Autistic boy, aged 5, phones 999 after his Mum collapsed!

Link.

The 5 year old received a bravery award from the National Autistic Society and his 3 year old sister, who is also Autistic, received a "Well done" fo remaining calm on the phone to the Emergency services, who at first thought it was a hoax call as the boy thought his Mum was dead!

Thoughts?

Already posted this, but I do like how brave the boy and his sister were considering the circumstances.

Why is it that when I hear about something like this, instead of feeling proud and happy for the person I'm mildly annoyed and give it a big "whatever"?
