@WJACOTT boy who hangs out with a fairy, spends his time hanging out with furry boys in the woods. Seems gay AF to me. Peter Pan has always been gay, you're just now realizing. Gay Peter pan ftw!
Toe-walking is actually a sign of autism. It usually goes hand in hand (pun intended) with "inappropriate social interactions" which includes the odd touching and the poor eye contact. Most children toe-walk to some extent when they're learning to walk, but grow out of it, so you don't see it very often in the "average" population.
I never knew that. I toe walk still, and I am 33, but I don't have autism. I just cannot break the habit. I only do it when I am barefoot though.@PicturePerfectMemori
@onlyrotary17 bruh, the Peter pan actor did great chill. The dad mentioned the hug. No staff member is going after this kid in these videos the holding hands thing is because the kid has autism
I love how none of these actors react negatively to the touching. Some may gently direct him away but no one has been mean or pushed him. I know it's their job but some people don't do what they get paid for so it's still amazing. And if any of them are uncomfortable they don't show it, as I said earlier, they just gently guide him away. Perfect way to handle that
I like that too. There's a kid like Thomas at my school and my old friend was so rude to him from one little touch that "friend" jumped up out his seat and cussed the kid out
They have a lot of training when it comes to people with autism, they get a lot of make a wishers and disabled day groups so it's kinda a necessity! Super cool to see them be so accepting though for sure.
@@fullflyjordanthey must be getting specific training because they're all so good. I wish everyone knew how to be with everyone. When you think about how much work some people have to do, how much they have to learn, to make the majority comfortable, why can't the majority learn to meet them half way, like this Peter Pan has
When you make a reservation and state there is someone who has special needs, the park will try to accommodate. They have specially trained staff for this. Including the actors.
Disney cast members never seem to disappoint when handling situations with children and adults who have special needs. They are always so attentive,patient, and very respectful of boundaries ❤ love to see it
These disney employees are so wonderful with autistic people, they don't get freaked out by him touching and actually they offer to hold the young mans hands and give him a cuddle. Also they don't just say something and then wait for a response, they understsnd the autistic person likely wont/doesn't feel comfortable speaking and they let them know that's ok. Beautiful! ❤
See this is so strange for me, because my old boss used to work for Disney and he claimed no one was allowed to touch the actors. So this was really sweet to watch. ❤
I'm sure Thomas and his family were given special permission considering they are getting quite a following on social media. The Disney Parks do not want bad press, especially towards special needs community.@ErrorMoose
As a mom to a nonverbal autistic boy with intellectual disability people like this make me so emotional… people that meet my son at an eye to eye level… that accept his ways and jus roll and vibe with it. It makes me hopeful happy and always so emotional. This guy needs a raise!
A really huge and amazing part of this is that the actor is communicating directly to the kiddo instead of parents/guardians/caretakers, which is SO IMPORTANT!!!
I wouldn't say it's anywhere near the most important, especially if the child doesn't care or notice, but I do think that it's just common courtesy and is good to do, yes. Some people might be more comfortable knowing in advance what the person's triggers/sensitivities/interests are beforehand.
@@MsHojat Just because someone isn't looking at you doesn't mean they aren't listening :) Peter's conversation was with Thomas, not the person holding the camera. Autism is one of many examples, but too often people talk to someone's carer, friend, parent, interpreter... anyone but the person they should be addressing. Like you said, it is common courtesy and good to do, but often those who don't communicate the way we expect don't get that respect. What I see from this clip is Thomas is aware of his surroundings, that he's being spoken to, and understands, from how he copies Peter's pose, follows his cue to look at the camera, knows he's being asked for a hug and can choose whether he wants to. Thomas initiates contact with his hands and Peter's shoulders. He's an equal participant in this conversation. Imagine if Peter only addressed the person holding the camera.
I wish more people, actors or not, were like this with us autistic folk in public especially in crowded and loud places where it can be very overwhelming 🥺❤️
All the actors are so nice but you can tell when certain ones have either been there a long time, or they truly love what they do. He's one of my favorites!
Excellent, Peter Pan. So well done and kind. For those saying he's just doing his job, there is no requirement to touch the guests that much. He was above and beyond welcoming and did not flinch when he had his both hands on his shoulder (which can be scary with a taller guy).
This interaction is is pure gold! This actor is a gem and needs a raise! To understand the assignment with someone who is neuro divergent is so hard and he did it with ease! Brovo sir and dad!
The cast members are polishing up and getting better and better with special interactions that create awesome memories! “Are you enjoying your adventures today”? Excellent engaging dialogue ! I love it!!!!!!
All these actors should be given national honours. The way they have included a young man with a condition feel special just melts my heart with hope for the present and the future. As an autistic man myself, all I can say guys is thank you. I wish there were more actors that were so inclusive as you all were with people like Thomas. God bless you all ❤🥹
Another fantastic Disney employee. These guys are so amazing. I'm extremely happy that Thomas was able to have such a wonderful interactive experience with such warm hearted ppl.
That was such an attentive, appropriate hug!!! He really reads the situation well. What a beautiful, kind interaction. I wish there were more (higher paying) jobs for people with these skills, and more respect for public facing jobs in general! These folks are amazing at what they do
As a mom to an autistic son, I appreciate how this actor took the time to talk to Thomas. It truly warms my heart and he deserves a raise. This is how all actors should be at Disney
Peter pan not tinker Bell wonderful young man beatitul soul you have wonderful to see we still have ones like this in the world .I have a child with a intellectual disability it can get hard at times .love this ❤
I always love seeing the Disney character people interact! They always do it in character but my goodness they bring the magic! I’m noticing a lot of them know how to safely keep their physical boundaries in check without offending. 💙💙 love to see it
Brilliant example of the C&C theory(caring & compassion). Ones autistic and ones artistic and together they paint a beautiful picture for us all to see and learn from by God's good grace, God bless you good folks❤️💙🙏🏿
These people get paid very little for the job they do. This guy was amazing, interacting with that young man so respectfully and sensitively. What a professional! Those sort of people skills will take him far in life. On another note, he also looks very much like Peter Pan. Love to see such a positive post.
I love how warm and welcoming this guy is with Thomas. He was so gentle and sweet, even when being touched. I'm so glad Thomas got a hug and a picture. 😊❤
I also have a brother with autism. I was as happy as if my brother had visited Disneyland. the actor is so professional and kind. God bless you all. ❤️
This guy is awesome. So friendly and just gives the vibes of a really generous person. He probably gives so many people amazing memories and doesn't even realise .
Thomas seemed a little distant but the actors are so great they treat him like a human even when he was lookin the wrong way or seemed to have a sensory overload Actualy love these actors
I really wish schools would just prepare us for life. How beneficial would it be if each of us just had one class where we learned of how to interact with those that are not capable of normal interaction?
