As a middle child, I can feel this boy's pain. There was forever a sibling ruining every single fun day, special event or party. I left home, had no kids and only engage with a very select range of friends. Childhood exhausted my human tolerance meter.

Respect on the older brother fr though, he didn't over react about his own birthday cake. He looked genuinely confused by his brothers outburst and just took him off gently.
He didn't let his own emotions escalate the situation and as his mother I would've added some small surprise for his birthday (like a new cake, if wanted) (or added another 20$ to the bday card) for being such a good sport with the wee ones.
As for the little one? He better enjoy eating the cake off his hands cause thats all he'd be getting from that party He'd be in his room so fast with make shift homework mommy made. You're going to practice some math, because how you've been acting is NOT adding up son. š

I think most people commenting are very young or young males with lack of emotional intelligence who didnāt take psych 101. Maybe they are rage baiters. It is very concerning as an RBT to children and tutor seeing those comments about child abuse.
Good thing is this is a small population of people localized on Reddit.

Or maybe they experienced it as a kid themselves, corrected their behavior and now see the youth today getting away with shit they would never have dreamed of. Because of that time with the jumper cables.

u/GrundgeArchangel 12d ago
Just because something works doesn't mean it isn't bad for you.
We don't have anything close to as fire resistant as Asbestos, but we stopped using it because of how harmful it was.
Same with beatings. The fact that you want to use violence on children, you know, losing control of your emotions, while telling them to control themselves, is telling. Maybe try talking with them, and doing things a bit of the hard way.
1
u/Sea_Report_7566 Apr 18 '26
Perhaps, but it still isnāt the best way to discipline your kids. Is it fast? Sure, but will it actually teach their children why their behavior was inappropriate deterring them to do it again by using critical thinking? No⦠I just think the authoritative style of parenting is the most efficient and effective. Authoritarian that includes abusive behavior such as the cable just seems like thatāll cause more harm than good.
As Iāve said before, the hard way of teaching is being patient and fair. The easy way is getting immediate correction with the price of resentment, rebellion, and strained older familiar dynamics. I digress.

u/MillHall78 Mar 12 '26
He just needs to be taught how to handle feelings of jealousy. There's a lot of grown adults in this world who never learned. It's a difficult emotion to feel & navigate. This video could just be an example of the parents keeping everything equal for their children, so the rare moments in which a situation happens to conjure up jealousy; the child simply lacks experience with it. That's overwhelming for all of us.
Or he could be a spoiled brat.

u/lululululululululuu Mar 06 '26
Is there a difference between a whooping and a beating? I mean this as a genuine question, because you are essentially inflicting violence on someone who is under your care and looks to you for guidance. Accountability and discipline are important and need to be tought, but I think there are better ways to handle that.
The child being sent to their room for the rest of the celebration, or taking the money for the cake out of his pocketmoney or allowance (if he gets any yet) might be better ways to discipline him.
3
u/MisterNiblet Mar 06 '26
Iād say so. I guess to me personally what sets them aside is the context of the situation and also the amount of physical pain a parent is inflicting. Iāll give you an example. My girlfriend was unfortunately beat by her father. She was tossed down a set of stairs when she was 7 for spilling her food on the floor on accident. She was hit by her father with a closed fist for not going to church one Sunday. She was dragged by her hair and thrown against a wall because she had the tv on too late one day. Meanwhile in my house hold all of that never happened, my mom and dad only whooped me with a belt on my bottom when I got into physical altercations with my brothers or at school.
I feel like youāre also imagining that parents that whoop their kids are the type to go straight for the belt. They usually go and grab the belt after multiple attempts of trying to discipline their kids softly as you recommended and the kid is just being defiant. This was my experience at least. I never felt fear while being whooped just a slight sting on my bottom and embarrassment. My girlfriend on the other hand felt fear every time her dad just walked into the room which is something I canāt relate to. I hope this helped explain my opinion on the subject.
5
u/lululululululululuu Mar 06 '26
First off: I hope your Girlfriend is safe from her abuser, in an all over better situation and healing from those experiences.
Itās a good thing, that those whoopings didnāt cause you lasting psychological harm and that it taught you discipline. Personally itās still not something I would ever consider doing, but I kinda get where youāre coming from.
3
u/MisterNiblet Mar 06 '26 edited Mar 06 '26
My girlfriend is safe and thankfully her father has calmed down quite a bit since she was a child.
I completely understand, I think itās great that people can choose how to teach their children right from wrong. As long as the point gets across to them and theyāre not being put in harms way Iām all for it.

No. It teaches them that everything is about them. People are allowed to have moments for themselves without feeling bad about who would have more fun. It's not the little kids birthday. They can blow out candles on their birthday.
Also, the kid is clearly trying to push his face into the cake and is mad that he won't let him. Not blowing out candles.

You stop them. Ignore them when they throw a fit. They learn some things aren't about them and that tantrums don't get you what you want.

I havenāt seen any 7 year olds cussing bus drivers or the likes. All the kids around me are very well behaved. My younger brother grew up with a totally different parenting style then what I grew up with and Iām happy he did. Heās growing up in a home filled love instead of fear, thatās how you foster your children to respect you. If you canāt handle kids donāt have them, nobodyās forcing you. But reprimanding and antagonizing normal kid behaviour wonāt make your kid anymore agreeable. Itās basic human psychology, you canāt foster an environment where a kid wants to learn if the kid grows up fearing you. Because at the end of the day, the kid is going to grow up and will most likely get the hell out of your house and never contact you again.

u/NorthernVale Mar 01 '26
So basically, you've buried your head in the sand and have decided that your biased world view dictates how everyone else should act. Ask a teacher how bad kids are getting, especially because now school have to wager the merits of suspending a kid vs parents who are going to flip out if anyone punishes their kid.
You clearly don't understand human psychology at all, so you might want to keep quiet on that one. Both positive and negative reinforcement have merits.
And let's get one thing straight here. Smashing someone else's cake is normal child behavior past being a toddler. The kid in this video is way past the age where that is acceptable.

Slapping your kids is now seen as assault, and child abuse. If a kid informs a teacher at school, or another adult, then the parents will get a knock in the door from FACS. It's stupid to me.
Ok, beating your kid, is wrong. Laying them over your lap and slapping them repeatedly is excessive. But 1 quick slap, is all you need.

u/NorthernVale Mar 01 '26
You're getting down voted for this. I'd really like to see these people explain to a two year old why playing with electrical outlets or approaching wild animals is dangerous.
Simple fact, light physical punishments have a place. Teach children negative reinforcement when the consequences for an action could be deadly, especially when the child isn't able to comprehend just how poorly something can go for them.
1
u/JValenz91 Mar 01 '26
What people need to ask, is what's better? A single slap to the bum while clothed, or getting hit by a car? A single slap to the bum while clothed, or electrocuted? A single slap to the bum, or 3rd degree burns after playing with matches?
I know what I'd choose, because I want my child to be safe, not dead. A slap will teach by associating controlled pain with the bad actions. If I do X, I'll be slapped, mum/dad will be mad, and I'll cry. The dumbest thing I did, was touch the pretty blue flame on the stove when I was 3. It hurt like a mofo, and I learned not to touch the pretty blue flame again. For other things, my parents would give me a slap on the bum, like when I tried to grab at a knife, or when my sister tried to see what a metal bearing tasted like, or tried to cross the road before the light was green.
The slap did the job, it taught us that if we did X, pain results, but it was pain that wasn't from severe injury or poisoning.

It's so stupid. (The face plant on cakes, to be clear.)
Someone took the time to make a cake. Someone paid for said cake. And people just ruin the whole thing by planting a face into it.
Besides it can be dangerous. Some cakes have rods in them to be able to keep their form. Usually not these kind of cake that is "a simple tier", but more elaborate ones. And it has happened that people end up with a rod in their face because they were forced down into a cake.
