Respect Brendan Fraser. Protect Brendan Fraser. Support Brendan Fraser. Embrace Brandon Fraser. And most of all: Love Brendan Fraser ❤️

I have 2 autistic sons and when I got with my husband it changed his look on the disabled community different. He became one of my sons best advocates and I didn’t feel like I was fighting alone. Now that they in are in their 30’s there is more help then when they were younger.

I have Aspergers and I always loved Brendan.

My son and I have autism. His is slighty “worse” than mine, but we manage. My wife is sort of the anchor in the family. Bless her soul 🙏💙

Just like Afton Fraser.

Glad to hear he understands how important hobbies or movies can be to some autistic people for some movies are their whole world.

As a parent of an autistic child it is comforting to hear this because I definitely struggle with guilt. I appreciate his openness ❤

As long as you're listening to your kid and accomodating what makes them comfortable (where is reasonable ofc) you're doing fine.

Yep

My son is nonverbal and 5, and he is also always full of joy and mirth. Can completely relate❤️

I'd just so love him to get the Oscar this year. He has a deep and pure soul. He has made me laugh at his comedies and yet plumbed the depths of feeling to give such a powerful performance in The Whale. He's always come across as a genuinely nice person, so rare in Hollywood.

Those kids their are angels on the earth , their came here to teacher us about love , patience and about innocence.

My heart goes out to him. This is not what a father wants to hear. What a life he has been given. His son is his joy and obviously he loves him so. THIS is a DAD ! THIS is a man ! GOD BLESS YOU BRENDAN AND YOUR SON. 💙🙏

There's nothing wrong with being told you have an autistic child. The issue is when someone says "the world isn't going to help you to meet your child's basic support needs, have fun with that!"

Much love to this legend we all love u tons.....Oscar winner

My 18 yr old autistic son is the most authentic part of my life. These kids are amazing.

This guys has had bad hand over bad hand dealt to him in his life it’s crazy. Really happy to see him rising over everything and fighting his way back. Well deserved Oscar nomination hope he wins it and ups his value for future projects.

Just watched this and I have a deep love and appreciation for Brendan on this interview/revelation alone. As an autistic person myself, to know he sees us autistics and makes sure to just be present with them as it would mean the world to them and bring them so much joy. That and his honesty about his crestfallen feelings when he was diagnosed - it's understandable and even more admirable at how he's learned how special his son is, he learned to appreciate and find joy in his son's joy. And I totally believe what he says about taking a simple commuter flight. I honestly love Brendan for this and want to give him a great big hug, regardless of how much fame or money the man has.

Brandon seems like a great Guy.

Here's someone who needs a little more love a little more time immediately saw my oldest son!!! If only people could be kind enough to give it to him... So sweet awesome interview

My 15 year old son is autistic and I totally lit up when Brendan talked about his son's happiness and joy... that's my boy to a T! Car rides too! Bless this man and his son.

Mr.Brendan fraser He's my favourite actor since i was a kid.until now i've been 27 years old my age.and forever He will always to be my action hero,great actor and father for his sons,you are such a great person for everything what you've done sir.good luck for your project and God bless you Mr.Brendan fraser...❤❤i love you sir🤗🤗

Soooo true, some people are non-verbal and need constant care and others can get a job, be social. Some it's very hard to be social, are extremely smart but introverted, it's all over the place!

Love this dude

Totally relatable. My son is autistic too. For me it was a relief getting his diagnosis because I was at my wits end feeling like I was failing as a parent because nothing was working... So, it helped me learn how to provide better for him.

God chose him for sure!

I'M 57 was diagnosed later in life with very high functioning Autism. Early in life I was more socially awkward than I am now. I work in I.T. and get paid very well doing it. I was lucky and was able to fit in and get a career and get married. I have 2 nephews and few cousins that were diagnosed with Autism early in life and got help. But, they are now in their late teens, 20's & 30's. From what I see and talking to their parents. They will never be able leave home and live on their own. Even if they have some sort of paid work to do. It really sucks.

That is why, I’m sorry to say, I wouldn’t accept a diagnosis of autism if I were you. If someone wouldn’t know from speaking to you, and if your life hasn’t seemed to be impaired significantly at all, you’re not autistic. I’m sorry, but I’m sick of everyone trying to claim something they’re not. Even if a doctor told me I was on the spectrum today I would say BS. Don’t use it as an excuse cause you’re a little eccentric. Sincerely, parent of a truly autistic son.

My hubby and I have autism, while I was blessed with love and support his family has always been ashamed of him,now even more so that he needs a wheelchair but I try my best to show him that not everyone is toxic or mean I just wish my parents were alive to help me heal his wounds :(

He is getting into shape💪🏊‍♂️

Not weird at all. If Howard Stern has the same mentality as he had years ago, then talking to a parent of someone with autism would be beneficial to him since it should educate him and maybe it'll be a learning experience. Everyone deserve to grow and be better. Ignorance is not bad, it's the refusal to learn that is.

ASD parenting is somewhat a struggle all we want is their happiness and to have a good life my son is about to be 12 and we are still trying to navigate our daily life in ways that help the whole family we noticed so much after his diagnosis but we worked very hard before we got it just working on skills and it can be overwhelming when the world is hard enough as it is but it's even harder when you don't fit in

My daughter has autism and we all wish that there was something that could be done to help correct the problem but we all know that there isn't. With that being said all we can do is embrace it and learn all we can about it for those who can't. I tend to believe that these people no matter what end of the spectrum they are on are operating on a higher level than any of us. There are a lot of influential people out there that have loved ones on the spectrum. I would love to see them in hundreds NO thousands of commercials bringing awareness to this subject! There also needs to be more fliers and pamphlets put out educating people on how to communicate and interact with these loved ones!!! AWARENESS!!!!!!!! AWARENESS!!!!!!!! AWARENESS!!!!!!!! GET IT OUT THERE!!!!!!!! IT CAN BE DONE!!! 🧩🐸🌐

The only "problem" which needs to be "corrected" is the world's attitude towards Autistic people. It's getting better, but ideas like the spectrum having "ends" really aren't actually helping anyone. What we really all want is for people to meet our support needs (high or low as they may be) and help us to deal with our individual difficulties as they occur... Rather than making them worse with harsh lighting and strange social expectations.
