MEET 9 kids who were just born to be inspiring. From six-year-old Zoe who’s rare condition meant she’d broken more than 100 bones before her first birthday, and 9-year-old Chandler who’s skills in gymnastics have put her on the path to Olympic stardom, to six-year-old Christian who was born with Tessier Cleft Lip and Palate, a condition so rare there are only 60 documented cases in medical history. These young people show that some kids might not always fit the mould, but they do stand out in the most incredible ways.

    LOVE THAT SAYING! "WHY TRY TO FIT IN WHEN YOU'RE BORN TO STAND OUT!!"

    Zoe's story resonates with me so much. I am someone who is also diagnosed with osteogenesis imperfecta, and luckily mine is on the milder side compared to hers. I had broken my femurs 4 times by the time i was 14, on top of numerous other bones (I have also stopped counting). I have still to this day never met someone else in person who has OI. The condition can be so isolating because you never meet other people like you. Something in general that is understated is, at least for me, the mental torment of being trapped in your own body in constant pain without the power to do anything except endure. For me, the mental challenges and bullying will always be much more difficult than the physical aspect (although that DEFINITELY sucks). I know Zoe won't see this but she has given me reassurance that there is still good things in the world during terrible times. Thank you ❤

    Interviewer: Does it hurt when you break a bone? Princess: Bombastic side eye! I mean come on, what a silly, insensitive question.
  • Some of these kids have appeared on SBSK YouTube channel. Chris Ulman is spreading the love and educating us all by interviewing both kids and adults with special needs. Greatest channel on YouTube imo. (I am not affiliated with the channel, just a very happy subscriber.)
  • what i wouldn't do to take away zoe's pain, shes a inspiration and a ray of light, but i wish she could be like any other little girl, running jumping and playing like any other kid, jumping in a ballpit or on a trampoline
  • Charlie is living every kids dream. Heck a lot of adults would love to live his life. He gets to experience bonds with animals many can only dream of.
  • @user-ut5ui2fe5b
    I love Gavins happiness and smiling he lights a room up. He won the parent lottery with you lovely people.
  • Why is Chandler on a video called ‘Born Different’? She’s a good gymnast, but she wasn’t born different?
  • @karenwilson663
    Sophie's smile through her situation just gives me hope.❤❤
  • @lorigraham8127
    That darling girl with the heart outside her ribs is precious! Saying she was beautiful and everyone else is too! Perfect outlook. I hope she's able to reach all her dreams in life. I hope that for all the kids on this program.

    Little Zoey is the most precious little sunshine ever and so beautiful ❤️😍

    There are so many kids born “different”. Sharing their stories helps to educate all ages. Through this, many parents who are struggling can find some peace & a lot of help. These stories are educational, inspiring & hopefully teach tolerance. Kids are generally much more accepting. It is parents who most often create prejudice & fear. I grew up with more than a handful of these children. To me they were just friends & still are! If you or you child(ren) have questions, ask politely. Keep bad stuff in your head!! They are all ppl! Some have different journeys in life. All are beautiful. By sharing their stories they don’t seek attention!! They give others hope, demonstrate that every child is precious & that both their child & them as parents are strong & have unconditional love. This is how every person should think! You never know what’s in store for you or yours. Love, not hate!! 🫶🏻🥰😍💫❌❤️✨💯
  • Sophie blows my mind, she can draw better than me, she can cook better than me, she can do a lot of things i cant
  • @sallymccoy6286
    These children are brave and accept their disabilities with courage. They are trying to overcome the challenges with all their strength and grace. I hope that with medical research and advancement, it will help or prevent some of their health problems.
  • @nubzie
    each of these kids are just so amazing!

    When my kids were little we had a school friend who had a severe case of Treacher Collins. All the kids took a few minutes and they were fine and playing together, it was the adults with the issues! We can learn a lot from kids.
