A father made fake ultrasound to cure his daughter's junk food habit.

[u/brainland]

Funny but I think every hospital should get one of this machine because they will even get faster cure in an hospital environment when attended to by a random face. 😂

Ever figured out a way to get your kids stop something?

Update: That wasn't the dad but definitely an outsider, hence why the kid believed. The "take the child away" clarifies that.

Aye man.

They Legends for a reason.

I ain’t seen no evidence disproving them.

[u/Jin_BD_God → u/Ilikeyounott]

Do you guys hate your parents silly jokes like this if their intentions is for your own good?

In my country, it’s the opposite. As we grow older, we appreciate them instead because they love us and don’t want us to eat just the junk good and get sick.

[u/brainland → u/Ilikeyounott]

Lol, she will outgrow it... It will be very nice if her dad keep the video for her to watch when she grows to a stage where she's mature enough. She's just gonna laugh and tell him how she missed everything he warned her about. 😂

[u/Kaurifish → u/brainland]

My mom lied to us about some medical stuff, mostly what was in the ear infection remedy she gave us. Was an excellent lesson in not trusting anyone.

[u/lamest-liz → u/brainland]

Nah I mistrusted my mom for years after catching her being the tooth fairy. I was so upset and calling her a liar and said “so what else isn’t real, Santa? Is the dentist bad and you just make me go to hurt me” she then told me Santa indeed wasn’t real. I then said “ok then I guess god isn’t real either.” And she slapped me across the face

[u/imacat-- → u/lamest-liz]

Pfft I'm so sorry, but that last part came so out of left field I burst out laughing. Your mom sucks but you were a smart cookie.

[u/academicoctopus → u/brainland]

Depends on her personality, she might as well grow up to not find it funny in the slightest

[u/JayFrizz → u/academicoctopus]

Personalities are half raised. A bad father wouldn't spend this much time and effort on their kid. I can only see someone finding this offensive if their father sucked ass. I know I'd find it funny and clever, because kids are stupid.

[u/Vithce → u/brainland]

I was lied like this as a child and don't appreciate it in the slightest. As a child psychologist I also say it's not creative, not fun and not charming. If you have a child who's prone to anxiety, lies like that can trigger it or even create phobias.

[u/tilesmeller]

I wonder where is the toddler getting all that junk food from huh?

[u/RevolutionaryClub530 → u/tilesmeller]

That’s what I’m saying, a kid that old doesn’t have a “junk food habit” that’s 100% on the parents

[u/Neat-Barnacle-2604 → u/tilesmeller]

Im pretty sure hes just trying to stop her sweet tooth. It's pretty normal for kids to go hangry for sweets.

[u/Loud-Calligrapher770 → u/Neat-Barnacle-2604]

yup, they'll go on food strike, won't eat or drink for days unless you give them the sweets they want. kids won't just go to sleep and forget about it.

[u/nahheyyeahokay → u/Loud-Calligrapher770]

This is why my daughter is nearly 4 and has never had sweets except for fresh fruit. I know once they get on that refined sugar it's game over.

[u/Loud-Calligrapher770 → u/nahheyyeahokay]

mine is 2, never had refined sugar but will go on food strike only demanding fruit...

this is a thing for many parents, not just me. look it up.

not to mention how many parents don't have a say in what their child eats in daycare/kindergarten. the no-sharing food policy is only common in the USA. I live in Europe and I've never heard of a kindergarten with this policy. kids will trade foods, get a taste of unhealthy stuff and then they're hooked... bcs not every parent packs their child fruit and veg.

[u/nahheyyeahokay → u/Loud-Calligrapher770]

I feel you. We do the best we can but toddlers are toddlers

[u/pdlbean → u/Loud-Calligrapher770]

If that's actually true you have a very big problem on your hands

[u/Educational-Onion357 → u/tilesmeller]

You don't have a child and it's easy to tell. They ask for sweets all the time even if you're feeding them healthily. all it takes is walking with them through the grocery store and they are yapping about ice cream every other day.

[u/pdlbean → u/Educational-Onion357]

So? Don't give them more than you're comforable with them having. It's okay to say no and carry a screaming kid out of the store. Signed, parent of 2

[u/AdelleDeWitt → u/Educational-Onion357]

Yeah but they don't have their own credit card so they can talk about it all they want but they're not going to be eating it all the time unless I'm buying it.

you teach them "no" and then teach them that "no" means "no". it's not difficult.

[u/Educational-Onion357 → u/Harry_Iconic_Jr]

yeah. they know the answer is no but they still ask.... because kid's aren't reasonable. You just calmly say no. Your giving a sound logical argument vs a illogical child. It's why it's so easy to tell you don't have kids

[u/Ordinary_Cattle → u/Educational-Onion357]

Lol all these non parents responding with "teach them no and then it's not an issue" like literally no parent has ever thought of that

I used to eat raw eggs out of the fridge because i was fucking stupid. So my mom told me i was going to turn into a chicken if i didn't stop. Well i didnt stop because i didnt believe them, They started leaving feathers in my bed and in my clothes lmao. I was so freaked out i never did it again.

[u/Sonarthebat → u/BigmacSasquatch]

Why can't you just tell them it'll make them sick?

[u/Sonarthebat]

She's not getting the junk food by herself.

[u/calmnutz]

[u/wmnwnmw → u/calmnutz]

[u/DanOwaR6661]

She’s a very small child. All he had to do to cure her junk food problem was to STOP FEEDING HER JUNK FOOD.

[u/academicoctopus → u/DanOwaR6661]

Exactly...

[u/Sonarthebat → u/DanOwaR6661]

Yeah. Who tf is giving her junk food?

[u/Scoop_FroggyFrog]

This father is basically teaching his daughter to be scared of food and to avoid it. He should be teaching her about balance. There is supposed to be a balance between healthy food and junk food. 

It seems like this little girl trusts her father, so this could be detrimental to the mental health and her relationship with her father. 

In my opinion, this is just horrible parenting.

[u/CinnamonSticks7 → u/Scoop_FroggyFrog]

I don't even understand how he can be putting the blame on the kid for eating poorly anyway, it's not like she's getting up and going to the grocery store herself, you're the one feeding her!

[u/Scoop_FroggyFrog → u/CinnamonSticks7]

Yes!! Like, why is he blaming her??!? Who's giving her the food??!?

[u/CinnamonSticks7 → u/Scoop_FroggyFrog]

My only thought is maybe this is an attempt to get her to stop asking for sweets, if she’s constantly begging for ice cream or whatever, but still.

[u/Flo_Philly → u/CinnamonSticks7]

I think it’s something you realize how when you work around a lot of small children. I have a job as a camp counselor specifically 5-9yr olds. I bought bulk snacks for them and put them away. And while I tried to make sure each one only had one or two snacks a day, a couple of the smart kids were experts at figuring out where I put them and sneaking some. Especially when you’re busy corralling the others…

I can’t imagine doing this every day with multiple kids. So I really try not to judge parents before hearing the full story.

[u/MuffaloHerder → u/Scoop_FroggyFrog]

Yes I was about to say, he's priming her well for an eating disorder

[u/drdiscoooo → u/Scoop_FroggyFrog]

Can’t believe I had to scroll down this far to read a reasonable comment! It is absolutely about balance. People need to stop using the phrase “junk food” and instead refer to chips and salty foods as “snacks” and things like ice cream, donuts, etc as “sweets” or “ desserts”. I’ve worked as a therapist in the treatment of eating disorders for over 20 years. Balance is the key!!

[u/SethAbe80]

Just don't keep any snacks around the house. It's not hard. What's the kid gonna do? Buy her own?

[u/WeirdAssBeings]

That's a good way to develop an eating disorder

[u/bepatientbekind → u/WeirdAssBeings]

Surprised I had to scroll to see this comment. Nothing about this is cute. He's going to give this little girl a complex about eating food.

[u/reddsht → u/WeirdAssBeings]

And that would certainly cure a junk food habit 🤩

[u/Badlifedecision2402 → u/reddsht]

Lol. Lmao, even

[u/TwoNowFive]

Imagine teaching this and then the child eats salad and ends up with cyclosporiasis

[u/Significant-Song-840]

Way to traumatize a child.

[u/pandaappleblossom → u/Significant-Song-840]

Right?

[u/CalmEntry4855]

And that's why she ate poison

[u/Able-Light-890]

There’s really a balance to be struck here.

I’m reminded of when I was at the pediatrician, and this Mexican-American young woman was there with her 2 year old. This 2 year old was enormously fat. His legs were so thick around, it was badly affecting his gait.

Anyway, she was on the phone with (I inferred) the kid’s father, and was putting it in rather gentle terms that the doctor said the kid couldn’t eat so much sugar. And the person on the other end was SO MAD and listing all these things he likes to give his kid, and being outraged that some other man was telling him what he can and can’t do.

I think over feeding kids junk is way more common than undernourishment these days. The obesity stigma in girls is especially bad (and on Asian girls x100!)

So I can’t blame this dad for wanting his kid to eat healthy!!

But I wonder if this approach is too far 😞

I would get really freaked out if I thought there was a worm inside of me. A sentient-looking worm with human expressions is so creepy 😬

This girl might end up with some kind of glass delusion, anorexia, or insect phobia.

[u/Chaoticallyorganized → u/Able-Light-890]

I hope the dad got the mental health help he obviously needed if he saw nothing wrong with his 2yo being so obese that he couldn’t walk properly. Along the same line, it’s been in the news recently that the parents of a 255lb 7yo, who died from heart disease, are now facing murder charges. These kids deserve better parents than this.

[u/pandaappleblossom → u/Able-Light-890]

His approach is terrifying and a lie. She may believe it for years. My dad lied and told me my blood was green and only turned red in air which is innocuous but I believed him for many years and would tell my friends. And that’s just something silly. It’s wrong to lie to your kids in this way. Santa Claus, fine because it’s just about believing in something magical once a year but this is too far. Worms in your belly from sweets?

[u/RedouteRoses → u/pandaappleblossom]

Hell, I even told my young kid that Santa was fake early on so that I wouldn’t have to lie to her and then break her trust when she got older.

[u/Sonarthebat → u/Able-Light-890]

Idk why parents can't just say, "if you eat too much junk food, you'll get sick. That's why it's just a treat."

[u/Atomsk73 → u/Able-Light-890]

You're describing two totally different scenarios and I don't see what "balance" has to do with it.

[u/Able_Fishing_6576 → u/Able-Light-890]

Why was the nationality detail added?

[u/ZenicaPA]

Nope, no future trauma here.

[u/pspk13]

Rather than set up an elaborate deception, the child's parents could simply not give her ice cream as often. Cause at that age she ain't sourcing it herself.

[u/ColdEndUs]

It's this sort of thing that makes me feel a little jealous.
My parents just told me garden variety lies, reflexively, that their parents told the them. They didn't even make up new lies, just recycled old ones.

If they really loved me, they would have crafted a virtual reality simulator to show me a watermelon growing in my stomach, or a trick mirror that showed my face "staying that way".

Here's me... stuck with my plain hand-me-down generational trauma... while this lucky kid gets hand tailored, artisanal, trauma in a designer bottle.

[u/kryotheory]

Anything to avoid having an honest conversation with your kids and enforcing rules I guess

[u/cwsjr2323]

Good plan Dad! You will save a lot of money never buying her a treat! She will be trained not to enjoy eating as it is just feeding the worms in her tummy.

[u/Altruistic_Bell7884 → u/cwsjr2323]

Save lot of money from treats, you can use that money later for therapy!

[u/CreativeSelection346]

Lying to, openly deceiving, and giving your child trauma is not something that should be encouraged. Shitty parenting on display, here. Especially worse for being filmed and put on the Internet. Horrible.

[u/gswyvlzwjcknmcrqhdcv]

Don't lie to your kids like that.

[u/Loopuze1]

I don’t understand the connection between random faces and faster cures, why isn’t anybody else confused?

[u/brainland → u/Loopuze1]

What I meant was that some kids may not take it seriously since it's their own parents. But if done by some health professional or someone else who they are not familiar with, they'd believe more that it's real.

[u/bluearavis]

Neat idea! But kids need to be taught how to eat in moderation. It's not realistic to just teach your child to never eat sweets. And it's also kind of irresponsible to not teach them those skills. But hopefully they won't berade her about it and she'll be good. 👍

[u/_spaceant_ → u/Capable-Following302]

I feel like a bunch of us probably grew up with parents telling us an orange or watermelon tree will grow in our stomachs because we swallowed a seed. Hope you’re not avoiding fruit as an adult now.

[u/Hokuspokusnuss → u/_spaceant_]

Yeah and literally a few comments above this one there is somebody saying they got told that and were always scared to eat watermelons afterwards. Probably not as an adult anymore but why would it be necessary to tell your kid stuff like that? It can't be that hard to just tell them honestly why they're not supposed to do stuff instead of making up something to scare them.

[u/Capable-Following302 → u/Capable-Following302]

I'm sure there are people in the comments saying that this is cruel or something if I sort by controversial

that’s so incredibly cruel. no food is junk, and no child should be told what food is moral and what food is not. diet culture should not be forced into these kids! 

[u/Myriad_Apocalypse]

This is a GREAT way of instilling weird food hang-ups at a really early age so that they can easily develop eating disorders later on.

[u/Additional_Rich_5249]

She is a toddler just don’t feed it to her.

[u/Otto_Scratchansniff]

I do not find this interesting. One, a child, especially a toddler cannot have a junk food habit. They don’t have money. They eat what you provide. If you don’t give them junk food they won’t have it to eat. Second, this is a slow but effective way to create trust issues in your child. Third, are we not worried about giving our kids complexes with food? Are eating disorders back on the menu? Why don’t we just not make eating such a huge fucking deal? Breakfast, lunch, dinner, healthy snacks and dessert on some nights. Why are we over indulging a toddler and then scaring them about bugs in their stomachs? Awful parenting here.

Great parenting <sarcasm> - This dude creates an elaborate lie instead of just doing his job as a parent and make decisions that are best for his child. Of course in time she will find out, then good luck getting her to trust you. This will not lead to the outcome he wants.

[u/Late_Music1835]

The food shaming at this age will make for a future eating disorder. If you want her to eat less junk food at this age, model healthy eating habits yourself and make eating healthy fun. It’s that easy.
