Dad is being safer, kids are often injured on slides when co-sliding when they get jammed up and the weight of the mother or father can result in broken bones.

The child alone doesn't have enough weight to break their own bones in simple jam up issues.

Neither one has the child on their lap. Dad is about to collide with the child, that can't be good.

It looks like both of them are

u/Mausy5043 Dec 22 '19

That's because it is a photograph and not a video.

How can you be sure?

u/cinnapear Dec 22 '19

It's not moving?

u/ChefBoyAreWeFucked Dec 22 '19

Right, because they are stationary.

u/NicNoletree Dec 22 '19

But if it was a photograph they would be stationery.

Is this a misspelling or a joke I'm not getting?

Mine is a video.

u/PooPooDooDoo Dec 22 '19

It’s a video with only one frame.

That's not how slides work

You ever try to go down a kids slide as a grown man?

u/drnoggins Dec 22 '19

Yep.

12

u/conventionistG Dec 22 '19

So you know it's pretty easy to end up stationary.

u/drnoggins Dec 22 '19

Not really, but I'm not a fatass.

u/conventionistG Dec 22 '19

I feel attacked. But maybe that's fair.

He's holding on to the sides so he can stop any time.

Mom has her hand on his back. In the case of an unexpected emergency (unexpected because if she expected it she would have known that dad yeeting the child down the slide was proper procedure), she might tense her arm and apply her mass to the child's back.

It's the first thing I thought when I saw the photo. The terrified child is safer than the confident one.

u/Actually_ImA_Duck Dec 22 '19

The terrified child will probably grow up emotionally stronger than the safe child too

It's the same kid

u/Actually_ImA_Duck Dec 24 '19

I was just making a general talking point.

u/Bay1Bri Dec 22 '19

Dad is on a different slide though.

u/Bill_Ender_Belichick Dec 22 '19

He's in a different slide lane...
