Sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, but I wanted to know what you guys thought of this video (if you haven't seen it already).

Video Contains Rude Words


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl1ujzRidmU&feature=youtu.be

Long story short: This man finds his daughter complaining about how unfair her life is and how much chores she has to do (not abnormal for a teenager) on FB. He made a little rant video about his daughter which he was going to post on her FB wall. In the end of the video, he shoots his daughter's laptop to "prove a point".

As Youtube is 99.9% of the time filled with idiots who just posts "wat an awsum dad" etc., I just wanted to hear some more "mature" opinions, if any of you will read this at all. :P

Do you think what he done was appropriate (shooting his daughter's laptop)?

He does seem genuinely upset at points and obviously his morals are different from what would be considered the norm today. That said, shooting the laptop and filming himself doing it couldn't have made it any clearer that he was on a huge power trip. Still I'd rather see some backwater nut shooting his daughter's laptop than beating her mercilessly with a belt like that judge video which emerged a while back.

The girl should have been more careful to not get caught since she knew her dad had such a short fuse. Wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that he was keylogging her while she was oblvious, especially since she was incapable of installing her own software. Also I had to laugh when the guy said he worked in IT then followed it up with "I spent $130 on software".

So yeah, a large overreaction brought on by old fashioned morals but the girl was careless to get caught in the first place imo.

LOL Wow, she sounds like a whiny brat ._. - The stuff she considers "chores" are part of daily life for me... I do all the stuff she says as part of my natural life routine, it's not a "chore" for me. She's completely over-reacting.

Wow I honestly did not expect him to shoot the laptop o.o - Brave man. I do think that's a bit unfair though, tonnes of people post rants on Facebook about their parents and shooting a kid's laptop is just going a bit OTT - "It completely restricts her "e-social life" (considering she uses Facebook and all that over ****) and everyone seems to post EVERYTHING on facebook nowadays, imagine all the drama she'll miss out on :rolleyes:" (Huge sarcasm)

She sounds like a very whiny girl to me though, complaining over 4 tasks which would take you 20 minutes at the most.

Conspiracy.

Hmmmm. At first I thought he was a mental case. After watching the video I get what he's doing. It's not like this was the first time she posted something like this on Facebook, he warned her before. It was really stupid of her to post it and then ask him to update her laptop if she didn't want him to see it O____O At least delete it before he touched her computer.

I do think it was O.T.T. though.

In her defence, how many teenagers post crap on Facebook about their parents? If every parent shot their kids' laptop because of that then we'd have VERY LITTLE teenagers online.

I agree with LoveToStack, it seemed more like a power trip.

Also, I doubt this will work. She will probably get more pissed off at him, rebel more and it will turn into a vicious cycle. What will he shoot next, her clothes? :|

I saw this a few days ago, and honestly I think what he did was good. It will definitely teach her a lesson. I'm also friends with the guy on Facebook (sent him a request after I saw the video) and he has had to run news stations and talk shows off of his property. He definitely wasn't going it for the attention and so I think he was just trying to teach his daughter a lesson. He could have gone about it in a better way I suppose, but I don't think he ever expected it to go as far as it did. He was probably only expecting his daughter or family to watch it.

I understand why people are saying that the Dad is doing the right thing trying to teach the daughter a lesson and she should be punished, but I completely disagree with this video, on Youtube more than 24 million people have seen the video everyone the girl knows has probably seen it, how embarrassing for her, she will probably be bullied for it. I can't see how she would just accept what he did, i know if i was the girl I would completely turn against him and probably my family seeing as he mentioned the bullet for the mom thing.

I agree they she probably should of been punished, but he took it way too far the girl probably upset about something her parents had when she made the facebook post anyway, she probably wants a little bit ofrecognition for what chores she does do, as some teenagers do nothing.

what, this is absolutely ridiculous she's just a kid
i feel ******* bad for her, not because he shot her laptop, grounded her or whatever
i don't agree with it but i can understand it (the taking away of the laptop, not the psychotic shooting of it?)
but the fact he's ******* asking her to pay him back for the BULLETS that HE shot in her laptop
and the software HE used on her computer, when she probably didn't want it in the first place

tbh the girls facebook status went ON a bit... Thought it was neva gonna end but i don't agree with him shooting the laptop a bit too far?

if he was my parent i'm pretty sure i probs wouldn't even be breathing the amount of complaining i can do sometimes. i do agree that he went way too far imagine how upset the poor girl is going to be and for him to sit there and dictate to her what is right and what is wrong that sounded like a lot of stuff she had to do around the house and i wouldn't imagine her to be THAT old either anyone who says it's just a 'normal' average thing to do in a day well ask half the kids on this forum and i can guarantee they don't do the dishes, make the beds, do the washing, do the dinner/coffee, clean everywhere 24/7 cos that's what it sounded like to me.

totally out of order

I think his punishment was a bit extreme, but the girl was really disrespectful to be fair. 30minutes of jobs per day is hardly something to have such a huge rant about, and I think its the way that she tried to hide it from her parents that made it worse.

The man is making a lot of money from people clicking links and stuff though, and all of the money he makes he is giving to charity.

Teenagers moan and whinge about every silly thing. She was being disrespectful/ungrateful, but what teenager hasn't? I'm yet to find a teenager who hasn't complained about how unfair their parents are or how their life sucks. And don't lie, I'm sure all of you have done it! :P FB, to most of my friends is just like chatting to friends irl or writing in their own diary. Of course she hid it, what teenager is going to ***** about their own parents infront of them?

IMO, that man blew it wayyy out of proportion. What could of easily been handled with a private talk did not need to be publicised and posted on her FB wall. This man took the wrong approach to discipline, if she should have even been disciplined at all. Once an arrogant teenager thinks they're right, they're going to continue thinking their right. Grounding them for 3 months without properly explaining the situation or shooting down their laptop isn't helping at all. Just because a child fails to listen to you doesn't mean you get the excuse to pull out your gun in every situation. If anything, the only thing that father earned was less respect.

The more I'm thinking about this the more I agree with you.

Who bets she'll have counselling in a few years? -____- not because he shot her laptop, but because this video has gone viral and over20,000,000 people know about it :/

He bought the laptop anyway, if he wants to shoot, he can do. If he wants to take a dump on it, he can do.

She's been warned once before, so why do it again? Memory loss of some kind? From this little status, the fact she's been asked before and the fact that she tried to hide it from her parents upset her Dad and he did it to teach her a lesson and I think this man is sick of his daughter taking advantage of him by asking him for everything and giving nothing back in return.

whomever purchases anything has the right to do whatever they wish to the said property. now if she bought the laptop, then yeah i'd be like that's unfair. but because he did, he can technically do whatever he pleases with it. obviously shooting the laptop is quite extreme and i'm sure he could of done an alternative punishment, but who are we to criticise his actions when he's the owner? can do whatever he wants (within the eyes of the law obviously...)

Memorilla
15-02-2012, 11:26 PM
Well technically yes, the fact that he bought it means he can do whatever he wants with it. But how can you say that, especially in a situation like this? I think people are failing to see the big picture here (not necessarily talking about people on Habbox, mostly people on YT)... I couldn't care less about the laptop; but rather his approach to "discipline" his child. It doesn't exactly matter who bought it, it's his method of discipline that's wrong. People need to stop backing this man's actions just because he bought the damn laptop. It's not an excuse for what he did, he doesn't get to pull out a gun when he can't be half-assed to talk to his own daughter. If he were to punish her at all, he could of easily taken away her laptop, but instead he shot it to "prove a point". And as for the teenager, I already explained it in my other post.

suppose he could just whip out the belt instead. anyway, it all just seems that this is less todo with actually punishing the child and more about attempting to make the video go viral (which it's more or less doing) - but even if his motives what he says it is, srsly who cares. yes we live in a very materialistic society, but once again when it comes to being a parent, "proving a point" is more effective than bog-standard punishments of taking things away, repeating yourself numerous times and generally being blah. by stating "he could of easily taken away her laptop, but instead he shot it to prove a point", do you not get parenting and how to deal with a teenager? since when does simply taking things away solve anything? that's the definition of easier said than done lol. but yeah, he went to an extreme, but aslong as he isn't physically and mentally abusing the kid to harsh extremes, who cares lol, srsly.

I was agreeing with the paying things. She lives in that house, gets clean clothes, a bed, warmth etc for free, and all she has to do is chores which is fair enough. can be tiring so she may want to rant, so her dad being like that was very out of order. You just take away the laptop....

I think what-:Undertaker:-meant is his 15 going on SIXTEEN daughter who doesn't have a job and is still living under her parents care should follow basic house rules unless you're implying that "doing the dishes" and "cleaning the counter tops" is akin to beating his daughter to death ...:eh:And by his property I think it meant the computer that HE bought and he has a choice on weather or not to shoot it, hell he could've popped it in the oven and ate it and we still can't really say **** cause he bought it = he can do whatever he wants with it.. that being the main point.

And not forgetting she has been grounded before and warned that if something like that happens again that she would have to face harsher consequences? Quite frankly... asking her to get a job ain't even harsh... <_<
I agree with the mans reasoningunderstandablethat he is pissed his daughter would talk **** about her family online for asking her to do simple chores.

All except the part Asking her to pay him back for the software and bullets wasn't really what you would consider "fair to her" since he chose to shoot it.

I still probably would of been even more pissed at that, seeing as what she done was a typical teenager sort of thing. And you know what, you're right. Those methods never work as on a child or a teenager. But as I said in my other post, that teenager obviously thinks shes right. Once an arrogant teenager thinks shes right, she's going to continue thinking she's right. Grounding her for 3 months without properly explaining the situation and shooting her laptop isn't going to help. After watching that video it seemed pretty clear that he couldn't care less about his daughter and was more or less mending his crushed ego throughout the video and when he was shooting that laptop (Of course who am I to say).

Will she have stopped doing what she does? Probably. But for what reason? From fear, or because she realizes how childish and ungrateful she really is? Of course half the world works that way, but if you had a child, would you rather have her stop what shes doing in fear or because she knows it's morally wrong? IMO he didn't really prove any point.

True, I guess.

Ahah, forget my silly comparison, it was pretty stupid. I know what he meant, but just because he bought something doesn't give him the excuse to shoot it, especially for discipline. I couldn't care less who bought it, it's the fact he shot it. Anyways, I already pretty much explained my point in my other post. ^.^ But yes, I agree that the teenager was ungrateful and whatnot.

No its not, but it is fine for him to break his own property.

The girl has a right to her life and her safety, she doesn't however have a right to a laptop.

They both overreacted tbh.
What she thinks chores are, I do twice that amounteveryday.
The adult shouldn't of posted it on youtube, he should've sat down with the daughter and talk to her about it, or if he wants her friends to see what a idiot she is, he could've posted something on her facebook wall.
Instead of shooting the laptop, he could've just kept it away from her.

It's funny how at the start he's complaining about wasting $130 on software, them he wastes what, $600/700 by shooting her laptop. Lmfao

That guy didn't have to buy that laptop for her in the first place, if she's going to complain like that then I'd probably do the same. It wasn't like a ten second thing she put in facebook, it's obvious that she went to the effort to hide it from him so there was clearly some malicious intent in there. If anything the only dumb move was shooting it and not just pawning it off.

I would've been more angry if the laptop was just taken away; what use is it broken anyway?

I don't think he was right to post all that on Facebook and stuff, that's just over reacting and really unfair on the daughter. No doubt her friends will have shown her it, that must've been awful. Feel really sorry for her.

For him to react in the way he did, she clearly deserved it. There is no overreacting, there's just different perceptions. He reacted in a way he sought fit, as he's had the experience of living and caring for her, for the past what was it? 15/16 years. None of you have insight into what she is like other than a few paragraphs of venting over facebook.

17-02-2012, 06:50 PM
The fact that his daughter actually ranted on Facebook twice is showing something imo, it's showing that her and her Dad don't have very much positive communications between each other because if she thought he was being unfair she could have just gone to him and spoken to him about him instead of ranting on Facebook. I can honestly say I have never ranted on Facebook about my parents (only about college cancelling lessons) but I know full well not to swear or be ungrateful towards them online as my mum can see it.

However, if I had ranted I would have been told off a lot and it would sink in, which brings me back to communication, maybe if they had a positive relationship before the whole Facebook fiasco started then the outcome may have been much different and it might have sunk in more.

She was 15, doing the dishes , making her own bed, making coffee now and again and cleaning up after herself is NOT difficult.

i think everything that her father said was totally true and really proved a point. she just sounds like an ungrateful little brat who doesn't deserve what she has. however, shooting the laptop might have been a bit too far, confiscating it for a while might have done better or taking it away completely rather than destroying it. it was his choice though and i'm sure she's learned her lesson, she kind of deserved it.

I agree with you. I didn't do half of what she did when I was a child and I read some of my diary entries of when I was a kid and there was a good few complaints about how unfair my life was. haha I do agree that she should be thankful that she has a roof over her head and the maid comment did sound bratty but that manlooks like an absolute wackjob and it is no wonder she has reacted the way she did. Makes me thankful that I have such amazing parents and not someone like him.

I feel extremely sorry for her. If it was me in her situation, it would of perm damaged our relationship and I would have lost all respect for him. I don't get why any father who is meant to love his child would want to humiliate her in front of millions of people. There are better ways to discipline.

No if you actually listen to what the Facebook status says, she doesn't have to just do a few chores. It seems like she has to tidy up everybody's mess and do all the house work... So what house work do the parents do? I don't believe you should just dump all the chores on your child. Yeah I agree that maybe children should have a few cause it encourages independence but by the sounds of it she had far to many and it was distracting her from her studies.

People commenting who are calling her a brat why is she a brat? Just because she's complaining? When I was growing up I didn't do a single thing to help my parents around the house, I just went to school and hung out with my friends my freedom wasn't limited and I'm very independent now so all that bull about "it makes you independent" yeah it might but it isn't the only way you can gain independence.

It's making me laugh because everyone's like she deserved it but none of you can deny that you have moaned/******* about your parents in the past because EVERYBODY does it. If every time I moaned about my parents I think every single one of my possessions would be destroyed if I was in the same situation.

The fact of the matter is, he went too far. Kids will be kids, that's what kids do moan whine and complain, he was obviously just being a drama queen about the situation. As far as I'm concerned she has done nothing wrong and didn't deserve that, the guy is obviously a fruit loop.

if YOU listened to the video you'd hear that what she's saying is total bollocks, and you'd also hear the dad say what the 'chores' were. Yes, she's a brat. Her dad updated her laptop because SHE wanted it doing and all she can do is moan?
Maybe next time she should think about not doing it on Facebook, especially when her dad's in IT.

So what would you do if you complained about your parents, they found out and threw your laptop/pc down the stairs then shared it with all your friends? I think you would be pretty disheartened... How can you rave about what he has done when it's damn well going to make their relationship 10x worse? It's not going to make her appreciate things more it's going to make her hate him if anything, if that was me I'm telling you I'd be OUT of that house hold in a shot (no pun intended). Don't bother saying you have never complained/disrespected your parents in the slightest because everyone has.

I have never complained or disrespected my parents to anyone. It's rude and inconsiderate after all they do.

What so you have never slightly back chatted them? Even when you were younger? Slightly disagreed with something they've said? Wow you're whipped.

Why should she respect him when he clearly has no respect for his daughter. She is clearly nothing better than a slave to him. When I was 15/16 I found it hard to keep up with my gcse work and extra curricular activities without doing my own laundry, gardening and everything else she had to do. In the video he states what she 'really' had to do but why does Hannah have to be the one overacting about her amount of chores? I don't believe what he has to say for a second; tramping on about how he left home as a kid, balanced 2 jobs, a volunteer fireman job, and attended college and high school simultaneously... If he did manage to do all this, well then he's better than most but he clearly expects too much of his daughter. Everything he says is just so infuriating. 'Pay me back for the bullets'?!? And he had the audacity to moan when she asked for payment of chores. You can see where she gets it from.

Actually she didn't have to do much for chores and if you read into it a little she actually has to do less than she had to at her mum's.

Perhaps slightly as a young child, yes.. but never as a 15 year old. There's a difference! :P

yes i've moaned about my parents but i've never written a letter about them like that. it wasdisrespectfuland rude. maybe he over reacted by shooting her laptop but at the end of the day he probably paid for it and therefore it's his anyway. he's only shooting what's his.

Regardless of wether he paid for it or not... It doesn't make it RIGHT! It was a gift to her I'm sure a lot of parents by their children gifts e.g. christmas it doesn't make it right for them to go and shoot their sons Xbox 360 just cause they paid for it for xmas...

when i was younger, i was naughty and my mum broke my action man because of it :'(

but anyway, people can do whatever they want with their own property. if others don't like it, they can buy their own ****. obviously it's quite extreme to do what he did, but what's right and wrong is irrelevant because (aslong as it's within the law), he can do whatever he wants with his property.

I understand where you're coming from but the thing is, it WAS too far never mind "mmm yeh it was maybe too far..." there's no maybe about it, it was and this just demonstrates what kind of a person he is like kirst said before you can see where Hannah gets it from. THE MAN IS OBVS A FRUIT LOOP
