  It is also possible that the fictional 9yo anon didn’t have a firm grasp on physics, the wisdom not to endanger an animal for their own entertainment, nor the awareness that they didn’t understand how actual parachutes work

  (couldn’t be me, at that age I had a drivers license, a stable job and the ability to vote)

  The dad on the other hand…

    Only thing the dad did wrong is set a bad example by getting caught laughing. Don’t they say comedy is tragedy sped up?

      Personally I wouldn’t immediately lmao if I learned that my child had killed an animal hours prior, but yeah, I wouldn’t go as far as accusing him of being a psychopath either

        It’d be highly context sensitive for me. I had a horrific hamster accident as a kid myself, so I might laugh out of pure unprocessed trauma.

      or with distance. like slipping in the mud, that’s a tragedy. now tripping someone and seeing them slip in the mud, that’s comedy gold.

        Exactly. It’s very human to find mirth in any misfortune that we have no emotional connection to.

    You’re skipping the first part of my statement. I can tell you didn’t own an hamster either.

    Lets say the hamster successfully parachuted down safely to the ground outside of a 4 story building. Hamsters can run quickly and squeeze into impossibly small places. There is a good chance the hamster, now unattended, would run away and escape. Hamster owners know this.

    Here’s a perfect example from a random youtube search. Hamster running away outside. 7 second. Thats how long it took for the unattended hamster to disappear into the underbrush. In this clip the owner was right there and able to recapture the hamster. A 9 year old would not be able to traverse 4 flights of stairs in under 10 seconds.

    A 9 year hamster owner knows this too.

      I did own a hamster, when I was 6 years old.
      I also didn’t know shit because, I was 6 years old,
      and I don’t know about the challenges of chasing a hamster (which has something to do with yeeting it out of the window, somehow?) because I didn’t yeet a hamster out of the window,
      and even if I did I wouldn’t remember it well because I was 6 years old.

      What kind of child were you at either of those ages, sheldon_cooper@lemmy.world?

        I didn’t get my first hamster until I was 8. Anon apparently has one at 9.

        I also didn’t know shit, because I was 6 years old,

        Sure, but we’re talking about a kid 50% older than 6 years old. There’s a lot of cognitive growth between those 3 years. I don’t think you’d say you were as stupid at 9 as you were at 6 are you?

        and I don’t know about the challenges of chasing a hamster (which has something to do with yeeting it out of the window, somehow?)

        I don’t know why I have to walk you through this, but okay: If anon at 9 assumed that the hamster would safely parachute down to the ground 4 stories down, then the moment that hamster was unguarded, it would bolt. A 9 year old that has ever taken their hamster outside knows this. A 9 year old typically doesn’t want to lose their pet. So this was why I said that anon never had a hamster (as in this post is fake).

        and even if I did I wouldn’t remember it well because I was 6 years old.

        You don’t remember anything from when you were 9 years old (as Anon was)? Are you saying if you had a pet at 9 you have no memory of it today? That…wouldn’t be normal.

    This is how they get the voter fraud statistics.

  Given that it’s not uncommon for kids to injure themselves jumping from high places using a sheet as a parachute, I don’t think we need to be assuming malice here.
