Dad’s heart breaks after looking at son’s homework
Updated | By Jane Linley-Thomas
When a son wrote this five letter word, his father's heart completely broke.
My heart turned into a sad face after reading this.
Bob Cornelius recently posted a photo of his 11-year-old son Christopher’s homework. Christopher has autism and the note shows the challenges he faces with interacting with other kids on a social level.

Every single night I spend time unpacking the day with my kids and high on the list of contentment for me is knowing they have had a happy day - trying their best and spending time with friends.
I would really battle knowing that my child felt like he didn't have a mate to connect with.
I remember in high school, a once close friend made my life hell and how tough it was for my mom standing back and letting me handle it myself.
My heart goes out to the littles who have a hard time at school, and a gentle hug to those parents who have to stand behind them.
