Haven't we seen this before? Anyway...

Maybe I'm in a taking-this-too-serious mood, but not finding it "funny" when all I can think of this is just a stupid TikTok "challenge" thing... BUT it is facinating social study. Adults using (abusing?) kids as tools for likes & subs. How the kids react to the adult's shenanigans.

Observation? This is the hilarious beginning to the end of civilisation I tell ya! We're not getting a hopeful Star Trek finale to humanity! The end is NIGH! LOL.

As a kid whose family thought it was funny to constantly fuck with me, this creates adults who distrust people both in general and individually.

Carrying a bit of cynicism is a good thing in general, as long as it doesn't fall into paranoia. I'm all for siblings & peers pranking each other, but coming from parents... that's a bit much. It leaves scars.

My dad liked to play “kill the kid” where if he caught me walking in the road he would drive at me at 15-20mph, I would jump on the hood, he would hit the breaks so I rolled off, then he would drive off. He said it was to see what the neighbors would do, but he did it at our ranch with no neighbors to see more than once, so…..
Call it a prank, inappropriate joking, fun between a dad and his weird kid, or serious child abuse, it sure beat how my brother treated me…but yes, it left multiple scars I can still see 45 years later…they’re not the only ones. Growing up in Texas in the 70s was dangerous.
Nobody ever said anything. I know some of the neighbors and my mother saw him do it. That’s way scarier and more scaring than the car coming at me.
(Side note- Just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t trying to get me!)
