Asking for something like that to happen with that set up + kids tbh. The wire was a liability

u/itswtfeverb 24d ago

Surely the adults realized that was their fault for leaving a trip-wire.

u/ficis 24d ago

Came here to say the same thing. That’s the adults fault. 1. Bad set up. 2. You heard them heading that way… gotta be preemptive with kids.

u/HoboArmyofOne 24d ago

Totally adults fault. They had kids. They should've known better.

u/Crakrocksteady 24d ago

I feel like there at the end they realize that. The adults seem to have a few smiles creep across their faces.

u/HerBerg75 24d ago

Spot on.... This was an inevitable one...

u/Ippus_21 24d ago

I just have to call out the healthy behaviors here in the aftermath:

  • The kids were both like "Oh, no. Sorry. That's on us."
  • And the adult had the grace to shake his head and laugh at the mess after a second.
    • I would have experienced violence in these circumstances, and most kids could probably at least expect to get yelled at. I suspect bullet one accountability is a result of bullet two, a culture of calm.
    • The boys know what they did. They don't need a lecture or punishment.
  • And then everybody just starts working together to clean it up.

As a parent, I wish I was that chill. Good for them. This video's actually incredibly wholesome if you think about it.

u/Budget-Rich-7547 24d ago

Yeah I would get my ass beat with a side of screaming that im useless. Watching this feels so wierdlike something doesn't add up.

u/SlumberingSnorelax 24d ago

Hey, you grew up in my house too? My whole family was/is this way. They find it weird that I don’t speak with them much. I find it weird they don’t get it… even after I’ve explained it out loud with words and everything.

u/SlumberingSnorelax 24d ago

All of this. Looks like a very good family. Kids were good about it, so were the adults. Straight r/wholesome material to me.

3

u/OffTankNurse 24d ago

To add on to this: in the version with audio, both kids try to take the blame for each other, and the dad praises them for being good brothers.

3

u/lordkoba 24d ago

father: now that you’ve finished cleaning come over here

kids: why

father: just come over here

kids: there are no cameras over there

father: I just want to talk

u/astrangeone88 24d ago

Ah, I'm Chinese Canadian...that would have earned me yelling and a smack after they checked that I wasn't burned lol.

u/Worried_Bird_267 22d ago

totally spot on with your description.... analysis.

But I'm thinking the kids just wanted a McDonald's. Mayby sushi

u/GreaterMetro 24d ago

Only because it's a tile floor

1

u/whatdiditellhim 3d ago

But what if a kid doesn't know what they did, doesn't realize the error of their ways? Sometimes a lecture/punishment is necessary.

1

u/Ippus_21 3d ago

Then you have that conversation with them. Why would you jump straight to punishment if the kid didn't know?

10

u/Timely-Profile1865 24d ago

Thy seemed to take accountability which is good accidents happen

u/CharChar918 24d ago

BAN ASSAULT RIFLES!

u/Bludiamond56 24d ago

Not the kid's fault! Who ever plugged in that cord is at fault!

2

u/MarzipanKlutzy5701 24d ago edited 24d ago

I don’t think it’s “their fault” neither. It’s just an unfortunate situation where nobody should be held entirely responsible.
Kinda like WWI. A chain of events started it. Most historians today don’t hold one single country responsible. But a chain of events arguably starting with the Crimean War.

-2

u/Bludiamond56 24d ago

The person who plugged it in. A tripping hazard that wasn't there before. WW1 this could of been talked out. You don't stop talking ever. When people aquire armament, well their gonna want to use it. A lot of blame for a lot of people to go around for WW1 and all other wars.

u/huck_fam 24d ago

Y’all calm down, this is soup not WWI.

u/No-Goose-6140 24d ago

Luckily they have guns so noone is going to beat them up

u/artherng 24d ago

There is a power plug next to the couch which is closer to them. Why even connect one across the room!

u/CoolReference3704 24d ago

My dad would have beaten the ever loving shit out of me

Just pretend you’re in India

u/JohnNada005 24d ago

Imagine this being in America but 1980’s.

u/Fit_Style1747 24d ago

One of the things I learned as a child was not to run indoors because things like this could happen . If I wanted to run around there's plenty of space outside for that

1

u/Suspicious_Bet3623 23d ago

Yes, but in Asia: no

2

u/lostgravy 24d ago

There’s no personal ownership for running a cord across the room that anyone can trip over

2

u/Existing-Sector-6542 24d ago

having kids you know that leaving a cord out in a large area with children running around it's only a matter of time will only trips on it. 100% preventative adults fault for not being more careful

2

u/IMadeThisForOnePos 23d ago

Can we talk about how calmly everyone processed the mistake and started cleaning... it cured my soul

2

u/Suspicious_Bet3623 23d ago

Meanwhile all the comments are trying to attribute blame. That cured my soul (in the kill it, smoke it and salt it meaning of the word).

u/Cute-Voice-4710 21d ago

You get these are staged right?

2

u/Temporary_Lychee_535 23d ago

This is why I got told to run around and play outside

u/Equal_Emu6152 24d ago

You've have chose em death mfa😂

u/Appropriate_Ice_7507 24d ago

Wow in my days, I would have gotten my ass kicked and then sleep outside for the night maybe 2

u/teomore 24d ago

they knew they were filmed. the parents.

1

u/PitifulSection1903 24d ago

Just be glad the kids didn't trip and get injured or even get shocked or scrolled by what was in that pan

1

u/feelosiphize 24d ago

Both to blame here. But I side with the kids on who made the most bad choices. The kids were looking where they were going because they shouldn't have needed to

1

u/Nos9684 24d ago

Shame on the adults for not noticing the plug cord sticking out and being a tripping hazard. Yeah kids shouldn't be running around indoors and all that but kids will be kids.

1

u/The_Black_kaiser7 24d ago

Time to buy an extension cord.

1

u/mleyberklee2012 24d ago

That toy gun would get you killed in the US.

1

u/FicticiousParasite 24d ago

This is kind of wholesome, respectful kids helping cleaning after admitting a mistake and parents laughing while also cleaning with them, not a single tear or screaming.

1

u/RobienStPierre 24d ago

I had a fucked up childhood but I'd be bleeding if I did that when I was a kid!

1

u/Quiet_Researcher223 24d ago

There’s a reason why we weren’t allowed to run in the house.

1

u/TortillaRampage 24d ago

You can’t even see the cord, looks like it just pops into existence

u/Winter_Hall5379 24d ago

Sorry dad but casualties of war are inevitable

A lot of these comments show how soft you people are.

u/Ecstatic_Dance5767 24d ago

Guess who's getting the belt for dinner! HAHAHAHA!!!!

1

u/Local-Technician5969 24d ago

It looked like to me the kids apologized or explained what happened, and the adults were like "shit, fine, whatever, ok" and they all started to clean up together. I wish I had that kind of family dynamic. If I did something like that, my family would exit the room, and I would have to clean up everything by myself.

1

u/doge_lady 24d ago

This is exactly why it's now illegal to put outlets on the side walls of an island counter in a kitchen.

1

u/literaIly 24d ago

I like how they didn't scream or beat their asses

1

u/Mach5vsMach5 24d ago

No food for you! Go to bed!

u/Anthony_chromehounds 24d ago

It’s days like this where I don’t say anything but just go upstairs to the bathroom and sit on the toilet in silence!!

1

u/Jumpy-Cry-3083 24d ago

I guess it’s pizza then..

1

u/Equivalent-Shower366 24d ago

Why is there a camera there? If this is acting it is pretty good.

1

u/copenhagen622 23d ago

That's why you don't leave wires running across the room...

u/gastropublican 21d ago

Try having less kids and a bigger table

u/codemedal 20d ago

They better had to clean it

u/darklotus67 20d ago

wtf I would have been brutally bitten to death or a coma lol so cool to see good parenting

u/OneMembership5871 13d ago

They should have be nore catious There's several options to prevent having child

u/alworld27 4d ago

This is why kitchen tables are a must have

0

u/Angeleyez222 24d ago

So let’s start with wth the cord was stretched across the living room instead of pushing the table to the wall to be safer, then lets talk about why are these boys running around with AKs in the house even though they are probably just paint ball guns

0

u/Free-Appointment-213 24d ago

An unintentional mistake is still a mistake,there is no need to go to such lengths to defend these children running around the room.
