Teen Girl Asks Autistic Boy to Prom, and His Dad’s Post Goes Viral
A few years ago, Mike Larson shared a touching story on Facebook that continues to warm hearts. His son Jon, who has autism, was invited to prom by Maddi, a senior at Mike’s school. She met Jon through a club that connects students with special needs and wanted him to experience a memorable prom night.
Maddi went the extra mile—she wore Jon’s favorite color (orange), booked a table at a restaurant serving his favorite foods (chocolate milk, fries, and chicken fingers), and made sure to get his parents’ blessing before asking him.
