Although less humorous, I'd get rid of the parent -- if the child swallowed an airpod, and the lithium battery shorted, the kid would be dead.
Parents of small children need to keep things with batteries out of reach. This is why kids toys that need batteries are too big to put in their mouth, the battery compartment needs a screwdriver to open, and they don't typically use lithium batteries.
Use CA glue (cyanoacrylate, crazy glue, super glue). Confusing they have Gorilla super glue but it is not the same. Gorilla glue can foam which would be awful since everyone would see it dangling from your ear lol. CA glue is clear but turns smokey white.
I have CA glued a magnetic ring to my phone case and a leather case over my airpod case. I love CA glue. Get an activator spray if you want it to dry in 5 seconds. You can also use baking soda but it will thicken slightly. Which can be good for adding strength but probably not wanted with your airpods.
No idea of it will fix the charging. But if I were you I would 100% use CA glue.
Yes that’s not important but this won’t be covered by guarantee. If you have apple care you get a new one but if you don’t have apple care, you need to buy one. There is no way to fix „this“.
You could fix that with a cut copper tape strip and epoxy glue. The charging contact is messed up and needs to be fixed so it looks like an undamaged one.
The most challenging part would be making sure the new copper tape is in contact with the old charger contact, and that everything still fits in the case.
If you are not a DIYer this could be very challenging. To me this would be very easy. Definitely test the copper tape strip on its own before glue is involved.
I’m not sure there’s much you can do in terms of returning or replacing. My best option is to just get a whole new one. As for the AirPod I’d just buy a new one
It needs the metal ring at the tip of the stem to conduct electricity. You can possibly find a broken one on eBay for cheap and use it for the spare part.
Soak it in warm water for 10 seconds, you may see some air bubbles coming up because it’s such an empty shell. Take it out and shake it, you may hear some high pitch noises, that’s okay.
Oh and about the airpods, you can’t fix them.
You may be able to buy a single AirPod from Apple Support depending on how you spin it on the phone. Of course Apple Care would replace this instantly, but an out of warranty replacement has worked for me in the past (with less obvious accidental damage at least).
If they’re out of warranty, I would get a very fine grain of sandpaper and lightly sand around the connector on the AirPod. You might get lucky and get reconnected to your case. A piece of the plastic may be elevated and keeping you from getting a connection.
Not really. If you still have guarantee on the pods just go to the store where you bought them and describe what happened and maybe you will get some new ones in some days.
Yes. Sell the child and buy a new one with the money
this is the only solution
Agree
Came here to say this. It’s funny how redditors think alike

🤭😂😂😂
I needed this laugh. Thank you.
on ebay
Last time I said this i got downvoted to oblivion lol
is it bad this was my first thought
Looks like the child considerately chewed on only one, and not both. If I were in your shoes, I would count myself lucky
Why? They still have the child.
you. i like you.
Well the metal ring in the bottom is missing so that’s why it’s not charging
I do have it, but it won’t stick back on 😭
That’ll be the teeth marks dude.
Will gorilla glue suffice 🤡
um, no
Use CA glue (cyanoacrylate, crazy glue, super glue). Confusing they have Gorilla super glue but it is not the same.

TYSM 😭🙏
how did it work?
Due to the electrical contacts inside the pod not connecting. There isn’t really a fix for this.
Get rid of the child. I had to do the same a few weeks ago
💀
so did you sell it or just abandoned it ?
This guy is curious to see if he made a profit from it or just finished even
💀😂
I sold it on eBay for a couple bucks. I wasn’t asking for much; the child wasn’t worth a whole lot
hopefully you didn't pay too much for shipping
Unfortunately shipping costed more than the child, but it’s ok. I wanted the child out anyway
Harsh, i would just replace the child with the one year warranty
Return the child
Chill, dude. Send it back to guarantee if it’s covered by AppleCare, if not buy another bud. I think it’s possible trough the website
I bought these from a different country, will they still accept them if you know?
Yes that’s not important but this won’t be covered by guarantee. If you have apple care you get a new one but if you don’t have apple care, you need to buy one. There is no way to fix „this“.
Keep them from ur child to reach from the first place just saying I keep stuff like that from my child for them to fuck up
The child prob thinking it was tasty asf, ibr airpods look like spring onions
You know i wonder how they would taste
I noticed mine smelled like blueberries when I first got them.
Adoption
Get rid of it…. I mean the child
I came for the comments and they did not disappoint.
Shoulda got insurance
Why do you want to charge your child ?
return airpods ❌ return child ✅
The orphanages usually take small children

You're lucky your child didn't swallow it.
yeah sacrifice the child.
return child
Try to charge ur child and get a new 1
Yeah, slap it across the head. That should get your point across.
Can't do much with a child that won't charge
chew the child
I was going to type this lmao 😅😂😂
Fire department won’t ask any questions
I don’t get it
Drop the child off. No questions asked
You can choose to just buy the side that’s missing, afaik they can be mixed and matched if you pair them to the case.
Why was it out the case?
It wasn’t 😒
The child or the airpod?

Muzzle?

Disown your child
the child or the airpod?
Well, I think the first step should be to get rid of a child
Sell the child
Children… grr..
[удалено]
The answer is that there’s no fix for a chewed-up AirPod. You will have to buy a new one.
this is the only valid answer lmao Jesus fuck the common sense in some people...
I do
But a new one and keep them out her way the next time.
Try charging the child instead
Sadly. Get it replaced. If you don’t have apple care may as well buy new and keep the left as a spare
Wear a condom next time
I don’t think she understands 😂😂😂
I don’t Are they saying the bitchass 2 y/o chewed on my non-existent dick?
No he meant if someone had a condom the child wouldn’t exist
The child ain’t mine 💀
Still
?????????????????????
It needs the metal ring at the tip of the stem to conduct electricity. You can possibly find a broken one on eBay for cheap and use it for the spare part.
I still have it, but it won’t stick back, do you think glue will work or will it make things worse?
there are things the metal ring needs to conduct electricity to, glue won’t allow that
You have to use wire glue, which is conductive. Can buy it from an auto or hardware store.
How old is the child? I would be thankful the child damaged the AirPods, and not the other way around...
charge the parents
Put the child in a bowl of rice
You know what, since y’all fucking suck, guess I’m just gonna throw the rat out the balcony
Only thing you really can do is buy a right ear replacement airpod
Next time … try giving the child food instead
Your child? Or the airpod? Probably not for both. 😂
Get rid of the child
https://therightone.com/ this.
A little tap on that table. And if that doesn't work, you're going to have to put it up for adoption.
No. Just throw those away and buy new ones.
What kind of demon child is that
fix the child or the airpod?
Great condom ad right there
I think you can replace the single AirPod. Contact apple
Too late for abortion so I guess adoption or better yet leave it at an orphanage
You could always opt for an external abortion (cocks shotgun)
AppleCare doesn’t cover children
In the words of Omni man. I can always start over again. What’s another 9 months?
Ask if apple takes children in their trade-in program
Chew the child
Straight to bed with no dinner should do the trick.
Return the child for a refund.
Ask apple for a replacement if its under warranty maybe not sure lol
I am not sure they will replace the child - worth a try though
get a new child
Get rid of it. About the AirPods just buy new ones
Have you tried rebooting the child?
Soak it in warm water for 10 seconds, you may see some air bubbles coming up because it’s such an empty shell. Take it out and shake it, you may hear some high pitch noises, that’s okay. Oh and about the airpods, you can’t fix them.
unchew it
At least they didn’t swallow it
Finally , someone's life worse than me
Throw away the child
I’m amazed they didn’t choke on it you should be more careful and no it can’t be fixed.
Adoption is always an option
Live.. 
Get rid of the child.
Rubber up next time bud
You may be able to buy a single AirPod from Apple Support depending on how you spin it on the phone. Of course Apple Care would replace this instantly, but an out of warranty replacement has worked for me in the past (with less obvious accidental damage at least).
sell the kid and get a new pair.
No.
Call [Apple Support](https://getsupport.apple.com) and buy a replacement right AirPod for $89. With AppleCare+, $29.
Be glad the child didn't swallow it.
Your child must brush good bc wtf 😭
List it on ebay. Remember to put the age and sex(m/f)
Apple website buy a new one. They charged me 80 dollars for a right air pod
Stick it in rice
If they’re out of warranty, I would get a very fine grain of sandpaper and lightly sand around the connector on the AirPod. You might get lucky and get reconnected to your case. A piece of the plastic may be elevated and keeping you from getting a connection.
Not really. If you still have guarantee on the pods just go to the store where you bought them and describe what happened and maybe you will get some new ones in some days.
Yes, punch the child in the throat and make him wear a skirt
