What a great lad. Sometimes, the more a person goes through in life the better the person they become.

Good luck for the future young man!

I have a mild form of autism doctors told my parents id be in a group home for my whole life and that I would not be able to work or live on my own. Will my parents treated me normal and didnt make excuses for me. I have to jobs and live on my own and also ill be taking my road test in a couple of days I have a really really strong memmory like most autistics.

[RockyyTube]

this was great! very informing :)

[Shineacres]

I agree with another comment... You do seem like a really nice guy! Shoot for the stars mate!

[N0rtheasternGuy]

You can tell that Zac is a good person. I see an intelligent and good-hearted person when I watch this interview; something I rarely feel with most people I encounter in my every day life sadly enough. God bless you Zac and I wish you all of the best. - Joel 30/m/N.Y.

so weed would chill him out



[freshourbmx]

my son is 6 , has classic autism and is non verbal....at times i ask god what did i do wrong...then i see his smilling face and all that goes away...at bed time sometimes he'll hug me and say dad a few times and i cry...i just pray that one day he'll find something that makes him or helps him to not be so frustrated.you never think that it can happen to ur beautiful angel till it hits home...

@multisnootylives What a close-minded and hateful thing to say.

[zarehara]

@multisnootylives you have an ugly heart. that is much much worse.

[multisnootylives1]

so fucking ugly! so fucking retarded!

*Follows an exclamation mark with a lower case letter*

You're not a genius yourself.

I love interviews with high functioning autistics. It's very interesting.

[Sammyseward100]

@multisnootylives1 you shouldnt talk about yourself lol

[OzzyRussellJackieLuv]

@multisnootylives1 what a really horrible thing to say, people who are born with this, and cant help it, just like any other condition what they really need is people to support them and tell them they arnt retarded or ugly, they already have very low self asteem and need it lifting.. so when ignorent people like you come along and say stuff like that it just knocks them back again! I know because my brother has autism, he used to get picked on and tried to take his own life because of others

[OzzyRussellJackieLuv]

@multisnootylives1 But then with the help of people who could see through his Autism, he got through it and now is feeling good about himself, but every now and again some prick like you comes along and knocks him down,then we are back at square one! maybe you should just think about some harsh little comment like that can really affect someone, just think! this is all coming from a 15 year old, if i can understand autism so can you, and so SHOULD you!

[armankhodaei]

My website is called empoweringautism What an awesome screen name. I am going to post up a video response of someone that I interviewed who also has autism in addition to myself.

[serketstudios]

thank you so much for sharing Zac :)

[MikimuCurlyQ]

Wow, this was such a moving interview! A friend of mine has an autistic son who is 8 years old and just as sweet as he can be. I know that at times it can be a challenge dealing with the issues his family faces, but the love and seeing his smiling face more than make up for the challenges. It's great to see another side of autism.
