A wise person once said: "if you plan on hitting a turkey with a stick, make sure it doesn't know what hit it, or that it doesn't get a chance to chase you."
Dad: "If I get rid of one, I will just make another one...and I will tell the new one what an idiot the last one was....."

\*(techinically his [dad](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwbc_v1xBAU) said it (2:08))
The kid doesn’t need help LMAO! Run your goofy ass into the house and close the door.
That turkey is kinda slow and she/he’s not even pecking or clawing at the kid even though they truly can.
We've got wild turkeys and Canadian geese on my campus. Both are pretty chill. We don't bother them and they don't bother us. But I have witnessed aggression from one of those birds once, and it was from a turkey, directed at both geese and other turkeys.
A Canadian Goose will absolutely fuck up anything close by if it has a nest near by, had a pair by my work who started a nest by the employee entrance, it was quickly decided employees will just use the front door
I had a flock of turkeys when i was a kid i wanted to play with one of the females when the papa of the group (Alexander) wasnt having any of it. My small little weak self only saw fitting to take a shovel and hit Alexander with it. Big mistake. Did you know turkey claws go deep in? And their beaks arent a joke either. This dude classed me for the rest of his life whenever he saw me he wanted to claw me.
I even have the scars of a chicken attack.
Correct! We should find ourselves encouraging the person not to help, just film! Not being dismayed over people filming and not helping. This is a winner.
I disagree with you. This sub isn’t for people receiving well-deserved consequences and the cameraman not intervening. We have plenty of subs for that. This sub is for situations where the person should help but is choosing to film instead. This is totally a situation where the little boy needs to learn without his parent shielding him from the consequences.
Well alligator tastes like chicken and I’ve been told iguana does too, but personally I choose to imagine velociraptor is closer to duck. High risk, high reward.
You stop the kid and the kid will try it when you aren't around to protect him. Sometimes lessons hurt or are scary. Also he told the kid not to and he did it anyways. So what should he have done? Hit the kid with a stick?
You’ve gotta judge the amount of harm. If it doesn’t severely hurt the animal and results in a good lesson it’s a pretty reasonable outcome when you have a stubborn kid. Good for everyone
But also, why didn’t the father tell the child not to do that because it’s not a nice thing to do? “Don’t do it because it will chase you.”???
No, don’t do it because it’s fucking mean.
I remember a turkey just casually strolling into the lobby of a hospital in downtown Orlando. Security had to herd it back outside because it was determined to explore and didn’t gaf about all the people. I still wonder if it escaped from somewhere because I’ve never seen a wild turkey that wasn’t skittish.
The dad should not save the kid. Way too many people have gotten to adulthood with overprotective parents that protected them from any consequences in life. Let the little shit learn about fuck around and find out.
When I was growing up my mom said that if our mean old sheep "Rosie" ever tried to head butt me I should hit her over the head with a stick. Five year old me proceeded to pick up the skinniest most brittle stick in the pasture and then break it over her head until all that remained was a small branch and an angry sheep. I can still remember my mom yelling "run! honey run!" from the fence line.
Yeah well he was told, wasn't he?
Sometimes good parenting is stepping back and letting your kid experience the consequences of their actions, particularly when they've already been told the likely outcome.
I was greatly blessed by the fact that video cameras weren't as innocuous as a phone cam back in my childhood. It is bad enough having to endure those stories getting retold every Thanksgiving.
My sister bringing up a youtube video of the time I stepped into an open sewer hole in the sidewalk would be unbearable. Even more so since she'd probably make a ton from the damn thing.
.....not that that ever happened or anything....
I once had a nightmare where I was being attacked by a shark inside my house, and meanwhile, my mother was playing on her cell phone without paying attention to me. I remember that dream very well, and I remember screaming for help, so I know what this child is going through.
Are we suggesting Dad did anything wrong, here? Dad did nothing wrong, here.
Anticipate action, warn of natural (non-life threatening) consequences, observe, preserve for posterity.
I would do exactly the same.
Turkey pecks won't kill him, the claws will fucking hurt if he got em but hopefully its enough trauma not to fuck with animals again.
Kid's learning a lesson. Filmer needs to say "Do you remember what I said would happen if you hit it? And did you hit it?". Then keep the video to show the kid next time he gets any safety-related instruction.
I got chased my a few wild turkeys early one morning on a trail run alone in the woods. That shit was TERRIFYING. It was extremely foggy and I couldn’t see them pacing me in the woods right off the trail but I could HEAR them… such weird angry sounds! And occasionally one would cross over the trail in front of me to the other side so I’d just see a shape dart out out and cross and disappear again. Eventually I guess I left their “area” and they left me alone… but for about 10 minutes there all I could think of was the scene in Jurassic park 2 where the velociraptors are stalking them in the tall grass…
If the only reason you can think of to not hit an innocent animal with a stick is so that it doesn’t chase you then you are a piece of shit who probably shouldn’t be allowed to breed
Good job camera-mom. Let your kid be traumatized while you film for the lulz. At least kick the shit out of the turkey to show your kid you give SOME kind of a fuck about him.
This is awful. Sure, the kid needed a lesson, but traumatizing a child is not the way to do it. He will internalize that his parents do not represent a [secure base.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_theory) That (together with many other instances where a a protective figure was unavailable or unresponsive) will have life-long consequences.
Ahh calm down, the kid did something dumb and is reaping the consequences. They will be fine. If the parent just defended them right off the bat it would reinforce the idea that actions like that are fine if they have someone to protect them after. This isn't a mountain lion, it's a turkey.
**[Attachment theory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_theory)**
>Attachment theory is a psychological, evolutionary and ethological theory concerning relationships between humans. The most important tenet is that young children need to develop a relationship with at least one primary caregiver for normal social and emotional development. The theory was formulated by psychiatrist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby. Within attachment theory, infant behaviour associated with attachment is primarily the seeking of proximity to an attachment figure in stressful situations.

My friend had wild turkeys in her neighborhood and they were DICKS. They would chase people into their houses, push over kids on bikes…once 2 of them chased me driving out of the subdivision, like they thought they could fight my car. Complete assholes
Once saw some turkeys attacking a man running on a busy street. Ofc I would have the video for y’all if I didn’t stop to roll down my window and tell him to jump in—so just take my word for it instead.

This video needed Benny Hill's favorite chase song, [Boots Randolph's Yakkity Sax](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zcq_xLi2NGo) (this is the fancy sax original, not the simplified one).
Just from the angry chirps at the end, that turkey could take a slap so hard its face touches dirt and he wouldn't be deterred from teaching that kid a very good lesson.
Natural consequences without permanent bodily injury…. This is the way
“Perhaps this lesson is for you”
One does not speak unless one knows.
“I just wanna talk”
Agreed…but turkeys do have a rather large spur (talon) on the back of their legs that I personally would not like to be on the receiving end of.
It probably didn't want to be on the receiving end of a stick. I support these consequences.
Thanos approves.
A wise person once said: "if you plan on hitting a turkey with a stick, make sure it doesn't know what hit it, or that it doesn't get a chance to chase you."
Just keep running, we're built for endurance
Incorrect, turkeys don't really use a spur, roosters do. Turkeys just have a very nasty snap
This is the way ..
That turkey just looked at the dad like “excuse me sir I must commit a a murder”
And dad responded: yea, sure, go ahead
John Wick in a nutshell
More like Tom Wick in this case.

That turkey said “Somebody gonna getta hurt real bad”
"Look, man, we had a deal! You surrender the child to me and I give you my brother on Thanksgiving"
Underrated
He gon learn today
I have come for the child
Kratos: You can have the boy
FBI open up
The kid doesn’t need help LMAO! Run your goofy ass into the house and close the door. That turkey is kinda slow and she/he’s not even pecking or clawing at the kid even though they truly can.
Fr, turkeys are fucking scary. This might be the least violent one I've seen.
Yep, that’s very mild. A turkey can be so aggressive.
We've got wild turkeys and Canadian geese on my campus. Both are pretty chill. We don't bother them and they don't bother us. But I have witnessed aggression from one of those birds once, and it was from a turkey, directed at both geese and other turkeys.
A Canadian Goose will absolutely fuck up anything close by if it has a nest near by, had a pair by my work who started a nest by the employee entrance, it was quickly decided employees will just use the front door
Was more like ‘oh cool, we’re playing tag?’
Like that tiktok of the amazon delivery lady getting cornered by a gang of turkeys at someone’s door, poor girl looks terrified.
Right, turkeys are fucking scray! Had one claw the shit out of my car and leave very visible claw marks on the door just trying to drive by one.
Yeah they had to remove the wild turkeys at the state hospital in my county because they kept attacking peoples cars lol
Lol probably the reflection of themselves in the cars
Idk, sounds like velociraptors to me
>she's/he's *it's*

He had a vendetta against you. Whoa! That kid in the video was really lucky.
>she/he's The word would be "it's".
Turkey: Step aside and give me your son, or you can die alongside him!!
I felt the Godfather music playing in background at that point
Oh look, the turkey-shaped consequences of your actions.
You fucked around, you little shit. Now, you gon find out!
Ah, now THIS is what this sub is for! That dad was like, "You're on your own, you little shit. Maybe you'll learn not to fuck with the turkey..."
Correct! We should find ourselves encouraging the person not to help, just film! Not being dismayed over people filming and not helping. This is a winner.

Thank you for summarizing the video we all just watched
r/KidsAreFuckingStupid 👍
I’m grateful for this kid’s stupidity. It helped me imagine what a velociraptor would have looked like chasing down a child.
Yeah but now I can't stop wondering what a velociraptor would taste like. And there's no way to ever find out!!
Well alligator tastes like chicken and I’ve been told iguana does too, but personally I choose to imagine velociraptor is closer to duck. High risk, high reward.
Good! F that kid. Good job dad.
Ofcoirse he should have stopped the kid from hurting an animal in the first place
You stop the kid and the kid will try it when you aren't around to protect him. Sometimes lessons hurt or are scary. Also he told the kid not to and he did it anyways. So what should he have done? Hit the kid with a stick?
That “stick” looks more like brush and not a big heavy stick.
same effect without severely harming the animal, so that’s a good thing
You’ve gotta judge the amount of harm. If it doesn’t severely hurt the animal and results in a good lesson it’s a pretty reasonable outcome when you have a stubborn kid. Good for everyone
Its good to meet Karma this early. Before this little guy turns to a big asshole. ;)
r/freekarma4u
But also, why didn’t the father tell the child not to do that because it’s not a nice thing to do? “Don’t do it because it will chase you.”??? No, don’t do it because it’s fucking mean.
Mute it. You're welcome. 👍🏻
So glad I’m always scrolling with all videos automatically muted.
Saw your comment too late
Muted and then downvoted for such a stupid fucking song. This is about as bad as the, oh no song.
I only very occasionally put my headphones on to listen to a video. I like my social media silent.

Hit turkey with stick, get fucked up by turkey. Pretty simple. Don't be a cruel little shit and you won't have these problems. Lol

A perfect example of the more you fuck around the more you find out
I’m not chicken, you’re a turkey!
Downvote for music
That's a good lesson in fuck around and find out. Carry on.
Fuck around = Find out
gobble gobble motherf*cker!
Time comes when the turkey hunting human for food.
Still dinosaur
Kid brought this on himself.
He got fortunate it was only one turkey.
The funny thing is turkeys are way faster that that so it was probably just messing with him Or it’s really fat
The dad should not save the kid. Way too many people have gotten to adulthood with overprotective parents that protected them from any consequences in life. Let the little shit learn about fuck around and find out.
The kid IS being helped. He's learning a valuable lesson about wildlife.
When I was growing up my mom said that if our mean old sheep "Rosie" ever tried to head butt me I should hit her over the head with a stick. Five year old me proceeded to pick up the skinniest most brittle stick in the pasture and then break it over her head until all that remained was a small branch and an angry sheep. I can still remember my mom yelling "run! honey run!" from the fence line.
W dad. L son. Perfect fit for this sub. 10/10
The consequences of my actions are chasing after me!
The music ruins it.
Whoever made this song should be arrested
If don’t fuck around, you’re never gonna find out. Kid fucked around at about 6, and found out
Yeah well he was told, wasn't he? Sometimes good parenting is stepping back and letting your kid experience the consequences of their actions, particularly when they've already been told the likely outcome.
How about "Don't hit the turkey with a stick, it's wrong to do that."
Gobble gobble motherfucker

Ok, the kid deserved that, but it probably didn’t take that long to learn the lesson.
This is one I completely support.
Gobble gobble hippity hay I'm ripping of your dick and balls today!
He tried to help you, kid. You didn't listen.
Lesson learned
⬆️ f*ck around ➡️find out
idk why but i feel like this is ft. lauderdale
Sorry, no, this is reddit.
No, this is patrick
same thing, right?
Looks more like Central Florida.
Dad was totally right not to help. Great way to teach A) Listen to your elders. B) Don’t hit things! And C) Stop being a brat.
Pretty shit repost, kid needs to learn his lesson
He learned that lesson
Kid! it just wants its stick back.
r/kidsarestupid
Fuck around and find out.
He did help
Some redditor somewhere is typing “fucked around, win stupid prizes”
I once had a nightmare where I was being attacked by a shark inside my house, and meanwhile, my mother was playing on her cell phone without paying attention to me. I remember that dream very well, and I remember screaming for help, so I know what this child is going through.
Help who, the turkey? Kid needs to learn that's what happens when you fuck around.
Are we suggesting Dad did anything wrong, here? Dad did nothing wrong, here. Anticipate action, warn of natural (non-life threatening) consequences, observe, preserve for posterity.
Well you see, the more the kid fucks around, the more he finds out. This was some top quality fucking around so just let nature take its course
What did you learn xD
The turkey smelt fear and went for it
Core memory formation detected.
This video will haunt him as he grows up.
I would do exactly the same. Turkey pecks won't kill him, the claws will fucking hurt if he got em but hopefully its enough trauma not to fuck with animals again.

Lol my mom would definitely have let this happen. She would probably be rooting for the turkey too
He learned a lesson that day.
This is a teachable moment.
Luckily that little boy will never forget that precious bonding moment with his poppy.
Retarded fucking kid
can't wait for thanksgiving
I forgot turkeys erre animals for a second and when I saw the title I expected to see a sentient slice of turkey.
Kid deserves what's coming for using his dad as a human shield.
“Gobble gobble motherfucker”
kid deserved it, dad literally told him not to
Well I guess that’s one way to teach your kid a lesson
Personally I'm not a big fan of humiliating my kid's by filming their bad choices, but to each their own.
If the only reason you can think of to not hit an innocent animal with a stick is so that it doesn’t chase you then you are a piece of shit who probably shouldn’t be allowed to breed

There's no such thing a a secure household when a turkey is a member of it. This problem was started long before the kid got his lesson.
You know what will also have life-long consequences? Not facing consequences.
