most of these childrens' reactions are gut wrenching, some you can chuckle at though.

So basically they interrupt there kids unannounced and shut shit down like they did something wrong which they didn't. Then are suprised they get a backslash for there shit.
Maybe next time the kids should steal the car keys so they can't get to there job / whatever "important thing" they got to visit and then say you did it on purpose because you are gassing our future on this planet. Also time for one parent to stop working and actually spend some quality time with us kids. Oh wait you like your big house / luxurious life to much.
Lets see how mom and dad reacts.
The fact they do this, is exactly why those kids go so berserk on them. Its called failed parenting.

personally I find that the parents who submit these videos that make their kids the butt of a joke for all of the world to see are not the most respectable adults out there....the kids reactions are due to either being raised like that or they arent developmentally mature to know how to handle the situation other than lash out, which makes sense since most don't look like teens even.

A lot of parents do the thing now, where you can swear at home but not at people or teachers or bosses ect. Instead of making it some powerful taboo, it's something you learn when it is appropriate ect.

Yep, it's almost as if these parents don't realize they have the ability to influence their children's behavior and these video reflect more on those parents than it does their children.

Maybe so, but if I ever laid a hand on my parents I wouldn't be alive right now.

Now imagine when they are 18 and 21 carrying the same entitled behavioral patterns, but allowed to make certain decisions that impact more than just themselves or immediate family. Then repeating the ever regressing cycles with kids of their own.

the worst I said was calling my dad a baboon once (a la Lisa to Homer) when I was upset. I got shoved into a corner and never to open my mouth again.
corners are not utilized enough in this day an age. you feel helpless blocked in by walls on either side with the authoritarian voice scolding from directly in front.

Such an overreaction for a mindless prank. The fact that you're suggesting "the kids should steal the car keys so they can't get to there job / whatever "important thing" they got to visit and then say you did it on purpose because you are gassing our future on this planet" speaks volumes about your mindset over a few seconds lost on a game.

this reminds me of a thread we had recently of the streaming AustraliaMan and his wife.

The hitting was definitely going way too far. That said the parents shouldn’t pull that either. Do it before or after a game then see the reaction. It’s like stopping someone from running when they’re mid-race with others.

Shitty parents have shitty kids. Who would have thought that?
Imagine being the kind of parent who listens to advice to fuck with your kid's video game out of the blue, does it, films a terrible reaction, and then thinks it's a good idea to put that reaction on national television?
I'm not watching the video because I hate cringe-worthy crap like this, but I have to think the parents are worse than anything their kids would be doing here. At least the kids have the excuse "Not only am I a kid, but I'm also being raised by the kind of parents who would do this."

And because they, of course, filter out the worst before they put it on the TV.

I’ve had to do that quite often with my 9-year old. I try really hard to give him timelines and plenty of warning about when it’s time to turn the game off. It’s gotten to the point of him flat out ignoring me, which flat out doesn’t fly. Game gets turned off immediately and further punishment typically comes with additional outbursts. The other thing that drives me up a wall is when he starts whining/crying/arguing with his friends about the game.
That said, doing it as a joke for social media is stupid and just propagates bad behavior.

I turned off Jimmy Kimmel while my kids were watching, and they didn't notice.

Who's going to pay for your next Fortnite skin or dance that you can't live without if mommy and daddy stop working and sit at home? Who paid for the device that you are currently playing on to begin with? Comparing the importance of a job in life to a video game speaks volumes about the entitlement and delusion of kids these days. Also, as if parents staying home is really going to convince kids to stop being obsessed with a video game and want to spend quality time with the parent instead...

Speaking of which, how did Epic games go from the badass and bloody Gears of War series to literally a game for kids?

Adults would be at least as bad, if not worse— such as Aussie Streamer Dude, who slapped his wife because she was interfering with his precious ForkKnife time.
The behavior doesn’t change much from 10 years old to 30 when you refuse to mature.
But child abuse
Why can't they do both?
