourbusinessxoxoTrue
It must be an empty and frustrating experience for him at time. His sibling unable to truly empathize, and what death is there within the relationship?
It is a lit6of PRESSURE on Rogue
These individuals with Williams Syndrome are so easy to fall in love with and have such radiant personalities. Its a joy to watch these interviews.
yes.
I love when she and Chris were making silly sounds and Chris began to fake cry. She immediately and very clearly turned it around into something positive
That was my thought as well she paused for a brief second and was like nope I don't want to cry 😊
Timestamp?
@@HowieRaps 4:34
@@peterjuff thanks Peter 🎉❤️
4:36 she actually couldn't imitate the crying part
Omg I’ve never wanted to protect someone so bad in my life. She has a heart of gold. I don’t think it’s a disorder, honestly she’s a vibe 😌😊☺️
It is a disorder with sometimes also some serious things like heart, kidney and blood vessel problems and often teeth problems and lower IQ.
I feel like people with Williams and Down syndrome are how people are supposed to be or how people should be. They’re happy, kind, forgiving, loving, do their best. The best human beings on the planet.
If only everyone saw through their eyes
That was a really nice way to put it : )
🫶🏽
I completely agree. If everyone was like that, the whole world would become a paradise full of happiness, peace, love and laughter ☺️
I have a 34 year old son with Down syndrome and he is a total delight :)
I have been in an insanely dark place for several weeks. I’ll be totally honest, it’s gotten to the point that I don’t want to be here anymore. This beautiful interview has just pulled me out of such a dark place. Bess, you are such a beautiful soul. I hope you never lose anything about the beautiful person you are. You’re going to make such an impact on others lives. I feel so HAPPY after watching you be yourself. Keep being you 🥰
do t do it I like duces
So glad you're here❤
so so happy you’re here! i hope you know you’re so important and you deserve to be happy :)
I'm very glad you're coming back from that dark place, Megan :)
im there now, its rough...finding reasons to stay is hard, im glad you found some joy here, i liked this too
all i can think about is how happy this girl is going to make so many people! she's going to make so many people smile, and feel good about themselves, and feel like they have someone on their side!!! she's such a gift to this world
Even severe depression can't contain a great real smile when watching her be an angel! Thank you for gifting me a smile today 💌
@@Nuphs8thats a crazy statement and wrong, its a real disorder in a persons brain, working out can help but it doesnt cure depression. i hope you learn to have empathy for things you will never understand.
You can get over depression man, don't give up :)
@@Nuphs8that a way to help but it won't cure depression😂 depression in itself isn't a choice
@@Nuphs8I’m assuming you haven’t ever had it.
I love that people are debating the logistics and authenticity of this stranger's depression
I strive to be this unapologetically happy in life. I know that this is classified as a “disability” or “disease” but in my eyes, this is such a blessing. There is no such thing as too much positivity or happiness. This girl is such a bundle of joy, keep her heart pure and protected. 🌷
Exactly i see a girl enjoying life thats it.
Two beautiful comments.
She motivated me to the same thing. Keeping the video.
True😊
Only problem is people tend to get angry at happy people. I never could figure that out. Walk into work happy, smiling, and saying good morning and people get mad.
Well shes just one of the most adorable souls ive ever seen. I wish i could be her friend and protect her from all the evil and corruption in the world.
She's going to be just fine.
She will find her path and she will find her people.
God Bless Her, and Her family. 💐
Oh my gosh - when Bess responded on calming down - I GOT IT! That resonnated with me and to see and hear her do it and then to hear her say it makes her feel proud --- gosh, I teared up! As an adult, this precious gem of a girl taught me!! What a beautiful little girl!!
I started bawling too
It made so much sense
Yes that was very clever how she helped us all realise how to just calm down, im gonna remember this it was super helpful
Im 26, that almost made me tear up as well..she is absolutely beautiful with a sweet soul
when she was asked if her and her brother ever argue they laughed out loud and that was so wholesome
Man i love how chris matches his interviewees energy. Its gotta be so much fun for these kids who otherwise are probably looked past and ignored. Chris and alyssa are doing good things out here ❤😊
You guys are wonderful parents seeing this by chance was pretty awesome..
Could we also appreciate her mother for her constant support and unconstitutional love, i mean she is an angel herself. She deserves all the love and light she's doing for her daughter and the community. The patience! The ability to comprehend! The empathy she carries❤
*unconditional
Yes, and for not forcing the younger kid into being a caretaker. She seems like a good parent.
This was honestly so wholesome that I literally cried, bless your souls
The word "literally" is redundant. But yeah.
What is it with you and the word literally?@@BalboaBaggins literally ruining the comment section
@@KimberlyBishh Why do you feel the urge to abuse the word literally?
I was born with a severe form of Marfan Syndrome and am living an amazing life turning 23 in May. Love seeing you show how people with genetic differences should be treated, as our best friends. Compassion is the greatest strength of humanity that makes us so successful as a species
I think my daughter has a connective tissue disorder. How does one get diagnosed?
Ah, you are so young still. I appreciate that you have challenges, and I hope that you have joy, peace and love in your life. ❤🌹
@@mrsmacdee1113 genetic testing. You usually start with a pediatrician but if yours isn't wanting to test, consider getting a 2nd opinion.
happy birthday!!
Happy Birthday! This really is a great channel.
I don’t believe she’s even from earth she’s too pure to be from earth❤❤
Chris u deserve a humanitarian award the work you do w these kids is awesome u might be the best content on TH-cam
Syndrome or not. This girl is what the world should look at and strive to become. She knows the meaning of life. An angel 💚💜💚 .
The parents should be so proud.
Humans need sadness, anger and hard times in our lives to toughen. Shes still amazing
No thanks, I need my other emotions as well so I can grow and learn from mistakes.
Нет это реально страшно, она прекрасна но только когда она такая одна!
@@Havok135 so you say, you dont need the emotions of being sad, you need knowladge that sadnes exist.
Yeah I was just thinking this is probably how we will feel in heaven
She probably changes the world constantly. What a super power. She's a super hero, someone should tell her that.
❤️ so true
Yes!!!❤❤
this is oddly specific lol but i feel like shes one of those people that you talk to in a restaurant once and randomly wonder how theyre doing for the next 20 years. cant tell you how many times me or one of my family members will say something like "man, i wonder how that little girl that started talking to us at taco bell that one time in 2006 is doing now" XD
i was thinking she could probably teach depressing people like me a bit about how to experience more joy, may life be easy on her
Right…5 secs into the video I was so happy she can change the world one smile at a time
Wow I am in tears of joy. This kid is so kind, happy, joyful.
Chris is such a sweet kind adult and the way he always interacts with these people really touches my heart. I’m neurodivergent and a trauma survivor and we need more people like him ❤ thank you for helping tell these peoples story.
Ignorance is bliss, as someone who struggles with depression almost everyday. I am extremely envious of this family. She is a miracle child. Thank you for making me smile!
Why you extremely envious , about what, they child is sick, there nothing to be envious.
This disorder also affects the cardiovascular system and causes learning difficulties. Too much of something is never a good thing, she may struggle connecting with people in the future bc she may not be able to understand them when they get upset
The lows help us appreciate the highs in life even more. The whole range of human emotions are beautiful.
As someone who has CPSTD from childhood abuse, I understand the depression & anxiety aspect but also being empathetic and able to understand what others are feeling and act appropriately is a blessing.
Theyre referring to the positive parts of this condition. Not all of it is sad. Stop acting dense.@@litalujanebutterfly
As someone with clinical depression.. I dont.. this girl is just as unwell as us, she has an oxycotin overload, which comes with its own mental health issues and difficulties.. Social cue difficulties.. vunerability to strangers who could hurt her or take advantage of her and her innocence.. I wouldnt want fo be her..
She’s actually a blessing . All that love she could heal the world
🥰 so true!!!
She has a beautiful golden soul
If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven.
The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved.
JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.'
Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late.
We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now...
'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Amen
* Of all the syndromes to have in this life; 'happiness' is one we all need more of. Bess must be a joy to be around. God bless and thanks for sharing this; it brightened my day! 😊
She made me look inside of myself and realize i need to be happier and nicer to people
I absolutely love her relationship with her little brother. You can tell they truly are best friends and that they genuinely love each other.
This baby girl would light up the inside of a nursing home like sunshine on a cloudy day. Simply precious.
This girl made me feel a warmth in my heart I haven't seen for a while❤
