Santa Lies Down on Floor for Boy with Autism



CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Brayden Deely's parents couldn't convince him to sit on Santa's lap. So to give Brayden the full experience Santa went the extra mile by getting on the ground.

Children going to the mall and posing for a picture on Santa's lap is an age-old tradition. But what happens when a kid doesn't want to?

Well that question came up and SouthPark Mall's Santa answered by getting on the ground with little Brayden. That moment was captured in a touching photo.

"We would not have Santa pictures otherwise," said Erin Deely, Brayden's mom.

The incredible image was taken Sunday during Caring Santa, an event put on by Autism Speaks and other organizations to give kids affected by autism a chance to have a more typical experience with Santa.
