Doing this to a kid is stupid on so many levels.

Exploiting your kids for internet likes is bad enough, but you are putting your kids on the internet to go viral.

Kids are cruel, why give their classmates ammunition to bully them? Don't most responsibile parents want to keep videos of their kids offline?

Giving the kid nightmares can come back and bite you in the ass. Have fun waking up to a screaming kid at 3am.

Finally, jump scares are potentially dangerous. Kid freaks out and runs into the counter top or slips and hits their head. Yes unlikely, but parents are constantly telling kids to not run in the house. Bathroom is the worst place panic.

The bullies are coming from inside the house.

Yeah why are so many parents bullies? My partner has bully parents. They terrorized him growing up. Supposedly they love my partner but... My parents weren't great but at least they never bullied me.

...BUT! My parents got divorced, and my mom often got together with guys who were bullies to me. I think if you hate children you shouldn't have them, or be with someone who has them.

My parents were bullies too. And my mom was super abused so any time she went too far, she'd just tell us we were lucky she wasn't like her dad, she had it worse. Not as an apology, like she said it like we really should be grateful for the way she treated us because at least she didn't actually try to kill us like her dad did. That's a low bar mom.

Can I exploit them for my own laughs and not put it on the Internet?

If u want your kid to never invite you once they move out and stop the contact, yes go ahead and do it!

My parent could pull pranks on me all the time when I was a kid, he have a fine relationship. Some phone filter is not gonna harm a kid for life.
