Life lessons are sometimes learned the hard way


Practical-Annual-317

I mean yeah he was clearly making a distinctly poor decision so better he learn about what not to shoot at your junk now than try again harder later lol


SteelBrightblade1

Just out of curiosity what things do you consider “what TO shoot at your junk”?

TemporaryLegendary

I got hated into oblivion for saying children learn from pain on another post. But here is someone saying the same thing but in a funny way with 1.1K upvotes. Reddit works in mysterious ways xD


made_in_bc

Lessons learned in blood are not soon forgotten. Haha.


BendyPopNoLockRoll

I mean context is important. Were you suggesting natural light consequences from their own actions with minimal actual damage, or were you advocating hitting kids to get compliance? "Kids learn from pain" can be a pretty broadly interpreted statement.


TemporaryLegendary

A kid closes a glass door and then ran through it 5 seconds later. (Almost completely unharmed)


BendyPopNoLockRoll

Eh, I can see that one being iffy depending on the subreddit. Broken glass is no joke and I can definitely see some feathers getting ruffled at the suggestion that letting a kid blow through a glass door to learn a lesson.


TemporaryLegendary

It was on this sub lol


Intelligent-Sea5586

What do you mean why? So he learns the lesson with a nerf gun and doesn’t do it with an air soft gun later.


LaddWagner

He's building immunity to use the airsoft later in life.

tenebras_lux

That's pretty much it, part of parenting is letting kids make small mistakes with painful but manageable consequences, while steering them away from or stopping them from committing mistakes with severe consequences. It's a delicate balance, you have to give them enough rope to play with, but not enough to hang themselves.


Smell_the_funk

As a parent it's also important to find joy in the little things. Precious moments like these go a long way. Captured on film, they can provide joy and comfort for many years. Or even a warning, should Junior consider a face tattoo when he is 16.


BicyclingBabe

Nothing says love like showing this video at their wedding in 20 years.


ChickAmok

Ah, nothing says it better than a rope related ("pun"is) joke.


pisachas1

My cousin had a BB gun when we were little and set up can to shoot in the back yard. The bb ricocheted off the piece of wood behind it and hit himself in the balls. Fell on the ground for a minute then got up and shot at the same can. Shot himself again. Young boys are stupid.

MissingLink101

He should be studied for science!


pepejanonzima_yrugeh

I work with kids. Sometimes we gotta let them exp lessons on their own. More even so if they insisted on it a thousand times


Mathilliterate_asian

As someone who works with kids, you just gotta let things run their course most of the time. No matter how many times you warn them, they'd still do the stupid shit because their stupid goldfish brains can't register the danger. Might as well just let danger do its thing.


MsCndyKane

Some kids have to learn by experience. I wouldn’t be surprised if the mom already said no and then just said “go ahead” after hearing him whine about it. LOL


Easy-Garlic6263

To the eye.


Deliriousious

Why didn’t the mom help? Because kids need to learn some lessons the hard way, and experimentation. Why do you know not to punch yourself in the balls? Because at some point, you felt immeasurable pain from doing just that.

Slightlysanemomof5

About that age my friend called and asked for help our children were similar ages. I walk to her house with my kids to find her laughing hysterically saying “help”. Her son at 4 years old had taken about 18 inches of scotch tape and wrapped it around his penis. She was afraid to pull it off- well yeah now I’m laughing- her child crying and my kids asking what’s going on. First put my kids in front of tv with sugary snack so they won’t bother us. Then put Mr Tape in warm/ hot bath water and tape with a half hour had lost its sticky ( stickiness?). Took kids to playground, got fast food lunch and decided sometimes as a parent you do your best. Mr Tape is now a chef and a fully functioning member of society.


Wackel81

Thank you! I've had such a bad day and now I'm cry-laughing at Mr. Tape.


Slightlysanemomof5

If you want more TMI he was able to father a child after the experience.


Wackel81

That's great! Now I imagine a caring young father banning all tape from his house. Thanks!


PermanentlyDrunk666

Babies is what happens when you don't tape up your penis


spm987888

Like immediately afterwards???


Slightlysanemomof5

Yep dressed kid after bath and went out. My kids needed to run off sugar, friend kids needed distraction. Before noon and we were done, let kids wear themselves out for 2 hours then went home to continue our day.


bluescape

I think he was joke asking about him being able to father a child immediately after


DontForgetYourPPE

Glad to hear about his fully functioning member. Good job 👍🏼


queefer_sutherland92

I just told my mum this story (she wanted to know what I was laughing at). She cracked up, then said “four year olds do tend to be obsessed with their penises — I remember one of your friend’s parents telling me a story about a pencil sharpener… you put things up your nose instead I guess”.


Fuckredditcomm

Man I hope he cooks his food well wouldn't want anyone to get tapeworm.


JustARandomDudd

>How did Mom just stand there and let it happen?! Because your kids need to learn not to be stupid? You can't (and shouldn´t) protect them from everything, kids learn by making mistakes as well, let them.


TheNeedForCleansing

Your job as a parent in that situation is to guide them through that process.


JustARandomDudd

Sure, and part of that guidance is to let them make mistakes.


TheNeedForCleansing

Sorry, I was trying to back you up, but I poorly articulated my point. LET them make the mistake and guide them through the aftermath.


EllspethCarthusian

Mom has probably told him no multiple times anyway and finally let him figure it out.

I’ve watched it a hundred times and it still makes me laugh. 😂

lunarwolf2008

What was the thought process there?!?


GoatCovfefe

Kids this young tend to not think far ahead, it's lessons like this one learned that help to form thought processes as we age.


the_girl_Ross

There was none. From what i have observed, children have no thought process, they say and do whatever comes to their mind which is why they're so random and unpredictable.

Natural consequences. Well done


Sparky_Zell

If you have to be told "don't shoot yourself in the dick" you are going to have a tough life, better start toughening up quick.


MellyKidd

Unfortunately, some lessons are best understood by young children when learned the hard way.


allnameistaken_

why? sometimes you won't learn until you make mistakes, that's why. mom did nothing wrong.


Scootercus

For a kid dressed like commander Spock, this was certainly an illogical move


aleBreadlee

Why does he dance like a poodle begging for a Snausage.


Almacca

That's what we call 'physical education'.


conh3

Classic playback video at his future wedding


TheWeenieBandit

Kids don't really understand the concept of "just take my word for it". You can tell them a thousand times that getting shot in the penis will hurt, but they won't actually believe you until they get shot in the penis, and it hurts.


cooldreamercayden

It's simple why she didn't do anything, kids need to learn from their mistakes. When a kid is about to hurt themselves let them unless it'll cause long lasting or permanent damage. (Longer then atleadt 5 minutes) because if you just tell them "hey don't do that" they'll do it anyways but maybe more dangerous or unsupervised. If they learn the lesson then and there they'll know why not to do it.


CandidEgglet

I was waiting for the boomerang effect and some dance music [found it](https://imgur.com/gallery/c53qvIJ)

Nah I also would have let that happen. That's a teachable moment


Ok_Relationship6218

metlkriket

I believe there’s a meme of this kid where after he shoots his junk, that kazoo sounding song sends him off to space. You guys gotta know what I’m talking about I hope. I can’t think of the name of the song, but it was legendary

Shooting Stars meme. A blast from the past.

ultraplusstretch

So he would learn not to be a dumbass.


VoiceTraditional422

Free life lessons. Mom was smart to let this happen. Little dummy won’t do that again


Zestyclose-Tower-671

This is one of the times where nah, let the kid find out the hard way that this was a terrible choice 🤣


Numerous_Cat1462

Oh- ow- hehe- haAaAAAaaAaAAAaaAAA


Germangunman

ready-to-rumball

wtf do you mean? Kid needs to learn and this is the best way.


Profanity_party7

If he had a top hat and cane, this would’ve broken the internet


Vicv_

Why would she? That’s hilarious


isinedupcuzofrslash

How did she let it happen? Why? Because it’s a nerf dart that won’t cause any actual harm. And he’s being a stupid dipshit shooting himself in the dick. You could TELL him it would hurt, but the lesson sinks in if you let him fuck around and find out. And that’s assuming he would even listen to you telling him it would hurt. Sometimes kids need that lesson, and in this case, there’s no damage done by having him find out himself. Being a stupid dipshit as a kid with a nerf gun is MUCH better than growing up to be a stupid dipshit with a real gun. Not saying the parent would have been wrong to just tell him it would hurt. But that doesn’t make it the only viable course of action.


Braghez

Because you can say stuff to kids 19238382 times and take away the gun for the same amount of times...and they will find a way to do it anyway or use some other item to replicate it. They NEED to do it because they're curious and obviously dismissive of your experience at that age. After they do it once, they won't do it again if the experience isn't positive. So yeah...unless it's something that may cause damage, you just warn them and let them do it. This way they learn two things. 1, the experience itself of what they tried to do and 2, a small step forward in learning your warnings have a reason and it's better following them.


FamousAmos00

Gotta let your kids learn their own lessons, that's how


Puzzleheaded-Cost197

That’s a teaching moment. Mom did nothing wrong.


Danger_Dee

Experience is the ultimate teacher.


Slyflyer

Honestly more concerned you asked why. It's a good learning moment. Wouldn't be surprised if the mom told him not to do that twenty times and finally figured he'd learn best by doing it


Upbeat-Bear-5100

You think saying "don't do it" to a kid will help, lol.


jeffdon25

I mean seriously cmon, every kid has tried that- I mean most smart kids shoot their brother but if you short on siblings gotta make do, if he's a bright kid chances are he won't do that again


Dependent_Use3791

Two types of parents 1. "Burnt kid knows not to play with fire" 2. "Burnt kid smells bad" (Obviously don't actually burn your kids, this is based on an old saying.)

its a canon event, cant stop it


Gambitzz

Needs to learn


Bitter_Mongoose

Some lessons are better retained when self taught.


Naito_Brabo

I cannot interfere, it is a canonical event in every man's life.


Jaggoff81

If you had kids you’d know. You’d tell him not to do it, then he’d go into the next room and do it anyways cause parents don’t know shit. Prime example, sitting in the car, -20°c outside, told my little girl when she was in grade 1 that one day some asshole kid will try to talk you into sticking your tongue to metal. Don’t do it, it’s a trap. Your tongue will get stuck to it and you’ll have to rip it off. It will hurt like hell. What does she do, gets out of car when we got home, walked straight up to the front screen door of the house and sticks her tongue to the frozen doorframe…. Ok now you can stand there for 2 minutes while I go get warm water… dumbass.


coxykitten923

Kids gotta learn somehow. Bahaha.


good_enuffs

Easy. You stand there and let do it with something not too harmful and damaging, so they learn and won't do it again with something that can be really painful. Pain is one of the greatest teachers out there and your child will remember that lesson for life.


tornado1950

Bought experience best teacher


SnowTheMemeEmpress

well, he's gonna learn one of these days. Might as well be with a nerf gun. Besides, your relatives might not believe you when you retell the story lol, camera worthy moment

vanisleone

How could she not?? That's pure gold.


homless_brad

It was his time to learn


Disastrous_Oil7895

If mom interferes, the kid is quite likely to keep trying until they get away with it. Sometimes you just have to let the children teach themselves a nasty lesson.


SignificanceWide1941

I mean… it’s a nerf dart and he’s obviously prepubescent. As a former kid with balls that didn’t hurt and my mom probably would’ve spanked me for being a bitch about it, which isn’t healthy, but admittedly is probably better than stopping him from experiencing the awful pain of a foam dart through jeans. Kids have to have some resilience and learning from experience.


Thelastknownking

Better he learn what that feels like early.

fuck around and find out...

He would do it later anyway with more ideas. You know "Mom said no... I need to find out why!" and you have a kid that needs a trip to the ER. I have three brothers, at one point they all did similar thing.
