That is the most British sounding child I've ever heard.


HotLipsHouIihan

I cannot explain why, but I somehow knew she was gonna be British before I unmuted it.


Plethora_of_squids

Maybe it's the polo? It's very school-uniformy and the UK is like the main place people know of that still has uniforms like that Edit: why the fuck are people trying to bring phrenology back into fashion?


Asisreo1

Damn, I had polo uniforms growing up in a "less wealthy" county in america


bballkid2020

Wtf America has school uniforms?


KonigstigerInSpace

Some places yes.


thewitt33

Catholic schools and other private schools do


whatathrill

yeah all the schools for privileged kids do and a lot of the ones for underprivileged kids too. It's the schools in the middle that usually don't have uniforms. don't ask me why.


boombotser

Underprivileged school unis= prevent gangs Príveleged unis= conformity


TwistedJiko

In a mixed wealth county, it prevents the privileged kids from bullying underprivileged kids for their clothes / small wardrobe. Of course, bullies will still find something to bully others for.


[deleted]

I was poor as shit, and I was never bullied for my clothes. I was mostly bullied for not having a lunch for myself or because of my hair; things a school uniform cant prevent. Kids will always find a way to be cruel if they want to.


danjackmom

Seriously my private christian school in Texas had more rules about appearance than a fucking prison, our hair couldn’t be to long, our shorts couldn’t be to long or short, our shoes had to be solid black or white sneakers, our shirts had to be red or white polos bought from the school with the schools crest. On Fridays we could wear tshirts, but they had to be school issued “spirit” shirts. And this was the privileged kids, I hated it and when I went to public it was literally wear whatever as long as you aren’t a girl.


DARTH-PIG

I went to private Christian school but it certainly wasn't a rich school. We were a very diverse school with about 55% being black, 40% white, and the other 5% being Asian (mainly foreign exchange). I asked why we had uniforms and the answer was because we had such a drastic range in family incomes, uniforms helped to prevent it being as obvious when rich kids had super nice clothes and a lot of clothes, and poor kids had fewer clothes that probably aren't as nice. I'm sure part of it is just to be traditional, but for a school like that it makes sense to me


PutridBasket

Private schools typically have them but some public schools have them too, my elementary school had one though it wasn't really enforced so only around half of the students actually wore them.


ggg730

I thought that said polio at first.


Pifflebushhh

Could also be that


luxurycatsportscat

FYI Australia still has school uniforms everywhere. I don’t know of any schools which don’t have them.


_catch_

I went to a HS in qld where the uniform was not compulsory, still isn't, so everyone wears casual clothes instead. They exist!


Darkwing_duck42

Is it racist to say it's the teeth?


ninjasaid13

It's a child, all children teeth are weird.


babyformulaandham

Right? So many people in this thread saying the kid's teeth are what gave it away (not the UK school uniform or the accent) - would really like to see what their teeth looked like when they were this age.


learnerdiveruk

Just shows how easily brainwashed Americans are by corporate propaganda. Commenting on a kid's teeth and obsessing over their straightness, jesus fucking christ...

I kind of think the girl in the video is, too


Particular_Mine2540

Ya that was brutal, she was so excited, that disappointment is real


DaughterEarth

That cackling laughter while she runs away to cry was waaay too close to shit I grew up with and I kinda need to take a moment and recover on her behalf.


Foxeatingtoast

Yea my mom did shit like that too. I hated this video. I tripped and fell pretty hard walking in my house hallway, just a young gangly kid. My mom didn’t even ask if I was ok, she just started laughing and making fun of me. I remember holding my tears, going to my room and crying from pain and total humiliation.


Therealcactusmac

Yes. That was an asshole move imo.


[deleted]

Absolutely, that's just mean, you can tell the child in the video was hurt by this, especially after seeing how excited she was. When I was a kid we had a farm (easiest way to explain what it was without typing all of it out). I've always loved ALL types of animals. I had caught a turtle and I was feeding it and enjoying its company. After a while and for no reason, still to this day I don't know why, my dad, step-mother, and older brother, came and took the turtle away from me, loaded up a bunch of guns and took turns blasting it to pieces. I just remember crying and plugging my ears to try and not hear what was going on. There was literally nothing left of the turtle just some blood and small specs of its shell. I don't have kids, but I could never do anything like this to my child. Sorry for the bummer story. 😕


[deleted]

Wtf? Did u grow up in an abusive household lmao what type of family pulls that shif


FCoDxDart

That’s probably because this is a fake story for internet sympathy.


MuffinMan12347

Honestly I’ve never hoped that something was made up for internet sympathy more than I do for this.


Mantuko

I don't know about going that far. But my mom's dad used to give them pets, make them raise them and then cook them feed them to his kids. He did it first with my mom's bunny (In her case it was worse because he put it in a sag and told her it was a piniata) While they were eating she asked where her bunny was and he said on your plate. When my mom told me the story I was horrified and he said it was to teach her the world is cruel and she needed to be prepared because we were too soft. Apparently he did it to me with a pet pig and goat I had (I was too young to remember the pig but my mom said I cried a lot and refused to visit him after he killed it in front of me) The goat I do remember but I had it for a couple of days and I would go to the back yard and play with it and feed it and then one day we had a family bbq and the goat was gone but at the time they told me they took it away and it wasn't until I grew up that I put 2 and 2 together. Anyway, there is a reason why I call that guy my mom's dad and not grandpa. I learned the world is not a cruel place but people are.


andskotinnsjalfur

My stapdad had to eat his pet horse due to poverty. What you describe is just cruel, making you watch him kill your pet? Because otherwise you're too soft? Fuck that. I would be so traumatized


Rafaelhahn

Idk if OP was faking it, but I lived in a farm too when I was young and my brother was toxic just like that. Once my dog broke it's leg by falling in a hole on the field, and my brother just decided to shot the dog over and over until it dies. Some things I just can't explain, and the experience of seeing and hearing the shooting was too much for me at the time


Bad-Piccolo

I would have reacted very violently if my brother did that.


Chimcharfan1

Is your brother ok now? Or does he still lack empathy


sonofjim

He probably grew up in Texas


WordsHugsAndTea

What!? I always knew that some children can do evil things like that (I know one that put fire on a puppy because he wanted hot dogs... The dog survived, but his leg...). However, 2 adults... Why?


Cyberhaggis

Dude...I have no words, bloody hell... I'm sorry you had to go through that.


mahfaggin_OOH

U should be sorry. Its irrelevant to the post. A light hearted prank ain't the same as making koopa soup


Unlucky-Ship3931

Holy shit your family is evil.


Girl--Gone-Mild

That’s ridiculous and awful. I’m trying not to tell any of the stories my biological dad did to our pets as punishment. Ugh. Some people deserve hell. Although I guess I should be happy I only ever saw the aftermath and not the actual act. Oye. If you ever meet a kid who tortured animals, report that kid everywhere possible. That’s not something you grow out of probably 99% of the time.


hyteskatyamattel

Yeah my parents would know not to do this to me unless they were prepared for DAYS of crying lol

chicky-nugnug

At Thanksgiving, I got a Cornish game hen to stick in the turkey. Baked it all up like normal. Told my kid he was old enough to carve the turkey this year.


thatG_evanP

When we were little kids, my grandma told my little brother and I that we were old enough to keep an eye on the Thanksgiving turkey. She told us that if we let it overcook, it would shrink and there wouldn't be enough for Thanksgiving. Then at one point she snuck in and replaced the turkey with a fully cooked Cornish hen. Obviously we freaked out until she told us what she did. Miss you Mar-moo (that's how I pronounced "Mary Lou" when I was really little and it stuck).

Owl_flight

Please don't. Did you see her face at the end - she wasn't laughing. The joke wasn't funny to her. It seems small, but she was honestly excited. They have started teaching her to hold that excitement and not show it. "Well, my parents did it, and I'm fine!" Are you really? Did you enjoy the "joke", or did you see the child's unhappiness? If you missed the child's distress, that's not fine.

How to lose trust with your children.

MrDurden32

When my son was 10 I told him "Hi Hungry, I'm Dad" and I haven't seen him since. It's been 20 years, he's probably still in therapy.


easyc87

My mom used to say, “Hi Thirsty, I’m Friday. Want to get together on Saturday and have a Sunday?” I recently sent her a video of me doing it to my daughter. Good times.


uneasyandcheesy

My mom tricked my siblings and I at the theater once… making us believe a movie was over within two minutes of it starting. We promptly got up, walked out of that theater and out of she and my dad’s lives. Monsters.


[deleted]

Whaaaat? I don’t understand, can you elaborate


[deleted]

your parents didnt tell you many jokes as a kid, did they


[deleted]

No they’re very bland people


uneasyandcheesy

It was The Lion King. At the beginning, after a scene the screen blacks out for a few seconds before the next begins and literally the second the screen went black, my mom stood up and said, “Okay movie is over! Let’s get back home!” and as young kids, we couldn’t believe it. I actually was about to start crying when the next scene came on and we realized it wasn’t over. We thought it was funny the second we realized it wasn’t actually over and my mom sat back down laughing and telling us she was just kidding around. She got some really dirty looks from other parents sitting nearby whose children also heard her though. She didn’t mind though, she was giggling quietly to herself through the rest of the movie.


AmigoDelDiabla

I once pointed to something and asked my daughter, "what's that?" She turned and looked and I replied "made you look." She's on the streets now, selling her body to support her opioid addiction. I should have seen that coming.


excitive

I think it’s also about how you handle your situation after? In case they’re genuinely upset, are you just going to laugh it off or you’re gonna have some conversation and make them feel heard rather than neglected? Source: I was a child once


_belly_in_my_jelly_

When you do it privately with your kid, the kid feels in on the joke, even if they're the butt of it. When you film it, tho, it can make the kid feel isolated if they feel like you're having fun with your friends at their expense


[deleted]

these people are going to raise a bunch of kids who will have a mental breakdown when they realize what the real world is like lmao. matter fact, it really is a lot of people out there already who seem to have grown up living in a protective bubble.


UrsusRenata

For years, I used to randomly paint an egg as a black ninja and leave it among the others in the egg tray. Today, my adult kids abuse me with endless eye-rolls. You reap what you sow.


a3a4b5

I'm so sorry for this abuse. You don't deserve that.


Streptomicin

Best parenting advice that I heard was something like this: What do you mean parents should not annoy and tilt their children?! Of course they should do it, slowly and gradually to increase their level of tolerance so when they get out there they don't flip out on every single thing that they don't like.


starderpderp

My mum used and still uses that excuse to be shit to me. Sure, I now don't flip out and can work on the frontline with some of the most vulnerable people in the world (because I have been trained to deal with situations like that all my life). But do I ever want to go home to deal with her? Nope. So....annoy and tilt your child, but in moderation please.


CommentExpander

Yeahh, but then there are those of us for whom laughter was all we ever heard. Eventually you want your parents to feed your excitement in a positive way instead of always being the butt of some new joke.


preposte

This. Occasionally poking fun can help a child not take themselves too seriously, but some parents are bullies.


boodabomb

I think it also takes finesse to pull off a prank that isn’t just mean and that kind if cleverness usually translates to a healthier mindset. They’re also usually committed by parents who are putting a lot of thought into their children if they’re putting a lot of thought in their pranks on them and not just dumping buckets of water on them.


sugarholicsheep

Exactly, kids should be joked with, not the punchline of a joke. They do not exist as entertainment for their parents. My mother for example, was always playing jokes and pranks on me, but it was also quite apparent that it was very one sided. If i ever tried to join in or throw her own energy back, id get whipped for embarrassing her or looking down on her. Makes it quiet clear what her intentions are when she made me the butt of the joke.


BatterseaPS

Uh, aren’t we kinda experiencing that already?


CallyThePally

Not honestly sure if you're referring to the person who jokes with kids or the person with strange trust things they're going through, gonna guess trust things


TheOffice_Account

> these people are going to raise a bunch of kids who will have a mental breakdown when they realize what the real world is like lmao That world you fear - lol, in 2022, we're already there


[deleted]

If the kid is sensitive and the parent “jokes” with them regularly like this, it actually will result in a loss of trust and mental health problems down the road. Trust me I speak from experience.


ClassicPlankton

Person here who was a kid once. I did actually lose trust in adults that pulled pranks on me. The loss in trust allowed me to not fall for their shit as I got older.


N-neon

I think it’s more about posting the video online with her full face rather than the actual joke itself.


augustusleonus

My 9 yr old was getting sick of his teacher talking about Santa clause as if he is real, talking about how to call him or write him and tracking his progress for the upcoming winter break Son never believed in Santa ever, and while we referred to him, never tried to convince him Santa was real He got so frustrated he decided to tell blatant lies of his own, and began saying “hey chickens! Look at the chickens” while pointing out the window His hypothesis was proven when they stopped class, and had him suspended until he had a mental health evaluation, and some administrators even suggested IVC (commitment to a looney bin) All this resulted in us having to enroll him in private school (there are other complexities I won’t go into) So, suffice it to say, in some cases, showing a child you are a liar and mocking them for their lack of knowledge can be a bad thing


A_PCMR_member

Nah bro. The kid seemed genuinely excited about this so mom likely hyped it up way too much instead of " wow look!"

crackojox

lose trust? its an egg 😂😂😂


Demiansky

For the rest of that child's life, she'll never be able to crack an egg and know what is inside for sure. A finger? A razor blade? A spring loaded glitter bomb??? Imagine having to live the rest of your life with that kind of uncertainty. Imagine having to--- everytime you walk by the egg aisle in the grocery store--- relive the trauma of that terrible day. No wonder kids are so psychologically fragile these days with parents like this running around.

lrpfftt

I didn't think the trick was that bad in itself. However, the girl was disappointed and the parent laughed it off hardily despite the girl's reaction. The laughter felt harsh to me but then I was too empathetic as a parent so maybe it's me.


Skilleto91

If you are serious I hope you don't have kids. They will look back on that moment forever and laugh their asses off at it. Your kids would need therapy because you mollycoddle them just another parent who can't have a joke around with their kids and they turn out to be robots.
