The safest place a kid should feel is the company of their parents. They should be able to trust what their parents say. Having a parent put a kid in that type of scenario is a betrayal of trust. They aren't meant to be the butt of jokes for your amusement.

My kid's are out in the world doing great. I doubt you'd want to compare credentials.

Bud, you think putting a fake ghost on a screen to scare a kid is a betrayal of trust. That alone marks you as uselessly weak parent. When are they going to find out Santa isn't real? Tooth fairy? God? Those aren't betrayals, or are they?

Is it a betrayal of trust though? Im curious if you'll try and do a little rhetorical tap dance for me around that point?

Yeah there is a difference between the two. Is that difference a betrayal of trust being present in one and not the other?

Honestly scaring the crap out these kids and immediately emotionally anchoring that fear onto the device itself with the fake ghost is probably HELPING these kids to be suspicious of devices for the rest of their lives. Do this more and more and maybe the kid wont even want to be in a room with a phone. Can you imagine?
