What an inspirational young man!! When you have a dream, just go after it, no matter what!!
I'm crying. Well done young king❤
May god bless this young innocent boy
Great to see a Dad who wants the best for his son and encourages him to make it out of StLouis and stay in school and work hard 👏
that's his grandfather, not his dad
Yeah, right! Through the whole family away!
CONGRATULATION. RIGHT ON.
Awesome story
"Rosa walk through the dark,Xavier saw the light,bro the journey was long,blessings have disguise..."
No! He is a kid and should have been supported and taken care of! WTF are you talking about! Rosa? STFU!!! You damn well know you are trying to fail this boy! Hopefully, he gets away from all them losers!
To get to places where normal people don't go You need to do what normal people Do not do... This is how you get to the top you do the things most of us don't want to do. Good job kiddo Don't make the one time deal! ❤
I’m calling ksdk like this kid did. My kids walk daily 25 miles to school.give them a scholarship,now.
the kid did not call ksdk, what city and schools do your kids walk 25 miles to?
That means YOU ain't sh%# as a parent!
Do they have a 4.0 and academic awards, like that boy?
Love this story so much! 🤍
A story worth telling! All the best to this young man, and may he live a long and fruitful live. May a cure for sickle cell anemia be found soon.
This shouldn’t happen
Why, that young man is trying to overcome his circumstance. He has a 4.0 grade and has several academic awards.
