Autistic Teen Repairs Damaged American Flags
Matthew Amatulli likes to sew, but he isn’t hemming pants or sewing quilts. He’s making sure Old Glory flies in perfect condition. The 16-year-old, who is autistic, was taught to sew by his grandmother when he was around 7. His mother, Angela, says Matthew’s love for flags started around 3, and now he dedicates his sewing skills to repairing torn or tattered American flags. Matthew’s flags are flying all around West Palm Beach, Florida. #InsideEdition

He should contact VFW’s , Military Bases, Museums, places like that to see if they will hire him to restore them and maybe some other things like old uniforms.

Or just anything he like. Flags of Norway, Puerto Rico, working at a tailors...or anything that is conducive to autism.

@California Cobra - but if the old flags can be used to repair old flags it would mean less burning and the kid gets the material/parts he needs. To me it’s a win/win. He gets his material and they get the satisfaction that old glory flys again.

I agree its nice that he has a hobby that he enjoys but I don't understand why people have qualms with burning the American flag. The flag means a lot of different things to different people and burning the flag is the proper way of getting rid of it (according to the flag codes). No hate, just my opinion.

@Arid Sohan Couldn't agree more, brother
I’m on the autism spectrum, and the stigma around hiring people with special needs is still so blatant that people don’t know how much more we can offer to the community. It’s really heartbreaking to the autism community. I’m so happy that the boy found his calling, and can turn his hobby into his career. He’s a great example of how us autistics can be great assets to the community.

Dedication of this guy is amazing
I'm on the spectrum too, I'm so glad that this was made, and I'm so glad that this wonderful young man serves his community like this. I have a few obsessions too, two of them being cruise ships and hand dryers. With the latter one, I hope to learn how to repair hand dryers so I can do something similar to what he's doing for businesses. I've seen a boy do that with vacuum cleaners, so I don't see why I can't do it for hand dryers.
I have so much in common with this kid, I am also autistic and 16 years old and love flags, I feel like I should meet this kid one day.
Hi my name is Moses and I’m 17 yrs old from Singapore 💖🇸🇬. Love what he’s doing repairing flags as I grew up also gathering a huge collection of my country’s national flag and other flags from around the world. I’m also from the ASD community and I am proud of what this young man is doing. Keep it up!👍😁
Aww such a precious boy MUST PROTECT!!!
He's so Cute and Adorable! The lord Is definitely watching over him
Beautiful story! America has never needed you more!! Thank you so much for what your doing!!

What a fabulous young man! Much blessings on him and his family. I wish him great success with his calling.
He should make his own costume flags, make a flag Collection Out of Flags he designed himself, that would be pretty cool
Now that's a Patriotic person if i've seen one
Much respect. He needs recognition 🇺🇸
Wow, what a great patriotic American.
That is SO awesome!! America is the best country in the world and the flag deserves so much respect, and this young man deserves a lot of respect for what he is doing!
How very helpful and generous of him.
Im glad he found purpose.
God bless that young man.
Maybe the next time you think of stomping or burning the flag. Think of this first
IF SOMEONE LAYS ON MY MANS MATT. IM ATTACKING YOU. PROTECT HIM AT ALL CAUSES!
That's one of the most patriotic things I've seen
Way to commit a patriotic act kid, proud of you deeply.
Give him a go fund me, I'm sure it would work

This reminds me when my mom told me about her grandmother being a park ranger and she was responsible for putting up the flag everyday and putting it away every night. She kept it somewhere special and safe where it was basically NEVER ruined, and even in rain the lady would take care of those flags
What an amazing guy. Wish nothing but the best for u
