Being a teen isnโt easy.
With all of the growth and changes your body and mind is going through itโs hard to keep up from day to day.
Add on the stress of dating or dances and itโs a whole new thing to worry about.
Homecoming dances are a high point for many 17-year-olds, eagerly anticipated throughout high school years.
In Las Vegas, Daniel Rivas, a teen with Down syndrome, was no different.
He was all set to enjoy this annual event, but he faced a significant hurdle: he didnโt have a date after being turned down by a girl he asked.


This is where Kylie Fronius, a compassionate classmate of Danielโs, stepped into the picture.
Upon learning about Danielโs situation, she didnโt hesitate to ask him to be her date. Speaking to Fox5 Las Vegas, Kylie said, โI donโt think of kids that have a disability as being different. I think of them just being a normal person learning in a different way.โ
Tonya, Danielโs mother, was deeply moved by Kylieโs gesture.
She expressed her gratitude by saying, โItโs not about that Daniel has a disability. Itโs Kylie didnโt see any disability. That is what your heart wants as a mom.โ


The local news station, Fox5 News, caught wind of this heartwarming story and decided to feature the teens in a special broadcast.
The segment quickly captured the hearts of viewers, showcasing the genuine kindness and spirit of youth.


Unbeknownst to the teens, Fox5 News had planned even more surprises for their homecoming night.
Hosted by Monica Jackson of the Fox5 Surprise Squad, the evening was set to be unforgettable.
The first surprise was a luxurious Rolls Royce to transport them to the dance in style, making their entrance as grand as their spirits.


โYour story touched so many people,โ Jackson told the excited teens.
Prior to the dance, they were treated to a dinner at a high-end local bistroโa place Tonya revealed she could never afford to take her family, moving her to tears.


The surprises didnโt stop at dinner.
As Daniel and Kylie arrived at the dance, they were greeted by a red carpet, leading them into the school.
The night seemed perfect as they danced together, surrounded by their classmates.


But the evening had more in store.
Interrupting the dance, Jackson announced from the stage, โWeโre not done,โ and proceeded to gift Daniel and Kylie, along with their families, two free trips to Disneyland, adding even more excitement to their already magical night.
