But I've come to realize it's more painful to be silent."The foundation also strives to give kids safe spaces. Erdman used his wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation to have a brand-new gym installed in not only his own high school, but that of his school's rival high school as well.
"People contact me personally all the time," Erdman told"GMA.""Maybe I haven't been through exactly what they have, but I'm here to help if I can."
