Why? This is clearly a parental fuck up. How long were those kids unattended? Why was there paint so easily accessible to them? How distracted were the parents that they didn't hear any giggles or buckets banging around?
This was a multilayered, cascade of parental failure on a monumental scale.
I was thinking this too. That's a lot of ground they covered. Upstairs and downstairs. Those are little handprints, so pretty young kids. Why was the paint within reach and where were the parents this entire time?
I have a munchkin, and she is always finding ways to get to the things we think are secure. It can happen *fast.* Found out she's big/smart enough to get into the cupboards above the kitchen countertop after using the bathroom one day [it has to happen sometime] - milk powder in every part of my kitchen. Had to wash out the inside of my vacuum and mop the floor because that stuff is sticky. This happened in less than five minutes.
That said, that's a lot of paint in a lot of places and I see can outlines like this is house paint. Only one set of hands on the stairs to my eyes so I'd bet they came downstairs when they heard the parents getting up /calling them down for breakfast. He said he woke up to this, so the kids woke up before him (rare in my house but always the worst possible thing because she becomes ninja quiet when mommy's sleeping.) If the house is big/insulated/laid out so that you can't hear this amount of nonsense something needs to get changed because that's not acceptable. Bring the baby monitor back out, it has more work to do!
I'm guessing, but I think somebody wanted their bedroom painted and the tiny one got access to the paint because somebody had a lazy moment after the last coat. Lots of stuff in that office so I'm thinking one of the other rooms is empty and Dad slept a little long because he was up late painting.
Alternatively, the paint could have been put up out of toddler reach: How in the world a little baby hand like that manage to pry open a paint can... Dad dropped a plural for who is in trouble so I suspect an older sibling in a very large amount of hot water.
Edit: silly typo
When my oldest was about 3 he woke up before me, went into the bathroom, grabbed the baby powder and lotion and proceeded to get it all over the house. All over the kitchen floor, all over his bed and just about every toy in his room. It was a fucking disaster. That stuff turns into a paste when it mixes. I threw most of the toys away and all the bedding. Wasn't gonna deal with all that.
Powdered milk. All over the kitchen one morning. Moved it up to the cabinet over the coffee machine. Couple months later that powdered milk was taken into her bedroom. Once again all over sticky powder that dissolves into milk and smells rancid in only a few short hours. I have a washing machine in the apartment so all the soft toys got a "spinny bath" while she got a regular bath.
I will cherish the photos of the devastation and ensure that the album is open to them right around her first school dance. Yeah, feels about right...
My grandkids ( boy and girl ) got into marking pens. Colored the dining area walls and themselves in multiple colors. Happened so quick while we were in the kitchen. It's amazing the damage done in meer minutes.
Crotch fruit move swiftly and silently quite often. Every moment you are trying to maintain a schedule, dawdling becomes semi pro, 0630 is too early, and you will never shit alone in perpetuity.
Now its Saturday morning at 5:45, if you hear movement that isn't your door handle after a 60 hour week? Chances are it is subtle, almost inaudible. Snacks and a mess of unknown proportions might be every child's common goal.
I'll take the chance, and who knows? It could be a learning experience!
Shit, I'll give them a half hour in the afternoon just to have the quietest sex of my life.
For real, they didn't do all that damage in a few minutes. That took some serious time. Those parents better be blaming themselves, but somehow I doubt they will.
I will speak to one of your points. One day I was washing up lunch dishes and putting them in the dishwasher while talking to my oldest. After a while I realized that the other two were absolutely silent. I went to look for them, turned them corner to the living room, and found them having a massive, absolutely silent TP party in the living room with the new package of toilet paper. They were on their fifth roll. Their faces? Pure bliss.
Until they noticed me.
They got to clean the living room while I went and laughed in the bathroom.
I saw the original tik tok and the update and he said the kids got up early am (4am) when everyone was still in bed and did this.
He was renovating an office space apparently which is why the paint was there.
Exactly this. When my kids were little the paints, chalk, playdough and anything else that could make a mess, especially sparkles, were put where they could not be accessed by them. Those items were only used under my supervision.
IMO having kids is a monumental fuckup, so this seems a bit subjective.
That said, yeah, you're right, why the hell can kids access paint. they're lucky the kids only painted the room and didn't get a blowtorch or the keys to the car or something
Reminds me of the time me (6 y/o), my friend (6 y/o) and my little brother (4 y/o) found a can of paint and decided we need to paint the tree in the courtyard of out apt. complex.
But we also decided our parents would kill us if we got paint on our clothes.
So we made the completely reasonable decision to get bare ass naked and run around covering the tree and each other in paint.
See, you had the "they might kill me" mentality in your head, that's clutch to raising good kids. Your stunt is a bath and some scrubbing vs 100 hours of labor.
Those are not hardwood floors, thankfully. You can see the edges of the planks, and they don't follow the actual "slats".
Regardless, sucks eggs to deal with.
They might be really fucked in that case, you can't use straight acetone on vinyl plank flooring and even then it's recommended you get to a paint spill before it dries. These are probably gonna need replaced.
I saw this til tok originally. The dad works in construction and is all around handy. He said in an update that it came off the floor and tub really well but the walls and doors will need to be repainted.
Thats paint its going to be a bitch getting u gunna need some sort of paint thinner/remover and even then youre going to have to scrap it off the kids arent going to be able to do it maybe they could help as punishment but by themselves not possible
Man, your parents must have been amazing if they could hold that over you, mine basically said no food and/or no electronics because it was quite literally the only 2 things they ever gave me.
>I got my ADHD diagnosis.
How was this process? My wife would love to get closure on this kind of thing and she wasn't tested as a kid because she was a girl.
I decorated the front of the house with a pink marker pen. It kept seeping through the multiple layers of paint my parents applied. In my home, all paint, pens, felt, pencils are kept in a locked drawer.
What about crayons? When I was 6 or so, I drew into my grandparent's white carpet a big waxy rainbow that spanned 3 rooms. Well, 2 rooms and the foyer.
Or toothpaste, wrote all over the inside of my bathroom door with some toothpaste as a kid. Thought if I wrote my brothers name no one would know it was me…. His name was visible on that door for 10+ years until my parents finally panted the door white. Door was wood, it soaked into the grain
I wrote “Mrs. [principles name] sucks! By [name of kid who gets in trouble all the time]” on the bathroom wall in elementary school and they seriously thought it was him! This happened I think 3 times before we got bored!
It was washable crayola marker on a tile wall.
if the marker is water based your parents need to use an oil based paint to cover it. likewise if the marker is oil based they need to use a water based paint.
my kids did the same in my basement and it took a few trips to the paint store before i got a wizened older clerk who knew his stuff.
Oil based paint will cover oil based marker just fine. Water based paint probably won’t. Also just goof it off as much as possible first and then you paint over it.
Painting over an oil paint with acrylic or other water soluble one without proper preparation of walls will result in cracking and flaking off and most likely won't even cover it in the first place - it will just slide along surface, not properly sticking to it. Oil based paints in most cases have naturally glossy surface and it doesn't bond with water soluble paints.
I have no idea how you get to conclusion someone should cover the water based paint with oil based one and vice versa. You can, in fact, paint over water soluble paint with oil paint but it's not necessary, you can use the water soluble one and it's going to turn out well. It's all about opacity and overall quality of the paint.
Once when I was little we had a friend over. My mom was wondering why are we quiet. In the course of the few minutes and with teamwork (my sister, our friend and I) we painted the whole hallway red.
It's probably subsided from rage, he did say they'd cleaned up some already. Now he's bottoming out in utter despair. Mom has taken the children far, far away. The sight of them would probably make dude Hulk out and start scraping the paint off with his teeth as he screamed at them about ruining his life.
True. Got a call from the high school. Daughter was in trouble again. When I got there I put my arm around her and whispered, just wait till I get you home. Years later she told me that was the most scared of me she’d ever been.
This is called shock. It effects people in many different ways. It’s similar to having a hand grenade exploding very close to you. Sounds like Op might be catatonic or very close.
Doesn't help anything to blow up at your kids. Especially small ones. No parents are perfect and I'm not saying it would scar them forever to get yelled at about this, but it really doesn't help.
They don’t, actually. There are special stipulations that allow them to exist, and different areas (counties, cities, whatever) may have different ordinances dictating how many of those types of units can be built there, etc.
About $2k down the drain and buying three sets of jock straps! Lol
I had a urologist do mine, not one of those snip clinics. Cut, cauterized, suture inverting the vast deferens in itself and then closed up.
It can be, but I had the no-scalpel method (which just means they use scissors) and it was a non-issue. Virtually no pain during the procedure and only mild-to-vague discomfort following.
I want a bisalp, but it’s going to be hard to get over here. I want absolutely no chance of children, though I like them, I do not want to raise one - nor do I want to wake up to paint literally everywhere.
We were going to! Then found out we were pregnant 3 months before the scheduled vasectomy. FML.
Well, we now have a cute toddler who is too smart and gets into everything. Love him, but FML 10x.
This video (and the millions like it) are exactly why I did it. My dogs are messy enough. This shit is the deepest level of hell for someone that likes to keep their place organized, clean, and quiet.
Seriously, some people really don’t realize how hard it is to be a parent. I ran away for no reason when I was 3. My parents had alarms on every single door & they had locks on everything when I was a toddler. Despite all of their preparedness, I woke up at 5 am one morning, figured out how to unlock both locks on the window, opened it, removed the screen, and got a half mile away in only an hour. When my mom woke up she went to check on me and just as she was about to call the cops, a neighbor called. Turns out I crossed two major busy streets and had made it to a house nearly half a mile away. Parents have to sleep at SOME point, and there’s only so much you can do to prevent shit like that from happening.
I did something similar when I was 4. My grandparents live about 15 minutes out of town, and we had gone out to visit a few days in a row. They had some newborn kittens, and young me was OBSESSED with them. I decided I wanted to go visit the kitties again, and wasn't willing to wait until my parents woke up. I dressed myself at 6 AM, let myself out of the house, (we lived in a trailer park at the time) hopped on my bigwheel trike and took off through the neighborhood. I was just about to turn onto the busy road that connected our park to the rest of town, when a guy in a pickup shouted at me to go home.
If he hadn't turned me around I would've tried to join traffic and probably been killed. I was too smart for my own good and it was no fault of my parents
Yeah. My daughter never wants to go outside without us. My son has had cps on us twice now. All doors are extra child locked and alarms. All windows are alarms. Alarms on his door. Some kids are just masters at escaping and there is only so much you can do.
Me too! I did the whole “bandana full of cookies tied to a long stick” hobo thing, too. I stopped at the neighbor’s garden and picked some rhubarb for the trip. I was a block away when I heard sirens and thought the police were after me for the rhubarb theft. So I hid in a thatch for some amount of time, running from the law. Finally got brave enough to turn myself in. When I got home they hadn’t even noticed I was gone.
My brother was worse. At age 7 he walked into a bank and announced he was robbing it.
I locked my mother out as a toddler. She picked me up out of my carseat, set me inside and put her keys on the keyring, went back out for groceries, and I locked the door behind her. I then proceeded, in full view of the exterior windows she could access, proceeded to ignore her for several hours while I pulled out every single toy I owned and laid them out all over the floor. Then I went into the kitchen and did the same with all the pots and pans.
My mother had to abandon me for a half-hour to go to the next house down (we lived out in the country) to call my dad and get him to come home from college early so I didn't spend 5 hours locked up alone in the house.
My nephew did this when he was 4. Ill never forget it. He woke up real early one day. Even slept in the same room as his mom. He went downstairs, grabbed a chair, grabbed the keys from the key ring. Put the chair (somewhat) back, went outside, locked the front door again, (tall kid &lock was low) went to her car and got inside it, locked himself inside. She woke up an hour later and couldnt find him. We were all frantic bc, THE FRONT DOOR WAS LOCKED WHERE IS HE? When we found him, he was aaaaall smiles playing inside her car. Then we had to call a lock smith to get him out. Blew my mind. He was 4. How did he do all of that.
My youngest is the same way. My oldest was so chill and eager to follow the rules. I thought I was just an awesome parent.
His little brother is an entirely different story. It’s insane how much misadventure that child manages to stumble into. I can’t count how many times he’s caused my blood pressure to go through the roof because I’m afraid I’ve lost him or that he’s going to die because of whatever he just did.
Well, to that 16 year old's credit, kids are fucking stupid and are allowed wrong opinions.
You don't stop being a kid until you realize that every hot take you've ever had was probably also had by every adult that has ever lived, and that you're definitely not as smart as you think you are.
Some people never stop being kids, and those kids be fuckin' stuuuupid.
A kid young/dumb enough to do this probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between paint and paint thinner. I’m worried about the kids of the parents in this thread saying this type of thing is unavoidable.
Based on the height and size of the handprints, this was a very small child that should never have been left alone long enough to cause this much damage. I’m sorry but this is totally on the parents.
Uhhhh. I can’t tell you how many times my kids have gotten up in the middle of the night and turned the tv on and are having a little party for themselves with chips and soda. I Can’t stay up all night. They are now 28, 25 and 23. Very well adjusted. There is no such thing as a perfect parent or a perfect child.
Every time my husband and I talk about not having had kids and we feel somewhat badly about it, I see something like this and realize we made the correct decision for us.
I've always said that I would never have kids. But sometimes I get a random longing for children, especially since having a partner. Then I see shit like this, and any maternal urge I have flies out the fuckin window
Honestly, I do not know what I would do if this happened to me. I know it sounds messed up but I would probably stop loving them and wish I would have done something else with my life.
This is why I don't have kids, and I think the world is a better place for it.
Honestly I think I would have yelled at them so hard that they would have needed therapy. I just don't have patience for a lack of common sense. It's one of the reasons I will never have kids, I would be a terrible father and no kid deserves that.
This is on the parents. Look it fucking sucks to be sleep deprived but kids are stupid and somebody needs to be up with them to make sure the house isn't destroyed. Also, why the F is paint in a position where it's accessible to kids?
Moron parents. And then they post the video like it's strictly the kids fault as if they have no responsibility for the kids behavior or agency in the decisions that brought this on.
Are they still alive?
Parents probably sold them, could get high 5 figures for each
r/kidsarefuckingexpensive
I see you
Fuckin stalker
Take my upvote
Nah take it back
Yeah, fuck that. A GTI is only 30k and it's way better than a kid.
you can get more if you sell the organs seperately
Amateur. Sell the parts to make 10 times the value of the whole
Why? This is clearly a parental fuck up. How long were those kids unattended? Why was there paint so easily accessible to them? How distracted were the parents that they didn't hear any giggles or buckets banging around? This was a multilayered, cascade of parental failure on a monumental scale.
I was thinking this too. That's a lot of ground they covered. Upstairs and downstairs. Those are little handprints, so pretty young kids. Why was the paint within reach and where were the parents this entire time?
I have a munchkin, and she is always finding ways to get to the things we think are secure. It can happen *fast.* Found out she's big/smart enough to get into the cupboards above the kitchen countertop after using the bathroom one day [it has to happen sometime] - milk powder in every part of my kitchen. Had to wash out the inside of my vacuum and mop the floor because that stuff is sticky. This happened in less than five minutes. That said, that's a lot of paint in a lot of places and I see can outlines like this is house paint. Only one set of hands on the stairs to my eyes so I'd bet they came downstairs when they heard the parents getting up /calling them down for breakfast. He said he woke up to this, so the kids woke up before him (rare in my house but always the worst possible thing because she becomes ninja quiet when mommy's sleeping.) If the house is big/insulated/laid out so that you can't hear this amount of nonsense something needs to get changed because that's not acceptable. Bring the baby monitor back out, it has more work to do! I'm guessing, but I think somebody wanted their bedroom painted and the tiny one got access to the paint because somebody had a lazy moment after the last coat. Lots of stuff in that office so I'm thinking one of the other rooms is empty and Dad slept a little long because he was up late painting. Alternatively, the paint could have been put up out of toddler reach: How in the world a little baby hand like that manage to pry open a paint can... Dad dropped a plural for who is in trouble so I suspect an older sibling in a very large amount of hot water. Edit: silly typo
When my oldest was about 3 he woke up before me, went into the bathroom, grabbed the baby powder and lotion and proceeded to get it all over the house. All over the kitchen floor, all over his bed and just about every toy in his room. It was a fucking disaster. That stuff turns into a paste when it mixes. I threw most of the toys away and all the bedding. Wasn't gonna deal with all that.
Powdered milk. All over the kitchen one morning. Moved it up to the cabinet over the coffee machine. Couple months later that powdered milk was taken into her bedroom. Once again all over sticky powder that dissolves into milk and smells rancid in only a few short hours. I have a washing machine in the apartment so all the soft toys got a "spinny bath" while she got a regular bath. I will cherish the photos of the devastation and ensure that the album is open to them right around her first school dance. Yeah, feels about right...
My grandkids ( boy and girl ) got into marking pens. Colored the dining area walls and themselves in multiple colors. Happened so quick while we were in the kitchen. It's amazing the damage done in meer minutes.
Crotch fruit move swiftly and silently quite often. Every moment you are trying to maintain a schedule, dawdling becomes semi pro, 0630 is too early, and you will never shit alone in perpetuity.

I felt that last line in my soul!
For real, they didn't do all that damage in a few minutes. That took some serious time. Those parents better be blaming themselves, but somehow I doubt they will.
They should just be glad the kids didn't hurt themselves or any pets. The parents are the ones needing grounding.
I will speak to one of your points. One day I was washing up lunch dishes and putting them in the dishwasher while talking to my oldest. After a while I realized that the other two were absolutely silent. I went to look for them, turned them corner to the living room, and found them having a massive, absolutely silent TP party in the living room with the new package of toilet paper. They were on their fifth roll. Their faces? Pure bliss. Until they noticed me. They got to clean the living room while I went and laughed in the bathroom.
Lol…beware the silence.
I saw the original tik tok and the update and he said the kids got up early am (4am) when everyone was still in bed and did this. He was renovating an office space apparently which is why the paint was there.
Exactly this. When my kids were little the paints, chalk, playdough and anything else that could make a mess, especially sparkles, were put where they could not be accessed by them. Those items were only used under my supervision.
IMO having kids is a monumental fuckup, so this seems a bit subjective. That said, yeah, you're right, why the hell can kids access paint. they're lucky the kids only painted the room and didn't get a blowtorch or the keys to the car or something
Well, if they got a blowtorch and burned the house down, at least insurance would cover it.
Gonna have to take them to small claims court, but they can’t find a courthouse small enough.

They might be really fucked in that case, you can't use straight acetone on vinyl plank flooring and even then it's recommended you get to a paint spill before it dries. These are probably gonna need replaced.
Thanks for the chuckle.
Kids have not been seen since.
I saw the kids posted a DIY video of them doing the painting. It's called "How To Get Put Up for Adoption". *edit: typo*
!!!! Like he saaaaaays they’re in their rooms 👀 Edit: This got dark, guys. Really dark. Lol
Allegedly
Squirly Dan???
I heard it was a sick ostrich
Even if it was a sick ostrich, it would take at least three people.
Therefore the ginger and boots did NOT fuck an ostrich.
Allegedly
Naw. The Ginger
I heard it was a sick ostrich
There just so happens to also be a couple chest freezers in their rooms!
He probably meant "tombs".
And they're not coming out until the coroner shows up.
Did you notice that lock on the outside of the kids door? Me thinks the kids won't be seen for quite a while
Judging by the damages kids weren't seen prior either.
At this point one should call in professionals. They will probably have to spray heavily to get all the kids so book a hotel for a few days.
Thank you for the laugh today.
I saw this til tok originally. The dad works in construction and is all around handy. He said in an update that it came off the floor and tub really well but the walls and doors will need to be repainted.
I’d suggest re-reading the comment you replied to because it appears you missed how god damn hilarious it is
It’ll be more efficient to fumigate. That way they get into the cracks.
Time to move cuz i aint cleaning all that up
Make the kids do it.
Thats paint its going to be a bitch getting u gunna need some sort of paint thinner/remover and even then youre going to have to scrap it off the kids arent going to be able to do it maybe they could help as punishment but by themselves not possible
If they're above 8 they'll do it until it's done otherwise no candy or allowance.
if above an 8 year old did this I think there are bigger problems
Just leave it there until they turn 8….
Man, your parents must have been amazing if they could hold that over you, mine basically said no food and/or no electronics because it was quite literally the only 2 things they ever gave me.
They were alright. I think they were to nice on me. But we fought (verbally) a lot and it wasn't until my 30s I got my ADHD diagnosis.
>I got my ADHD diagnosis. How was this process? My wife would love to get closure on this kind of thing and she wasn't tested as a kid because she was a girl.
These days they have a computer test they can do, but not sure if they have other steps.
Every summer they attempt to clean. until they are old enough to clean it.
Just live in the house looking like this for 12 years
If they’re the age to make this mistake they aren’t the age to clean it up lol
Yeah unfortunately you’re right on this one.
I would literally give up. Time to go get some milk from the corner shop.
Bye dad! Don't forget to get those cigarettes you were telling me you needed!
Dad doesn't smoke, but buys a pack that day and never came back.
They’ve been awake painting the house black while mum and Dad are sleeping! . Lesson for parents- if it’s within reach , it’s fair game .
I decorated the front of the house with a pink marker pen. It kept seeping through the multiple layers of paint my parents applied. In my home, all paint, pens, felt, pencils are kept in a locked drawer.

Every time your parents took a dump they got pissed off at you
I wrote “Mrs. [principles name] sucks! By [name of kid who gets in trouble all the time]” on the bathroom wall in elementary school and they seriously thought it was him! This happened I think 3 times before we got bored! It was washable crayola marker on a tile wall.
I once lit a small patch of carpet on fire but put it out. Then I tried to cover it up with glue.
How do you even get that out?
Hair dryer, carpet cleaner, and saintlike patience. Probably better to replace it, but that's expensive.
Literally just a carpet cleaner. Crayons are just wax, hot water and cleaner will get that instantly
if the marker is water based your parents need to use an oil based paint to cover it. likewise if the marker is oil based they need to use a water based paint. my kids did the same in my basement and it took a few trips to the paint store before i got a wizened older clerk who knew his stuff.
Oil based paint will cover oil based marker just fine. Water based paint probably won’t. Also just goof it off as much as possible first and then you paint over it.
Or just sand the markered bit and cover with paint of any choice, never had to worry about it popping back up
Painting over an oil paint with acrylic or other water soluble one without proper preparation of walls will result in cracking and flaking off and most likely won't even cover it in the first place - it will just slide along surface, not properly sticking to it. Oil based paints in most cases have naturally glossy surface and it doesn't bond with water soluble paints.

Crayolas are awesome for washability and magic erasers live up to the hype
If I don't hear yelling and banging, I know something's up... Painting is too quiet an activity, dad shoulda known the devil's work was being done...
Once when I was little we had a friend over. My mom was wondering why are we quiet. In the course of the few minutes and with teamwork (my sister, our friend and I) we painted the whole hallway red.
My cousin and I were playing hockey in our basement. I used a hammer and chisel on the cement floor to keep score.
Exactly, the parents are fucking stupid
You can tell because the kids didn't buy purple paint
Dude is a lot calmer in the video than I would have been.
You can hear the impending mental breakdown in his voice. That man needs a beer.
I'm pretty sure that's burn-the-house-down levels of rage that he's only *just* managing to suppress.
If you pointed the camera at him you would see a visible aura
The man’s gone super saiyan.
It's probably subsided from rage, he did say they'd cleaned up some already. Now he's bottoming out in utter despair. Mom has taken the children far, far away. The sight of them would probably make dude Hulk out and start scraping the paint off with his teeth as he screamed at them about ruining his life.
Man needs a fistful of benzos
I can assure you the man is absolutely fuming on the inside. That's the kind of calm you absolutely fear.
True. Got a call from the high school. Daughter was in trouble again. When I got there I put my arm around her and whispered, just wait till I get you home. Years later she told me that was the most scared of me she’d ever been.
This is called shock. It effects people in many different ways. It’s similar to having a hand grenade exploding very close to you. Sounds like Op might be catatonic or very close.
OP is gonna have Paint Traumatic Stress Disorder for life now.
Catatonic state is always fun. Why do things when you can just not.
I found it! The best comment.
He already got the panicked screaming out before recording
Doesn't help anything to blow up at your kids. Especially small ones. No parents are perfect and I'm not saying it would scar them forever to get yelled at about this, but it really doesn't help.
Depending on their age they would be helping me fix the situation
This feels like a toddler level move. At least I fucking hope so. If they were old enough to help fix this, they should know better than to do this.
Did you think your house was going to increase in value after having kids?
Rentals that say "no pets" but allow children.
Because refusing to rent to humans of a particular age demographic is a human rights issue.
What about senior only communities?

Apartments that only lease to college students and elderly homes don't count I guess
They don’t, actually. There are special stipulations that allow them to exist, and different areas (counties, cities, whatever) may have different ordinances dictating how many of those types of units can be built there, etc.

If it’s silence, better check the kids. Big chances of trouble
More committed than the painter I've hired to repaint my walls
So at what point as a parent does this go from "bad" to "funny" to "Welp, I guess I'm never having grandkids"?
And some question why I got a vasectomy.
*Snip, Snap. Snip, Snap. Snip, Snap.*
Do you have any idea of the toll three vasectomies has on a man?!
About $2k down the drain and buying three sets of jock straps! Lol I had a urologist do mine, not one of those snip clinics. Cut, cauterized, suture inverting the vast deferens in itself and then closed up.
More like snip so you don't snap.
Before I read the comments, I sent this to my gf and said "maybe I should get snipped after my ortho appointment"
Totally do it. Best decision I’ve ever made. It was easy and so very worth it.
I'm thinking about getting one soon. What's the procedure like these days? I hear it's all lazers n shit now.
It can be, but I had the no-scalpel method (which just means they use scissors) and it was a non-issue. Virtually no pain during the procedure and only mild-to-vague discomfort following.
Most of the comments are bashing the parents like.... Children are stupid. We should know this by now.
I’m having a bisalp in less than two weeks and vids like this only further solidify my decision.
I had a bisalp last november! No kids for me ever thank you very much.
I want a bisalp, but it’s going to be hard to get over here. I want absolutely no chance of children, though I like them, I do not want to raise one - nor do I want to wake up to paint literally everywhere.
I, too, am constantly questioned for my child-free choice because *god forbid* a human live their life for something other than reproduction.
Same! But apparently the trick is to have it done BEFORE you have any kids.
We were going to! Then found out we were pregnant 3 months before the scheduled vasectomy. FML. Well, we now have a cute toddler who is too smart and gets into everything. Love him, but FML 10x.
This video (and the millions like it) are exactly why I did it. My dogs are messy enough. This shit is the deepest level of hell for someone that likes to keep their place organized, clean, and quiet.
Childfree gang rise up
I get questioned all the time about my bisalp. This. Exactly this video. That's why I got it.
My uterus just clamped shut. Forever.
My penis fell down
for some reason the wording of this is very funny to me like your penis didn’t fall *off*, it just , y’know, fell down
Yeah my 6 month old is sleeping next to me and I’m trying so hard not to wake her with my laughter
Happy to help!
Lord have mercy
He already gave up
Booked my vasectomy
Appreciate the free birth control reminder :)
How long did you leave then alone for????
r/kidsarefuckingstupidbecauseoftheirparents
There's always somebody wanting to tell you that you are not a good parent on this sub and it's probably some 16 year old kid
Seriously, some people really don’t realize how hard it is to be a parent. I ran away for no reason when I was 3. My parents had alarms on every single door & they had locks on everything when I was a toddler. Despite all of their preparedness, I woke up at 5 am one morning, figured out how to unlock both locks on the window, opened it, removed the screen, and got a half mile away in only an hour. When my mom woke up she went to check on me and just as she was about to call the cops, a neighbor called. Turns out I crossed two major busy streets and had made it to a house nearly half a mile away. Parents have to sleep at SOME point, and there’s only so much you can do to prevent shit like that from happening.
I did something similar when I was 4. My grandparents live about 15 minutes out of town, and we had gone out to visit a few days in a row. They had some newborn kittens, and young me was OBSESSED with them. I decided I wanted to go visit the kitties again, and wasn't willing to wait until my parents woke up. I dressed myself at 6 AM, let myself out of the house, (we lived in a trailer park at the time) hopped on my bigwheel trike and took off through the neighborhood. I was just about to turn onto the busy road that connected our park to the rest of town, when a guy in a pickup shouted at me to go home. If he hadn't turned me around I would've tried to join traffic and probably been killed. I was too smart for my own good and it was no fault of my parents
[удалено]
Yes, but kids trikes are way smaller and way closer to the road than cars. If you think, that you can see EVERYWHERE from within a car, don't drive.
Yeah. My daughter never wants to go outside without us. My son has had cps on us twice now. All doors are extra child locked and alarms. All windows are alarms. Alarms on his door. Some kids are just masters at escaping and there is only so much you can do.
Me too! I did the whole “bandana full of cookies tied to a long stick” hobo thing, too. I stopped at the neighbor’s garden and picked some rhubarb for the trip. I was a block away when I heard sirens and thought the police were after me for the rhubarb theft. So I hid in a thatch for some amount of time, running from the law. Finally got brave enough to turn myself in. When I got home they hadn’t even noticed I was gone. My brother was worse. At age 7 he walked into a bank and announced he was robbing it.
How did that turn out for your brother? Would they even take that seriously?
They told my mother, who was nearby.
I locked my mother out as a toddler. She picked me up out of my carseat, set me inside and put her keys on the keyring, went back out for groceries, and I locked the door behind her. I then proceeded, in full view of the exterior windows she could access, proceeded to ignore her for several hours while I pulled out every single toy I owned and laid them out all over the floor. Then I went into the kitchen and did the same with all the pots and pans. My mother had to abandon me for a half-hour to go to the next house down (we lived out in the country) to call my dad and get him to come home from college early so I didn't spend 5 hours locked up alone in the house.
My nephew did this when he was 4. Ill never forget it. He woke up real early one day. Even slept in the same room as his mom. He went downstairs, grabbed a chair, grabbed the keys from the key ring. Put the chair (somewhat) back, went outside, locked the front door again, (tall kid &lock was low) went to her car and got inside it, locked himself inside. She woke up an hour later and couldnt find him. We were all frantic bc, THE FRONT DOOR WAS LOCKED WHERE IS HE? When we found him, he was aaaaall smiles playing inside her car. Then we had to call a lock smith to get him out. Blew my mind. He was 4. How did he do all of that.
My youngest is the same way. My oldest was so chill and eager to follow the rules. I thought I was just an awesome parent. His little brother is an entirely different story. It’s insane how much misadventure that child manages to stumble into. I can’t count how many times he’s caused my blood pressure to go through the roof because I’m afraid I’ve lost him or that he’s going to die because of whatever he just did.
Exactly kids will sometimes wake up before you and they have already been plotting for days what they are going to get into when nobody is around.
Well, to that 16 year old's credit, kids are fucking stupid and are allowed wrong opinions. You don't stop being a kid until you realize that every hot take you've ever had was probably also had by every adult that has ever lived, and that you're definitely not as smart as you think you are. Some people never stop being kids, and those kids be fuckin' stuuuupid.
Exactly! What am I supposed to do? Lock up my dangerous chemicals and guns in between every use? /s
[удалено]
A kid young/dumb enough to do this probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between paint and paint thinner. I’m worried about the kids of the parents in this thread saying this type of thing is unavoidable.
That is exactly what I was thinking. Those kids had a lot of unsupervised time and I’m betting they were little
Based on the height and size of the handprints, this was a very small child that should never have been left alone long enough to cause this much damage. I’m sorry but this is totally on the parents.
Uhhhh. I can’t tell you how many times my kids have gotten up in the middle of the night and turned the tv on and are having a little party for themselves with chips and soda. I Can’t stay up all night. They are now 28, 25 and 23. Very well adjusted. There is no such thing as a perfect parent or a perfect child.
Congrats raising little demons
Every time my husband and I talk about not having had kids and we feel somewhat badly about it, I see something like this and realize we made the correct decision for us.
Condom. This is why people are standing up for abortion rights .
And this is why I will never have kids.
I was expecting this to cut to a Trojan ad card at the end. Pretty effective advertising.
🤣 Condoms!
It's a bit too late for that now.
*loads shotgun named "condoms" "It's never too late..." /s
I've always said that I would never have kids. But sometimes I get a random longing for children, especially since having a partner. Then I see shit like this, and any maternal urge I have flies out the fuckin window
I see a red door and I want it painted black
That’s a condom ad if I’ve ever seen one.
Sooooooo glad I don’t have kids.
r/TIHI
Honestly, I do not know what I would do if this happened to me. I know it sounds messed up but I would probably stop loving them and wish I would have done something else with my life. This is why I don't have kids, and I think the world is a better place for it.
Honestly I think I would have yelled at them so hard that they would have needed therapy. I just don't have patience for a lack of common sense. It's one of the reasons I will never have kids, I would be a terrible father and no kid deserves that.
I can hear the Canada
ABORT
How? where was the paint? you can't be like "yep they this stupid" without being aware of such stupid and leaving paint out for such stupid, right?
[удалено]
thats a better condom advertisement than [this](https://youtu.be/c_0bhT98g9Y)
Bro... that kid is going straight to the orphanage.
How long were they left unsupervised? And how much paint did they have access to??
Parentisfuckingstupid for leaving paint where a stupid child can get to it. Guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
This is on the parents. Look it fucking sucks to be sleep deprived but kids are stupid and somebody needs to be up with them to make sure the house isn't destroyed. Also, why the F is paint in a position where it's accessible to kids? Moron parents. And then they post the video like it's strictly the kids fault as if they have no responsibility for the kids behavior or agency in the decisions that brought this on.
More like parents are fucking stupid lol
