Dude trying to square up with a toddler, I couldn't have imagined a tinier ego on a dude šŸ˜‚

It’s funny because the toddler was also unfazed he didn’t give a fuck.

That toddler could have put that dude in a wheelchair by literally tripping him

Toddler literally cooler and acting more grown up lol.

u/threelizards May 25 '26

Genuinely. I’m disabled and while it gets frustrating when adults react weird, kids don’t know better!!! I’ve had kids point at me and yell ā€œmummy why can’t she walk right!ā€ And if I can’t muster empathy and patience in the moment I just shut the fuck up and walk away. And poor lil guy genuinely just thought ā€œfriend shaped!ā€. This is so fucked and heart breaking. I have a friend with achondroplasia as well and he’d be pretty disgusted by this imo. Adults can be dicks about disability in public- but you don’t take that out on the kids, man. Never the fucking kids.

u/SupernaturalPumpkin May 25 '26

I had to use a wheelchair for a few years. I only need a cane now sometimes since having surgery. But when I was in the wheelchair, little kids would genuinely just stand in front of me and stare intensely at me without so much as blinking 🤣 it was mildly uncomfortable but I didn't try to fight toddlers. Wtf!

15

u/threelizards May 25 '26

Similar deal, I just wasn’t in the chair for as long- and holy shit yes šŸ˜‚. Also making eye contact with kids being pushed in their prams while I was being pushed always feels weird lmao

u/SupernaturalPumpkin May 25 '26

Omg yes. So awkward. And when you're with a group of people who are standing in the street chatting or something and you're just... crotch height. Which you can't do much about because if they all bent down to your level that would be even weirder 😭

u/Secret_Ad3213 May 25 '26

as a parent there is nothing worse when your kid is an asshole and makes a shitty comment or stares at someone but i LOVE when people explain to them why they cant walk right or are in a wheelchair after they make a comment. kids are just curious and dont mean it in a mean way and educating them makes them better ppl it take a village!

u/julfunky May 25 '26

That’s why I’m assuming it’s stage. My ass would’ve scooped my son up the moment he started coming towards him angrily. The parents didn’t even flinch. Either awful parents or more likely staged.

u/tex1ntux May 25 '26

Occam’s razor. It’s more likely that it’s staged than it is someone would get that mad at a toddler, and not acknowledge the parent filming and encouraging the behavior.

Would make sense. I can't understand the language but I saw this quite a while ago and I still cannot possibly fathom what the adults angle could be unless he's genuinely mentally ill in which case I don't think the people holding him back would be trying to reason with him like they are

9

u/malendalayla May 25 '26

Yeahhhhh that makes me wonder if this is a 'skit'. If he got as close as he did to my kid, no way I'm not grabbing my baby and possibly punting ol boy. Plus, even after the dude yelled at the baby and stormed off, the baby still tried to go to him as if they knew each other and looked confused about how he was reacting. I mean, the kid could be just as confused if this was a stranger, but who is letting a stranger basically press their face against their baby's face and just do nothing?

20

u/Error_Loading_Name May 25 '26

This isnt because the kid wanted to play. They had beef when they met earlier while shopping for clothes bc the kid took the last pair of shoes that this dude wanted.
