    What a talented ,and wonderful young man. It will be wonderful to see him grow up and become the man he will be. His mom is also a very wonderful person. A very kind and loving human. Both are lucky to have the other. God bless.

    Tears to my eyes, but grinding of teeth on beholding 30 soulless and nasty people giving this a thumbs down 👿 Shame on them.

      Pawel G - quite so. He is obviously such a horrible and evil person! 🤔
      I also find it amazing that people like the ultimate Mr Nice, the unquestionably interesting, charming and informative Sir David Attenborough seems to always get a few thumbs down. The people responsible for this strange and pathetic behaviour is that it’s the only power that they have in their sad lives, but at least it’s better than their setting fire to kittens or tearing the wings off butterflies.

      Surely if god decides to intervene, nothing would be lost to start with. Which i think speaks something about the flawed design of his creation. You see how nothing makes sense when you put things in logical order ?

    There are millions of people with similar problems who do not have any care, support or the opportunity to express themselves around, who will never write a book about. Rex was very lucky with his mother, environment and place of birth.

    There was this man at work that had a knee problem and he couldn't walk normally so one day as we sat near eachother in the mess area(tearoom) I challenged his faith and lo snd behold God struck his knee with a bolt of power and healed him in front of me then after that he was a changed man.I didn't hang around to long in case people might have gotten the wrong idea,but I left that company knowing I'd achieved something nobody expected,but it was God,all God.

    The experts have it all wrong. Autism needs a lot more studying and learning what is possible. Maybe doctors should start prescribing ENCOURAGEMENT.

  • @sebastianbache8862
    @sebastianbache8862 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    No doubt Rex is fortunate due to his mother. This is what is possible if parents cared enough to encourage their children to achieve their very best. Instead they want them out of their hair when they come home from work, and what better way than give them an iPhone and gaming software. Rex is the best example of what achievement in perfection does, over the thousands of dummies who hate school, and refuse to achieve their very best. You see them today as adults complaining about their minimum wage jobs, the price of everything, and worse of all the anti-intellectual bias in everything they view as if its not their fault. Well, you made your bed as a kid, now sleep in it.

      They have! It's documented in a documentary about Derek which is up here, and Derek's teacher Adam and Rex's mom Cathleen wrote about their experiences in their respective books about the two. I hope they play piano together again someday!
