Stay strong, Keaton. Don’t let them make you turn cold. I promise it gets better. While those punks at your school are deciding what kind of people they want to be in this world, how would you and your mom like to come to the Avengers premiere in LA next year? https://t.co/s1QwCQ3toi

Keaton-Don’t waste time wondering why a bully would be so mean-They’re sad people who think hurting others will make them feel better because they really don’t like themselves-They’re just jealous because you’re so smart & handsome├ó┬¥┬ñ├»┬╕┬ÅYour friend-mh https://t.co/SUMw3OoCTm

WOW!!!! What an incredible response!!!
Keaton’s mom even took to social media to share her VERY shocked — and very mature — reaction to the outpouring of love (below):
“Friends, overwhelmed is the understatement of the world right now. ├óΓé¼┬ª I’m humbled by the voice my boy has been given, but he’s still just a little boy, & he’s a little boy who desperately wants acceptance, that I have to try to find a way to navigate him through the difference in true acceptance & attention. I know God has His hand in this, & I trust that the right things will happen in the right time. In the meantime, bear with us. #FINE.”
Incredible.
You’re the man, Keaton Jones!!!
