Do not disrespect your parents — you just might pay for it with your electronic devices.
One teenager learned this after she talked back to her mother, and her father stepped in to disciplinary action to the extreme.
In a TikTok video that has been viewed 11 million times, a strict father doesn’t hesitate to show his daughter what happens when she disrespects her parents.
As she lies in bed with her open laptop propped across from her, her father bursts into her bedroom.
“You told your mom that school is for losers, and it’s not your responsibility to clean your room?” the angry dad says in disbelief.
“She had to clean your room. How many chances do I have to give you? Every time I give you a chance you go back and do the same thing.”
The man leans across his daughter’s bed and reaches for her laptop, before he proceeds to break it in half, tossing it back to the girl and telling her, “you can keep that.”
He then grabs her cell phone and slams it to the ground repeatedly. The father’s breaking spree of electronic devices doesn’t end there.
Before heading out of the bedroom, he turns back around to kick his daughter’s flat-screen TV propped up in front of her bed. He takes the TV off of its stand before throwing it to the ground and kicking it a second time.
“Look at that and [remember it] every time you say something to her [your mother],” the man warns before leaving his daughter’s bedroom, as the teenager sits in silence.
“YESSSSSSS! The kids nowadays think they are so darn entitled! Good for you dad!!” one user commented.
“They want all that stuff but they can’t clean the room. The parents are not their servants,” another user wrote.
“Sometimes parents should teach their children discipline
and this father is doing the right thing,” another user believed.
“That is abuse, maybe not physical but it’s going to cause trauma and it’s not going to do anything but make sure that they are not open and honest,” one user commented.
“So, you’re teaching your kid NOT TO BE DISRESPECTFUL
by DISRESPECTING THEIR PROPERTY?” another user pointed out.
“Say bye to ever meeting your grandchildren…” another user wrote.
“Relationships built on fear and trauma can only lead to hateful ones,” another user warned.
Other users noted that the man most likely bought at least a few of his daughter’s electronics, and was wasting his own money in the end.
