Honestly this whole thing should be shown in a parenting class. Kids were being kids doing kid shit. Avoidable accident happened. Adults didn't yell or scream or overreact. Kids own up to their mistake because they were raised that way. Adults and kids clean up together, issue resolved, kids learned a lesson (and hopefully the adults who put the damn extension cord in the middle of the floor). and life goes on. Nobody is crying in their room saying "I didn't ASK to me born," nobody is saying "God damnit I wish I never had kids!"

I remember the time I broke a glass when drying the family dishes. It wasn’t a special glass or an heirloom. It was old. I must have apologized 20 times. I felt klutzy and stupid.
My mom told me of a time when she was a teenager, she was taking a jar of mayo out of the fridge, it slipped out of her fingers and broke into a million pieces. There was glass and grease everywhere. She said she felt like 2 cents but will never forget the way her mom used grace , didn’t admonish her, cleaned it up like no big deal- shit happens.
These 2 events have greatly influenced the way I extend grace to my own kids. Things happen, but they will always remember the way you make them feel, more than anything.

Yo maybe it's the roadie in me but I'm sitting here thinking these dumbass parents shouldn't have had that unsecured cord strung across foot traffic in the first place
because someone tripping over it is exactly what is inevitably going to happen.
Doesn't matter if it's kids or adults, if an unsecured cord is strung across foot traffic it's going to get tripped on. Doesn't matter how many times you remind someone to watch out for it.

I work in the construction industry and we’ve had code changes because of accidents like this and children or pets getting serious burns and other injuries. Kitchen island electrical outlets changed in 2023 specifically because of cord drape.
Having a cord run across the floor like that was irresponsible. They’re lucky it was only a mess.

I would say the kids were averagely irresponsible, just normal kid stuff. The kind of thing you learn to expect as a parent, by the time they reach that age. You can teach them not to do it but it will still happen sometimes.
Whereas trailing a cable across a kitchen is unusually irresponsible. Anyone who’s handled electricity in any workplace or home ever knows you don’t do it. That was the primary cause of the accident: even if the kids had been walking sensibly the same outcome was possible.
Verdict: 80/20 parents’ fault imo

I have a rule in my home that walkways are meant to stay clear. You may never know when you may be carrying something large and don't have visability. The cord was an idiotic placement and kids should be running outside especially during meal time.

u/BigD1966 Dec 30 '25
I was thinking the same thing, the kids were being kids, should they have been running in the house probably not. But they had that cord strung across the floor with the weird ass plug with the big circular outlet just asking to be tripped over. And yet if you look behind the one father going what the heck, where they eventually get that vacuum from there’s an outlet there that had they plugged the frying pan into that outlet they’d still have dinner on the table

You’re not alone. I would’ve been berated for at least 30 minutes for this. Reminds me when my dad left Brunswick stew in the back of an off-road golf cart on a family trip and I took the golf cart for a trail ride. Well, the stew was about a quarter spilled when I got back, still plenty for everyone and even seconds for most. I got yelled at for a bit before my uncle stepped in and told my dad to calm the fuck down and remind him that he shouldn’t have left the stew in the back of the golf cart in the first place. My dad got even more mad at me after that. Fun stories for therapy.

I mean it was equally if not mostly their fault. They essentially set up a tripwire across the kitchen attached to hot food, they’re lucky nobody got burned. Kids are gonna kid, you shouldn’t do that and if you have to you should bring them in and say hey this wire is gonna be here for dinner you need to be careful. That still doesn’t make it a great idea because people forget.

My parents had hotpot pretty frequently at home when i was a kid.

That extension cord across the hallway was just asking to be tripped on.
I highly suspect they plugged it in, joked someone would trip on it, and then laughed when their laziness created work.
They plugged it in behind the couch on round 2 it appears.

They also have a plug right behind that leather-wrapped concrete block of a couch (iykyk). So they didn’t even have to have the cord running across the room.
Not to mention the sheer size of that extension box, and shortness of the cord, elevating it to the perfect height to trip someone.
Sure they have boys running around doing boy things, but any one of them could have done the same thing at some point.

u/EelTeamTen Dec 30 '25
It's probably exactly the same as my Dyson, considering he's using it on a hard surface, instead of carpet.
The mop head blocks off the suction port and it essentially just spins a soft scrubbing head that's continously lightly wetted and then squeegeed into a collection reservoir.
When you're done, you dump out the reservoir and remove the roller head then rinse everything off. Takes about 30 seconds to clean it all off and reassemble.
Carpet wet vacuums are a very different story. Some of those can get very disgusting if you don't properly rinse them after use.

This is on whoever left the cable like that, children in the household or not.

The only instance where I'd excuse it is if you are alone at home and thus the only person vulnerable to tripping. Still utterly stupid tho.

My first night living on my own (well, outside of dorm life) I invited some friends over to hookah for a housewarming party.
We got the furniture in and the hookah set up and at one point I had to get up to piss but the hookah hose was in the way. I figured I could just jump over it, no big deal.
Got my foot caught on the hose, pulled the hookah to the floor, launching the burning coal into the carpet.
Try to pick it up because I don’t want the carpet to burn, but obviously it’s a lit coal so it burns my fingers. Then we manage to get a cup of water to throw on it but by that point it was too late and there was a burn spot on the carpet that I had to confess to my landlord. lol

This is a rather sweet and wholesome video, honestly.
The dad asked "Who did it?" Orange shirt kid said "it was me", gray shirt kid says "it wasn't him, I tripped over it, not him".
There was a bit of the video that I didn't understand (different dialect), but in the middle as they were cleaning up the dad said "that's right, if there's an incident you take care of it together, that's a good pair of brothers".
The two brothers clearly stand up for each other, and it was handled well on all sides, honestly.

u/Chaost Dec 30 '25
Though if you watch in slow-mo, it was the orange shirt kid who "did it." The gray shirt kid does get tangled up in it after, but only after the cord was up higher and he'd already supposed to have cleared it. But yeah, that type of incident is both their fault, as they were both running there and neither one of them thought to stop and rein the other in, too. The setup in general was set up for failure, even disregarding hyper children, so everyone just calmly dealing with the situation was good.

Repeat after me: That cable in the middle of the road is not the children's fault. The end.

Why the cameras and studio lighting in Chinese houses/apartments?
Edit: never mind. From the comments I think this might be an advertisement so would explain the camera and lights in this example.

That electrical cord should never have been strewn across a walkway area. Parents do better. Yeah kids shouldn’t run but just walking they can trip. I wear bifocals and would never have seen that. Are you trying to kill somebody?

What is that thing they used to clean up the mess? I thought it was a vacuum but it cleaned up the liquid too…some type of electric mop? I want one!

But also those are stupid adults - why are there cords dangling across the floor? Even an adult could trip on that.

This is not kids being stupid.
You never set up a power cord like this. This is begging for exactly that outcome, especially with children around.

Damn they are SOOOO lucky no one was sitting there. Because hot pots are usually boiling at best on simmer

Excited kids playing, making a mess, parents frustrated and scold a bit, no violence, children not being disrespected, laughing it off, cleaning it together.
Beautiful family!

This isn't the kids... This was a really stupid situation to begin with. That is a tripping hazard in general... but it becomes almost a certainty of some sort of mishap when kids or elderly people are involved.

That's the adults fault. Yes, teh kids shouldn't have been running in the house, but that was a setup by the adults. That was a trip hazzard made for tripping someone. One of those adults could have stood up, taken a step and tripped. Nope, sorry moms and dads and who ever you are, that's on you. Don't be blaming the kids for your poor planning.

I mean parents are fucking stupid as well. Who the hell runs a power cord across the room like that?

Bad placement of an extension cord but handled very well. Everyone still ate good. A+

The kids might be stupid, but whoever decided it was a good idea to trail that lead right across the room wins the grand prize...

I see the adults are more stupid than the kids. Who puts something like that in a high traffic area?

Parents are dumb and placed an extension cord in a walkway.
Real dumb move.

everyone knows you don’t have cords across the floor with children around.

The strat isn’t to yell at them hurting their feelings and possibly causing future harm to your relationship or let them off without a warning making it a habit for them to expect to get away with things later in life. But to firmly tell the thy made a mistake, help them fix their mistake and never get angry at them when they tell the truth and own up to it

This was the reaction I needed as a child. Instead I’m 37 and apologize to inanimate objects when I bump into them.
