"It is important that you finish your schooling before athletics or boxing," Manny Pacquiao advises 5-year old Noah Quianzon via youtube.com/watch?v=C7UkFUEuCHI
"Follow your parents' advice. Their wisdom will guide you best," Pacman emphasizes.
Noah, recently diagnosed with autism, has seen the video clip and framed memento but is unsure of their meaning.
For Noah's dad Joseph, the gloves represent Manny's warrior spirit.
"Pacquiao fights whomever is placed in front of him. No excuses nor fear. We fight the stigma attached to autism with unconditional love. Our opponents may be different, but our approach is similar."
The Quianzons (Rowena, Joseph, brothers Moses 6 and Jacob 3) celebrate Noah's remarkable improvement since they joined the Son-Rise Program (a systematic approach aimed at helping parents of autistic children. They have formed the not-for-profit ASD Climber Foundation to raise awareness and offer emotional and educational support to families seeking alternative therapies.
"We encourage parents to learn more and not give up. Knowledge is 100% of the battle. Every parent sacrifices for their children. There is access to cutting edge therapy that can improve your child's future."
