When someone who doesn’t even have kids could do a better job parenting than you

The sad thing is the Mom probably wouldn’t have known about the world if he wasn’t proud enough to show it to her.

Mom: I took away his only contact with his friends and something he takes happiness and pride in. Also mom: *why is he depressed*

I’ll set a POV for boomers, POV: you’ve spent a 7 months on shed, you’re so proud that you showed everyone you know, you chopped down the trees, carved the art, and you’re finally almost done. Now, since you’ve been working on it a lot, you’ve been sleeping more. You’ve been trying to go to bed earlier, but you just love carving animals in the walls. Your mom’s been telling you to wake up earlier, lately, and one morning You go to work on it some more, and you see your father destroying it with an axe.. you're so disappointed.. you can’t hardly eat... you just think about 7 months of your life down the drain... it would’ve been an amazing hangout for everyone.. but now..it’s gone..

These parents will be complaining that their kids aren't giving them money when they grow up.

Saying "it's just a game" is such a weak mindset

"just make another minecraft world" ok mom, let me just break that painting you poured your heart into because you can "just make another one"

The moment I saw “deleted his favorite Minecraft world” I instantly hated that parent

“My kid is sleeping a healthy amount for a growing child, and I’m mad that he isn’t waking up at an early time” Years later “Why doesn’t my child ever talk to me anymore?”

I guarantee this kid will never share anything with his mother ever again.

I'm picturing a really dark scenario in my mind where in the future the mother is in the hospital and the kid (now a grown man) walks into the room and says to her "remember when you deleted that Minecraft world of mine? I certainly do" and unplugs her life support.

HIS MOM : OH ITS JUST A GAME ALSO HIS MOM : Level 69,420 In CandyCrush

Imagine buying your kid something just to destroy it

I’ll always say it, the WORST way to discipline your kids is to take/Destroying their passion away.

What your Parents try to teach you: - How to be disciplined - How to Behave well What you Actually learn: - How to Cut all Communications and Relations from you're family

If my parents did that to me as a kid I would play the “throw mommy’s wallet down the sewer” game.

Kids: *Have bad grades* Parents: *Destroy/Take away what they love* Kids Grades: *Get even worse because the kid is miserable* Parents: Impossible

And parents wonder why thier kids feel like they can't tell them anything.

Mom: *gets mad when kids get angry and cry over when their game got destroyed* Also mom: *crys when someone destroys her village in coin master*

Parent: litterally gets rid of an entire kids childhood Also parent: why won’t he talk to me???

“My kid is doing bad in school, better take away some things that they like” “They are doing worse, better take them away for longer”

Bad grades turn into punishment, punishment turns into démotivation, demotivation makes grades worse, and the cycle continues.

The worst part is that some of these kids actually try in school but they just aren't good at it and the parents dont care

The comparison of destroying a kid's Minecraft world to destroying a mural they've been working on is _incredibly_ accurate. I can definitely speak for this as an artist.

Insane parents and teachers: Let’s see who’s causing kids depression? *reveals Insane Parents and Teachers*

He is nine. He was about to understand responsibility, but now he might tie it to abusive behaviour from the people around him. This kid's mother might have changed his view of responsibility, and turned it into fear.

“Part of being a parent is making your child never talk to you again.” -Homer Simpson

imaging showing your parents something you're proud of only to have them break it because of how much they know it means to you

Anyone who says “it’s just a Minecraft world get over it” hasn’t played Minecraft before Or had a heart

If my mom did that to my Minecraft world, I would delete her Tax Income.

Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results

Also, It is literally impossible to decide when you wake up.

Just because they’re your relatives, doesn’t mean that they’re your family

“He was very proud to show me” and “He spent a whole year working on that world” This is what really makes this so sad. I can’t imagine being that kid, when you’re 9 even the littlest things make you feel really proud and the fact that he was so proud that he even showed it to his mum and she deleted it just shows how terrible of a person she is. Anyone that played minecraft should know how much 1 year actually is when building a world.

This is a world record speedrun for the fastest way to make sure your kid never wants to see your face again.

I think after everything is happening about garbage parents, the next generation of parents will be amazing if they teaches from something like this.

Parent: *He didn't eat his broccoli, so I cut off his tongue and shot his friends! Why won't he talk to me anymore?!*

"how DARE you wake up late because you're at home with literally NOTHING to do besides helping me with the chores. I will now delete the very thing you worked so hard for a whole YEAR. That'll teach you a lesson."

I feel him. Pushed my sister gently (didnt even fall over) cause she was annoying me for around 2 hours (mam didnt do anything) so she deleted a world of mine which I'd worked on for one and a half years. Told my mam, she didnt do anything at all, in fact i was the one who was punished. Now im the quietest and mist depressed kid in my year, between 200 and 400 kids

Kid: Gets a good amount of sleep Mom: Wait that's illegal

The biggest part of this is that at his age, this is probably the only thing he has ever been pround to accomplish. And you destroyed it.

i once knew a kid who’s xbox got destroyed by his mom because he missed an assignment. just one. he gets straight A’s through out the school year but because he just missed a single homework assignment, his mom thought it would be a good idea to destroy one of the few things he does other than homework.

Imagine if, as a prank, just backing up the world then deleting one of them, and seeing their reaction The psychopath’s prank

the mom should have looked at this and realised that her child is DEDICATED at creating what he is trying to create. Every small piece of design in his creation should have been taken into account and appreciated so that way the parent may then, when the time is right, transition the child into adulthood via recognizing their talents early on. This kid could easily become an engineer, a construction worker, graphic designer, etc. All of this was ignored because parents don't seem to know how to recognize potential in their children and don't understand how to invest and build their children up.

Mom: **deletes 1 chunk of kid's life** Kid: **deletes 15 years of her life aka Facebook**

fun fact: destroying your kid's favorite toys will make them want to unplug your life support even more in the future.

Any one who says “it’s just a game” is going to finish my skull collection.

The sad thing is that she even asked if she was "the bad guy" to begin with. It's amazing how she never considered that from her sons perspective, this is the biggest and best thing he's done so far in his life. The kid is 10, so to an adult, it may seem like a mild accomplishment but to him, the accomplishment was huge.

This is why kids have trust issues.

I wonder how she would feel if she was working on a huge art project and the kid came and destroyed it because he felt like it. I hate it when parents destroy things kids love out of anger, then they act all surprised when the kid becomes depressed and/or continues to misbehave.

I try to forget there are parents like this. Not because I don't want to be concerned for these kids, I really do, but thinking about these parents for too long wouldn't be good for my mental health. Thank god I have awesome parents who never even thought of doing something like this when I was young.

I hate how some parents treat their kids as a tool like a “wake up and do my work cause I can’t )

If y’all think this is bad , then there’s this parent that deleted their kid’s steam account.

As a father, I understand taking away computer privileges when my child hasn’t been behaving. Not when the kid sleeps in. But destroying a thing my kid creates... Nah that’s not cool in my opinion. As an aspiring musician, I would hate it if someone destroyed my work. I wouldn’t be able to do the same to my son. It just ain’t right.

My mom after disconnecting my internet so i can focus on online class: "why do i fix everything i touch?"

His own mother, the one person you know you can trust, the one person who should know you better than anyone and understand what makes you happy, and they do this.

Imagine having a coding project that you're doing for yourself that you really enjoy and then, after a year of hard work, your parent decided to delete the project file and take away computer rights. This is the same thing. If that happened to my project, to have it completely deleted, I might never pick it up to try again. That could've been the birthplace of that kid's passion for architecture. So not only did this mom ruin that kids already existing project, she could've ruined their entire passion.

I hope in a years time he gets his moms phone and deletes the years of progress she probably has on candy crush

As a Minecraft fan, this made me sick to the stomach.

I bet if the kid would start hiding things he liked from his mom, and if his mom would find out about it, she'd destroy all of it over hiding it from her

That is NOT the correct way to parent those children. What is wrong with these people?! ._.

Kid seeping in= destroying you child’s trust? Yep that seems right to me

Parents: Money doesn’t grow on trees Also parents: Casually destroys a TV and game system that totals out to at least 300-600 dollars.

My Uncle who is 56 uses Minecraft as a reference for his art. He was devastated when I showed him this story.

Honestly, people who are like this usually don’t see it from the kid’s perspective. This kid spent a year on a game he was passionate about and then suddenly it was taken away from him. The mother, on the other hand, sees this as a “punishment” for sleeping late. He’ll probably remember this experience for the rest of his life and the mother would just forget about this in a year or two

I literally don’t understand why this parent has such a big deal with her kid sleeping in. I’m more productive with school and get better grades if I go to bed later and wake up later.

I completely understand the Minecraft one, if my dad did that I would never talk to him again, EVER

Imagine having a lot of money in the wallet, having rare items that are worth thousands, and owning expensive games in steam only for your parents to delete it ;-; This didn’t happen to me but it happened to someone once

The kid’s 9, so 1 year working on his Minecraft castle is literally more than 10% of his life

Taking away computer privileges would have also taken away his ability to play on the Minecraft world, so there was absolutely no reason for her to delete the world entirely. Clearly she did it out of petty frustration (especially since she knew he was proud of it).

You know, my brother was swearing like a maniac because I wouldn’t give him my phone ( because I had to charge it ) and my mom is quite strict when it comes to swearing so she normally punishes us whenever she hears the slightest hint of a swear word and so while my brother is swearing, she comes into the room, takes my phone, unplugs my PS4 and tells me that I’ll never get it again. It’s been 2 months and I still didn’t get it back

Similar story happened to someone i knew. 9 year old kid did the best mods for battlefront 2 i ever played. I mean really amazing like new plantes, units, weapons, jedis etc. I was his play-tester. He was forced to always wake up at 9am. Once, he overslept 5 minutes. His mother destroyed all of the mods he created. 2 TB. I will never forget it. The look on his face and the abyss in his eyes...

Parents also need to give their children a certain degree of freedom. That's why so many adults today are messed up, trying to control everything. Because that's how they were raised, with every aspect of their lives dictated by another.

Parents: treats kids like trash Kid turns 18: never speaks to parents again Parents: suprised pikachu

Bruh they're not only gonna lose the trust of their child, theyre probably gonna lose the CHILD.

i got a gift card for christmas awhile back and decided to buy a add on for skate 3... the add on was like 5 bucks and i came back from school and my mom has gotten the email i bought something and even tho she knew the last 4 digits of the card wasn’t hers she completely wiped my xbox and after i told her it was a gift card she said “oh sorry” so basically i got my xbox wiped for no reason i had over 70 games and a ton of progress bcs i had the same xbox profile for 7 years that was a few months ago i’m 15 right now

When I was like 8, I made Jurassic park in Minecraft. I worked for a year on it too, and I loved it so much, as I built it with no mods and built everything myself, from the enclosures to the Dinosaurs, to the visitor’s centre. Someone managed to get into my world and then decided to destroy it all when I wasn’t online. He took the spikes and tail off my Stegosaurus, he removed the walls in the Mosasaurus enclosure, which is an aquatic animal, so it flooded the park, and my T-Rex, While not amazing, it’s still my favourite thing I’ve built in Minecraft, He utterly ruined, leaving only three blocks as a reminder of what was. I cried. Thank god I have supportive and understanding parents, unlike these chucklef*cks, who would say “It’s just a game”. They knew how much I loved that world. Don’t worry, I rebuilt it, and my big sister even helped out. I feel sorry for these kids though, who have nobody to fall back on. Here’s a quick life lesson: If you are absolutely devastated about something, remember that somewhere, someone will understand, even if you don’t think there is. They might not be who you think, and remember. No feeling is final

The thing about this that makes no sense is that when you break your kid's game console they end up not having something to motivate them to do better. It's no longer "if I get better grades, I can use my ps4 again" because they dont have it

“It’s just a Minecraft world get over it you can make another one” “It’s just your favorite football team losing get over it they can play again next season”

I *had* a Gameboy collection that I worked on for a year. Spent $100 of my own money, 100%ed almost my whole collection. It was sold about a month ago for "talking back"

This child won’t have nostalgic memories of Minecraft when they grow up

“ *I broke his arm because he won’t wash dishes, why can’t he write with his right hand anymore?* “

When your playing a live game and your parents say... “just pause it”

My 11yo cousin's mom sells his stuff when he acts up, she sold 12 of his XBox games and 9 of his Switch games and 2 of his cellphones and she has given a few of those games and even consoles she gives to his 6yo sister, when she sells them to either buy more cigarettes or gifts for her daughter

These parents just dont care if their children are happy, they just want them to finish school with max grades and be a succeful multimillion dollar company, even tho they put a lot of stress on their kids

Mom: deletes minecraft world everyone: *THAT WAS A GRAVE MISTAKE...*

Me wake up at 11:00 everybody at home”still sleeping “

My mom is the opposite. She understands as a teen that I need lots of sleep.

These are called insane parent there is a whole subreddit for this

There needs to be a license to have a freaking child.

That's the problem. When quarantine started and the new semester started, I just said to my mother who wanted me to keep waking up early "Why? I don't have online class on some days, I don't have any assignments right now, you won't let me take some naps from time to time, I only really do the dishes, you won't let me go get a job and you don't want me on my electronics more. What am I supposed to do all day? Not to mention sleeping in a little extra helps just a LITTLE bit on days I'mfeeling more depressed" and her response is just "Clean the car and the house. You're depressed because you're lazy and don't have any religion in you" No I'm depressed because of how many times you've broken my trust, blackmailed me, almost ruined my friendships, control who I'm friends with and beat me for the stupidest things The worst thing is parents like this refuse to see where they're wrong. They only agree that giving over the top punishments are acceptable and if anyone disagrees with them, they'll throw a fit

Abusive Parents: Destorys things their childern stuff *Laughs In Parents that know it costs to repair/buy again.*

Parents: destroys relationship they have with kids Kids: never talks to parents again Parents: "wHy wOn'T mY kIdS tAlK tO mE?"

*Parent: He didn’t Wash his plate, So I Shot him in the stomach, destroyed his Pc, Set his Xbox games on fire, and Took his Phone. Why is he threatening suicide??*

Honestly my parents don’t care if I sleep in until 2 pm, they just get worried that im not getting enough sleep. They only take away my devices when I’m disrespecting them and my grandma or if I’m on them for too long but that’s it

Optimus: u can’t bond over a show or movie Weebs: say hello to my body pillow

And then when the kid grows up and leaves them they say that he is ungrateful and spoiled

Dad: *deletes kids minecraft world* Everyone: [loads shotgun with malicious intent]

“School is not coming back this year” Zoom classes: Am I a joke to you?

"Its just a minecraft world, just make another one." Ah yes let me just spend an additional 500 hours trying to remake all the hard work that was thrown into the void.
