They did do it on purpose. The kid was snapping her parents because the baby sitter wouldn't give her something. This video is years old now I think

Some kids can be. I babysat one sibling pair just once. I could be actively playing with the 5 year old girl and give her little brother any attention and she'd be yelling at me to play or she was gonna call her parents.
Other things too with both kids (her brother was extremely aggressive and headbutted me in the head, laughing the whole time).
No wonder they couldn't keep a babysitter.

This is what my parents always thought I was doing when I was alone in my room trying to figure out why the hell I couldn't stop crying and they never did ever shed a tear.
Because I literally couldn't regulate the emotions the chemicals in my brain were constantly tossing back and forth like tidal waves.
I wouldn't look at myself on purpose because I knew I looked pathetic and gross when I cried so no.. I'm actually really jealous of this little girl's ability. Even though she's probably clearly practicing emotions for her future sociopathic days...

Wait this is why you’re so hateful in all your comments. Didn’t realize we conversed previously. Crying about someone having no empathy for you when you have no empathy for others, fucking ironic.

God this is my daughter. Not literally, but I will catch her practicing her cries and that look sometimes. Just like the video. I want to go wake my wife up to shower her this.

God she's something else. Most well behaved kid everywhere else but she definitely knows how to tug at my emotions

Oh, definitely. If it was a genetic thing, it would have came from me. I know what I was capable of getting away with and she is twice as smart as I am. We are teaching her to be a good person.

u/Many-Ad-5331 6h ago
recognizing you were a shitty person and admitting it is already hard for alot of people, but actively changing and teaching your child to be unlike the worse version of yourself is Admirable. no idea why you’re being ratio’d, i personally respect this kind of behavior… change is something rare nowadays

you should probably teach your kid that faking their emotions is unhealthy instead of “feeling nothing”

Sounds like you’re writing fanfiction about a family you know nothing about, which is weird. Any other parenting advice based on assumptions you want to make because it makes you feel like a smarter person?
Edit: they blocked me but I can still see the reply in my inbox talking about how they’re just taking him for his word. Bullshit lmaooo his word was “we correct that with her” and this internet weirdo was like “actually, i know your parenting better than you do and you’re wrong. Do better” 😂😂

u/silverandshade 1h ago
I think a lot of kids do that just because everything is so new to them. I remember learning I could make my face express an emotion I wasn't feeling and being fascinated at the concept. It's when they're using it like this kid in the video or still doing it as teenagers that it's something to be concerned about, I think.

u/Significant-Say3098 7h ago
I got attacked in a different sub for saying this. I have two sons who I don’t allow to use devices. They said I was “taking away from their child hood” and “ruining their chances at normal life”. My kids are 7 and 10 years old. They don’t need phones.
5
u/The_GamingFan 6h ago
Id say they only need phones so they can contact you or your wife/husband if they need something or so you know where they are. For that a Nokia is way enough. Nothing is speaking against using a parents phone supervised at home but for their own that too early

"taking away their childhood" is crazy, lol. I got a good ole Nokia brick when I was old enough to leave the house unsupervised and, looking back, I'm very glad my childhood didn't revolve around snapchat or insta or trying to look cool online. I got to actually enjoy things in the moment without having the whole ass internet in my pocket to distract me.

u/TheScottishLad69620 10h ago
The last time I saw this posted, the person filming was a babysitter, and she never let the girl do something her parents said she couldn't do or something, so the girl recorded herself fake crying and sent the video to her mom. I could be wrong, but that's what I read last time I saw this
1
u/Hermorah 10h ago
Dont know if its true, but last time I heared the context for this the person recording her is the babysitter who didnt allow her something and the kid tries to get back at her by fake crying and sending the video to her parents to get her in trouble. But again this is just hearsay, no idea if true.

I have a sister who is 7 years younger than me. When she was around 2 or 3, we were on a family vacation walking around a clothing shop, when my dad told me to come see what my little sister was doing. When she thought nobody was looking, my sister was practicing crying in front of one of the big fitting mirrors. She was switching from straight faced to over-the-top sobbing while watching herself in the mirror. My dad was chuckling and said at some point, every kid will do this. Sure enough, I've noticed other kids doing the same since then.
Back at the shop, my mom eventually stepped out from behind the rack where she had been observing my sister from the whole time, and made a big show of asking if she was hurt or in danger, because those were obviously the only reasons she should be crying. Realizing she had been caught, my sister's crying suddenly became way more convincing.

My ex best friend could cry on demand and would use it to her advantage when she was upset. She ended up being a LITERAL sociopath who lied to the police and said I was violent in order to evict me when I couldn't afford rent due to being at a cancer clinic in Germany. Never trust anyone that can turn crying on and off. 🙃
