US mother Kimberly Jones recorded her son, Keaton, after he called her to pick him up from school because he was too afraid to eat lunch with the other kids.

“They make fun of my nose. They call me ugly. They say I have no friends,” Keaton says through tears in the clip that has been viewed more than 17 million times.

“Just out of curiosity, why do they bully?” he asks. “What’s the point of it? Why do they enjoying taking innocent people and finding a way to be mean?”
