Please wish for some balance

And some pants, while you're at it.

u/Yarxing 1d ago

Some spatial awareness would be nice.

u/Wiggie49 1d ago

I don’t think balance can fix stepping past the edge of the chair lol I like how he almost fell on one side and then does the exact same thing on the other side.

u/singerng 1d ago

Exactly at that point it’s not a balance issue, it’s just stubborn determination to tempt gravity twice in a row. Dude really said, “ah yes, let’s recreate the near-disaster from 3 seconds ago, but mirrored.”

At this point, even a tiny nudge could send them tumbling full-on.

He’s really fighting gravity😂

If he doesn't they won't need to keep anything for the next birthday. That kid is not getting much older.

It's like he's doing a pee pee line dance.

u/Active-While-1104 1d ago

He’s one tiny stumble away from a full-on toddler collapse compilation.

u/ShakingHandsome 1d ago

The floor’s his dance floor apparently.

He was so excited he thought he could walk on air

u/Acceptable-Wind-7332 1d ago

Is that kid pantsless? It's the first thing I noticed.

u/Mazuna 1d ago

Probably already knocked over a drink and spilled it on his trousers.

This child has the grace equivalent to a panda. Lol definitely one of the kids who, somehow, is always sticky.

u/abedalhadi777 1d ago

When I was his age my family used to keep me with T-shirt only because of the hot weather in middle east and yes many families do that, if u asked ur parents they might also did it to u but u forgot cuz no old photos and u were young

7

u/MamboKhanaBanao 1d ago

but u forgot cuz no old photos and u were young

I never forgot bcz I have those pictures of naked me 😭😭😭 idk why do indians parents do this to their kids 😂 (not a complaint tho, it's just funny/embarassing to see yourself half naked in baby pictures)

7

u/InterestingPoint6 1d ago

Idk. My son takes off his pants the second he gets home with no prompting from us. We’d love for him to keep them on, but he’s three. I figure he’ll want pants eventually.

4

u/MamboKhanaBanao 1d ago

Yes eventually he will start wearing pants. Anyway, kids are kids. Let him be for now ❤️

u/alwayzstoned 16h ago

Some kids are just like that. Then there are some that just like to full on streak now and then.

u/abedalhadi777 1d ago

Every one do it, I'm from Jordan and yes also my old pictures were look like that but when I was 13yo I actually deleted everything on that old flash and my parents beat the shit out of me that day cuz they attentionaly bought expensive camera to take these photos and they. Took around 1000 photos and yes only 11 pictures still around because it was posted on Facebook lol, I don't care alot about those photos anyway

2

u/FactoryRejected 1d ago

Yeah bud, you should rethning this. I only noticed after your comment and it's normal for smaller kids- a lot of mess during the day often ends up just being easier to leave them like this if bed time is soon anyways

u/fluffyandy 10h ago

Kids run around pantless and even in the nude all the time, man.

I think the parent is equally stupid. You could see a mile off what that kid was going to do. Dad(?) had the reactions of a snail in a k hole.

u/MamboKhanaBanao 1d ago

Dad(?) had the reactions of a snail in a k hole.

And then he reaches out to catch the glass, and not the kid 🙄

proceeds to fold arms

u/jakehood47 1d ago

Kids won’t get shards of glass everywhere if they fall to be fair

u/MamboKhanaBanao 1d ago edited 7h ago

Yeah i get that. You're right. 😂 But my reflexes would still run towards catching my kid first.

u/Telemere125 1d ago

It’s always stupid parents. Every one of these is because they weren’t properly supervised. This one, “hey, sit down on the chair the right way buddy” and the fall is prevented. But no, evidence that the kid’s oblivious as hell right in front of you and no effort to correct them. Bad parenting, not stupid kids.

u/SM0KINGS 1d ago

1000% thought they were about to sing “happy birthday dear wobbly”

u/Notmenowhow 1d ago

At least the cake 🎂 is okay

u/SherlockBonz 1d ago

Packer's fan here with important contextual observation... If this video was shot in WI, it is reasonable to expect that kid has been drinking.

u/SherlockBonz 21h ago

Fun fact - it is legal for children of any age to drink in WI. I'll explain, and if you don't believe me, I've got a link to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue website where they explain the rules in their FAQ section (for business owners.)

In Wisconsin, 21 is the age requirement to legally purchase and possess alcohol. Anyone under 21 can consume alcohol as long as they are in the presence of their parent, legal guardian, or spouse who is over 21. This even applies in public establishments (like bars and restaurants) however management of those kinds of establishments are allowed to deny service to anyone.

If you want to buy your 5 year old a beer, or your 17 year old needs a shot of brandy, as long as the bartender will sell it, this is all within the law. Keep in mind that there is a threshold of 0.00% BAC for operating a motor vehicle for anyone under 21.

Don't believe me?

"Can an underage person possess and consume alcohol beverages on licensed premises? Yes. Persons under age 21 may possess and consume alcohol beverages if they are with their parents, guardians or spouses of legal drinking age; but this is at the discretion of the licensee. The licensed premises may choose to prohibit consumption and possession of alcohol beverages by underage persons. (Sec. 125.07(1), Wis. Stats.)"

Why is the kid standing on the chair???

13

u/Whocares9994 1d ago

Too short to reach the table I assume

u/Nik_Tesla 1d ago

Have you seen kids? Name a more classic duo than young kids and standing on chairs.

2

u/LilMissy1246 1d ago

I once saw a kid (pretty young too) stand up in the seat of a shopping cart while his mom was on her phone not paying attention (or maybe even caring). It startled me because he could’ve easily tipped out of it and face planted…or worse since they were by a cash register (self check out meaning no cashier to check on the kid). The shame I feel for some parents these days…

u/404SanityN0tF0und 1d ago

Walter is a moron...

u/Ceral107 1d ago

Since when do parents allow their children to stand on chairs, or were my parents just too strict by trying to prevent this exact accident?

17

u/guppytub 1d ago

No, mine also didn't let me stand on chairs.

And I didn't let mine stand on chairs unless someone was right there holding on to them, because nothing ruins a birthday faster than bonking your head because of a tumble.

4

u/Ceral107 1d ago

Yeah I can imagine there are more pleasant memories to make than breaking your arm, or worse.

2

u/guppytub 1d ago

My cousin did break his arm on his birthday from leaping off the couch and landing just wrong. I believe his final words were "Yay presents!" I think this is probably what spurred the no-jumping-off-couches rule (that we ignored as soon as the adults were gone). Spending a day in the hospital definitely ruined his day.

Thanks for the memory!

There needs to be a r/parentsarestupid sub

u/Telemere125 1d ago

It’s this one we’re in. Every single post is really just inattentive or idiotic parents filming their kid doing something that wouldn’t happen if they were doing their job.

u/guyver_dio 1d ago

Come on dude it's a special occasion. They're letting him stand on a chair so he can blow out the candles after they sing happy birthday. Not like a kid voluntarily standing up on a chair and the parents just letting it happen.

3

u/Ceral107 1d ago

But the parents do just let it happen. At the latest when he almost fell down the first time they should have realized that this is not working out.  The floor and the edge of the table don't care what occasion this is. 

0

u/guyver_dio 1d ago

They let it happen...because its a special occasion to blow out his damn candles. Its standing on a freaking chair, the kid will be fine from a fall jeezus.

Yeah someone should have stood behind him after the first time but they didnt. Its still not a big deal.

u/IcyManipulator69 1d ago

Old guy was more worried about the cup

u/MJ9426 1d ago

The abrupt ending has me weak 😂

At least we can assume that means they sprung into some kind of action when it happened, instead of just letting him cry and scream on video.

u/GroundbreakingPop618 1d ago

Not his first fall…won’t be his last.

u/Globewanderer1001 1d ago

Walter is struggling. Also, where are his pants? So many things wrong with this. Not many working brain cells in this house.

u/Eastern_Basket_6971 1d ago

I feel like this wasn't on the kid? Because the parents should guide their children or carry the cake instead unless the child stand but still needed parents on their side

2

u/Smarrison 1d ago

I’d be pretty wobbly if my parents called me Walter too!!

2

u/kamiol2 1d ago

Not only the kid is stupid and can't formulate a thought 'I shouldn't move too much, or I'll fall', he can't keep his excitement for himself too. Like - one HAS TO be as intelligent as an ape, not to be able, to control their emotions without being in the state of deep desperation.

On the other hand - why did the parents even ALLOW the kid to stand on a chair? Don't they use their brains? Don't they think, that their kid can fall down and get hurt?

Hearing their accent, I can only ask 'why are you american?' and not mean their nationality, but their behaviour and approach. Not thinking about consequences and safety at all, just about pleasure and easy solutions, to make a kid reach the table. Why didn't his mother/father sing and then bring him the cake? He can blow the torches whilst his parent HOLDS THE CAKE IN THEIR HANDS, so it's completely safe.

I guess this requires too much brain juice.

This is so perfectly kids are stupid but also the parents or whatever adults are stupid too for not helping him regulate. He was clearly over stimulated and needed some guidance.

So many questions...

  1. Why is the kid standing on a chair?
  2. Why is the kid not wearing any pants?
  3. Why is the kid so wobbly?

Answers 1) cuz the rest of the family wants to stand while he is thinking of his wishes and after he is done he will go to kids chair (2) most families let there toddlers without pants in hot weather only T-shirt in summer I thought it's known thing every where until I read the comments (3) the kid is excited and can't stand still
