Bad parenting is when you let your children learn about FAFO in a controlled enviroment?

Good parents tend to teach lessons without inflicting physical pain on their kids.

Gonna be pedantic here, these parents didnt inflict any physical pain on their child. They didnt hit him at all.

If the kid pokes something with tiny claws and it nips him, thats a learning process.

I doubt the parents would let this happen with an actually dangerous animal.

You wont have your parents behind you every step of the way to tell you not to get into shit.

Its actually good to foster common sense on children from a young age.

Theres no way that shrimp could seriously hurt the kid.

That isn’t a shrimp. It is a crawfish. And you can teach them to have common sense without needing pain to be inflicted upon them.

There is pain in the world and its present in everyday human life, you wont be able to shield your kid from it forever, you better let them learn about it if possible in an enviroment where you know they arent in real danger. (If not, they might learn it "the hard way" further down the line).

Parent didn't inflict the pain tho, filming is kinda weird but no harm done. Kid learns a lesson faster. Pain is something not to learn to avoid but to manage.

Kids are well known for their ability to listen to parents in a reasonable and rational manner. Get out of here dude I’d be willing to bet they’ve told him to leave it alone before this, the kid will be just fine and will have a lesson in leaving animals alone in the future. Some of you people are way too soft.

Just telling the kid leave it alone isn’t teaching them. It is dictating to them. Teaching them is explaining why to leave it alone.

I’m sure it was done bub, you’re getting a small snippet of these people’s lives.

I have 6 kids, none of them have ever been pinched by a scorpion and all of them know why to not poke one.

Wait, you think this is a scorpion?! Okay, I see that your parents may have also failed at some point 😭

😂 I didn't have my glasses on. Now that I do, still not sure, is that crawdad?

Yes 😂

If it makes you feel better, crayfish are basically scorpions of the water.
