Simply awesome!
Dad uses Facebook to teach daughter a lesson. A 15-year-old puts up a Facebook post bashing her parents for making her work too hard, dad reacts by posting a video response to her grievances on her Facebook page.
Link. Be sure to watch the whole video AND the ending. |

Lool, hilarious. Good on him.
The getting a job at 15 seems harsh though, you can't even legally get a job here at 15. |

Eep, I said can instead of can't. That's pretty cool you can earn your own money at that age. Over here you don't get a National Insurance card until you're 16 which you need to legally work, even then, no one likes 16yos and the pay is awful. |
Re: Simply awesome!
In the US you need to get a work permit from the city to be able to work at 15 and even then it's very unlikely anybody would hire them~

Re: Simply awesome!
That had to be some of the best good ol' fashioned redneck parenting I've seen in quite a while.
*sniff* So beautiful. |

Re: Simply awesome!
Ok, so
- Paying $130 and spending time to install software, and then shooting up the thing? You have got to be joking - "You are disrespectful to every adult in your life": AGEISM as justification for this shit? This is basically being like "stay in your place, we're your parents, you suck". I wonder how worried the daughter is now about being a perfect little princess (read: servant) to the world! - His thing about his past is making him all "my life sucked, so yours will too" about this. And how exactly will being this stupid fix your daughter? Again, instead of being a supportive parent to EXPLAIN things to her, he tries using forced BS. - Rather than fixing up the relationship, this is trying to coerce the daughter into humiliation. Humiliating your daughter online instead of trying to help her as a supportive parent? GG man, how do you feel about yourself? - School does take some significant time too, and a lot of other factors can be taken into account - clubs, community service, hobbies. "Get up and get on the bus. that's all your responsibilities" - so actually *gasp* concentrating on school to help get a good future isn't a responsibility?!?! If you ask me, this is very close to psychological abuse. The "bullet into the laptop" is nothing more than a compulsive act of revenge on the daughter to try making the father feel better. This is an example of how reasoning isn't being used, but instead force and bad parenting. I'm starting to think this video is viral also because it is bad parenting. This could have simply been solved with a reasonable discussion between the parents and the daughter. But NOPE, looks like the father had to go all internet attention whore and show a lack of empathy for his daughter. |
Re: Simply awesome!
In b4 kid tells the whole world that her life is a living hell with her parents.
He did what's best for her, and from what I am understanding, she does not work, does not appreciate anything her parents do for her, and STILL had the audacity to curse her parents out in Facebook. Regardless of her age and the age allowed to work: if you are dependent on someone else's earnings from work you should at the LEAST respect them. Chores are nothing.. people who make a big deal about them are lazy spoiled ****s. And how this dad handled it was too civil; I wish he used a jackhammer. Worst case scenario in my mind would probably be a parent in this situation smashing the laptop on the brat. Probably would be the ideal thing if I ever did that to my parents, just sayin'. |
Re: Simply awesome!
Another big problem with the video is that it is being told in the parent's perspective - there is still a lot missing about the daughter.

I'm sure the FIRST time she did something like this, they most likely just talked about it. But doing it again, I think the parents did a fine job in handling the situation. It's a laptop that she did not own. Sounds like she does not appreciate anything in life. AND they have a helper in the house? Totally sounds like a hard life for her. A talk would not fix anything. It didn't the first time, so he had to do what had to be done. |
Re: Simply awesome!
You're entitled to your opinion about this, but the way he's talked in the video, it does not sound like he has actually taken the time to understand why she's feeling the way she is, and is instead using what she posted on Facebook as an entire representation of her.
"Sounds like she does not appreciate anything in life" - again, this video is being told in parent's perspective, and there could be a lot of hidden shit we don't know about concerning the daughter. I will agree she does sound a bit spoiled, however. |
Re: Simply awesome!
Saw this yesterday night..
Hilarious. |

This is her parents we are talking about here. Lest there be physical or mental abuse that are hidden behind this man's video, the daughter still did something naive and petty. Parents have done worse than this, even to things less serious of a situation. Coming from me, who was mentally and physically abused when I was young, I do not agree with what the kid has done, and that is disrespecting your parents. |
Re: Simply awesome!
I was looking forward to the dad pulling out a shotgun, "You think those bullets were bad, here's my shotgun."

Re: Simply awesome!
too, ****ing, boss

Re: Simply awesome!
laptop getting shot was awesome but i'm w/ dossar on this, bad parenting leads to destruction of their own property, if this is even considered funny it's because that guy totally could have made like $200 off that laptop and now it's not worth shit because he basically got trolled by his daughter.

Re: Simply awesome!
GOOD FIGHT. Silence the haters.
What like 2 million views in 2 days? Wowwww... Haha |
Re: Simply awesome!
Say what you want but I'm actually with the dad on this. (unlike some comments etc.)
We have so many unproductive, bratty and plain moronic people who pollute the populace nowadays, it's quite disgusting. (and this is coming from a liberal) Her attitude is basically: "Don't wanna do shit and make a big emotional rant about it." Basic Appeal to emotion (Pathos) fallacy and some of you are falling for it. Also, if I were to do something like this about my parents I don't know what the consequences would be. Learn some respect. PS: That ending albeit being a bit extreme was a nice touch. 4/5. |
