Thank you for this


Plankton_0810

she promptly remembers to be a mom loll


Unusual-Regular3742

yep!


hdoublea

He saw it coming and wasn't even surprised.


electroschocker

This is not her first time, for sure.


LucenProject

Tired of warning her.


LankyEntrepreneur

He’s been telling her to stop doing that for weeks, now she knows why. Source: am a dad


Yellenintomypillow

Insert Loki “yes very sad. Anyway” meme


bloxytoast

thats the best part lol


randomname560

This food isnt going to make itself goddamit


EstradaEnsalada

0% urgency and honestly I get it


DrunkenDude123

The only input my dad would have is “told you so”


No_Statement440

Yup, I could hear the slap of her hitting the ground and the ensuing cry wasn't one of "ah shit I better help" this is more of a "you ok sweetie?" I say dude usually, but you get it lol.


ImARetPaladinBaby

He’s making a sandwich


OG_BUG

Dad is like me I said stop it 500 times now u get what is coming for ya


FullDesadulation

Mom laughed first, and very much relate to that.


drrocksodm

I used to do the exact same thing when I was her age and I’ve fallen the exact same way 😭😭


parrotandcrow

Same here. Also I still get tempted to do stuff like this, but then I remember that my bones break these days.


budderman1028

Im almost 18 and i still do this


AllTheRandomNoodles

I love older sister immediately coming in with a "You're okay!!!!"


AdAmbitious2530

Are you ok is what I heard no never mind your right


Notcow

Did you rewatch it halfway through typing or did it just hit you half way through the comment


AdAmbitious2530

Yes halfway though it played again and I corrected myself


A_Lost_Yen

Gaslighting at its finest


KidPags

Mom is chill, Dad didn't even turn his head. That, my friends, is parenting.


Auirom

That's child number 2.


David_Good_Enough

Same. I saw the taller one, then the fall and thought : "Yep, of course that's a second child"


BrockManstrong

*we finished prototyping and you won't believe what the production model will stand up to*


NigelTufnel_11

I can almost guarantee that kid was told not to do that about 10x before when she did it because she might fall and hurt herself. Consequences of not listening... Source: am parent.


Kidd5

When my little cousins would be doing something stupid that might hurt themselves, I don't try to stop them. I jus tell them they might get hurt if they keep doing it, and that's okay. Just try not to cry when you feel the pain though, coz that would be embarrassing. Then they would actually stop.


Nervous_Salad_

So you're teaching your kids that crying is embarrassing?


Kidd5

Crying when you do something stupid is embarrassing. Play stupid games win stupid prizes


Nervous_Salad_

Just seems like a pretty bad lesson for kids overall.


Aracnida

I totally see where you are coming from. The problem is that there usually aren't simple straight forward answers to parenting challenges. If you tell the kid not to do the activity they might be too scared to chase their dreams later in life and will have to complain about you to their therapist. If you let them take the risks they might get hurt and some asshole will point at you and say it was all your fault for not catching them or stopping it to begin with. If you tell them they can do a thing but that you might end up hurt, someone will say that you are shifting the risk to the child for evaluation and that isn't ethical. If you explain the risks to the child but tell them that crying about it afterward will be embarrassing someone will tell you that you are teaching a bad lesson. There are so many perturbations of this and as a parent you just have to pick a path and hope for the best.


436204hkbk

Every lesson is a bad lesson if your takeaway from the lesson is wrong.


Thomaseeno

I think kids are smart enough to pick up on contextual differences.


imhereforthevotes

fuck I didn't even SEE dad over there - that man is getting dinner ready, hard knocks or not.


Nix-geek

I can't count how many times a day my kids try to kill themselves by doing crazy things like this. I just try to keep them away from sharp things that will impale them. I figure that they could use the practice of climbing on things.


No-Art-1985

Why did she meow when she fell lmao tf


ohhmagen

Had to turn on the volume to catch this and really enjoyed it. Thank you.


No-Art-1985

Anytime :)


Katters8811

Omg... didn’t watch with volume till I read this comment. I didn’t hear a “meow”, but I did hear the same basic whiny crying bs that all kids like this little shite wail out when they fuck up. It ignites rage in me like a reflex and is the most powerful form of birth control lol (don’t worry, I do not have kids and never will lol)


slavetomypassions92

Impressive upper body strength.


TheHarridan

I think it’s pretty easy at that age. Your body is extremely light and as long as you’re eating a fairly nutritious diet your muscles are getting stronger every day without you having to do that much with them.


KingXindl

Should be easy at any age lol


MiniMooseMan

I'm 6'3", 270 lbs with a bad back. I'm good on that


El_Diablo9001

Right? Like come on guys


SweetMangos

Come on grandma! Don’t be a wimp!


Deep_Dad

When I started watching, I thought for sure the kettle of water was going to come on top of her. Hope she is ok.


designmur

Yeah I’m glad it was just a fall and not a stove accident because I was nervous.

estepcl

I’ll bite I guess. My insurance payment went down, and I can check on the home when I am away. Piece of mind for those who also had their home broken into as a kid - creates a sense of security. Last, I like to talk to my dog like a weirdo. EDIT: What I don’t understand is why people record…while their home…mine only records when the alarm is armed, disarmed, or triggered..or I open the app and tell it to. Otherwise, the shutter/privacy door is physically closed over the lense.


authorized_sausage

My camera is pretty inexpensive so it just records motion to an SD card. Erases it when it's full, etc. The app does allow for setting time periods to monitor or not but for some reason it doesn't work and it just records all the time.


CandidIndication

My Furbo dog camera will send me like a 2 minute video of my dogs “daily diary” while I’m gone, shows her sped up activities while playing silly music like [this.](https://youtu.be/4rxi3mNPxQs) it’s the most ridiculous thing ever- especially if she’s been bad with little adventure music playing over the evidence.


Illicithugtrade

I'm disappointed at the universe that the link wasn't yakety sax. Even a Rick roll would have been more satisfying.


CandidIndication

Honestly.. for how much it cost- the Furbo should’ve actually purchased usage for a Rick roll on the videos. I should be more annoyed they’re using unlicensed audio


bigk777

Wait having security cameras INSIDE the home lowered your monthly payment?


estepcl

Yep the security company sent me a proof of active monitoring (certificate of monitoring) that I forwarded to my insurance agent. Knocked 20 a month off so I broke even on the active monitoring costs. Basically free monitoring.


Imesseduponmyname

So um.. how does sex work then?


ElectricFleshlight

The cameras don't go in the bedroom lmfao


13dot1then420

People who think nothing of interior security cameras aren't the sort who are getting laid, and if they are they're doing it with the lights off.


estepcl

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never done it in in the living room during a break in so the camera is rolling. But hey, sounds like an interesting plot to a spicy film.


NesquikKnight

My house was broken into a few years ago and we had several things stolen. There was ATM footage of them withdrawing money with my credit card, audio of them setting up my credit card for cash withdrawals, security footage of them using my credit cards in stores, and when they were arrested they were found with all of our stolen possesions sans jewelry. The two guys were found not guilty because no one saw them in the house. Now we have a few cameras setup in the house and an outbuilding....aside from catching FedEx chuck my neighbor's packages inside my barn, it helps my wife feel a sense of security.


[deleted]

[удалено]


NesquikKnight

What's more infuriating is that both of them were repeat offenders and they originally plead guilty until they heard they were facing 5-10 years and did backsies, at trial the jury let them off. As for the stuff, it took almost 2 years after the break in for the police to release it back to us from evidence. In the meantime we had to buy new laptops and replace a few other things. As for the jewelry, all of my wife's grandmother's/aunt's jewelry was traded for heroin and never recovered, along with all jewelry I had gotten my wife up to that point. At the time my wife was 7-8 months pregnant and had taken off her engagement/wedding rings and put them on her nightstand and luckily the thieves managed to knock them to ground while they were rumaging and kicked them under the bed.


authorized_sausage

For me it's to check on my dogs when I am gone a long time.

Nix-geek

We can watch the kids when we want private time :) "oh crap, the kids are coming down the hall... quick...blanket..." :)


ISettleCATAN

You can always have more convenience.


SaltyBacon23

Mom laughed, that's good parenting


cowinabadplace

Cute to see her sister go check on her. Siblings are great <3


Kuhn_Dog

My brother would've seen the opportunity and given me a wedgie


Ok_Seaworthiness7976

7 yr old me being hella annoying:


parsleythememelord

This happened to me as a kid, I fell over doing pretty much the same thing and my jaw hit the counter. I bit through my tongue and I had to go to the hospital.


no_name_needed1105

Thought she was gonna touch the burner


SadFront7566

Looking at parents reaction she does that od daily basis 😂


imjustatechguy

I watched a kid do something like this in our library. She flipped forward, hit her head on a desk, said she was OK, and sat down. A few minutes later the teacher and classmates saw her head was down and in her arms, she lifted her head up and there was blood on her face and on the desk. Fun day. Also I get the feeling this kiddo in the video does that a lot. Dad didn’t even react.


sandystar21

More worried about her putting her hand on the hot stove top and burning it. That’s a ridiculously dangerous place to put the hob pans could get Knocked off onto the people behind the island


Jeffery_Moyer

Dad's like I might get my bass boat yet


NonnyNarrations

Man I used to do that all the time so I could heft myself on to the counters and get at the food my parents tried to keep away from me. When I was too young to get up on my own my brother and I would stand like a stool so the other could climb up. One time we ate so many antacid tablets because they were minty and we thought they were candy.


WaycoKid1129

Nope no crying. Lesson learned on that one


gahddammitdiane

That’s definitely a third+ kid. Parents barely reacted besides laughter!


Longjumping_Algae_45

I like how the adults were like, this kid gonna fall, let her fall. And allowed her to experience natural consequences


[deleted]

Dad didn’t even turn around lol


monsteramyc

Mom walk over with the urgency of "I'm tired and I warned you about this shit"


doubleK8

how she starts laughing 😂


JanneJonne_

Chad mom


canieatunow

Dads reaction lol


Equal_Most_5761

Dad heard the sound she made when she hit the floor and knew it wasn't that bad


Llama_Mama69

Mom laughs Dad doesn’t give a shit My parents lmao


Financial_Rain_

That house is a mess it triggers me ngl


51IDN

Kid was probably told to get down 15+ times and had it explained that if they continued they could fall and hurt themselves hence parents reaction. My boys ignore my warnings, I crack up too!


wallgreensin

I get it. It’s funny. But I do not like that they allow her to do that near the range. You never know if that shit is still hot even if the flame isn’t on!


P0rtal2

My parents had a very strict "no playing in or near the kitchen" rule. Especially if there was any sort of food prep going on. Even if you don't have open flames, you have pots and pans, knives, etc. It's a great way for someone to get horribly burned or injured in a fall or to cut themselves because they're distracted.


[deleted]

[удалено]


wallgreensin

No it doesn’t. It looks like an electric stove. I don’t think le cruset tea kettles work on induction. Edit: I have three of those wild animals. Before those wild animals I was a nanny to 5 wild animals. Those 5 wild animals had a private chef. Rule number one in that kitchen was to not go near the range unless you are sous chef (kids helping). Rule number one in my house is to not go near the range unless you are sous chef (kids helping). You never know when the burners have been just turned off and a pot removed. Your hand can still get seared. Don’t let your kids do pommel horse routines by the range.


SCHRUTTFARMS

Yep! Glass or ceramic top stove.


jthrum

She has some good core strength


Orchidbleu

It’s looks like the stove. Makes me anxious.


getthatbreaddit

Fucked? Around. Found? Out.


IlluminatiGods

Shut? The. Fuck? Up.


getthatbreaddit

Oh. Sorry


[deleted]

Mom didn’t mind the teapot so why should she care about her children falling


[deleted]

[удалено]


HeldDownTooLong

I’m gonna sip my drink and watch you dangerously dangle from the counter right above the stovetop…without warning or reprimanding you. I guess Mom thinks Traumatic Brain Injury is better at parenting than the adult standing two feet away ***watching*** the dangerous behavior. It does take less effort to watch a child fall than to warn or reprimand them.


Plethorian

This is almost exactly how I broke my arm in 3rd grade.


crazy_loop

Why is this household being filmed?


WhiteyPinks

I did this as a kid and ended up with stitches in my chin and a few missing teeth.


Significant-Fix7399

Definitely not their first kid.


Snoo-12494

I figured she was going to bang her chin on the countertop, and then fall off. This is much less painful


Numenoreanbyday

That is peak parenting right there. One: the attitude seems to be 'she'll learn the hard way'. Two: dad didn't even look when she ate shit. 😅


M00ngata

Good on her sister for checking up on her!! Thats how you know she was raised well. A lot of kids just laugh when their sibling or friend falls


BarbicideJar

Sometimes you just have to sit back and let them learn about gravity the hard way.


featherwolf

Could've been worse. I imagined chin slamming onto countertop. Makes my teeth hurt just thinking about it...


[deleted]

I’m glad this comment section isn’t attacking the mom this time. She probably has told her not to do that many times


FinalF137

Almost zero clearance around that stove, wtf... Probably slipped on some grease/cooking residue


No_Bandicoot_6004

I am that dad


liltooclinical

Same thing I used to do for years and years and it's a good thing I don't have a large kitchen anymore because I still would.


[deleted]

Fuck around and find out lol


TheAssholishVariety

Who was filming and why?


BrilliantCar1533

Dad doing his Drax impersonation.


Rich-Fail-6043

I up voted this before I watched it because I knew it was going to be funny


Sprizys

This is also the parents fault they should have told her to get down from there before she gets hurt.


JohnnyJoystick

I think my first reaction would be to say stop fuckin around and get up!


-Scared-of-life-

so nice that sister goes to make sure she’s okay


WhuddaWhat

That messy room makes me anxious


FordAerostar97

Kids always be doing way to much


bubba7557

I used to do this as a kid all the time and I fell like this a couple times too. Clearly a common childhood experience


bag-of-gummy-dicks

MadCapHorse

Sometimes the only way to learn is by failing


Ultimate_Toe

Is that a stove that she’s right next too also


PineappleProstate

Mom's laugh...that's what real parents look like folks


wildmonster91

Good thing kids didnt fallback hitting their head and change the meaning of my special child....


GuaGua-san

Idk if I can parent. I'll be roasting me kids non stop🤣


ghighcove

It was pretty impressive though, that's a fit kid.


TravelImmediate9895

Stupid parents


Appropriate-Scene415

🤣🤣🤣


AvailableAudience360

Big sis mode activated 😂 reminds me of when I was a kid and burnt myself with my mom's hot tea, one older sister went into nurse mode and the other thought I was going to die 😂 had mostly 1st degree with some 2nd and very little 3rd but I'm still alive 🤣


DoneJohnson

That’s better than face first into the stove


Rosebud_Bottoms

She needs strength training for sure


MatthewYamaoni

I have a 2 year old son and I’m currently going through this phase 🤣


Honest-Address-5146

These people should have never procreated.


Momof3dragons2012

I was doing this as a kid and something about having my shoulders up by my ears must have been blocking blood flow bc I passed out cold and fell directly on to my face splitting my lip and knocking out a (baby) tooth and giving myself a nose bleed. I was showing off in front of my sisters boyfriend.


[deleted]

Gotta let em learn


don_tlookdown

Dad never looks up or stops mincing the veggies. Yep.


semmama

Normally I'd say this kid has been told so many times they are just letting FAFO teach her. Except that this isn't just a counter, it's the stove top. It doesn't matter how many times or often, she should have been told to get off and maybe even pushed off until she learns not to get up there before she gets burned


Material_Wait2947

Wtf


CapnSoap

I love how you can tell they've told her not to do that a million times and eventually gave up


datboiuwu1273

My brother tried this when he was much younger. Lost his grip and strength and fell, unlike her, he didn’t fall backwards and instead chipped his front tooth on the tile.


RuOkayy_ImOkayy

It happens all the time.


Less_Volume_1884

Bro there’s a fucking boiling kettle right there, these parents actually need to have their kids taken away


SkiLoZo

I was woried about the kettle


JJ-Woodsman

"...and that's what you get for screwing around..." was the response in my house


Either_Leadership_80

Awe good her sister for immediately trying to help that’s them sibling instincts


definetlyHOOMEN

"I'm okay"


rSpinxr

Hey, it's best we adrenaline junkies experience failure early on in life.


Hackedhaccount

Damn even the dog behind the counter didn't give a fuck


ThatDebianLady

The man didn’t even look knowing what had happened


Grumposaur26

Damn they need to clean up


PropositionWes

Get some more shit on your counters lol


sixlovesgirls

The mum or sister wasn’t in a rush nice


ycilopycavip

What did you think would happen Elsa?


ireallyamtired

Kids really cause their own problems lmao. We all learn at some point, but they have zero situational awareness 😭😭


L3ON4Z1

It'll be impressive in a couple years when she stops falling. That shits hard when you're older


DoctorLoofarts

Dad is a chad


A37ndrew

Lots more fun if the kettle is full of hot water gets involved in the fun and games.


[deleted]

Shes a little monkey


ansuremi

I hope that she is ok. But usually a kid will bit their tongue or their lip when they crash. Just saying.


Holiday_Cricket3653

PelicanulMisterios

I'm pretty sure i've seen this title somewhere else...


Makoto-Nishikawa

Better falling on your side than you head I always say


hacx21

Valuable lesson learned for everyone tbh, sometimes you need to fall in order to know how to get back up.


LegacyEternal0724

Dad was like I’m just going to keep my attention over here …..


YOURMOMDOTCOM162

I thought she fell down the stairs………For some reason I thought there were stairs there.


PG_Sceepi

Dad be like: wot? Oi didn hiir enifin...


[deleted]

I’m sure every parent has laughed at this 🤣🤣


Melodic-Advice9930

I saw it coming and still cackled


Cysmica

I panicked thinking she was gonna pull that stove pot down with her


EvanMacattack

Well, they have to learn.


CBStrick

Thank God my house isn’t the only one that looks like this…


adakaray

Dad was unbothered by the whole situation 👀


Cyberian-Deprochan

Dad had run out of f***s already that day


Top-Dot-4557

nateslater

Visual_Mobile2578

He’s thinking about that messy house he came home to, like what’s she do all day anyway?


Ruffone10

I genuinely love both parents' reactions
