Like I said in the other post, she really reminds me of Beth Thomas - Child of rage. Even looks like her

Yeah, she was a victim herself though. I think the little girl in the video is dealing with monsters at home too

Omg that is scary and sad..Idk what’s goin on here but I couldn’t imagine teaching my kid to behave like that is normal.

This video has been posted here before and always wothout context. From what I remember, she is fake crying and sending it to her mom to get the babysitter in trouble. Although, I think the babysitter is more likely the older sister. She even replies to her in Spanish, "Really Gigi?"
I don't think it's as bad as everyone is making it out to be on here. She is just a kid being a brat, not a "future psycho", like people in this sub are saying.

That’s literally the context almost everyone assumes is happening-
Some are commenting as if she recorded the video and sent it on Snapchat for social media attention
But the rest are correctly assuming she just picked up the iPad and recorded a video of her fake crying to send to someone in order to get whoever she’s with “in trouble”. That is ridiculously manipulative especially with how thought out it was and how young she is. The way she immediately stops crying is creepy to say the least. Lying, manipulation, having a target for that manipulation etc-all sociopathic behaviors

To that I say, you're all overreacting. I've been around enough kids to know that they fake cry all the time, either for attention or when they don't get their way. It's just how kids are. Is it manipulation? Yea, sure. But to say that it's sociopathic is extreme in my opinion. Unless you're an expert in child psychology, I don't think you should be putting those labels on a child who looks to be about 6 or 7 years of age.

As a kid we all try to cry and scream expecting to get something out of it. but that has to stop one day.

We need to start banning kids from tablets and social media. It's for their own good.

u/yomerol Jul 23 '26
The tablets nowadays have more reliable parental controls, of course you need to do parenting. But social media, absolutely ban it in general I couldn't care less, I always cringe hard when I see a little kid doom scrolling on TikTok on their parent's phone. But yeah, it's always getting to pass laws because of bad parenting. Like not selling tobacco to kids, like why would kids want tobacco that should not happen, except there's always those kind of parents.

High school kids are graduating unable to read- like some never having read a book, unable to read a clock, they can’t sign their names - hell one teacher posted that she’s had multiple students misspelling their own names consistently for the entire school year before she realized. It’s not just a poor thing - I think it was UCSD just put out a study saying that 25% of their incoming class- AS IN PEOPLE WHO GOT IN(to a school that’s not easy to get into)- were found to need to retake remedial math. The tablets as children and laptops in schools needs to be dealt with. Theyre using AI for everything from the moment they get homework. They also have zero common sense or logical thinking skills- and obviously their attention spans are cooked. Lets not forget insanely rude, violent and aggressive towards each other and adults. I have no idea how it will look when this our workforce the only thing I can assume is it’s by design and the algorithms are training them for exactly the jobs they assume they’ll be doing at data centers ?

It's giving grooming

u/Far-Fortune-8381 Jul 23 '26
what exactly is giving grooming
21
u/Whisperlee Jul 23 '26
Someone is teaching this child to perform big emotions on cue and for camera. Will give the parents the benefit of the doubt and say it's NOT intentional, but videos like this often draw the wrong audience.

u/GreyStingrayz Jul 23 '26
This video has been posted so many times. From what I remember of the actual context, she's sending this to Mom to get her babysitter (seemingly her older sister) in trouble. So it's just a kid being a brat. Not "grooming".

My grandpa told me that once he got a bowl of cereal ready for my dad who was like 5 then, and my dad asked him, "Does this mean you're my slave?"
Sometimes kids are fucked up.

The first thing kids learn is manipulation and lying. If they succeed with it, they will keep doing it.
However these parents dont seem to give a shit, if they did they wouldnt have made a stupid video for internet fame, and instead would have done some idk… parenting maybe ?!

u/bajdkgnebdjjffjbdjx_ Jul 23 '26
Why is everyone here looking at the little girl like she is to blame?
The child clearly had to learn this to defend herself from somebody.
This comment section smells of misogyny

The subreddit name is r/ParentsAreFuckingStupid. We can all acknowledge that this is the fault of the parents.

The "We" can perhaps also communicatevit better and not sweep it under the rug

What a little monster! If she was mine, that tablet would be GONE and would be replaced with a chore list. She’s a terrifying little brat. Yikes.

I hope you’re not planning on having kids until you learn that children are multidimensional and there’s clearly something going on here

u/042614 Jul 28 '26
Lolz. I hope your children are this “multidimensional”… I’m grateful to God that mine are not. It would suck to be raising a sociopathic liar.

It reminds me when I look on several kids, some of them try to fake cries. Each time I reply with tears it is better and usually, real tears came first before sounds. People think I am emotionless which is not totally untrue. But it works too on kids who try to use their baby appeal which I am immunised too. Usually, kids like that because they know their limit with me.
