The thing that bugs me about being tall is that you're almost expected and pushed on by society to play basketball. Like depending on what family you're born into, being tall automatically means that you're going to be playing basketball. And those types of people raised with that mindset then proceed to ask me "do you play basketball." Where I then ask "Do you play basketball?" They say no, I say back to them "I don't either, that makes two of us. I'm tall, not a jock."

So awesome, I had to remind myself that that was quite funny and straight answer for 10 year old😮

​@@greego5952The basketball talk wasn't that serious, (or maybe it is in his head because he's a little kid). He also says he's slower than other kids and can't run as fast. He isn't just tall, he has other health problems and other than being very large and strong for his age, doesn't seem to be particularly athletic in other ways.

There should be more regulations regarding aceaaibility to tall people, and when I mean tall, I mean tall like him and my patient

[@louise8752]

His condition could possibly qualify him as a disabled individual depending on the limitations his condition creates to his daily life. Also, if not now, perhaps in the future depending. If it affects his ability to access academic setting, I would expect he could receive accommodations through his school district.

He looks like a "normal 11yo" Ive gotten the worst looks n comments in public n have gotten into verbal altercations with ppl bc they have made comments abt him or my parenting.The world is so harsh.

I'm 7'1.5, and a bodybuilder. It's true, man, you can do whatever you put your mind to. People used to put me down all the time because I had such a large frame to fill out, but I did. Don't get discouraged and just go for your dreams. That being said, I do want to give a warning, being 7 feet tall is not as fantastic as you would think. There are a lot of difficulties in everyday life that you and others don't account for. Think of everything you already struggle with and multiply it by 10x. Driving, flying, showers, toilet seats, chairs, clothing, hobbies, etc. just get that much more difficult. You will realize this once you hit around 6'6 or 6'8 depending on the shoes you wear. It becomes a whole different ball game when you can't just walk through doors.

Hopefully, he does take into account that he's large enough to severely hurt another child. His 10 year old mind is developing like other 10 year old children from what I hear. God Bless him. I pray he keeps his positive attitude. 😀😀👋👋💖💖

Kid sounds smarter than most college students these days. He has a very bright future ahead of him.

[@kelsey2333]

​@@lonca_47this is so untrue

[@Leenapanther]

He does not have the words yet to explain why he doesn't like his image. I get it somewhat. Everyone has a mental image of their body. When I gained a lot of weight that image didn't change a lot. Looking in the mirror was difficult, because I did not see myself anymore. Now I'm losing a lot of weight and start to see me again.

[@glee_again2594]

FABULOUS Mama and son. Thank you for sharing your story with us! 🙏🙏🙏

[@sneezymonkey]

What a lad! That confidence in himself will take him places!

[@GoddessMaicaJ]

Him ready to dunk on everyone is definitely the answer of a 10 year old lol. Love it

[@pinkwinterprincessEri]

I love his confidence and sense of humor he is pretty much the definition of a gentle giant I'm pretty sure he gives the greatest hugs .

[@js8303]

I think being tall is so cool, lots of love to Jase❤

[@Squabetty]

What a wonderful boy! And what a lucky one to have such amazing women helping him grow up, confident and proud of who he is. Great interview!!!

[@jillwatkins78]

Thank you for your sweet words! My husband and I are so proud of Jase and his 4 siblings!

[@alizz1784]

Loved the part grandma laughing behind. Wat a fantastic attitude kiddo...be better. God bless you.

[@TheAwkRobot1997]

He is so sweet and confident- kudos to his family for raising him to love himself. As someone with the opposite condition, I have dwarfism, it’s so cool seeing how people with gigantism perceive the world and what adaptations they need themselves. (I’m 3’5”, 104cm tall.)

[@jillwatkins78]

Jase’s mom here! Thank you for your comment! We have a cheerleader on Jases football team with dwarfism! I love seeing these 2 living there best lives!! What a sad world we’d have if we all looked the same. Be proud! Sending love!

[@lovingmayberry307]

I smiled through the whole video! What a great kid, love the confidence! Good job, mom and granny! 🩵

[@jillwatkins78]

Thank you! So proud of my boy!

[@AndMar87]

Jase after you finish your sports career, I'm sure you could be an incredible motivational speaker. You have an amazing attitude! It's so awesome to see a child love himself. Rock On!

[@a389whjf]

amazing kid. amazing mom. Wonderful story and glad he's positive about his condition and thinking of the benefits of it. It must be so hard to manage but I hope he can keep his weight down especially since we don't know what health risks he may have internally. Take good care of yourselves and you'll maximize your happiness :)

[@TankGuy123]

"this kid ten years old how?!"🤣🤣🤣🤣 this kid funny!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 "straight to the nba" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mutahharali6210]

I like how he isn't upset about his condition, and he see's it in a positive way. Really good kid with a good heart.

[@erikaballard5224]

I love this kid!!! He's got the best personality and confidence and I'm looking forward to seeing him play for the Lakers!!!

[@martybob55]

This young man has a great sense of self and confidence. His parents are to commended. I hope Jase is able to have the surgery/treatment to control the potential health issues that might come his way. Great interview…and information!

[@TheeBratzDollxox]

Awww what an absolute sweetie!! And it’s so great that He has a very loving family ❤❤❤

[@jillwatkins78]

He is very loved and we’re so proud of him!

[@BipandBatsDN]

My daughter’s 10 and 5’7” she’s already the tallest kid in school like I was. Entire lifetime of being told we couldn’t be the age we said. Love the spirit my man’s got! We hope we meet Jase one day!

[@jillwatkins78]

Thats awesome! I’m Jase’s mom and I was 5’7 at 10 also! I ended up at 5’9. We wish your daughter all the best!

[@nlorand9033]

I was an extremely small baby being born in the UK premature at just over 6 months back in 1963 when my mother was dying due to her kidneys failing. I was induced not expected to survive, I was in an incubator for about 4 months but my mother being relieved of my body ensured her kidneys were able to work again. I was 3 lb and remained quite small being just over 5 ft at 15 years old. My shoe size was UK 12. I stopped growing at 19 when I reached 6 ft 4" with shoe size UK 14. My father's brother all his family were over six foot His daughter was 6 ft 1. His sons were 6ft 2", 6ft 4" and 6 ft 8" Tallest in my class was a boy 6ft 9" at 17 years of age.

[@sharynmain2432]

It just goes to show you.. it is not over until… it’s over. Starting earlier in life at such a light weight and exceeding at the outcome. A lot of premature babies tend to lean towards smaller in size along with on going issues as they age, according to medical information. Maybe your genes outweighed the results since you have a predisposed indication of taller heights in your family origin? Quite a feat… as long as people get to have a relatively healthy life - is all one can ask for. Glad that you mother and yourself defied the odds. 😊

[@celesterrzzz]

he sounds so happy!! 2:53 and this part was so sweet💕

[@MsShanarun]

Being a mom, I am so tickled by his awesome mom and grandma. Way to support your boy!!

[@jillwatkins78]

Thank you so much! Proud of our boy!

[@kelsqi-books4835]

I've been watching for about 10 seconds and I already like him. Seems like a cool kid. Good job to his family, this kid is confident and he said he'd choose to be him again instead of someone else. I love that.

[@jillwatkins78]

Thank you! My husband and I try to make all 5 of our kids to love who they are!

[@militarydeviltube5014]

[@Skimask_096HJS]

Dude, as a ten year old, this is the type of kid I wanna be friends with. He just so confident and I love that

[@aiyananoelani8233]

this interview made my day!! I love how positive he is and “be grateful for how tall you are because other people might not be as tall as you” is such a good message

[@c0brah2OO2]

Such a happy kid this is awesome.

[@tirzah9929]

His sly little face when his granny said she didn’t want him to get too tall. Such a cutie

[@davidmb1595]

Happy to see someone this happy with such healthy self-esteem and optimism in this channel for a change. This video improved my day . Wish him and his famiy the best.

[@jghost9]

What a cool kid. Keep your positive outlook on life! You will go very far in life.

[@imogencemfer4241]

I love how much he loves himself and his mothers encouragement and love for him is so sweet

[@luciahoneybee]

Hi Jase! I'm loving your interview so far. I really appreciate your optimism, and I think you have a great sense of humor. That immediate "watch out, Lebron!" made me laugh out loud! 😂💛

[@Tiana0926]

I love how enthusiastic he is. He’s so confident in himself, I wish I had that kind of confidence! He seems like such a cool kid!

[@chocolatekyppcookie]

Jase has such a good sense of humour! What a kind hearted kid!❤

[@hoglinofficial]

yea bro is so cool

[@ballerbscott]

This kid was blessed. He will have a very lucrative career because of his size. Whether in sports or entertainment: or both. I’m looking at Andre the Giant 2.0 here, I really hope that doesn’t come off offensive. Genuinely he is something spectacular.

[@jillwatkins78]

Jases mom here and I love your comment! We definitely hope he continues his confidence and has a huge future!

[@blufox7760]

There’s some risk factors for health that go along with this condition. He might have a shorter life span.

[@DavFN123]

@@blufox7760 Or he might get too tall. They should consider making him hit puberty early so he doesn't get too tall for his spine

[@Seang7MX]

Seems a bit rude to say that below the comment of his mother ​@@blufox7760

[@eustazz28]

thank you for that positive energy and for your good parenting. Your child deserves the world and i hope the best for you @@jillwatkins78

[@BodyBoujie]

What a cutie! I wish that since we're speaking of his size, we could have seen him in comparison to his mom, you (interviewer), other children his age, or maybe even just standing up..Him being the world's tallest child and loving the attention, I kept waiting to see his standing size, and not just seated..

[@ElusiveAries]

Agreed, I kept waiting for that

[@jillwatkins78]

Jases mom here! We did film him standing next to all of us but it didn’t make the cut for the video I guess. Bummer!

[@BodyBoujie]

@@jillwatkins78 Hi Jase's mom! Yes, I saw it today! Such a sweet, gentle giant..You're such an amazing Mom! Ty for sharing him with the world.. Nuff luv from NY💓

[@craftychickenlady]

Thank you for sharing your story with us, Jase!

[@lauraweiss7875]

I hope this youngster can continue to play sports without the dangers created by his abnormally large heart. A long healthy life is more important than being a sports hero. A 10-year doesn’t understand that but it’s good to see that his mom does.

[@leighleigh747]

Mama you are doing an incredible job keep up the good work... Its amazing the confidence you have instilled in him helped him build... Learning to love yourself is something most adults haven't learned to do let alone a ten year old😊😊😊

[@jillwatkins78]

Thank you so much for your sweet words! My husband and I try to teach all 5 of our kids to love life!

[@olandsmith2660]

Yup and keeps him educated on whats going on. Not just "you are just big."

That’s awesome. I had a 6’3 friend when I was 12. He didn’t like basketball, I think it’s so cool jace does.
