- [Narrator] From their first
giggle to their first words to the first time riding a bike, kids are pretty adorable. Well, that is, some of the time. Hate to break it to you,
but for the most part kids are little bundles of terror. Don't believe me? Well, stay tuned. Seriously. From monumental messes to getting stuck in the oddest of places to racking up sky-high credit card bills. Here are some moments where parents didn't know whether to laugh or cry. (bright music) Kids are constantly getting themselves into all kinds of trouble. And I'm a man of justice which is why I've taken the liberty of creating my own court of justice where I'll be weeding out
the guilty and not guilty. So without further ado,
order in the court, order in the court. All right first up, we have a mother accusing her son, Jace, of taking snacks without her permission. The defendant has pleaded not guilty but I'll be the judge of that. Jace, did you or did you not
take snacks without permission? - No. - [Mother] No, you didn't have a snack? - I did not have a snack. - [Mother] Are you lying to me? - I'm not lying. - [Mother] You didn't have candy? - I not have candy. - [Mother] No, you didn't have candy? - I did not. - [Mother] What I tell
you about lying to mommy? - You don't like liars? - [Mother] So are you lying? - Yeah. - [Mother] You had candy, right? Hmm? - I don't know if I did. - [Mother] You don't know
if you did? You lying again? - No. - [Mother] You had candy, Jace. - [Narrator] Okay, Jace,
no further questions. Based on what I've heard, not to mention the mysterious blue stain that is present around your mouth, I hereby find you guilty
of first degree snack theft and you are therefore sentenced
to life on the naughty step. Take him away, boys. Next up we have another
case of snack thievery. Tyrell Fulwood, a father
from North Carolina, is here today to try and
prove that it was in fact his son TJ who ate the cupcakes. Now, Mr. Fulwood, I believe
you've brought video evidence of the crime scene with you? Let's review the footage. - No, no.
- [Father] Who did this TJ? - No, no, no, no. - [Father] Did you do this? - No.
- [Father] Huh? - No. - [Father] You didn't do this, TJ? - [Child] Yes you did. - [Father] Who got to them cupcakes, TJ? - No. - [Father] Did you do it? - No. - [Father] You didn't do this? - No. - [Father] You sure?
This is your last chance. - No.
- [Father] Are you sure? Did you do it? - No.
- [Child] Yes. - [Father] So you didn't
push this chair over here, climb on there and get them cupcakes? - No. - [Narrator] Hm. In all my minutes of being a courtroom judge, I have never seen someone
looking quite so guilty. TJ, do you have any other defense? - No. - [Narrator] Well, then
this court finds you guilty of first degree snack theft. (gavel strikes)
Next! Okay, it says here we have five
year old Nala-Joy from Texas who is here to sue her
mother, Miss Shaakira Brandon on account of being a secret space alien. Now, Nala-Joy, would you
please come to the stand and tell us why you believe your mother is an undercover alien? And please remember, you're under oath. - [Mother] Why are you crying? (Nala-Joy sobs) And what do you think that means about me? - You're an alien! (mother laughs) - [Mother] Mommy, look, look, look. It's not meaning I'm an alien. These are the places that
mommy has traveled to and this is just a picture
of the earth as I travel. You scared of mommy now? Come here. - [Narrator] So let me get this straight. You saw a picture of the earth from space in your mother's passport and assumed this meant she was an alien. Well, based on the evidence provided, I really have no other option
than to declare the defendant guilty of being an undercover alien. Kid logic prevails. All right, court adjourned for today, but rest assured, today's venture through shocking moments of kid chaos is only just beginning. Having children sure isn't cheap. In fact, in the US, the average price of just delivering a baby
can cost upwards of $10,800. And raising it to adulthood
costs an unbelievable $300,000 in total, according to
the Brookings Institution. But the cost of feeding,
clothing, educating and enriching a child is
just the tip of the iceberg and that is, if they get
their grubby little mitts on your Amex card. Allow me to explain. 2020 wasn't exactly an
incredible year for anyone, though it was especially tough
for one Australian family when their six-year-old son Kristian, accidentally made a few in-app purchases using their bank card. As he innocently played the
popular game Roblox on his iPad, Kristian didn't realize
that treating his characters to virtual food 501 times would digest into a stomach
churning $8,000 bill. In fact, it wasn't until
the bank alerted his parents of the unusual activity, that they learned of
their hefty investment in Roblox virtual food. Of course, they attempted
to dispute the transactions, pleading to Apple that their
son had no comprehension of his actions, but it wasn't enough to get their money back. That was, until the
story reached the press and Apple suddenly conceded,
awarding them a full refund. Sadly though, not every unlucky individual receives that level of corporate
public relation pandering. Um, I mean, generosity. In 2021, Jennifer Bryant,
a mother from Brooklyn, received an unexpected Amazon parcel. An Amazon parcel containing no less than 918 SpongeBob Squarepants popsicles. And no, this wasn't some strange gesture from a secret admirer, but rather her four year old son Noah, who had logged into her Amazon account and ordered 51 cases of
SpongeBob frozen treats. All in all, Noah's online
sweet treat shopping came in at a not so sweet $2,618. Jennifer pleaded with Amazon for a refund but that was sadly turned down. Needless to say, her
stockpile of frozen desserts left her in financial ruin. We've all been there. However, a good friend decided to post Jennifer and Noah's story
on her Instagram page and set up a GoFundMe
page, which in the end, thanks to floods of generous donations, toppled to over $25,115. Meaning Noah's nautical nonsense somehow turned a $22,000 profit. Well played, Noah, well played. But even when they're not
costing you an arm and a leg, kids may wind up costing you
something much more valuable. Your freedom. But I don't just mean
preventing you having time seeing your pals and play
your favorite video games. Allow me to explain. In 2016, six-year-old Robbie
Richardson, from Massachusetts, was riding along in the
car with his old man. Everything was fine. Well, that is, until
Robbie witnessed his father do the unthinkable. He ran a red light. Outraged by his dad's criminal behavior, Robbie did what any good law abiding six-year-old citizen would do. He dialed 911, alerted the authorities and ratted on his own father. Robbie even went as far as
to describe his dad's car so the police would know
who exactly to arrest. After his brave testimony,
the police responder asked Robbie to pass the phone to his dad. Robbie's dad, Mike, spoke with the police, who were really more
confused than concerned, and he apologized. Thankfully, it turns
out that six year olds aren't all that well versed
in the rules of the road. Mike explained that he'd
actually done a right turn at a red light, which is
perfectly legal in the US of A. So all in all, there was no harm done. Well, that is, aside from
Robbie's family values. Turning on your own father? For shame. These days, self-care is all the rage. And rightly so. God knows it ain't easy
keeping up this appearance. But enough about me and my
silky smooth spherical body. Here are some kids who tried
their hand at self-care. To kick us off, there's
nothing quite like winding down in a hot bubble bath
at the end of the day. Only these two tykes took
the term 'bubble bath' to the extreme. Take a look. (kids laugh) - [Mother] Oh, geez, it's... I can't stop it. I can't stop it. The jets are drying out and
I can't frigging stop it. Oh my God. - It's the bubbles (indistinct). - [Mother] This is a nightmare. - [Narrator] Children pouring
in too much bubble bath cream plus bathtub water jets equals an unstoppable bubble mountain and some very amused kids. I mean, you can't deny that
this does look kind of fun... just not for the mom who's gonna
have to clean that mess up. Moving on to another
form of self-care now. It's been clinically
proven that moisturizing can reduce the signs of aging. But this next little lady has
gotten a very early headstart. Though her choice of moisturizer is... Well, see for yourself. (bright music) (kid laughs) Yep, that's yogurt. Nothing like fermented milk, sweetened with strawberry flavoring, to give you a young and vibrant glow. But here's the kicker: it actually might. It just so happens that yogurt has actually been proven to
be a great skin treatment across various legitimate studies. Due to it being rich in
probiotics, aka healthy bacteria, yogurt promotes healthy skin functioning, calms inflation, normalizes skin pH and improves overall
hydration and elasticity. Though I have an inkling several
rigorous academic studies probably weren't the reason
that this little lady was smothering herself in yogurt. Like many kids, she probably
just did the weird thing because simply, it felt good. A commendable approach to life indeed. That said, yogurt girl is a rookie compared to this next kid who evidently broke into the diaper cream and smothered herself from
head to toe in the stuff. Dang, stick a carrot on her nose and that's a terrifying
real life Olaf from Frozen. But if there is a pièce
de résistance of children failing to fully grasp how
to use self-care products, then this next one takes the prize. Back in 2020, a little girl
from the UK, Maisie Saward, noticed how her dad would
style his hair using gel. Idolizing him, one day she
crawled into the bathroom and got to gelling her own hair. Unfortunately though, what Maisie used wasn't hair gel at all. It was hair removal cream. Yep, just like that, Maisie
went from adorable to... Well, let's just say she
went from cute little girl to Chucky with a receding
hairline real quick. Let's move on from this
haunting image, shall we? If semi-bald little Maisie
wasn't enough to teach you that kids can get up to all kinds of crazy when you're not looking, then perhaps these next few will. Starting with TikTok Espo9er, who apparently left his
kid alone for a few moments and returned to... Well, it's probably
easier to just show you. - [Father] What in the
heck did you just do? Seriously? Unbelievable. I leave you for two seconds. - [Narrator] Uh, yeah. All I can say is that
if you were on the fence about having kids or not,
this may just sway you. Or catapult you over into the 'never in a million
years' side. Whichever. Though if that didn't do the trick, just get a load of this next one. One unlucky mom returned
to her living room to find that her mischievous children had cracked open a tub of
paint and got to doing a few, well, let's say home un-improvements. From themselves to the
floor, couch and even TV, these two little terrors
did a thorough job of getting white paint everywhere. If I were their parent, I
definitely wouldn't be laughing. Thankfully, I'm not. Which means we can admit
this is absolutely hilarious. Look how proud the little guy looks. But it seems these kids
aren't the only ones who had a good time with a tub of paint. Yep. After a hard day's work, one father returned home only to find that his son was looking
a little more purple than when he'd last seen him. Apparently his sister thought
it might be a fun idea to paint him purple,
leaving him looking like he'd chowed down on some of Willy Wonka's magical
three-course dinner chewing gum. And sure, that purple is
gonna take some scrubbing. But he seems satisfied to be in a world of pure
imagination all the same. Since it's not exactly
possible for parents to always have their eyes on their kids, inventions such as baby
cameras certainly help. That said, they can't
really stop your child from being mischievous, but they can certainly
give you the evidence. Take for example this
little girl, Justice, who plans to bust her
little sister, Journey, out of the crib. The mission was simple, really. Journey would clamber up the rail, while her sister pushed
the chair to the side, providing a safe landing spot. Let mission 'bust out of bed' commence. - Get out, Journey. Okay. That's it, that's it. Get down. Get down. Put your weight down here. That's it. That's it. Okay, now put your other
(indistinct) there. I got you, Journey. I got you, I got you. Okay, Journey. (indistinct chatter) - [Narrator] And while you
have to admire their ingenuity, if their parents want to keep
them safe and sound in bed, they're gonna have to take
a few more precautions. Perhaps, I don't know,
a laser security system? Moving on. For many men, their car
is their pride and joy, perhaps sometimes even more
than their own children. So it seems understandable that this next guy might have
had a tear or two in his eye when he discovered his daughter had left him a cute little
note on the side of his car. Because nothing says 'I love my dad' quite like literally carving it into his car with a screwdriver. Or if you're anything like
this next little girl, you might simply write your name. I'm not sure if this was intended to be some kind of assertion of dominance, but it's kind of working. If I were to write a
message on anyone's car, it'd probably be to 'like
and subscribe to be amazed'. For a regular dose of fun,
wacky content just like this. Now, if you've done that, why not join me in the next
section for more hilarious times when parents didn't know
whether to laugh or cry? Okay, so you've probably
heard parents say the phrase, "I need eyes in the back of my head". And while that generally
means they want to be able to see what kind of mischief their kids are getting up to behind their back, it can also apply for
when mommy is practising her finest dance moves. (upbeat music) (they laugh) That poor little lady
didn't know what hit her. But everyone knows you
should never get in the way of a speeding booty.
(Minecraft 'oof' sound) These are lessons you just
have to learn the hard way, I guess. But there are some scenarios where even having eyes
in the back of your head wouldn't help. And this next situation is as good as any. One unlucky bride, Tanya, from Ireland, was enjoying her special moment as she walked down the aisle. However, unfortunately for
Tanya, there was a little hiccup that certainly made it a day to remember. Take a look. (ceremonial music) (crowd gasps) The worst part is, the diving
child wasn't even the bride's. He belonged to one of the guests. Safe to say, there's a
mother and a father out there deeply embarrassed that
their little hell-raiser made this bride's special
day about himself. Still, it's gotta be said that
fluffy-looking bridal dress does look quite enticing to leap into. Uh, you know what? Don't
tell the groom I said that. He may take it the wrong way. Jokes and all aside, it's
important to know the whereabouts of your child, as losing them can be one of the most
heartbreaking things a parent can go through. This is something Brooklyn
parent, Precious Granton, had to go through back in 2014, when her 11 year old son
Kareem suddenly disappeared. Panicked, Precious
launched a citywide search to find her son, but sadly, nothing. And that was until the fifth day, when Kareem was found at last. Where? Well, oddly enough,
on the New York subway, where it turned out he'd been
drifting around and sleeping for five days. I'm sure having her baby back
at home was the only thing that mattered to Precious. Though it turned out there
was actually a hilarious and strange reason behind
Kareem's disappearance. He'd decided to run away from
home with $10 to his name after being asked to
clean up the dog's poop. Among other household
tasks that he objected to. I mean, he clearly
didn't think it through, because the subway is way
grosser than picking up dog poop. Still, with absolutely no
evidence of parental abuse providing any darker
motivations to this journey, it really does seem
like this kid went AWOL purely to avoid his chores. You gotta respect that. And while Kareem Granton was seemingly on a mission for freedom, some kids seem to be on
a quest for the opposite, perplexingly getting themselves stuck in all sorts of hilarious spots. For starters, this
disgruntled little fellow managed to clog the toilet with... Well, himself. You have to praise him
for his drive to explore, not to mention the impossible
flexibility of his legs, but I can only pray he
didn't use the toilet before taking a dunk. Looking a little flushed there, champ. Up next, we have a toddler
doing what toddlers do best. Toddling. Only this little toddler decided to toddle through some freshly laid
cement, ruining hours of work. Now there's no getting away with this one. There's concrete evidence
of who the culprit is. Now let's take a look at this next kid. Looking at her face alone, can you guess where in the
world she might be stuck? Here's the reveal. She's stuck in a bucket. And while I hate to make fun of a kid, it's hard to deny how uncannily her face, squashed by the plastic toy
container, resembles a blobfish. Unfortunately for the blobfish though, its facial tissues can't be fixed by simply removing a bucket from its head. Moving on, in 2018, one four year old boy got stuck in a much more baffling
situation, as shown here. Which raised the simple question, how? Well it turned out he'd decided
to try and cheat the system by crawling up the prize shaft
of the claw crane machine to forage some of those precious toys. Only getting out proved
much harder than getting in. And alas, he found himself imprisoned. Luckily, firefighters arrived at the scene and had the boy out in no time, although it did cost him a few quarters. It's no secret that babies
can be pretty gross. After all, they don't know any better. So peeing, pooping and
puking is to be expected. Nevertheless, some of
the gross things kids do is quite frankly, on another level. For example, in 2020, a little
boy from Indiana got creative and wanted to show his mom
the rainbow he'd painted. Only for reasons you'll soon see, this rainbow had just one distinct color. - [Mother] Logan, what did you do? - Poo. - [Mother] What'd you do with the poop? - Made a rainbow. - [Mother] Made a rainbow with your poop? - Yeah. - [Mother] Wow, that's beautiful. (kid chatters) - [Narrator] Oh, it's like
a Renaissance painting. Except it's actually fresh butt
mud smeared across the wall. You know how these creative types can be. Shockingly, the little artist's mom didn't seem all that bothered about the steamy fudge pop decor. I guess her positive
attitude is to be admired. But if that didn't gross you out, I'm pretty sure this next clip will. In fact, I'm issuing an
official gross out warning. In 2021, a Canadian couple were attempting to have a photo shoot
with their newborn baby. 'Attempting' being the operative word, as the celebration of the miracle of life suddenly came to an unexpected halt. - [Kid] Don't you dare poop. - [Photographer] Here we go. And then close your eyes. Oh my God. (they laugh) I'm sorry, I can help with it. - With a dollop of fresh liquid poop and a ruined white shirt, the otherwise beautiful
shoot was brought to an end. And perhaps the worst part about it was the fact that the
diabolical little baby even lets off a smug grin in perfect sync with its dirty protest. Ah, ain't life beautiful? Not as bad as that was. If you ask me, this next
clip is arguably worse. While spending some time with his uncle, this baby decided to unleash a beast. Take a look at the clip
and see what happens. (he laughs) - He likes your shirt. - It sounds like he said Padawan. - [Uncle] Are you Yoda? - You smiling and be like this
and then just (vomit noise). Ohh. Yo, why would you film that, bro? - [Narrator] Now obviously
you should mentally prepare for some mess while holding a baby. But given the speed of that
sudden disgusting explosion of baby spew almost outta nowhere, I'd say the kid's uncle's
swift exit strategy is pretty understandable. And by nature, kids are
pretty much just accidents waiting to happen. Or like me, just an accident. Anyway, point is, developing
brains can often get themselves into silly or even worse,
dangerous situations. In fact, the brain isn't fully developed until around age 25. So it's not uncommon to see
anyone from toddler to teen getting themselves into
questionable situations. Like, for example, this
kid playing on a slide. Or should I say, attempting to. - Watch me, Ma. (head knocks loudly) - [Narrator] That kid's head
made such a percussive sound, it's only a matter of time before someone samples
it into a trap beat. (trap music plays) He's not the only kid
whose embarrassing mishaps left him with a few bumps though. Just take a look at this next little guy attempting to ride his bike down a hill. Doesn't take a GPS system to
see where this one is going. (bins crash) Yeah, that's gonna hurt. It would seem traveling
at a terminal velocity affects a kid's ability to not steer uncontrollably leftward. But at least he had his
helmet on. Safety first. One parent who didn't put safety first is the guy in this next clip, who for some reason
left his pressure washer in the capable hands of
his three-year-old child. If you didn't already know,
these things can be so powerful that they can cause some
pretty serious skin damage. But thankfully, it
wasn't the three-year-old on the receiving end
of the pressure washer. In this video of irresponsibility and accidental reverse psychology, the kid was the one dealing out the pain. - [Father] Down, Jack. On the ground. Yeah but not on daddy. - On daddy? - [Father] No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, Jack, Jack. It hurts. (Father yells and laughs) - [Narrator] Luckily, going
by the dad's childlike giggle, we can assume there are no
injuries in this instance. Though let this be a reminder. Do not give your three-year-old
a pressure washer. That's like the first thing they teach you in parenting school. But even when kids aren't playing
with industrial machinery, their toys can be pretty hazardous. Just check out this mom
that got quite the eye full when her one year-old son
was playing a baseball game. - [Mother] Okay, I won't...
(ball crashes) - [Narrator] Did somebody
say action replay? - [Mother] Okay, I won't...
(ball crashes) - [Narrator] All right,
just one more time. - [Mother] Okay, I won't...
(ball crashes) - [Narrator] Oh, mom. Might I suggest you try
catching with your hands and not your face? As we saw earlier, the first
rule of parenting school is no pressure washers. Second rule, no wireless earbuds. What with babies tendencies to try to eat absolutely everything, small objects are an
irresistible forbidden delicacy for our tiny human pals. But it would seem, even for kids who've already passed their toddler years, small objects still retain
some of their culinary allure. Back in 2020, Kiara Stroud,
a mother from Atlanta, learned this after she
gifted her seven year old son some Apple AirPods for Christmas, because of course, these days, seven year olds require
premium priced audio devices to listen to Baby Shark. Anyway, things took a turn for the worse when the boy decided to hold
one of the AirPods in his mouth and accidentally swallowed it right down. A visit to the emergency room and an x-ray would reveal the device
was just sitting there in the boy's gut. But don't worry, there was no danger. The doctors were assured that
the AirPod would, let's say, continue its voyage through
the digestive system, through to the other side.
(plopping sound) So if you're of the
belief that kids of today are only listening to crappy music, well the inevitable
aftermath of that story is your very literal proof. You're welcome. And on that tuneful note,
that's it for today. Still want kids? Yeah, me neither. But let me know any of your
own funny tales of child chaos down in the comments anyway. And as always, thanks for watching.
