Showcasing the student walking through school hallways with a white cane, the video also includes Ashton’s mother encouraging parents to teach their children about blind students, and asks children to include others who have disabilities.
“Inclusion starts at home and parents should talk to their kids about these things before sending them to school every year. It will make a difference for my son if you have these kind of talks with your kids,” the captionon the original postread, in part.
“Teach them to not only be kind but to look past differences this year and make a new friend like my son,” Ashton’s mother also wrote over the video.
The video has gone viral on social media, with many highlighting the importance of teaching children to be kind and include others who may not look or act like them.
Jackman’s Instagram Story plea comes after his showcase of “cheat meals.” The star has recently been using his Instagram to reveal his meals at different restaurants.
Sharing a post on Monday, Jackman announced that he enjoyed two burgers atGordon Ramsay Burgerin London. Hissnaps also includedonion rings and mac and cheese from the restaurant as he filmed himself asking where chefGordon Ramsaywas.
“My social media has morphed into a food blog or vlog or both?” theGreatest Showmanactor’s caption read. “@gordongramwe’re backkkkkk! PS I also had 2 burgers but ate them before taking the photo.”
Back in July, Jackman shared more pictures from Gordon Ramsay Burger, while asking fans to “not walk” but run to the London-based restaurant if they’re in the area.
