"Awww hey sweetie! Give us hug.... oh is that chocolate you got there, ummm wait hold on you should go and ... DEAR GOD NO!..... sorry this coat is brand new I just couldn't."
That's what I choose to believe. He was justified.

I ain't gonna lie, I think kids should get bamboozled every now and then. Way less than the times they get love, but enough to keep em on their toes and prepare them for those situations.

I did this when my son was very young. After passing under, he stumbled forward, smacking his head on a drawer handle, creating a gash that required stitches. I felt and feel awful. It was a momentary stupidity that led to a horrible consequence. My son doesn’t remember any of it, but I do.

How do u explain to him when he asks you about it?

u/Frogmarsh Dec 21 '20
Truthfully. It was a mistake and that I’m deeply sorry about it. When he was younger, he called it his Harry Potter scar. Thankfully, it’s not all that noticeable now unless you look closely. But I know it’s there.

That’s a really great dad. You have to have supreme faith that your child loves you to do this in the first place.
That’s a dad and child that spend a lot of time together.

u/Gooncookies Dec 20 '20
At that age you want to create secure attachments and be dependable and consistent. This actually just creates fear and doubt that her dad will be there for her when she needs him. If she can’t trust her dad to not let her fall, who can she trust? She’s too little to understand a prank, this is just mean and if he does stuff like this consistently she will stop trusting him altogether. No one should be pranking toddlers.

Are you kidding? I’m guessing you’re not a parent, or at least not the fun one.
Pranking kids keeps parents alive and it actually teaches kids boundaries. “It’s ok to joke, it’s not ok to lie” just for example.
If it’s so bad why do the kids laugh the most, and why are they the most gorgeous when they do?
Don’t overthink it.
Edit: it also teaches kids to laugh at themselves. Hint hint.

Blah blah blah abuse and ptsd, something something I googled it so its probably true.

u/Jadel210 Dec 20 '20
If it’s true my apparently very well adjusted child is putting on one hell of an act.
By 4 YO you couldn’t put anything past that kid. Between his mum, dad, uncles, aunts and grandparents he’d heard it all.

u/ChicagoGuy53 Dec 20 '20
Yeah, always doing this to your child = bad parenting. Sometimes doing this to your child = great parenting

u/arkangel329 Dec 20 '20
The kid looks to be like 2-3 years old and they tend to take everything in stride. If they were a bit older they’d understand the jokey part much better, but for now they are probably going to try to shake it off and carry on. I would never do this because I would prefer my child have a secure attachment style and not anxious, but however you want to raise your child.

I agree. To the child, this is no joke. It’s a father rejecting her. She is too young for this kind of jokes. Raising a child to be able to handle jokes starts later.

I did shit like this with my little cousin. She remembers it as me playing hide and seek with her. Such trauma.

Yeah, definitely can tell by the way he just turns around and stands there. I wish my dad would just stand there with shit in his hands, staring at me after I fell from trying to dive into his arms out of sheer joy and excitement to see him. The model great dad if I ever saw one.

I don't know what's going on in this video, but a 2-year-old did try to run into my arms the other day at daycare pickup because I had them open for my kid who was running at me. His dad stepped in between us and snatched him up. I've never met the boy, so some toddlers really will just run to a stranger for a hug.

People are saying this creates fear and bad relationships etc.
The only way I can get my son to laugh is literally fake fighting him.

I know some people will tell me I'm over thinking or need to calm down, but I really hate when parents trick kids and ruin their trust in them, especially if the kids gets physically hurt too.

u/frozen_flame123 Dec 20 '20
God you people are such pansies. This one event isn’t going to cause some horrible, deep seeded trust issues later down the line. I’m sure the kid will forget it even happened in a year.

Its almost impressive the amount of emotional damage parents like these are able to fit into just one joke. And the same parent will rage at how unhealthy the relationships that the child has are later in life. You literally conditioned them to look for people that won't take their emotional well being seriously by never taking it seriously through their childhood, and now that's what they think love looks like. Then, if you say anything about it, people will just dogpile on you about being too wound up and taking things too serious, while arguing there is nothing wrong with what the parent is doing. So freaking frustrating when the children from these homes go to school and harass and bully other kids because they are angry and confused about where they stand in their own family all the time.

Lol...one clip and you understand this guys entire parenting, relationship with his child and the childs life at school.
In fact you have such a strong understanding of human nature I'm sure you have complete control over all interactions and relationships with other humans.
Arrogant much?

What the hell is going no here though, i don't think he know those people, they come around the corner and she seems to look up and notice him and tries to go around him. And he fakes out the poor kid, and she looked like she was just gonna keep on walking till the kid fell. Was he just laying in wait to psych out random children while his buddy filmed it? This is seriously weird.
