If you don't let your kids fall and hurt themselves, they will turn out to be weirdos who have no concept of what hurts and not. Getting hurt is an important part of learning empathy, so being overprotective and "rescuing" your kid all the time will eventually create a person who is lacking empathy, and have a bad understanding of physical danger.

#4 Yes and a kid falling from the top of a rotating tube onto it's head at the wrong angle could break it's facking neck, moron.

#6 So i'm a moron for making a generalizing comment about not freaking out over every little thing a child does? It should be there black on white (or whatever color scheme your windows has), that i'm making very loosely comment about a general idea, and I'm not saying that whatever is happening in the video is by any means safe. That was the whole point, that its not safe but to realize that you cannot control everything. And no, i don't think she would break her neck, she is a human like the rest of us who is capable of twisting and turning just as our instincts have taught us over the thousands of years. So next time (as you are a frequent user) you see someone comment something that makes you want to use words like "moron", maybe ask twice before answering, one time to OP, and then ask yourself one more time after if you wanna use your wording like you do. This way we don't have to call each other names and have discussions that goes out of hand.
#5 "Our findings lend support to the theoretical model of empathy that explains involvement in other people's emotions by the fact that our representation is based on the representation of our own emotional experience in similar conditions." - (just one of many paragraphs, and it should be logical to understand the context between your own experience in pain, and relating to other peoples pain, aka physical empathy, so in this case, one actually has something to do with the other)

#6 Firstly below the above video is the word 'COMMENTS' which to most right thinking people on snotr is the area where you comment on the actual video you have just watched. Making a generalised comment on how flexible and bendy children are and that parents should allow them to learn from possibly breaking their necks may be reasonable for some instances.
For instance it might be reasonable for a child to run too fast through a park and fall over, thus learning not too run to fast as you end up with bleeding knees. Would it also though be reasonable to leave the handle of a boiling pan of water sticking out over the side of a cooker, so that the child could learn not to reach up and grab it by scolding itself (NO!).
The video that you should be commenting on shows a child holding on by one hand to a revolving tunnel where at it's extreme point renders the child at least ten feet from head to floor, wouldn't you agree? I have first hand experience of a child falling awkwardly from a similar distance who fractured three vertebrae, broke two teeth and severed it's tongue and lip. As revolving on a tunnel doesn't generally become a daily occurrence for most children I fail to see any lessons learnt.

#8 So that is what the word "comments" mean, thank you for clearing that up, lord snotr. I must not be one of (in your definition) the right people then. I love how you make it into that i want to go around boiling kids and break their necks to make them learn, i see clearly now that my first comment said exactly that. The logic is strong here, so i will let it continue to flow with you, young padawan Next time, if you actually want a discussion, don't start indicating that you think the other person is a moron, or not "right", or sadistic or cruel. In other words, keeping a mature discussion.

#9 Glad I was able to educate you on the meaning of the word 'Comments' although quite surprised that you had managed to get this far in life without having come across it previously. As far as me being a young padawan and a lord (thanks for the title by the way, my guess is that I have quite a number of years on your goodself (especially as you misunderstood the word Comments).
You failed entirely to read my 'Comments' and seem now to have gone off on a tangent claiming that I accused you of wanting to go around boiling kids and breaking their necks! I said no such thing. Read your first 'Comment' (the one you made before you knew what the word meant, yes that one) You were the one bleating on about and I quote "If you don't let your kids fall and hurt themselves they will grow up to be weirdos" I am beginning to think you may be talking from personal past experience. I was simply pointing out that some situations are not good for kids to learn from as they may hurt themselves a little beyond a scraped elbow (Elbow is the bendy bit that allows you to get your fingers near your nose so that you can pick it. It does have many other uses but that's not important right now)
By the way is this a five minute argument or the full half hour?
Very best regards Lord Judge Snotr Jake

Very dangerous!! I think if the Mother wants to really help her kids, she could show them how it is done. She could show them how to tumble around and get up hurt and not cry. She could shake off the pain and keep going. That would be a nice Motherly lesson that the kids would surely remember. I think I would have been more impressed by that than watching an innocent kid, who is trusting and relying on Mother's judgement to make sure they are doing something safe.

#16 Your popcorn doesn't scare me Mafiosi, over here we have butterkisp! many times more powerful. So much so that it overpowered mere popcorn and trapped it in a sticky sugary overcoat (and made it taste nice) By the way I've heard that your powers are all one sided, to prove it I challenge you to turn all my admin administered negative markdowns into double positives... Lets see if you really have POPCORN POWER If you can't I'll laugh and jibe you..If you can I'll write you a lovely poem

As it's now two hours since I wrote the above message and I still have the facility to update it, I would like to add that obviously if you ignore this whole comment then I have clearly wasted several minutes of my life in two sessions. On the other hand, I almost feel that I have travelled back in time somehow wooo!
