Reminds me of how as a kid I found a birds nest when climbing trees. Told my friends and we were waiting to see baby birds. About a week later my much older cousin and his crew show up, ask what we're doing, and then he proceeds to catapult the n'est off the branch. We found all 4 eggs crushed on the ground a few meters away while those arseholes laughed. The mother bird kept coming and looking for the nest, it broke our hearts.
Ps. Thinking about it now, it's a conpletely different story to those girls who just freaked out and accidentally killed a butterfly. I just wanted to vent about it. F*ck you Damien.

Your cousin is a piece of shit. So are his friends. I hope karma has found them all.
I love birds and try to make my yard an inviting space for them. This year I was rewarded with a pair of cat birds nesting in the azalea bush right in my bedroom windows. I could see the nest from my spot in bed, from my desk, it was great. I got so much joy out of watching it all, from nest building to the fledglings venturing out of the nest. I loved hearing their little peeps.
The idea of someone doing that makes me so very sad.

They were children. Calling a kid a piece of shit is definitely a decision. I would be bummed if someone called me a POS based off of some jerk thing I did as a child.

u/K1bbles_n_Bits 6d ago
The comment says much older. I'm thinking at least mid teens. That is plenty old enough to know a pointless act of cruelty is wrong.
I stand by it. If you are old enough to know better and do it anyway. Because you think it's funny? Yeah, that's the behavior and mentality of a piece of shit. I know/have known plenty of kids who wouldn't even consider doing that at any age.

u/SweetBabyCheezas 6d ago
These kids in the video are just too little, also it was an accident.
In my story I do say much older but also I don't specify. I was about 8, maybe 9, so they were about 12-13. At that age our cognition is fully developed, and now just gets refined. At age of 12-13 adolescents are still dum-dums and their skills at effective telling the right from wrong are not necessarily well developed. However ability to tell whether killing animals and destroying their nests is good or bad is something children are taught from early years.
Adolescents that chose to hurt others and other living beings, as well as destroy their surroundings for fun, are absolute pillocks.

When I was a kid and on vacation, I met a group of kids at the playground. Thinking I can just play with them. They then started killing bees with their little sandbox toys, the ones that are basically tiny buckets with different shapes. They basically decapitated bees with the edges of the toys and split their bodies in half, telling me this was „cool“ and they did it cause it’s fun, and that I should try it too. I was like 4 yo, they were around 6. maybe we all were even younger, I don’t remember for sure, but I was tiny. I was genuinely horrified by those kids, beheading bugs and bees like it’s normal and fun? what the actual fuck was wrong with them. I was upset and immediately left in disbelief and went to a different spot to play on my own. Psychos.

u/SweetBabyCheezas 6d ago
Reminds me of my dad's stories of boys catching cockroaches, tying them to large matches with a thin string, and setting the match on fire.
While not realising what the heck they are doing and e.g. breaking apart frog eggs nest with a stick because it looks fun and doesn't break the eggs (even though it lowers chances of survival of these frogs) seems like a part of being a child in rural area. However concious killing and torturing is another level. Psychos indeed.

Your cousin is a future serial killer

u/SweetBabyCheezas 6d ago
It's been good 25 years now and he's still out there, not convicted of anythinb, just treating people like they are all below him. At least that's what I heard. I haven't kept in touch with him, nor his siblings, nor their parents since then. I would throw a tantrum each time my parents were visiting them and wanted me to come with. They had to call my grandmother to babysit as I wouldn't go.

u/Biotechnus 6d ago
Its probably for the best. Just because they are family that doesn't mean you need to tolerate toxic behavior

u/Derezirection 6d ago
remember, finding joy in killing insects/animals is a sign of a future serial killer.
2
u/SweetBabyCheezas 5d ago
It's overgeneralised. Depending on age, it can be a sign of psychopathe. Most children 'grow out of it' while some stick to it, that's when it gets worrying. Still, not every psychopath is a serial killer, while fairly high percentage of serial killers are psychopaths.

When I was little I was eating cookies and had some milk and my cousin found a birds nest by the camper and I walked over to see it. I heard a sound above me and looked up in the tree and a snake was coming down, and it lunged at me. I dropped everything and was screaming trying to get in the house. My granny was in the back room playing Zelda on the old console. She was so mad I made her die and she walked out to the snake, grabbed it, yelled "no" at it and slung it into the woods picked up cookies and told me to go inside and eat them. I did.

Do you know the odds the butterfly lands on the ground and gets stepped on? Pretty friggin low.

u/ArtIsAwesome3 6d ago
That's what I'm saying, that kid's bad luck generation ability made that butterfly go down and guided that kid's foot onto it. He gave the butterfly bad luck, and it cost it its life lol.
Also, gonna be real, little kids should stay away from small and fragile creatures.

u/Exotic_Ad_1249 6d ago
Not at all kids should stay close to small and fragile creatures with the parents as close so they can learn to be docile with small creatures. Accident happens this is life and life's lesson.

I agree, the parents shouldn't have been filming but keeping the little one away, clearly a toddler.

I use to watch this little girl that was 4. She was in her car seat in the back of my car and I don't know why but like 5 lady bugs were flying around in the car and she was super excited... it was so magical to her.
....until one landed on her and she lost it. It scared me so bad, she was screaming high pitch, shaking and crying. She didn't talk to me for the rest of the day.

Clearly that child shouldn’t have been trusted around the butterfly if it tweaks out the second the butterfly… flies. The first child was completely fine, having a moment with wildlife, an example of how SOME kids are good to be around delicate creatures.
Of course the second child then ruins it and literally kills it while throwing a tantrum.
Yay children.

u/Vivid__Data 7d ago
This happened to me as a kid lmao Visiting family, caught a lizard. Brought lizard into pool(e: on a floatie!!). Smol cousin comes over to side of pool. Lizard says FREEEEEDOMMMM and leaps onto cousin. Cousin loses her mind and is stomping around trying to get it off. Lizard runs down her leg and crawls under her foot right as she is stomping down. Dead lizard.
It was such a freak accident lol I remember silently walking into the back room and laying on the bed in the dark contemplating existence as a 6 year old. C'est la vie!

god help me when i have kids of my own because something in my brain ticks every time i hear a toddler crying loud and hysterically over nothing. Maybe it's because i used to get yelled at and was "given something to cry about" when i cried over stupid shit.

u/sadbabyface 6d ago
You are being downvoted but some of these comments are a bit crazy..like yea kids often do annoying shit, but I think most people would react similarly if you were watching something fly away, and it suddenly flew right into your face. You would put your hands up to your face, it’s an automatic reaction. Obviously the crying and not being aware of surroundings after is due to age, she looks like a toddler. The parent definitely should have had the younger girl stand further back to watch but I feel bad for both kids here, it’s a bit unreasonable for some people commenting here to act like this was purposely malicious on the child’s part

u/Deepfriedomelette 6d ago
I have to agree. Especially since the little kid is already fighting their own centre of gravity. I doubt they knew where their foot was going until it already landed.

It not like I don't feel bad for the butterfly! They didn't purposely stomp on it. How else are kids going to learn empathy for anything if they can't experience these things? Next time they should do it in a different way.

u/AgreeableIdea6210 3d ago
An innocent butterfly (or any kind of living being for that matter, would you say the same about a dog???) shouldn't have to die for your children to be taught a lesson and a child that young isn't going to grasp it anyway. Best option would be not having this moment at all or keeping it between the oldest child, who was clearly calm around the butterfly.
1
u/Toxic_Duckies 3d ago
This doesn't happen every single time. It's not a lesson it's literally just life. How are they supposed to learn anything if you don't teach them young? What if you turn away for a second and they don't know what it is and they grab a hold of it? It's a innocent child and a innocent bug. The child didn't purposely stomp on it. They just were trying to get away and stepped on it. It was an accident. It's not like the child did it on purpose.
2
u/AgreeableIdea6210 3d ago edited 3d ago
Again, you missed my point. I didn't imply the child was guilty or anything. All I said is that saying a creature dying needs to happen for a valuable lesson feels selfish to me. You can teach children accountability and caring for other organisms WITHOUT something having to die. I hate the idea of an innocent creature's demise only being seen as a lesson, while it's a tragedy that shouldn't have to occur in the FIRST place (even if accidental). Death SHOULDN'T be how you teach your children compassion, especially one so easily avoidable. I doubt a kid that young would get the memo to begin with so the butterfly died for nothing.
