Happy autism acceptance month from yours truely ✌🏾
🏳️⚧️👍
I'm sorry but why are you a grown woman targeting children? Let them find out more about their sensuality when they are of age. You don't need to influence young children that they may be trans and should give it a try.
Thank you!! The more insanity you guys spew the more you RED PILL people! Please keep up the good work! We can't thank you enough for the work you're doing! Happy Easter :D
I’m so happy the group made it this far
Thank you so much to the help group for encluding me to their school 2:17 & 4:00
I actually know some people from school
That’s my student, Alex. So proud of you! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
We are so proud of Alex!
Thanks guys I appreciate it
This makes me cry happy tears. Way to go, Zach! The Help Group has been instrumental in helping my son harness his strengths. Excited to see where the future will take him. Excellent video!
