    And all the adults stood around and watched. Well - maybe the kid had a better lesson having the cat ditch him out than by having a parent do their job and spanking him.

      I learned more lessons from the consequences of the stupid $h.t I pulled than I ever did from a spanking. Spankings just taught me that I needed to get better at not getting caught

          It's disturbing to me that the adults don't seem to mind that the child is mistreating an animal. NOT okay in my book. Ever.

        I didn't spank my kids. I made their life a living hell when they misbehaved. They learned quickly that I was not to be crossed and they have spent the rest of their life trying to make me proud.

      Of course, these days parents allow any crap to get on video, so it will get record views on YT, and make then some money.

      After all if a bopping Owl can go viral, and a dog dressed up as a spider, then anything is possible!

      What concerns me is stupid kids, killing themselves off with risky stunts on building, etc, for some TY coin!

        Why does that concern you? Seems the kind of problem that rather solves itself.

        Back when Jackass was big, and they put on a firesuit and BBQ'd themselves... some kids decided to douse themselves with lighter fluid and light up.

        Someone I know was all upset with the TV show... I was like hey, as far as I'm concerned, every kid should get a bottle of lighter fluid and a book of matches on the first day of first grade. The ones that come back the second day are entitled to a free education at state expense.

          Mistreatment? Am I missing something.?

          I remember we would take my dogs down to the lake behind our house and throw them from the 10 ft train tressel. They loved it especially on hot 100 degree weather in Summer. Splashing and swimming. They couldn't get enough of it

          This is a pool that has a 1 foot drop off. I don't see how this can be construed as mistreatment by this little boy ?

          Its an adorable and funny video. Totally harmless

            It might solve itself, but if YouTube wasn't around, who knows how many kids would still be alive?

            But if Claude is right and there is nothing after death, then it doesn't really matter, but l think that there is more to it than that!

    Good, the little **** learned a valuable lesson about inertia.

    Meanwhile, the cat just walked away.

      Tellya, this is turnin' out to be a frickin' sh*tto day for the felines.

      By nightfall, I'm expectin' to see cats shot outta cannons, spun across ice in buckets, flushed down the pan, hosed down with honey, blitzed by 10' robotic mice, swung in hammocks by demented teens, plucked raw, dumped in a pit of buzzin' vibrators, wrapped in bacon, and dressed up as Lady Gaga.

      (But I am not a psychopath, so if nonea this happens, I will not lash out until I get my way.)
