    Quaden Bayles: scammer or real 9yr old.

    I'm sure some of you have seen or heard about this.
    It's about a kid *supposedly 9* being filmed by his mom while he's talking about being bullied and how he wants to kill himself. Any sane mom would NOT be filming this and try to calm her son down. He's garnered support from some celebs, including Hugh Jackmen.

    What do you guys think?
    Either he's taking people for a ride or he's real and genuine.

    I remember reading rumblings about the possibility of fraud, but I don't want to believe it.

    Having some form of link might be helpful to this thread's health.

    This is one of the links questioning the authenticity. I don't want to believe it either, i'm on the fence after reading/seeing info on the net.

    Most of the information from relatives etc are leaning towards it being genuine. But that's me.

    Yall might want to do some research before shaming OP. Could be a case of mistaken identity but the adult with dwarfism who looks like the 'kid' is a real person.

    maybe actually do a little research on the subject before calling someone a dickhead you'll look less like one yourself
    Well then get your shit together.
    Get it all together. And put it in a backpack. All your shit. So it’s together. And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the shit store and sell it, or put it in a shit museum, I don’t care what you do, you just gotta get it together.
    Get your shit together

    While I’m sure someone attempted a similar scam.
    this one is apparently genuine or it’s been going on for since 2012 where baby pictures of him were put online at the beach

    While not a scam per se for this example, the mother is an anti-bully activist so this was done for views and potentially money to help her activism. She definitely used her son here, and it is sad that he is getting the brunt of the online crap.

    And there is some unconfirmed reports he taunts his classmates with money and other stuff he has (thus a bully himself).

    I had my suspicions, however being flamboyant and having made a few stupid post or photos wouldn't say is proof he is scamming anyone.

    He OBVIOUSLY TRIES to fit in, but that doesn't mean he wasn't bullied.

    I think it's possible the video was a set up, I think the mom and he are suspicious, but all in all in seems legit enough
