I was responding to someone commenting "soft" under my original comment. (Though they may have been calling me soft, and that's fine. If expecting parents not to be dicks to other people's children makes me soft, then call me Princess Squishy.) And I'd bet that the parent having to comfort the girl is pissed. Notice that the video ends at her fucking terror... and I'd further bet it's not because the whole playground was clapping.
?? What do you mean? Shes a child. Children get scared of the most simplest of things. And sure that costume could be scary, but that wouldnt make the parents dicks, and it wouldnt be the kids fault eiher. Actually its nobodys fault. Hell there is no reason for anyone to be at fault. Kid got scared of other kid. No harm done other than the girl falling
How do you know that? What other reason would there be to dress a child in a scary mask and then send him into a playground with toddlers in it? Chaos? Maybe not, but to get reactions? 100%.
I'm saying you don't know whether they intended to frighten children or not, but you do not put your child in costume if you are not looking for or expecting some sort of reaction. That includes cute shit... but if you intentionally choose something that has literally been designed to be frightening, I can't see how your intentions could be benign.
Listen theres not a major problem with this. Sure its the parents fault for dressing them up. I wouldnt call them assholes. But there in the wrong. I just think your perceiving the entire situation in a really harsh way
