There's a whole process you have to film the video, edit it and then post. If you are not disgusted by your behavior at some point in this whole process you are a bad parent
@@Birgitte1984 depends on the child and its age. I didn't have a tablet until the age of 8 and went to school with a nokia phone until like 6th grade and I grew up pretty fine. In my opinion, a child should NOT have a smartphone or tablet or anything like that until they at least start going to school and need one to communicate with their parents
Fortunately the other major parenting trend is gentle parenting. You respect the kids as independent humans and don't use corporal punishment but you also have firm boundaries. It's basically authortative parenting but you don't slap your kids to make them follow the rules and instead you explain why it's important at age appropriate stages.
@@tiryaclearsong421 I completely agree with this! Your kids should never fear you or fear coming to you. But your kids should know right from wrong and consequences.
as someone who was admittedly raised semi-spoiled, i HATE myself so much because of the way i was raised, even if it wasnt my fault. they're just raising their children to be either a spoiled brat or mourning over their childhood for something they never intended! god i absolutely just DESPISE parents like these.
Same but at least we 4 knew some discipline. I have gotten some nice things, hell I got beats headphones for christmas(and some other REALLY GOOD GIFTS like an eye cover and toothpaste, that’s not sarcastic. I need that stuff). I don’t want to be a monster or a spoiled brat, I want to be someone who uses their privilege for good
Don't you also raise your kids a little bit forceful, Heisenberg? I mean, you forced Walt Jr. to drink when he can't handle no more, and then you bring Jolly to go away with you while having a climax confrontation with your wife
When I was a kid, I loved reading, talking to people, and learning about things. After high school: • I dread reading • I hate being around people, especially people I don't know • I only like learning about things I'm interested in or are relevant to the situation I'm currently in
Those parents will never get rid of this child. The older he gets the worse he will be. He will alienate everyone connected to them and berate them their whole life.
Oh, they'll get rid of him alright. When he's 22 and his entitlement leads him to killing a girl because she said no to his advances and he's never been told no in his life lmfao. These parents and people who think like them are fucking lunatics
That's what I thought! Do you know how many times the real world says "no"? You basically have to apply to dozens of jobs before you get your first "yes". That kid will hear "no" after applying to the job he wants and then he'll just give up and live in his parents' basement. Then the parents will be confused why their kid has no motivation or aspirations.
@@bluetiger2468 You know its hilarious hearing people like you being stupid but also pisses me off people can be so stupid knowing all of you are just the average American first 80% of houses in the world don't even have basements second if hes really "spoiled" He won't take no basement. third. Where on earth do you live in America that everyone is so stupid? If he is qualified better than everyone else that applied, he will either get the job or know damn well the people who refused him are the stupid ones and just go try again until he meets someone whos able to get over their own ego and hire him to make their company better
@@NULLHybrid because there is actual children who have been abused. So to claim this is abuse is a bit wrong. Example: i was abused as a kid by a family member. I wish my abuse was " getting too much sweats and been able to stay up late". Instead it was violent, sexual and mental abuse. I think you guys mean they are bad parents?
I would genuinely watch a 40 minute video of Pegasus talking about healthy eating. Like how to get started, where to find healthy food in our fallen society, etc. Watching the video more, I think an 80 minute video of Pegasus giving life advice is warranted. I wanna see what he has to say on the topic of many people's lives.

What made me lose hope is that there's actual good people who would wants to take the role to be an actual parent. But for some reason couldn't have a child to begin with, either because of biologically, financially, and/or societal reasons. Then you have these parents that can pop out children like it's nothing, and treats having children like a game, a paycheck generator, and/or just can't be bothered do the bare minimum.
It always makes me sad when I see a kid in public carrying around a big kiddie iPad. Like they’re following around their parents while totally engrossed in the screen and not paying attention to anything else. I grew up on the cusp of all this tech becoming popular, so I had things like that but I was never allowed to bring it around in public because a) I might lose it and b) not paying attention to your surroundings is very dangerous as a kid. It’s just sad how reliant on screen time parents are these days to “keep the kids quiet” and such
@@Juzokinnie Imagine trying to act like thats a problem if my kid already knows about many adult things I will teach him how to be an adult so when hes 18 hes smarter than half of you all
alright listen people sometimes in this situation should stay in their lane like we can just ignore kids on their ipads we can't ignore child spoiling though
I have an Amazon tablet and I'm unable to bring it around with me, why do parents get their kids ipads and let them take it EVERYWHERE?? I mean sometimes I can be in my own little world when outside but I'm always with my dad
Just beware of the "contact napping" because when my little cousin was a baby it was very difficult to put her to sleep so we always had to lull her in our hands for a long time but didn't dare leave her in her crib afterwards as to not wake her up...and then she got way too used to it so whoever was putting her to sleep had to literally hold her in their hands for hours upon hours, not just for the afternoon nap but also during the night as well. So be really mindful with this, it was beyond exhausting to be stuck with a baby in your arms for many hours every single day and being unable to do anything else, basically just wasting time if I have to be honest. My point is, it shouldn't turn into a bad and unhealthy habit.
@@BlackLivesMatter1414 we'd have done it if it worked that way. I'm pretty sure me and my cousin's parents know better what she's like. So if I say it was impossible in her case, then it REALLY was impossible. Her baby years were very difficult on all of us, she was very problematic, not by her choice. Also in response to what you replied to Wolfiechrm, it is not as unlikely as you may think. We're so much bigger and heavier than them, we could easily push them, hit them, kick them, even potentially roll over on top of them and suffocate them with our weight...it could happen and I'm pretty sure it has happened, even if on rare occasions. I don't have any exact numbers at hand, of course. Some people (like my dad for example) are very heavy sleepers and I assure you they will not feel anything of what they're doing whilst asleep. I've pushed him and stuff trying to wake him up but he does not respond at all, it's not an easy task to awaken him.
My parents found the solution for me: take a huge plush and craddle them in it. They'll think it's big enough to be their parent. Either that or I as just really stupid.
Thank you for the health talks in this video as someone who isn't doing mentally well and having doctors not treat me well because of personal reasons has made eating healthy extremely hard for me. Hearing another normal person talk about this stuff is very motivating I've been trying to make bento boxes recently and I think I'll go make one after this video! Also I totally agree on the homeschool thing also you can sign up for a proper online school too! where kids do lessons just online and at home personally for me it's been very beneficial and I've been getting great grades because I can study and do work at my own pace (obviously still with due dates) it also helps kids learn how to manage their time responsibly
Idk if this helps, but Yami Mart online is great for Japanese and Asian food stuff. They sell instant miso soup for cheap in packets and you just add hot water. Miso is fermented soybean, fermented things like kimchi or miso are really good for your gut. They have a lot of things for bento boxes because of the nature of their Asian website. Add more color, like red cabbage or carrots or even a yellow bell pepper on top of like a salad or tacos or something easy. You’d be amazed at how much more cheerful you feel when you eat more color, more fresh onions and more natural sugar (apples, kiwi, etc.) instead of refined granulated sugar. It doesn’t cure you, but it does help a lot. Keep going, food can be legit therapy and I don’t know you but I’m rooting for you ❤️
I was the kid who loved veggies😂. My mom told me I never gave my parents a hard time when it came to that. She even said my favorite vegetable to eat was broccoli. I even enjoyed salads. That’s WILD to me because I believed all kids don’t like veggies.
I have a theory that part of it is how it's cooked. Correctly cooked broccoli with melted monterey jack and basil is delicious. The overcooked institutional unseasoned nuclear sludge that poses as 'broccoli' that I remember seeing all over the place... That isn't right and it's got no nutrition because it's been incinerated away in 400f water.
Yeah I never understood that either My mom would microwave broccoli with a slice of American cheese on top I thought that was some gourmet shit at 4 😂 Just Mac and cheese except no Mac all BROCC
I liked veggies too as long as they were mixed in with stuff. They weren't my favorite things but I didn't have much of a problem eating them. I loved carrots for a little while. What I really loved was fruit, and I loved it so much that my parents would sometimes have to tell me not to eat the fruit that was going into stuff because I'd eat the entire thing in 1 sitting the same day they bought it.
@@manictigerThat makes a lot of sense, when I was little I loved vegetables, still do. But if it wasn’t steamed and it was like sludge and really watery, I didn’t like it. I’m very sensitive to food textures so my personal experience could be different.
Probably because she actually knows how to cook if you can actually cook vegetables any kid will like it but if you just throw it in a pot for an hour of course no ones eating it it will be tasteless and have the consistency of mud
It won’t save the parents from a rebellious stage. When the parents inevitably decide to set boundaries when their child grows up, the rebellious stage is going to be even worse than normal because they’re going to be so used to getting whatever they want that they WONT ever listen anyway because in their head they can always get away with it. Trust me this is how my little cousin was raised and his mom can no longer try and set boundaries because he won’t listen anyway
The rebellious stage of adolescence is not solely dependent on how a child is raised. While I may not be entirely correct, evolutionary psychology suggests that teenagers, in general, exhibit similar behaviour in terms of not listening to their parents. Additionally, if a teenager fails to become independent and think for themselves, it can pose a more significant problem. All teenagers should have the ability to think and make decisions of themselves.
@@BlackLivesMatter1414 If you deem that as 'making fun of peoples beliefs' you are the one who is a theory, since i cant understand how a person who would reject science and is still alive. im sure you have been to the hospital atleast twice in ur life
I think my 3 year old niece will be just fine. She has screen time that’s not timed based on just time but based on just activities she used her brain that day. The toddler is NOT made aware of this screen time is just something she gets as a reward. She is also taught empathy well. She cried because I had a cold such a sweetie. She has her tantrums but they are normally pretty short and 80% of time it’s because she’s tired. I love my niece and my sister and brother in law are doing an absolute phenomenal job at raising her.
The nutella story is me with Soda. My parents let me have soda every single day without fail. I drank so much god damn mountain dew I'm probably infertile. So when I was around 22 I finally decided "enoughs enough" and I started drinking Iced Tea instead at the time, Significantly less horrible for you btw, even if still bad. Even tho I havent went on a true 0 sugar diet, if I drink soda nowadays, ESPECIALLY mountain dew, it makes me feel like I wanna puke, its vile, horrible and disgusting tasting. I can still drink vanilla coke, but my body reacts with hiccupping when I drink soda now. So I only have a vanilla coke once every.... few months if that? lmao. But on the flipside our "adaptation" I was in a broke period and I ate flaming hot mac and cheese for like 6 months straight with those little grocery store cordon bleu things. Was like $3.89 for my dinner for the day. I did that for SIX MONTHS STRAIGHT without fail, or hating it. And again if I eat boxed mac and cheese now? repulsive, no idea why I even liked it to begin with.
My SIL did the same thing to her daughter. No specific bedtime, junkfood, and unlimited screen time. Never punished or reprimanded for her brattiness. The result: this little girl prematurely lost all her teeth, tons of cavities on her adult teeth too. She has stomach problems and lets not forget that she still wears pull-ups because she was never properly potty trained and she just turned 10 years old. My FIL told her daughter you're "mother of the year" LOL.
WEAK junkfood doesn't give anyone cavities when I was a kid I barely ever even remembered to brush my teeth I still ain't got one cavity and thats called not parenting screen time and bedtime have nothing to do with any of that
OH MY GOD 10?! That poor girl is at that age where kids REALLY start noticing the differences in eachother, she is going to be bullied into oblivion the poor thing.
@dr.manhattan4537 I am so sorry to hear that, I hope as she grows she realizes her situation isn't normal and she finds the strength to improve and get away from people who encouraged her issues.
I'm convinced any kid born after 2017 isn't going to end up well. Can you guys please stop saying "thank god I was born in" it's almost as annoying as the kids born after 2017.
My parents kinda treated me like this growing up, I was a single child and had a stay at home dad and both would always let me do whatever I wanted and got me whatever I wanted otherwise I would cry and wine about it until I did. I got seriously addicted to gaming and spending money on games and when they tried to take me out to do sports when I was no more than 9, I simply said “no I don’t want to” and they were ok with it. But at 13 I was almost 200lbs and my mom made my favorite dish everyday, literally just fried rice no veggies, despite the fact I was beyond obese and struggling with an addiction that severely affected my grades as I was a barely pass the class student with no friends in my private school because of my horrible social skills I never developed because I was so isolated from the world. When I came to my senses and started working out more and eating more healthy, I asked my parents why they never made me do anything at all my entire life and they always got offended when I’d ask. I hope this family doesn’t end up like mine, no kid deserves the problems I still struggle with and the parents need to wake tf up.
There is no excuse for those dads. My dad works in a different state for the entire week and he only gets to stay with me and my mom for the weekends and holidays but he still remembers that kind of stuff because he loves me and is a good parent.
I couldnt agree less though, question arises on what kind of phone should be given then, since if you give a button phone to the child im sure theyll encounter bullying for it, then again getting a smartphone with parental locks will just make the child despise you for restricting them. Quite conflicting with how to approach it.
@@unbothered9646 I lived until college with a 9 keytone phone, so they better tough it out. If I can survive until 19 without a smart phone, so can a child.
@@sarielgrace you know what thats completely fair, i also wasnt the lucky one to get the first smartphones coming out and im quite glad about it. i was just thinking based on how society is now than it was before, astounding to see small children being on a phone the size of their head 🤭
Your nutrition rant is actually like, very helpful when it comes to getting started for me. I’m only 20, but imma cut all the absolute garbage outta my life. At least attempt to. Honestly, thanks for unintentionally motivating me lol
I feel like this is so true and I recently turned 13, so it basically means I am in this new generation. This generation is so bad that Gen z seems like it is 100 times better. Every day when I go to school there are kids like filming toktoks in the bathroom. I swear my iq has gone down at least 50 by going to the bathroom at school 💀
Man I went behind curtains of a room in my school where there are ping pong tables and you can go play there during lunch time, and guess what I found behind the curtains? I found 2 girls that looked like they were 12 and a girl that looked like she was 13 and they were filming a tiktok
Also just to make you lose hope in humanity, I saw a girl smoking a pack of cigarettes in front of the entrance of 7th-8th graders, and she looked like she was 12 that was really disappointing and disturbing
To touch on the home schooling. I highly agree. My kid has had a horrible time at school and the teachers and principals don’t care about what’s going on. Ever since I had my kid start home schooling he’s been able to enjoy being a kid without being bullied and he’s learning a lot faster and easier. It’s crazy how much bullying gets looked over
How to raise a kid 1 limited screen time only get devices when 11-13 2 give good food 3 Show them manners 4 letting them know what's right and wrong 5 make them do chores for money 1$ for room 2$ for 2 room 3 for toilets and 2 room 5-10 for hole house 6 Make them study and actually help them 7 if they started a fight its my kid fault and my responsibility (and the other kid) 8 money 8-13 5$ a week 14-17 20 a month 18 try to get a job and ill pay you money for working hard 10$ if they can't spend it right then no more money for 3 months 9. Make sure they feel okay and ask about school 10. Teaching them the basics at a very young age! 11. Don't give them everything they want Tell me if you wanna add something ❤️
Personally I think the kid shouldn't have a device until at minimum 9 years old, ideally around 10 or 11 years old. I disagree with screen time limit unless it's a punishment, though I do think the parents need to make their kid partake in other activities throughout the day.
Always check up on how your kid is feeling. One of the major reasons between the gap between the kid and the parent are lack of communication between the family.
I wish more people could tell the difference between treating your child like a person but being able to set down boundaries (aka, not letting the child be a brat) and just spoiling them and letting them do whatever they want. I wish we were all able to agree more on balancing how to discipline your child without having to hit them to make them into a decent being because two complete opposite sides of the spectrum is child abuse and will mess up your child in some way, like it or not.
My cousin (who’s older than me) had a phone since he was a little 3’0 boy and while I was growing up, he would talk less and less. I’m 17 now and for the past 5 years, he has not said a SINGLE word, he always has one earbud in, phone out and whenever anyone asks him anything, he just shrugs. Thank god my parents have raised me so well.
I was talking with a preschool teacher recently, and she told me about how she has multiple kids th a throw tempertantrums as soon as the ipads/cell phones are taken.
It’s scary. Kids shouldn’t be exposed to social media especially that young. It’s like a constant sugar high and once they come off it they act out from withdrawal. It’s creating a generation of addicts for social media.
ignoring the gross child neglect, you look great! I haven't watched anything from you in about a year and I can tell that you've been going to the gym. It's interesting to see how much you've changed just physically, regarding your diet and body. Keep up the great work megasus
Man, you are GoaTed. You removed your addiction of sugary and salty things, I absolutely respect this. The only thing I did was basically remove most of sugars from my diet, the only sugar I get is in actual dishes, dark chocolate (I rarely have it) and beer (because I'm a beer person). I really appreciate you on informing your viewers about your food journey and what things are unhealthy. I know I'm in no way a role model for that, but I make compromises on certain things at least.
DUDE! You are so knowledgeable about how food and the body works. Thank you for sharing your experiences so that maybe others can follow a similar path to good health. ❤😊
It's terrible to never say "no" to your kid. Those kids eventually grow up, entered the real world, and then they repeatedly hear "no" for the first time. Two things can come from this, either they resent the world, become angry at whoever says no to them. Or they give up. The first job they apply to says no, so then they just give up and live in their parents basement.
Definitely keep children off TV/Ipad and other mindless timewasters. My nephew became far more articulate and less whiny once those were cut down to specific times. They literally rot your brain.
I was one of the few kids who grew up liking vegetables day 1 and thats only because i was in poverty so actually feeling healthy was a luxury. Just food was all I got most of the time and I felt terrible
Natural peanut butter is my favorite. I’ve never liked jiff or skippy. The texture of natural is just so much better. I love to hear that you’re doing your research on making healthier choices.
I realize this likely isn't what's going on here, but approaching parents and asking personal questions to prove which of them knows more about their kids is a sneaky way to collect personal info on the kids that can be used for identity theft or, in the least, get their social media hacked.
It still would be very hard to guess the password for the child's social media. Also identity theft is impossible because children can't legally own credit cards
@@azaria5419 but your parents can take loans out in your name and credit cards before you turn 18 There are people out there who are financially ruined before they even become an adult
my siblings don’t have restricted time limits for their devices but we do of course make sure we know what they are doing and watching online (4 and 6) and don’t have many limits for what they are allowed to eat, but what really helps is that we encourage them to eat healthier options, and encourage them to play off screen and learn new things, even though one of them is autistic and struggles a bit more, both of them are actually more advanced in their classes for the kids their age i grew up with many restrictions and that really affected how i acted towards many things it’s important to allow your child to make decisions on their own and if they do have a harder time making good choices for their health (like only eating candy) then it’s okay to step in, that’s what parents jobs are for example we will make sure they always brush their teeth, but we do it in a fun way for them, not making it feel like a boring chore but making sure they understand why it’s important my sister thinks it’s a really good “prank” when she tells us she will brush her teeth right after her show but she actually gets up to surprise us by brushing her teeth right away and she loves when we tell her how good her teeth look after i find allowing the kids to have a balance of freedom and healthy encouragement has really helped them to learn more and to expand what they are capable of with still making sure that you are able to still parent them correctly and be able to make sure they know right from wrong some kids and families function a lot better with different types of parenting obviously, but this is something that works very well for my household
Can confirm that this brand of parenting has many negative results for the child when they grow up. I know someone for example who was raised like this and now has impulse control issues, intense anxiety and difficulty making decisions for themselves because of home life vs outside reality was overwhelmingly different to the point that they needed to ask literally all of their friends, family members and partner about which car they should get and could not relax nor pick a replacement car until someone told this person what to do with confidence for them, it made them feel isolated throughout their childhood and teen years from their peers, which lead to long term depression, it made this person impatient, often unintentionally rude because they were allowed to do what they want when they want outside of brief guidelines (like eat dinner with the family, etc).
Been a full time Dad for the majority of my son's life. It's not easy to discipline, but it only gets worse when you set their reality to being a prince or princess. Spoil them with love and a firm hand, let them make mistakes when they won't listen, and they will thank you later.
Same. Parents have to work every second of the day, so I was essentially raised with channels like PopularMMOs and GamingWithJen, and over time, I came across many UA-camrs that essentially raised me over time.
Me too, I learned a lot of morals and lessons from the internet, of which I otherwise should have from my parents. I live with only one parent and she works all the time so the internet has been such a great help. I'm glad I'm smart enough for this to be an option too. Other kids can be swayed on the wrong path.
Just wanna put out there, i liked my veggies as a kid. Would i choose them over ice cream or candy? No. But i would absolutely eat my veggies. I especially liked broccoli. But its still inportant to have kids try foods before they say they dont like it.
Eh, I've got pretty high standards when it comes to sweets (not that my budget allows much of a choice though) so unless it's a very specific type of chocolate, nah, I'd take spinach any day.
Rule in my house is that once a kid can properly use a fork and spoon, they are only given what's made. They dont have to eat it, but they won't get anything else. Whatever you didn't eat would be your snack. Mom was really great about cooking what we liked (and was healtht) and portioning everything correctly. That rule existed to make sure we didn't become picky and unhealthy. As a kid I really enjoyed greenbeans, broccoli, corn, spinach, ect but only because when I was younger and 'learning to eat' my parents didn't cave. It also probably helps they kept me FAR FAR away from sweets of any kind and I wasn't allowed to dictate when and if I drank soda until I was a teenager. As an adult my cravings happen, but 99% of the time I find fast food and sugary things a bit... much. I struggle to finish a can of soda before it goes warm.
As someone that was addicted to soda, yes.. it does ruin your teeth and drastically lowers the health of your gums. You can brush all you want before and after.. but, acid is acid. Took 2 years of dental work to get my mouth back to optimal health. Now I very much appreciate my new teeth, especially since they look identical to my old ones, nobody notices the difference.
Nah cuh there's gotta be a missing ingredient if you needed to years of dental work you were either laying that soda on real thick or drinking it regularly and not brushing enough 😂
I love natural peanut butter because I grew up eating shell peanuts, and the earthy, unsalted taste of pure peanut is so good. when the oils in natural peanut butter separate, all you have to do is mix and churn it with a knife for about 5 minutes. Its quite boring but its not that bad.
Really enjoyed this video. Loved all the nutrition and health talk to. I'm 26F and not a mom but I agree with everything you said. I'm also trying to change my unhealthy food habits to good ones so this was a nice little motivation too.
I believe that you can do it! I’m in the same boat, I want to lose weight for my health and my confidence. The first step is always the hardest, don’t hesitate and just take that leap
Hey same, I starved as a kid and tend to overeat as a result. Recently I cut all sugar out of my diet and eat meat with veggies. Cooking all your meals helps and just sticking to the omnivore basics, making sure you get a well-rounded amount of vitamins/minerals from my food, drinking nothing but water and tea. Japanese portions to keep a small stomach I hope this may help you if you were in need of any advice Edit: I wanted to add that if you want some sugar. Go for fruits. Particularly pomegranates. Imma tell you about my cereal, it's delicious and nutritious. Alright so you get those seeds out and wash em, put in another bowl and get some ginger ale. The tangy with the carbonated ginger ale is as satisfying as pop rocks. As well as pomegranate seeds are so good for you and fantastic for your skin and hair
@RavenHaili thank you for the advice! I've cut out sugars too and have been prepping healthier lunches lately. Meat and veggies like you said! And kinda like pegasus mention in the video, after a few days of doing it, it was very effective and helping me form more healthier eating habits/diets. It's a slow journey but I know we can all do it!
Bruh, put sliced carrots in a pan with olive oil white onion, salt and pepper (sometimes I add a vinegar) and cook them down. It takes a long time, but OH MY GOD slow simmered tender carrots are so sweet and delicious, and onions are amazing for you. I tell people to make fresh pico de gallo or guacamole if they want to eat more garlic and onion, it’s so delicious and fresh jalapeños/peppers are really good for you. I know guacamole isn’t a meal but sometimes I do make a big bowl and add stuff on the side like flautas made with potatoes as a meal. Also don’t sleep on using blue agave nectar or honey in your pan sauces/marinades, instead of refined sugar. Also, make Argentine chimmichurri (my grandma used carrot, parsley, red wine vinegar, olive oil) and don’t overblend but it’s so yummy on bread or your meats and is a easy way to eat fresh herbs and veggies if you add different stuff to it. Tomatoes and parsley is traditional, but my grandma used carrots for sweetness. Sorry I’m ranting, just trying to give you some stuff to search up and try. Wish ya luck on your health journey! I’m a recovered anorexic and LOVE to cook now ❤️😁
Long time viewer, rare commenter here. This is a really interesting topic and I felt compelled to comment my own views and experiences. We share almost identical views on parenting. I’m going to be 30 next month and I’m so glad I grew up without regular internet access or the existence of smartphones. I hope to have children one day and keeping them away from smart devices will be a priority I think. During my childhood, both of my parents worked shifts (police officer and factory worker) so my grandparents and great uncle would look after me a lot of the time. Those three were wonderful influences and I definitely wouldn’t be the person I am without them. My cousin who didn’t grow up with them is very spoiled and expects a lot from her mother. She’s 23 now and I cringe when I hear how much she expects from her. On the topic of food, I can’t remember hating veggies as a kid but I also had access to sweets almost when I wanted them. However, having that option made sweets not seem as special so as an adult now I don’t eat any sweeties besides biscuits or maybe the occasional cake from Greggs. TMI; I had an eating disorder several years ago and lost a lot of weight (due to anxiety not body image) but I’ve come out the other side and treat myself with the occasional greasy food. Finally, on birthdays, my dad can’t even remember my mum’s birthday! I always remind him in the weeks leading up to it and even buy him a card for her. I also remind him when mine is coming up but I think my mum handles that haha he needs a calendar. Our family also doesn’t really celebrate birthdays besides cards and sometimes gifts. My last birthday my friends asked what I wanted to do so we went out for a meal, played some pool at the pub then came back and played video games haha
You know I hope others notice what I'm seeing. Every time a child gets everything they desire, the parents fall further and further into finacial ruin. This has consequences.
Oh you mean the Americans you see unlike you some of us don't constantly move houses or buy new Teslas so we have money to spend on our kids also maybe working for more than 8 dollars an hour and not using the A/C 24 hours a day might help
@@BlackLivesMatter1414Ah yes spoiling your kid automatically means your rich. And also money doesn’t last forever jackass Just stop commenting so you don’t look like a clown if your making comments like this
I was homeschooled from 1st-4th grade and I do think it helped improve my critical thinking skills but also put me at a detriment when I came to pubic school as the NY Regions standards were about memorization versus conceptualization. It does depend on your teacher and just because someone is smart doesn't me they are a good teacher. Although, good luck to these new kids... As it is not looking the best.
I've also had a problem with nutella my whole life, still do. I don't know how to cut sugar out because there's a lot of it in other foods and I've also seen people talk about the side effects of not having a fully balanced diet (basically it affects our mood (we become more depressed) if we completely cut sugar out). I'm worried about my health but i really don't know what to do about it
I'm so glad my parents ended up adapting me into loving veggies, I actually started to refuse to eat meat too, I'm glad my parents took care of my health but also have your children have a good balance between all foods!
@@CDJAM-webm iknow!! it wrecked me in the long run so i have to eat meat now, im alot healthier so yes thank you for your concern stranger! have a great day

Okay I'm not a mother and nowhere close to be ready to be one, but as a teacher this is ruining your kids. I have been stabbed with scissors by a child because I said it wasn't his turn with a toy. And I got blamed for it by the parents. Yeah, I'm not the one raising a future murderer
Great video Megasus, I agree with almost everything except the homeschool topic. You can't expect your child to know how to interact with someone else if you don't let them do that with their classmates and other people of the same age. It's also difficult to achieve the same level of social exposure being home all the time (even if you go out everyday with your parents or something). Yes, it's true that nowdays schools are somewhat of a joke, but at the same time it helps gaining knowledge about something you MUST avoid (in negative cases). Parents should know how to strike a balance between what THEY can teach you vs what school and the world in general can teach them (leaning more on the parent's teachings ofc). Also, going to school sets a routine: it doesn't seem like it at first, but the routine you shape by attending classes is the same that will help keeping up with work once we become adults (waking up early, taking public transport etc).
can confirm: being homeschooled robs you of any social learning you need. i was homeschooled through high school (arguable the peak of when social exposure is important) and was thrown into college with zero ability to relate with people my age. i spent four years as a ball of anxiety with like two friends
My county is well known for being awful for/towards students with special needs &/or learning disabilities. I'm talking physical, emotional and mental abuse. I didn't believe it until I had to pull my son out of kindergarten (Autistic Lv2) bc his teacher was tormenting him, bullying him and pulled his left arm out of socket (this incident was actually what led to us finding out about the other stuff). The BoE did nothing except defended her saying it was her first year. The schools are so bad the county has an amazing Homeschool group (no connection go the Public Schools). We meet Monday-Thursday and every fourth Fridays take a field trip. This is for all grades, PreK-12. It helps with socializing and we can help each other with lessons and ensure the children are actually being taught and not just slacking. We have some great volunteers from the college that come down and help the higher grades with free tutoring. We provide a snack, drink and then lunch for all the students. I'm all for children being socialized and I think school is a great place for it but unfortunately, not all schools are good. When this issue arises I wish other places had homeschool groups like the one we have here parents and students could turn to.
I was homeschooled, I have fine social skills, 2 degrees, great work and life ethic, and genuinely had a better grasp on the real world and how it works than several of my similar aged peers. Homeschooled doesn't mean idiot, ill balanced graduates, in a large percent of cases, they have way better grasp of subjects and life than those in the public school systems. I was testing post high school with English and reading comprehension at 7 years old.
Similar to most addictions from drugs to food and finally social media, it's easier to become addicted, yet considerably more challenging to break free. Recovery often necessitates a substantial period, first on a biological level and then on a mental one.
Giving a 2-3 year old a tablet/iPad is insane. Let them go outside and throw a rock or swing a stick like a sword or something. If you give a toddler a device, theyre only gonna rely on that device to entertain them. They literally wont have a childhood if theyre stuck looking at a screen all day.
10:00 In the UK (possibly elsewhere) a record number of children's teeth need to be pulled from how much the sugar damages them... Imagine all your milk teeth having to be pulled before you're naturally replacing them. Not something you wish upon anyone, especially a kid.
The lack of care some people have for their teeth honestly scares me. Like it's so bizarre to me how some adults are okay with just loosing teeth or some people just ignore cavities etc. I've never really had any dental problems in that sense so I can't say much, but I feel like it should be a bigger problem than it is. When I went to summer camp last year there were so many girls in my cabin with fill ins and crowns and missing teeth, and I'm not gonna shame them for that, but it just feels like a bizarre thing to already have at 14 🙁
I think if you homeschool your child you can absolutely still have enough social interaction and it will probably be much healthier than that of public school social interactions
I can attest I was homeschooled. I'm more socially rounded than my public school peers, since I was not raised by other kids for 8+ hours every day for 12 years. I was talking with a lady, who's a teacher, and she asked where I went for school and I said I was homeschooled. She said "Ah that's why you can converse with me and make eye contact, public school kids can't do that." Which is very interesting. How are y'all doing? How are the public schools kids? I hope you are all doing well
Ehh I don't know about that, as someone who's homeschooled, schoolwork became much better for me, but after a while.. I realized my social skills have been thrown out the window.
TikTok was a mistake. I used to not be able to do stuff/much of those interactive games online and my parents would always be monitoring me when I was on the Internet when I was younger, but I thank them for helping keep me safe. Not to mention, they had/have actual working jobs instead of just leeching money from a Chinese spyware app that steals 50% of your personal info if you get an account there. If I ever have any children in the future, I'm pretty much closing or staying off of any social media so I can raise them properly. Might even also try to raise them the way people used to, when we read them books, took them outside and let them play and make friends in real life.
my mom saw the sugar and fats in the store bought PB and now she just makes it at home, i dont even remember the last time we bought peanut butter lmao, she makes them by putting peanuts into a grinder until it turns liquidy and adds jaggery instead of regular sugar or sweetners and then adds some crushes peanuts cause she prefers chunky PB, and now she bought a wet stone grinder cause she heard it grinds and endures better
This is what happens when the pendulum swings wildly in the opposite direction. The parent had strict parents and they didn't want to do that to their child so they do the exact opposite. Now their child has no boundaries, control, or discipline. The child will grow up to being super picky, entitled, and just insufferable
This kid will never realize that life is unfair when he will get older. You can't have whatever you want in life, you live in a society where you have to think about others as well.
9:35 Even with regular brushing and flossing, (before and after they lose all their teeth) both regular diet sodas can break down the enamel of teeth. Tiny bacteria live between and around the gums of teeth, and when exposed to the amount of sugar in carbonated drinks, they can produce an acid that causes damage to tooth enamel, which eventually leads to decay and cavities.
As an ipad kid myself i think i was lucky till like 2or3 years ago...then shit started going down I gotta get my life together asap...especially after am done with this stressing year
2:50 I was that kid, I dispise Ice cream and Chocolate, but Broccoli and carrots were my favorite to the point where when I was 7 or 8 my aunt got me broccoli for christmas, and it was my favorite gift that night
I know a mom who literally every waking hour puts her almost 3 year old on a tablet. She's so proud that he knows his ABC's because the tablet taught him. He has absolutely no vocabulary and can't talk because the parents don't interact with him. At family functions where food is being served, he always has McDonald's, "because that's what he wants."
You know, even though I know that that's terrible parenting, I don't know if I could do any better, mainly because I have no idea how to raise a child. But at least, I have to prescence of mind to refrain from wanting one since I know damn well I can't take care of them. If my stupid borderline mentally challenged mind can take such a simple decision, how can noramally functioning adults not be able to do the same?
@@foxmask8032 I'm sure you'd do just fine, you already acknowledged that you don't know what to do. Nobody knows what to do as parents, but I'm sure you'd know what not to do. As a mother of 4, two of whom are successful adults, I still am not sure if I did it right. I still question some of my decisions.
@@vap322 Well considering I come from an abusive household, yea the "What not to do" is already pretty well defined. Issue remains "How the hell does one manage the miniature hurricane that is a 6 year old?!" Among other things. But anyway, from what you've said, I'm sure you did great. An easy way to know though, is that if they still keep at least a little contact with you for reasons like keeping in touch or some, then you've at least been a good parent on their emotional level.
@@foxmask8032 I have a similar background, and I'm kind of messed up emotionally myself. But, I wanted to do better, and not by spoiling them, but by being there for them. I talk to my older children often, and they visit once a week, but have lives of their own. There's a balance.
@@vap322 Well if our interaction is anything to go by, I'd say you pulled yourself well. God knows how hard it can be to recover mentally from that. But anyway, I wish you good luck with your two youngest, I'm sure you'll raise them well.
Even tho you said cosleeping is fine, it really isn't. There are lots of cases where babies and todlers are injured (sometimes with life long effects) or they even die, because the parent roll on the baby while they are asleep, and either crushes them or suffocates them. So if you love your child, NEVER CO-SLEEP
i love how he hid the parts where he told unexplainable things he did to his neighbours when he was a kid (burning their houses down etc.) by calling them "nutella rant" and wanting us to skip em not even going to talk about the sleep rant
I find this perspective interesting, because hyper-strict, conservative parenting made me distance myself from my parents for years. I'm sure there has to be a comfortable middle ground of parenting that teaches boundaries but also encourages independance and critical thought. It also might just be a generational divide. Millennial parents tend to be the perpetrators of permissive parenting, while Millenials who were raised by Gen X or Boomer parents grew up under authoritarian parenting. The older generations basically molded the newer generations into being afraid of limitations, creating this "soft parenting" shitshow we have now.
One of my favorite changes that I've made recently with my boys is adding pajama dance party to their bedtime routine. 😆 It motivates them to get ready a little bit faster and lets them get out some energy before we settle down with books.
I must admit, my upbringing was quite privileged, with constant access to an iPad. Reflecting on it now, I'm dissatisfied with how it has shaped my habits. I recognize it's not entirely my responsibility, yet I find myself frustrated. The excessive screen time isn't something I'm proud of, but unfortunately, I'm deeply entangled in it.
You can still built better habbits overtime, it takes motivation, dicipline and time but it will worth it. I used to have unrestricted access to the internet since 6 but at least I had friends and family around me who forced me to shut my screen off from time to time.
Pegasus you will be proud i have mastered having a great sleep schedule and must say that it makes me feel 2x better and i recommend everyone else does the same. (I personally get 8 to 9 hours of sleep but it depends on age and the person but i think that that is a pretty good amount of sleep) also if you are a teen/child and want to grow SLEEP that is one of the best ways to grow and the same goes for if you work out sleep is super important for muscle growth and muscles burn the most fat during your sleep which really helps if you are trying to lose weight.

This is the origin story of every entitled person that makes a scene in public.
You’re so right
'Unlimited screen time' = 'I can't be bothered to do the bare minimum and care for the child I WANTED'.
To be fair the last bit can be optional
No, 'Unlimited screen time' = He will get glasses'.
My kids had unlimited screen time and are soooo fine to day.
Also the fact the toddler has an iPad... AN IPAD?! I'm still sitting here with an Amazon kindle tablet😭
@@Birgitte1984 depends on the child and its age. I didn't have a tablet until the age of 8 and went to school with a nokia phone until like 6th grade and I grew up pretty fine. In my opinion, a child should NOT have a smartphone or tablet or anything like that until they at least start going to school and need one to communicate with their parents
Teach your kids NO! Teach your kids discipline. I genuinely can’t imagine the next generation not being filled with rapists and murderers
Why woukd you think that not being told no would make the next generation Rapists and murderers? Aren't you over reacting?
Fortunately the other major parenting trend is gentle parenting. You respect the kids as independent humans and don't use corporal punishment but you also have firm boundaries. It's basically authortative parenting but you don't slap your kids to make them follow the rules and instead you explain why it's important at age appropriate stages.
@@tiryaclearsong421 I completely agree with this! Your kids should never fear you or fear coming to you. But your kids should know right from wrong and consequences.

When I was a kid, I loved reading, talking to people, and learning about things. After high school:
• I dread reading
• I hate being around people, especially people I don't know
• I only like learning about things I'm interested in or are relevant to the situation I'm currently in
I completely agree with you. Except it happened at the end of middle school for me. High school has been hard.
The last ones fair enough and can even be a good thing as it better than mindlessly following what people want
giving your kid an ipad 24/7 is like giving them a fucking lobotomy
Those parents will never get rid of this child. The older he gets the worse he will be. He will alienate everyone connected to them and berate them their whole life.
Oh, they'll get rid of him alright. When he's 22 and his entitlement leads him to killing a girl because she said no to his advances and he's never been told no in his life lmfao. These parents and people who think like them are fucking lunatics
and when everyone says "told ya so" they will vanish from social media
And they will 100% deserve it.
That's what I thought! Do you know how many times the real world says "no"? You basically have to apply to dozens of jobs before you get your first "yes". That kid will hear "no" after applying to the job he wants and then he'll just give up and live in his parents' basement. Then the parents will be confused why their kid has no motivation or aspirations.
@@bluetiger2468 You know its hilarious hearing people like you being stupid but also pisses me off people can be so stupid knowing all of you are just the average American first 80% of houses in the world don't even have basements second if hes really "spoiled" He won't take no basement. third. Where on earth do you live in America that everyone is so stupid? If he is qualified better than everyone else that applied, he will either get the job or know damn well the people who refused him are the stupid ones and just go try again until he meets someone whos able to get over their own ego and hire him to make their company better

Then you have these parents that can pop out children like it's nothing, and treats having children like a game, a paycheck generator, and/or just can't be bothered do the bare minimum.
It always makes me sad when I see a kid in public carrying around a big kiddie iPad. Like they’re following around their parents while totally engrossed in the screen and not paying attention to anything else. I grew up on the cusp of all this tech becoming popular, so I had things like that but I was never allowed to bring it around in public because a) I might lose it and b) not paying attention to your surroundings is very dangerous as a kid. It’s just sad how reliant on screen time parents are these days to “keep the kids quiet” and such
The amount of technology that kids are exposed to at a young age makes me quite sad and I think it contributes to kids trying to grow up too quickly.

Just beware of the "contact napping" because when my little cousin was a baby it was very difficult to put her to sleep so we always had to lull her in our hands for a long time but didn't dare leave her in her crib afterwards as to not wake her up...and then she got way too used to it so whoever was putting her to sleep had to literally hold her in their hands for hours upon hours, not just for the afternoon nap but also during the night as well. So be really mindful with this, it was beyond exhausting to be stuck with a baby in your arms for many hours every single day and being unable to do anything else, basically just wasting time if I have to be honest. My point is, it shouldn't turn into a bad and unhealthy habit.
Same with sleeping next to the baby/toddler you could hurt them if you move around a lot
@@BlackLivesMatter1414 we'd have done it if it worked that way. I'm pretty sure me and my cousin's parents know better what she's like. So if I say it was impossible in her case, then it REALLY was impossible. Her baby years were very difficult on all of us, she was very problematic, not by her choice.
Also in response to what you replied to Wolfiechrm, it is not as unlikely as you may think. We're so much bigger and heavier than them, we could easily push them, hit them, kick them, even potentially roll over on top of them and suffocate them with our weight...it could happen and I'm pretty sure it has happened, even if on rare occasions. I don't have any exact numbers at hand, of course. Some people (like my dad for example) are very heavy sleepers and I assure you they will not feel anything of what they're doing whilst asleep. I've pushed him and stuff trying to wake him up but he does not respond at all, it's not an easy task to awaken him.
@@Wolfiechrm yeah if i have a kid it's unlikely I'd sleep next to it cuz I roll around a lot and would be a potential hazard

Thank you for the health talks in this video as someone who isn't doing mentally well and having doctors not treat me well because of personal reasons has made eating healthy extremely hard for me.
Hearing another normal person talk about this stuff is very motivating I've been trying to make bento boxes recently and I think I'll go make one after this video! Also I totally agree on the homeschool thing also you can sign up for a proper online school too! where kids do lessons just online and at home personally for me it's been very beneficial and I've been getting great grades because I can study and do work at my own pace (obviously still with due dates) it also helps kids learn how to manage their time responsibly
Idk if this helps, but Yami Mart online is great for Japanese and Asian food stuff. They sell instant miso soup for cheap in packets and you just add hot water. Miso is fermented soybean, fermented things like kimchi or miso are really good for your gut. They have a lot of things for bento boxes because of the nature of their Asian website.
Add more color, like red cabbage or carrots or even a yellow bell pepper on top of like a salad or tacos or something easy. You’d be amazed at how much more cheerful you feel when you eat more color, more fresh onions and more natural sugar (apples, kiwi, etc.) instead of refined granulated sugar.
It doesn’t cure you, but it does help a lot. Keep going, food can be legit therapy and I don’t know you but I’m rooting for you ❤️
I was the kid who loved veggies😂. My mom told me I never gave my parents a hard time when it came to that. She even said my favorite vegetable to eat was broccoli. I even enjoyed salads. That’s WILD to me because I believed all kids don’t like veggies.
I have a theory that part of it is how it's cooked. Correctly cooked broccoli with melted monterey jack and basil is delicious. The overcooked institutional unseasoned nuclear sludge that poses as 'broccoli' that I remember seeing all over the place... That isn't right and it's got no nutrition because it's been incinerated away in 400f water.
Yeah I never understood that either
My mom would microwave broccoli with a slice of American cheese on top
I thought that was some gourmet shit at 4 😂
Just Mac and cheese except no Mac all BROCC
I liked veggies too as long as they were mixed in with stuff. They weren't my favorite things but I didn't have much of a problem eating them. I loved carrots for a little while. What I really loved was fruit, and I loved it so much that my parents would sometimes have to tell me not to eat the fruit that was going into stuff because I'd eat the entire thing in 1 sitting the same day they bought it.
@@manictigerThat makes a lot of sense, when I was little I loved vegetables, still do. But if it wasn’t steamed and it was like sludge and really watery, I didn’t like it. I’m very sensitive to food textures so my personal experience could be different.
Probably because she actually knows how to cook if you can actually cook vegetables any kid will like it but if you just throw it in a pot for an hour of course no ones eating it it will be tasteless and have the consistency of mud
It won’t save the parents from a rebellious stage. When the parents inevitably decide to set boundaries when their child grows up, the rebellious stage is going to be even worse than normal because they’re going to be so used to getting whatever they want that they WONT ever listen anyway because in their head they can always get away with it. Trust me this is how my little cousin was raised and his mom can no longer try and set boundaries because he won’t listen anyway
The rebellious stage of adolescence is not solely dependent on how a child is raised. While I may not be entirely correct, evolutionary psychology suggests that teenagers, in general, exhibit similar behaviour in terms of not listening to their parents. Additionally, if a teenager fails to become independent and think for themselves, it can pose a more significant problem. All teenagers should have the ability to think and make decisions of themselves.

The nutella story is me with Soda.
My parents let me have soda every single day without fail. I drank so much god damn mountain dew I'm probably infertile. So when I was around 22 I finally decided "enoughs enough" and I started drinking Iced Tea instead at the time, Significantly less horrible for you btw, even if still bad. Even tho I havent went on a true 0 sugar diet, if I drink soda nowadays, ESPECIALLY mountain dew, it makes me feel like I wanna puke, its vile, horrible and disgusting tasting. I can still drink vanilla coke, but my body reacts with hiccupping when I drink soda now. So I only have a vanilla coke once every.... few months if that? lmao.
But on the flipside our "adaptation" I was in a broke period and I ate flaming hot mac and cheese for like 6 months straight with those little grocery store cordon bleu things. Was like $3.89 for my dinner for the day. I did that for SIX MONTHS STRAIGHT without fail, or hating it. And again if I eat boxed mac and cheese now? repulsive, no idea why I even liked it to begin with.
My SIL did the same thing to her daughter. No specific bedtime, junkfood, and unlimited screen time. Never punished or reprimanded for her brattiness. The result: this little girl prematurely lost all her teeth, tons of cavities on her adult teeth too. She has stomach problems and lets not forget that she still wears pull-ups because she was never properly potty trained and she just turned 10 years old. My FIL told her daughter you're "mother of the year" LOL.
WEAK junkfood doesn't give anyone cavities when I was a kid I barely ever even remembered to brush my teeth I still ain't got one cavity and thats called not parenting screen time and bedtime have nothing to do with any of that

My parents kinda treated me like this growing up, I was a single child and had a stay at home dad and both would always let me do whatever I wanted and got me whatever I wanted otherwise I would cry and wine about it until I did. I got seriously addicted to gaming and spending money on games and when they tried to take me out to do sports when I was no more than 9, I simply said “no I don’t want to” and they were ok with it. But at 13 I was almost 200lbs and my mom made my favorite dish everyday, literally just fried rice no veggies, despite the fact I was beyond obese and struggling with an addiction that severely affected my grades as I was a barely pass the class student with no friends in my private school because of my horrible social skills I never developed because I was so isolated from the world. When I came to my senses and started working out more and eating more healthy, I asked my parents why they never made me do anything at all my entire life and they always got offended when I’d ask. I hope this family doesn’t end up like mine, no kid deserves the problems I still struggle with and the parents need to wake tf up.
There is no excuse for those dads. My dad works in a different state for the entire week and he only gets to stay with me and my mom for the weekends and holidays but he still remembers that kind of stuff because he loves me and is a good parent.
I really think children under fifteen should be banned from social media. Lord knows how I'd turn out if I had internet access before 15.
I couldnt agree less though, question arises on what kind of phone should be given then, since if you give a button phone to the child im sure theyll encounter bullying for it, then again getting a smartphone with parental locks will just make the child despise you for restricting them. Quite conflicting with how to approach it.
@@unbothered9646these are small problems compared to what they could encounter and the damage long term screen time could do to a child
@@unbothered9646 I lived until college with a 9 keytone phone, so they better tough it out. If I can survive until 19 without a smart phone, so can a child.
@@sarielgrace you know what thats completely fair, i also wasnt the lucky one to get the first smartphones coming out and im quite glad about it. i was just thinking based on how society is now than it was before, astounding to see small children being on a phone the size of their head 🤭

Your nutrition rant is actually like, very helpful when it comes to getting started for me. I’m only 20, but imma cut all the absolute garbage outta my life. At least attempt to. Honestly, thanks for unintentionally motivating me lol
I feel like this is so true and I recently turned 13, so it basically means I am in this new generation. This generation is so bad that Gen z seems like it is 100 times better. Every day when I go to school there are kids like filming toktoks in the bathroom. I swear my iq has gone down at least 50 by going to the bathroom at school 💀
Man I went behind curtains of a room in my school where there are ping pong tables and you can go play there during lunch time, and guess what I found behind the curtains? I found 2 girls that looked like they were 12 and a girl that looked like she was 13 and they were filming a tiktok
Also just to make you lose hope in humanity, I saw a girl smoking a pack of cigarettes in front of the entrance of 7th-8th graders, and she looked like she was 12 that was really disappointing and disturbing

To touch on the home schooling. I highly agree. My kid has had a horrible time at school and the teachers and principals don’t care about what’s going on. Ever since I had my kid start home schooling he’s been able to enjoy being a kid without being bullied and he’s learning a lot faster and easier. It’s crazy how much bullying gets looked over
Ive been homeschooled for a few years now and I quite litteraly hate myself, make sure your kid does still go outside sometimes
How to raise a kid
1 limited screen time only get devices when 11-13
2 give good food
3 Show them manners
4 letting them know what's right and wrong
5 make them do chores for money 1$ for room 2$ for 2 room 3 for toilets and 2 room 5-10 for hole house
6 Make them study and actually help them
7 if they started a fight its my kid fault and my responsibility (and the other kid)
8 money 8-13 5$ a week 14-17 20 a month 18 try to get a job and ill pay you money for working hard 10$ if they can't spend it right then no more money for 3 months
9. Make sure they feel okay and ask about school
10.
Teaching them the basics at a very young age!
11. Don't give them everything they want
Tell me if you wanna add something ❤️
Agreed, I'd say wait till they're in their late teens till they're able to use stuff like social media
@@skittledude1742 why thank you
Personally I think the kid shouldn't have a device until at minimum 9 years old, ideally around 10 or 11 years old. I disagree with screen time limit unless it's a punishment, though I do think the parents need to make their kid partake in other activities throughout the day.
@@Juzokinnie i edited it is it good now?
Always check up on how your kid is feeling. One of the major reasons between the gap between the kid and the parent are lack of communication between the family.
I wish more people could tell the difference between treating your child like a person but being able to set down boundaries (aka, not letting the child be a brat) and just spoiling them and letting them do whatever they want. I wish we were all able to agree more on balancing how to discipline your child without having to hit them to make them into a decent being because two complete opposite sides of the spectrum is child abuse and will mess up your child in some way, like it or not.
My cousin (who’s older than me) had a phone since he was a little 3’0 boy and while I was growing up, he would talk less and less. I’m 17 now and for the past 5 years, he has not said a SINGLE word, he always has one earbud in, phone out and whenever anyone asks him anything, he just shrugs. Thank god my parents have raised me so well.
I was talking with a preschool teacher recently, and she told me about how she has multiple kids th a throw tempertantrums as soon as the ipads/cell phones are taken.
It’s scary. Kids shouldn’t be exposed to social media especially that young. It’s like a constant sugar high and once they come off it they act out from withdrawal. It’s creating a generation of addicts for social media.

Man, you are GoaTed. You removed your addiction of sugary and salty things, I absolutely respect this. The only thing I did was basically remove most of sugars from my diet, the only sugar I get is in actual dishes, dark chocolate (I rarely have it) and beer (because I'm a beer person). I really appreciate you on informing your viewers about your food journey and what things are unhealthy. I know I'm in no way a role model for that, but I make compromises on certain things at least.
Moderation is key. No need to completely cut things out of your diet.
@@ferricassie I have sugar, i just cut out excess sugar.
DUDE! You are so knowledgeable about how food and the body works. Thank you for sharing your experiences so that maybe others can follow a similar path to good health. ❤😊
It's terrible to never say "no" to your kid. Those kids eventually grow up, entered the real world, and then they repeatedly hear "no" for the first time. Two things can come from this, either they resent the world, become angry at whoever says no to them. Or they give up. The first job they apply to says no, so then they just give up and live in their parents basement.
Definitely keep children off TV/Ipad and other mindless timewasters. My nephew became far more articulate and less whiny once those were cut down to specific times. They literally rot your brain.
Hey, some of us grew up from TV and learned a lot. Kids these days are just exposed to the bad side of the Internet
I'm not saying TV is bad per say, but the TV time needs to controlled. Don't let them just watch TV all day, everyday. That is extremely bad.

I realize this likely isn't what's going on here, but approaching parents and asking personal questions to prove which of them knows more about their kids is a sneaky way to collect personal info on the kids that can be used for identity theft or, in the least, get their social media hacked.

my siblings don’t have restricted time limits for their devices but we do of course make sure we know what they are doing and watching online (4 and 6) and don’t have many limits for what they are allowed to eat, but what really helps is that we encourage them to eat healthier options, and encourage them to play off screen and learn new things, even though one of them is autistic and struggles a bit more, both of them are actually more advanced in their classes for the kids their age
i grew up with many restrictions and that really affected how i acted towards many things
it’s important to allow your child to make decisions on their own and if they do have a harder time making good choices for their health (like only eating candy) then it’s okay to step in, that’s what parents jobs are
for example we will make sure they always brush their teeth, but we do it in a fun way for them, not making it feel like a boring chore but making sure they understand why it’s important
my sister thinks it’s a really good “prank” when she tells us she will brush her teeth right after her show but she actually gets up to surprise us by brushing her teeth right away and she loves when we tell her how good her teeth look after
i find allowing the kids to have a balance of freedom and healthy encouragement has really helped them to learn more and to expand what they are capable of with still making sure that you are able to still parent them correctly and be able to make sure they know right from wrong
some kids and families function a lot better with different types of parenting obviously, but this is something that works very well for my household
Can confirm that this brand of parenting has many negative results for the child when they grow up.
I know someone for example who was raised like this and now has impulse control issues, intense anxiety and difficulty making decisions for themselves because of home life vs outside reality was overwhelmingly different to the point that they needed to ask literally all of their friends, family members and partner about which car they should get and could not relax nor pick a replacement car until someone told this person what to do with confidence for them, it made them feel isolated throughout their childhood and teen years from their peers, which lead to long term depression, it made this person impatient, often unintentionally rude because they were allowed to do what they want when they want outside of brief guidelines (like eat dinner with the family, etc).
Why you gotta expose me like that man, I'm working on it.
Ya know, you don't have to publish my life's story
Been a full time Dad for the majority of my son's life. It's not easy to discipline, but it only gets worse when you set their reality to being a prince or princess. Spoil them with love and a firm hand, let them make mistakes when they won't listen, and they will thank you later.

Really loving these longer videos with more of you talking and ranting about random shit
Just wanna put out there, i liked my veggies as a kid. Would i choose them over ice cream or candy? No. But i would absolutely eat my veggies. I especially liked broccoli. But its still inportant to have kids try foods before they say they dont like it.
Eh, I've got pretty high standards when it comes to sweets (not that my budget allows much of a choice though) so unless it's a very specific type of chocolate, nah, I'd take spinach any day.
Rule in my house is that once a kid can properly use a fork and spoon, they are only given what's made. They dont have to eat it, but they won't get anything else. Whatever you didn't eat would be your snack.
Mom was really great about cooking what we liked (and was healtht) and portioning everything correctly. That rule existed to make sure we didn't become picky and unhealthy. As a kid I really enjoyed greenbeans, broccoli, corn, spinach, ect but only because when I was younger and 'learning to eat' my parents didn't cave. It also probably helps they kept me FAR FAR away from sweets of any kind and I wasn't allowed to dictate when and if I drank soda until I was a teenager.
As an adult my cravings happen, but 99% of the time I find fast food and sugary things a bit... much. I struggle to finish a can of soda before it goes warm.
Frrr i fkin love broccoli
@@magdalenasraczomg same
As someone that was addicted to soda, yes.. it does ruin your teeth and drastically lowers the health of your gums. You can brush all you want before and after.. but, acid is acid. Took 2 years of dental work to get my mouth back to optimal health. Now I very much appreciate my new teeth, especially since they look identical to my old ones, nobody notices the difference.
Nah cuh there's gotta be a missing ingredient if you needed to years of dental work you were either laying that soda on real thick or drinking it regularly and not brushing enough 😂

I love natural peanut butter because I grew up eating shell peanuts, and the earthy, unsalted taste of pure peanut is so good. when the oils in natural peanut butter separate, all you have to do is mix and churn it with a knife for about 5 minutes. Its quite boring but its not that bad.
Really enjoyed this video. Loved all the nutrition and health talk to. I'm 26F and not a mom but I agree with everything you said. I'm also trying to change my unhealthy food habits to good ones so this was a nice little motivation too.
I believe that you can do it! I’m in the same boat, I want to lose weight for my health and my confidence. The first step is always the hardest, don’t hesitate and just take that leap
@freelanceartist1456 thank you! I believe in you too!!
Hey same, I starved as a kid and tend to overeat as a result.
Recently I cut all sugar out of my diet and eat meat with veggies.
Cooking all your meals helps and just sticking to the omnivore basics, making sure you get a well-rounded amount of vitamins/minerals from my food, drinking nothing but water and tea.
Japanese portions to keep a small stomach
I hope this may help you if you were in need of any advice
Edit: I wanted to add that if you want some sugar. Go for fruits. Particularly pomegranates. Imma tell you about my cereal, it's delicious and nutritious.
Alright so you get those seeds out and wash em, put in another bowl and get some ginger ale. The tangy with the carbonated ginger ale is as satisfying as pop rocks.
As well as pomegranate seeds are so good for you and fantastic for your skin and hair
@RavenHaili thank you for the advice! I've cut out sugars too and have been prepping healthier lunches lately. Meat and veggies like you said! And kinda like pegasus mention in the video, after a few days of doing it, it was very effective and helping me form more healthier eating habits/diets. It's a slow journey but I know we can all do it!
Bruh, put sliced carrots in a pan with olive oil white onion, salt and pepper (sometimes I add a vinegar) and cook them down. It takes a long time, but OH MY GOD slow simmered tender carrots are so sweet and delicious, and onions are amazing for you. I tell people to make fresh pico de gallo or guacamole if they want to eat more garlic and onion, it’s so delicious and fresh jalapeños/peppers are really good for you. I know guacamole isn’t a meal but sometimes I do make a big bowl and add stuff on the side like flautas made with potatoes as a meal. Also don’t sleep on using blue agave nectar or honey in your pan sauces/marinades, instead of refined sugar. Also, make Argentine chimmichurri (my grandma used carrot, parsley, red wine vinegar, olive oil) and don’t overblend but it’s so yummy on bread or your meats and is a easy way to eat fresh herbs and veggies if you add different stuff to it. Tomatoes and parsley is traditional, but my grandma used carrots for sweetness. Sorry I’m ranting, just trying to give you some stuff to search up and try. Wish ya luck on your health journey! I’m a recovered anorexic and LOVE to cook now ❤️😁
Long time viewer, rare commenter here. This is a really interesting topic and I felt compelled to comment my own views and experiences.
We share almost identical views on parenting. I’m going to be 30 next month and I’m so glad I grew up without regular internet access or the existence of smartphones. I hope to have children one day and keeping them away from smart devices will be a priority I think.
During my childhood, both of my parents worked shifts (police officer and factory worker) so my grandparents and great uncle would look after me a lot of the time. Those three were wonderful influences and I definitely wouldn’t be the person I am without them. My cousin who didn’t grow up with them is very spoiled and expects a lot from her mother. She’s 23 now and I cringe when I hear how much she expects from her.
On the topic of food, I can’t remember hating veggies as a kid but I also had access to sweets almost when I wanted them. However, having that option made sweets not seem as special so as an adult now I don’t eat any sweeties besides biscuits or maybe the occasional cake from Greggs. TMI; I had an eating disorder several years ago and lost a lot of weight (due to anxiety not body image) but I’ve come out the other side and treat myself with the occasional greasy food.
Finally, on birthdays, my dad can’t even remember my mum’s birthday! I always remind him in the weeks leading up to it and even buy him a card for her. I also remind him when mine is coming up but I think my mum handles that haha he needs a calendar. Our family also doesn’t really celebrate birthdays besides cards and sometimes gifts. My last birthday my friends asked what I wanted to do so we went out for a meal, played some pool at the pub then came back and played video games haha
Apologies for the long comment, I got carried away!
Good comment sir, I like.
You know I hope others notice what I'm seeing. Every time a child gets everything they desire, the parents fall further and further into finacial ruin. This has consequences.
Coddling is detrimental to society
Oh you mean the Americans you see unlike you some of us don't constantly move houses or buy new Teslas so we have money to spend on our kids also maybe working for more than 8 dollars an hour and not using the A/C 24 hours a day might help

I was homeschooled from 1st-4th grade and I do think it helped improve my critical thinking skills but also put me at a detriment when I came to pubic school as the NY Regions standards were about memorization versus conceptualization. It does depend on your teacher and just because someone is smart doesn't me they are a good teacher. Although, good luck to these new kids... As it is not looking the best.
I've also had a problem with nutella my whole life, still do. I don't know how to cut sugar out because there's a lot of it in other foods and I've also seen people talk about the side effects of not having a fully balanced diet (basically it affects our mood (we become more depressed) if we completely cut sugar out). I'm worried about my health but i really don't know what to do about it

So that first minute a little video basically showed us the step by step instructions to make a person not grateful for anything, and really spoiled
Great video Megasus, I agree with almost everything except the homeschool topic. You can't expect your child to know how to interact with someone else if you don't let them do that with their classmates and other people of the same age. It's also difficult to achieve the same level of social exposure being home all the time (even if you go out everyday with your parents or something). Yes, it's true that nowdays schools are somewhat of a joke, but at the same time it helps gaining knowledge about something you MUST avoid (in negative cases). Parents should know how to strike a balance between what THEY can teach you vs what school and the world in general can teach them (leaning more on the parent's teachings ofc). Also, going to school sets a routine: it doesn't seem like it at first, but the routine you shape by attending classes is the same that will help keeping up with work once we become adults (waking up early, taking public transport etc).
can confirm: being homeschooled robs you of any social learning you need. i was homeschooled through high school (arguable the peak of when social exposure is important) and was thrown into college with zero ability to relate with people my age. i spent four years as a ball of anxiety with like two friends
My county is well known for being awful for/towards students with special needs &/or learning disabilities. I'm talking physical, emotional and mental abuse.
I didn't believe it until I had to pull my son out of kindergarten (Autistic Lv2) bc his teacher was tormenting him, bullying him and pulled his left arm out of socket (this incident was actually what led to us finding out about the other stuff). The BoE did nothing except defended her saying it was her first year.
The schools are so bad the county has an amazing Homeschool group (no connection go the Public Schools). We meet Monday-Thursday and every fourth Fridays take a field trip. This is for all grades, PreK-12. It helps with socializing and we can help each other with lessons and ensure the children are actually being taught and not just slacking. We have some great volunteers from the college that come down and help the higher grades with free tutoring. We provide a snack, drink and then lunch for all the students.
I'm all for children being socialized and I think school is a great place for it but unfortunately, not all schools are good. When this issue arises I wish other places had homeschool groups like the one we have here parents and students could turn to.
I was homeschooled, I have fine social skills, 2 degrees, great work and life ethic, and genuinely had a better grasp on the real world and how it works than several of my similar aged peers. Homeschooled doesn't mean idiot, ill balanced graduates, in a large percent of cases, they have way better grasp of subjects and life than those in the public school systems. I was testing post high school with English and reading comprehension at 7 years old.
@@skippiijoy21 good for you buddy

Similar to most addictions from drugs to food and finally social media, it's easier to become addicted, yet considerably more challenging to break free. Recovery often necessitates a substantial period, first on a biological level and then on a mental one.
Giving a 2-3 year old a tablet/iPad is insane. Let them go outside and throw a rock or swing a stick like a sword or something. If you give a toddler a device, theyre only gonna rely on that device to entertain them. They literally wont have a childhood if theyre stuck looking at a screen all day.
10:00 In the UK (possibly elsewhere) a record number of children's teeth need to be pulled from how much the sugar damages them... Imagine all your milk teeth having to be pulled before you're naturally replacing them. Not something you wish upon anyone, especially a kid.
The lack of care some people have for their teeth honestly scares me. Like it's so bizarre to me how some adults are okay with just loosing teeth or some people just ignore cavities etc. I've never really had any dental problems in that sense so I can't say much, but I feel like it should be a bigger problem than it is. When I went to summer camp last year there were so many girls in my cabin with fill ins and crowns and missing teeth, and I'm not gonna shame them for that, but it just feels like a bizarre thing to already have at 14 🙁
I think if you homeschool your child you can absolutely still have enough social interaction and it will probably be much healthier than that of public school social interactions
I can attest I was homeschooled. I'm more socially rounded than my public school peers, since I was not raised by other kids for 8+ hours every day for 12 years. I was talking with a lady, who's a teacher, and she asked where I went for school and I said I was homeschooled. She said "Ah that's why you can converse with me and make eye contact, public school kids can't do that." Which is very interesting. How are y'all doing? How are the public schools kids? I hope you are all doing well
Ehh I don't know about that, as someone who's homeschooled, schoolwork became much better for me, but after a while.. I realized my social skills have been thrown out the window.
@@havenmods I'm saying that it's possible not that that's the case in every scenario.
TikTok was a mistake. I used to not be able to do stuff/much of those interactive games online and my parents would always be monitoring me when I was on the Internet when I was younger, but I thank them for helping keep me safe. Not to mention, they had/have actual working jobs instead of just leeching money from a Chinese spyware app that steals 50% of your personal info if you get an account there.
If I ever have any children in the future, I'm pretty much closing or staying off of any social media so I can raise them properly. Might even also try to raise them the way people used to, when we read them books, took them outside and let them play and make friends in real life.
Same here
You hit the nail on the head with "dodging responsibility." These people basically let the kid raise himself along with the iPad.
Your rants are spot on. Kudos to you, young man.
my mom saw the sugar and fats in the store bought PB and now she just makes it at home, i dont even remember the last time we bought peanut butter lmao, she makes them by putting peanuts into a grinder until it turns liquidy and adds jaggery instead of regular sugar or sweetners and then adds some crushes peanuts cause she prefers chunky PB, and now she bought a wet stone grinder cause she heard it grinds and endures better
This is what happens when the pendulum swings wildly in the opposite direction. The parent had strict parents and they didn't want to do that to their child so they do the exact opposite. Now their child has no boundaries, control, or discipline. The child will grow up to being super picky, entitled, and just insufferable
This kid will never realize that life is unfair when he will get older. You can't have whatever you want in life, you live in a society where you have to think about others as well.
i would say the mom giving the internet her kids BIRTHDAYS, name of BOTH their doctor and dentist, AND their bff’s FULL NAME is another bad parent 💀😭
9:35
Even with regular brushing and flossing, (before and after they lose all their teeth) both regular diet sodas can break down the enamel of teeth. Tiny bacteria live between and around the gums of teeth, and when exposed to the amount of sugar in carbonated drinks, they can produce an acid that causes damage to tooth enamel, which eventually leads to decay and cavities.

He has absolutely no vocabulary and can't talk because the parents don't interact with him. At family functions where food is being served, he always has McDonald's, "because that's what he wants."
You know, even though I know that that's terrible parenting, I don't know if I could do any better, mainly because I have no idea how to raise a child. But at least, I have to prescence of mind to refrain from wanting one since I know damn well I can't take care of them. If my stupid borderline mentally challenged mind can take such a simple decision, how can noramally functioning adults not be able to do the same?
@@foxmask8032 I'm sure you'd do just fine, you already acknowledged that you don't know what to do. Nobody knows what to do as parents, but I'm sure you'd know what not to do. As a mother of 4, two of whom are successful adults, I still am not sure if I did it right. I still question some of my decisions.
@@vap322 Well considering I come from an abusive household, yea the "What not to do" is already pretty well defined. Issue remains "How the hell does one manage the miniature hurricane that is a 6 year old?!" Among other things.
But anyway, from what you've said, I'm sure you did great. An easy way to know though, is that if they still keep at least a little contact with you for reasons like keeping in touch or some, then you've at least been a good parent on their emotional level.
@@foxmask8032 I have a similar background, and I'm kind of messed up emotionally myself. But, I wanted to do better, and not by spoiling them, but by being there for them. I talk to my older children often, and they visit once a week, but have lives of their own. There's a balance.
@@vap322 Well if our interaction is anything to go by, I'd say you pulled yourself well. God knows how hard it can be to recover mentally from that. But anyway, I wish you good luck with your two youngest, I'm sure you'll raise them well.
Even tho you said cosleeping is fine, it really isn't. There are lots of cases where babies and todlers are injured (sometimes with life long effects) or they even die, because the parent roll on the baby while they are asleep, and either crushes them or suffocates them.
So if you love your child, NEVER CO-SLEEP
Imagine not caring about your kid so badly you can’t even remember your own kids birthday
whenever I feel like Im spoiled ( My parents arent strict but they still have rules and chores and stuff) I just think of this
Im very thankful for having sane parents. Good balanced parenting is important for a good happy kid.
thank you pegasus for the nuttella rant, truly great wisdom
I loved your health rant - it wasn't even a legit rant, it was humbling truth and well delivered. :)
Okay but like, why am I enjoying this nutrition rant and info by Pegasus
People are way too comfortable with posting their children online
i love how he hid the parts where he told unexplainable things he did to his neighbours when he was a kid (burning their houses down etc.) by calling them "nutella rant" and wanting us to skip em not even going to talk about the sleep rant
Parent: “Son, could you do [important chore]?”
7 year old me: “What am I? Your servant?!”
Parent: "oh right i am your servant sorry for mixing things up sir".
I’ve been watching Pegasus for years. This is my fav video @pegasus . Go on your rants anytime you wanna
Unlimited screentime? I see disaster
Permissive parenting is what made me basically cut ties with mine. That kid is gonna hate himself for a while. It’s inevitable.
I find this perspective interesting, because hyper-strict, conservative parenting made me distance myself from my parents for years. I'm sure there has to be a comfortable middle ground of parenting that teaches boundaries but also encourages independance and critical thought.
It also might just be a generational divide. Millennial parents tend to be the perpetrators of permissive parenting, while Millenials who were raised by Gen X or Boomer parents grew up under authoritarian parenting. The older generations basically molded the newer generations into being afraid of limitations, creating this "soft parenting" shitshow we have now.
"If he wants something from the store he gets it" Bro i had to BEG my mom for a $5 BUNNY PLUSH 😭
Ngl, I had an iPad at 9 and am so glad I didn’t turn out as an iPad kid and have good parents that know when enough is enough
You know who's going to have the biggest headache later? His teachers in school. Tantrums, meltdowns, you name it..
One of my favorite changes that I've made recently with my boys is adding pajama dance party to their bedtime routine. 😆 It motivates them to get ready a little bit faster and lets them get out some energy before we settle down with books.
I must admit, my upbringing was quite privileged, with constant access to an iPad. Reflecting on it now, I'm dissatisfied with how it has shaped my habits. I recognize it's not entirely my responsibility, yet I find myself frustrated. The excessive screen time isn't something I'm proud of, but unfortunately, I'm deeply entangled in it.
You can still built better habbits overtime, it takes motivation, dicipline and time but it will worth it. I used to have unrestricted access to the internet since 6 but at least I had friends and family around me who forced me to shut my screen off from time to time.
Pegasus you will be proud i have mastered having a great sleep schedule and must say that it makes me feel 2x better and i recommend everyone else does the same. (I personally get 8 to 9 hours of sleep but it depends on age and the person but i think that that is a pretty good amount of sleep) also if you are a teen/child and want to grow SLEEP that is one of the best ways to grow and the same goes for if you work out sleep is super important for muscle growth and muscles burn the most fat during your sleep which really helps if you are trying to lose weight.
