A Texas couple received an unexpected visit from a young boy who is looking for friends. Shayden Walker explains that his previous friends were bullies. Although the homeowner, Brennan Ray, was not home, he and the boy continued the conversation over his home camera. Ray and his wife were so touched by Walker's story they posted the interaction online, which quickly received millions of views. They also made it their mission to help Walker. Inside Edition's Les Trent has more.

@@TheTruth75175 he asked the parent if they had a kid so they could be friends, nothing wrong with that. When I moved to Berlin I used tinder to find friends bc I was too much busy with my work and making music. I also connected via insta with other musicians or people, which in the end is the same as asking for friends. He's just a small kid so there is no reason to say that.

@@FiveDORRA The boomer is hiding behind a closed door instead of getting out. Do you not realize that? The guy was in his 30's and is scared to talk to the kid face to face. The kid is does not only have confidence but also is smart, because he is asking his neighbors that live in the area instead of strangers who very likely do not even live there and thus obviously would have no kids.

If the kid doesn't learn to protect himself, he's gonna be a lonely victim his entire life. Women don't want a man who needs or is accustomed to protection. They want a man who can protect them and their kids. Some day he's gonna be a father and he's gonna need to pass on to his son how to stand up for himself. It's not society's job to protect little boys, it's society's job to teach them how to protect themselves. And it's little boys job to grow-up and protect society. This safety-ism has to stop.

The parents can only do so much. Most of the bully type kids in my school growing up had very good parents. They know what they’re doing is wrong.. so what can a parent do? I suspect a lot of those parents had no idea their kids were bullies. The ball is in the kids’ court. It’s up to the bullies, the bullied, and the people seeing it happen to manage it. After all it has existed as long as people have, and will until we don’t.

yea it took some ass beatings to knock the bully out of me when i was a child, i was transfering oppression of being bullied, grew confident as i learned to fight them off which lead to an unchecked ego and then became bully to innocent kids. i look back on it with remorse. when i moved to a new school it all came back at me in 7 fold. my karma was bad. were all friends now tho as adults. the teachers hated my dad who was a nam vet and would yell at them at a conference or phone call, encourage me to kick everyones ass, so the offended teachers would encourage other kids to beat me up, which i did deserve. i used to dread when my dad would say he was "going to bat for me" at the school, again. im not angry at him anymore tho, but i held passive aggressive anger towards him for years. a therapist fixed that by explaining to me how fuct up the old man's own childhood was that he interviewed my dad about before talking to me. i had no idea because my dad never talked about it. now i have nothing but empathy for my dad but he had to become the man of the house of 6 other kids at the age of 12, because my grandfather was too drunk to do so.
