Bradley is an amazing guy. Bradley being a popular student truly has a heart of gold. Most popular teens in high school would laugh and make fun of Ellie. He saw Ellie for who she is. There’s no reason why Ellie couldn’t go to the prom. I’m so glad she had an amazing time.🙂

Something tells me that this is a school that is not likely to have trouble with bullying or shootings. We need more like this. Stories like this are what can help other kids to learn tolerance and acceptance. Brendan and all his friends, and the other students supporting them should be so proud of themselves. When you are in a situation where you are so different in some ways, like Ellie and others with challenges, having friends around who accept you for who you are, just the way you are makes it so much easier for them to keep on going.

With an entire graduating class of young adults like this, there's brilliant hope for the future of this sometimes very dark-seeming world. What a great bunch of kids!!

That was very sweet of him to do that for her

The world needs more friends like this. Good job. Much respect.

A hero? For going to prom with a friend? I wouldn’t go that far. I’m sure they’re both nice people but not heroes.

You know, as a young girl who had some medical issues I longed for someone to stand up to the bullies...that never happened. There were times when the "clique" of bullies would try to do cruel things like befriend a new (boy) student, and ask the guy to pay attention to me. I always declined because I "KNEW' what those kids were up to. They also made young girls that they would have never taken into their fold, part of their "clique" just to be mean. I found the "Fairy Tale" that I am sure some of those kids in my high school class only dreamt about. The man I married could have cared less about the medical issues I had(which weren't properly diagnosed until we had been married for 10 yrs.) He was one in a million as a husband and father.(He has since passed away) To see this young man be able to give a classmate a wonderful experience like this reminds me of something my 2nd son did at HIS prom. His dad and I had been asked to be chaperones (along with 6 other couples who were parents of the other students Jr & Sr High students) Our son didn't tell us anything about the prom, he actually was surprised that we agreed to be chaperones TBH. He had a classmate that was wheelchair bound. She was a very sweet young girl. Our son and his date arrived with the 2 other couples that they had went to dinner with and everything seems to be going great, the kids dances and had fun and about 90 minutes into the prom, I noticed our son going over to the girl who was in a wheelchair. He bend over to her and said something to which she shook her head.....he was a little insistent the second time, and she smiled and when the music started, he gently picked her up out of her wheelchair and began slow-dancing with her in his arms. Well, I'll admit that EVERY single chaperone was in tears & smiles at the end of that dance. The girls parents were there as well (as chaperones)...and WOW....it was absolutely and amazing thing to see. I knew then that we had RAISED ALL of our children to be KIND to others. Never did I ever want (nor did I ever hear) to hear that one of our children made fun of another classmate....it is cruel and due to what I went thru at the small village school I attended I VOWED that my children were going to be raised differently. Different enough to be able to respect others even if they had medical issues.....no one is perfect and we are all "Normal" that is what my DH and I wanted to be able to teach our children and we succeeded beyond measure!!! Brandon Ritchie parents are a rare breed.....Thank you Mr.& Mrs. Ritchie for raising a wonderful young man that I'm sure will be a wonderful husband & father someday.

May this young man go far in life.

This is by far the best story I have seen ☺ just wonderful

This should give us all hope. What an amazing story!!!

It’s so sweet that they just had their twin girls 9 months after prom. They are so cute and they look just like her.

I can't tell you how absolutely refreshing it has been to see the young people in this video!! Carrying the responsibility of making positive choices isn't easy, but more of a daily life challenge. Thoughtful, heartfelt parenting has guided all of them toward young adulthood. Well done on the part of everyone!!

What a great group of kids!

Most of my life I felt that opening doors and giving disabled people a wide berth was respect. One day I met a woman I was crazy about who had a disabled daughter. Her name was Sonya and she can't talk either. Being a part of Sonya's life is one of my greatest joys in life! Through her I learned how I was not respecting disabled people like I should. Giving them a wide berth was not being a part of their lives. These days I interact with all disabled people I meet. I wish others would learn this lesson! Interacting with disabled people has brought a lot of sunshine into my life!

THis is so Beautiful. Tears of joy flow through my eyes. Glory to GOd, and Bless you Rett and Ellie. You are all amazing children of God. Love you ya'll.💚✝☦✝

What a great story about some wonderful kids!

I wish I could give this kid a hug thank you so much what you did your an amazing young man my sister also is disabled and I wish someone would have done this for her

This young man has the character of a good human being

I wish every high school has student like Brendan and his classmates.

Kindness cost none of us a damn penny ! It is good to see such kindness happening with teens these days.......

Aw I think that’s sweet what he did. 🥰 And it must be very tough not being able to talk. I felt so bad for her. 😢💔

Blessed be grate show of friendship and love towards the world

When we so often hear about school bullying we not only hear about one exceptional young man (great job to his parents!) but a whole group who has friended this girl. God bless them all.

Seeing them not ending up together sickens me! I shipped them so hard.

That is great to see. I can see that there is hope out there. well done to the students for making her day.

That whole group is amazing
