Father Makes Heartbreaking Plea To End Bullying Of His Special Needs Son

No matter what school, what age, whether it's online or in person, bullying knows no boundaries.

And unfortunately for 7-year-old Jackson Bezzant, he has become a victim of this ongoing issue.

Jackson's bullying mostly comes from the fact that he has Treacher Collins syndrome, a condition that affects an individual's bones and other pieces of tissue in their face, the U.S National Library of Medicine reports.

It often results in a cleft palate and a small jaw, as well as affecting the cheekbones and many other underdeveloped bones. Outside of physical issues, it can affect an individual's respiratory functions and even vision.

Treacher Collins syndrome ultimately creates somewhat of a deformity, and while it can be corrected, most children spend the majority of their childhood in and out of operating rooms in order to correct the issue.

Jackson suffers from these issues, and as a result, he faces severe bullying from his peers at school. The bullying is so intense that it has even left the 7-year-old contemplating suicide.

In a plea to save his son's life, Jackson's father, Dan, recently wrote a Facebook post explaining the level of bullying Jackson endures, revealing it has left him depressed, friendless, and with little hope of a normal life.
