Exactly why I only tell bronies that I love MLP: FiM

What do you think of me?:

I Have an idea. If he recovers(Hopefully). Do you think the producers should give him a cameo voice role? I Wish him luck on his recovery(And schumacher!!!). And i now dedicate my tomb raider runs to him.

I blame the media for this, as well as the parents who can't raise their children to respect others, and let them do stuff like this to other kids. The media needs to stop labeling things, and treating everyone who doesn't follow a norm like they're some hindrance on everyone. This crap was done years and years ago, and you'd think we'd of learned that all labeling does, is cause problems like this.

Feel free to add me on steam if you want to play something. Also don't be afraid to message and talk to me. I've had bad luck when I start a conversation, so I more then likely won't start one.

UPDATE***: On Feb. 14, Michael reached a huge milestone! He was able to be lifted from his bed to his special chair, and he tolerated it wonderfully. This is only possible because of the exceptional medical team, and all the love and prayers from everyone out there! Thank you for being so involved in the evolving miracle!  #TeamMightyMichael

This kid is more than likely deals with Aspergers syndrom and ADD. Conditions that make you obsess about things that some people may or may not be interested in and if the person talks about it constantly it really turns people off.

 

People who are young, do tend to get made fun of for things that don't fit other peoples worldview or paradime. I think as any adult who comes to these forums, that we should be aware that these kinds of interests, do tend to create some conflicts among the younger generation.

 

If the show causes others to be bullied for their love or interest for it, than it would be a good moment to teach about the values that the show represents. Such as Not everyone is going to like the things your interested in, because you have a unique prespective on things. That is special to you and others who share your interest. Sometimes its better to ask what other peoples interests are and see if you can find some things that interest you both.

 

What this kid did was he let the show become such a force in his life that, he let it affect his relationships within his circle. The show becomes an addiction, just like any drug.

 

I bring this story up as a teaching moment. The kid survived his suicide attempt, but it also serves to realize that some things such as life and your own happiness should go beyond any interest or hobby. You shouldn't let your hobbies or other people's opinions of your particular mindset, make a determination over weather or not you should end your own life by severing relationships with other people. That doesn't solve the problem, it just hurts yourself and everyone around you.

 

Thoughts anyone?

I'm not saying it's allright to bully, but isn't it way too far to go on the suecidal train? I mean he could have told anybody like his parents, a teacher or just something that would make it stop. Poor boy. Lucky he's still alive.

That's good giygasdiscord81. Its always great to have multiple interests. Yet in this case it became apparant that Michael went a bit overboard on it, and he let it affect his relationships with other people. I've learned in my adult life, especially from Dr. Gradin Temple that there are all these rules of social relationships, and it affects many people on the spectrum. Michael did make a very poor choice for how to deal with his particular problems, he was most likely tormented by some of his peers because of his particular outlook on things. Its a sad situation all around, which should force us all to think about the relationships that young people experience at that age. We can't just GO through life. We have to GROW through life.

That's fucking disgusting that people would bully him just because he watches MLP.  I hope that the bullies get what they deserve.  I would send them money if I could, but I have no money.

The parents really don't want there to be any reprisals against any of the parties involved. The kids are too young and don't have the mindset to understand how people's feelings really are affected by how they interact with other people. If anything the people involved will get their lives straightened out. Most people do.

Does anyone think that if this boy recovers. Hasbro will give him a voice role in FIM? I Think that would be the nicest thing they could do. Have him voice a Colt character. He is doing absolutely fine. Breathing 2.5 days without assistance!!! When he wakes up. Hasbro will give him a voice role. By the way, i think the bullies learned their lesson. Never bully someone or you may never see them again. The school is probably doing something about it though. So let's give Morones a voice role!!!

Beauty Mark Tattoo in Canton, CT is offering discounted Pony tattoos for $40, with all proceeds going to benefit Michael. If you live in the area and are the kind of person who likes ink, this is a great way to support him.

Really great to see people reach out and support this kid.

I think Michael is a long way from being a guest on the show, if at all. I think the best way to deal with it, is to see if he can recover his ability to speak and to see properly. He will need a lot of prayers and support going through this ordeal.

I sent my love to him on the Facebook page. Suffering from brain damage myself(won't get into why, I don't really remember the chain of events too well), I really feel for the kid and his family.
