He needs a SPANKING. HE IS A BRAT.
I would have hit him just like he hit me(not as hard) and then taken him to the back yard so he could watch what happened to the plane. It would have stayed in the back yard for at least a year.
how TF is the baby not reacting bro, literally got hit with a plane 2 times, 😭
Nah he needs a whooping for hitting that baby
Reminds me of when ur child starts that hair pulling phase and you say ow and stop cause it hurts and they don’t listen so gotta pull their little hairs and it makes me so so sad and feel bad but it’s like yeahhhh that hurttts don’t it! And my nephew stopped that so fast😭
That grab on the head , dude wanted to knock his head off 💀💀
He's envious of the new baby, that's why he's acting like that.
I would have crushed that plane right there and then make him throw away the pieces kuz why?
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️
u could of spanked him and told him to play over somewhere else and not be a jerk by throwing his toy
Like a boss
That’s still gentle parenting
Yeah that’ll do it! Lol Just hope he figures out his infraction! 😆
Good job Dad!!
w dad ❤️🙌
BTA
That kid doesn't care about the toy airplane. There was no reaction when it was taken away. He wants his dad's attention and he'll keep acting out until his dad recognizes that and acts accordingly.
The neighbors : where all theses toys keep coming from?🤷♀️🤣🤣🤣
consequences need to be had,follow thru is extremely important. He said one more time I'm throwing it over the fence, if you say it, mean it,and back it up and follow thru, it's the only way kids will take you seriously.
I would take the toy away for a bit then see what happens. my son had many toys taken bcuz he loved to hit his dad or sister. months later I took them out again.
Already showing jealousy at a young age.
Wanting attention, well, he got it.👍
Good job Dad!!!💕
Great job Dad! Follow through is the best parenting tool!
that's nothing but also luckily it wasn't what I had to deal with because that poor baby. but my niece used to throw her fisher price plane at people and this thing was huge, she hit me in the head one day while I was sleeping and of course woke me up but I didn't flinch, I just laid there because I was fed up with that thing. I heard her wind up and go to swing so I struck, lol, I grabbed the plane mid air, looked her dead in the face and said do that again and this thing is garbage, she ran so fast from that room crying with my sister telling her I told you not to do that lol, but she never swung that thing down on any of us again! shes 20 now and I love her to death but her terrible twos were omg 🤣
omg! just the first time, in a ¼ of a second, I would've face planted from the smack I'd never seen coming...omg 😲 But as a real young toddler, i do remember my mom saying. Do not hit. Do not do boo boos. Stuff like that. As i got older, if you dont have anything nice to say, hush up. Yea 😲
He watches this kid throw the airplane onto the baby are we fr?
I think he's trying to make it fly. After all, it is a plane.
Bye bye planeeeee
Good job!!😆😆😆
He'd be eating the plane
Good job, Dad!!!
Dang Dad .....
Daddy leaves the boy alone with the baby while he’s outside chucking the airplane.
Excellent job Dad! You did the right thing.
That baby could have been seriously hurt ! A big hard toy like that could cause a lot of injury and the father wasn't watching closely enough.
A lot of people are saying spank him, but me personally, and this is just my opinion, I won’t rlly be spanking my kids because I’m very soft hearted and i don’t have the heart to hurt my kid. But I will throw their toys away when they don’t listen.
He needs a spanking bro. wtf did throwing away a toy teach him. He will just find another toy to hit the baby with.
that pretty much is gentle parenting...
Finally a parent stuck to their word!!
Good for that dad!!!
He was warned
if you make a threat, you MUST follow through.
yeah thats gentle parenting tf you on about
good job dad.☺️
He needed to see you toss it. Next time drag him with you.
at least time in the corner..
That’s not teaching him sh
sorry sir but that would and should be handled by a qualified parent.. that didn't teach that child anything
😳😳😳
yup just like that!
Awww man I was hoping to see the screaming fit afterwards :/
That second part wasn't that negative
Sadly you know the baby has been hit with that or other shit before...why you might ask...we'll bc he ddnt let our a scream which normally babies do
This isn’t just “gentle parenting” This is a different kind. If you hit your kids there gonna grow up wise, I talk from experience
Gentle parenting≠permissive parenting 🤦 learn the difference folks
😂😂😂😂
