When 12-year-old Ali Meksassi goes to a park or play centre with his brothers he is often left on the sidelines watching them have fun.
Ali was born with 49, XXXXY syndrome, a type of chromosome disorder that impacts on his motor skills and prevents him from climbing. He also has mild autism and ADHD, which makes it difficult to participate in spaces with loud music.
"Generally when we go to other places he just observes, [he] doesn't interact," his mother Eman Meksassi says.
