Annie Yi's Son Recounts Childhood Teasing Over Shoulder Blades, Finds Comfort in Mother's Words

Annie Yi's son, "Little Harry" (Ethan Yu), recently shared a touching personal experience on a program about being teased for his "special body structure" as a child. He recounted how his protruding shoulder blades led to him being called an "alien" and an "aberration" by peers during swimming lessons.

However, a comforting word from his mother, Annie Yi, transformed his perspective. She told him, "You are an angel," a phrase that empowered him to disregard the hurtful comments and find inner strength. This emotional journey deeply moved the celebrity guests on the show.

This child is malnourished, isn't he?

Following the program, Annie Yi elaborated on her son's childhood struggles. She explained that Harry was exceptionally thin when he was younger, often drawing comments about malnutrition. She later discovered he had congenital issues with his respiratory system and bite, which, once identified and treated, helped him gain weight.

His thin frame contributed to the prominence of his shoulder blades. Yi recalled how, after being mocked multiple times at the pool, she consistently reassured Harry of his angelic nature. This maternal support allowed him to develop self-assurance, and he later gifted her a cherished painting of an angel. The heartwarming mother-son interaction resonated with viewers, who praised Yi as a "great mother" and called Harry an "angel baby."
