The title of this video is "Wife's hidden camera gets her abusive husband on camera". After watching I was 100% sure they were being facetious.. Checked description, nope.. Entirely serious

I came across this video while, ironically enough, having a conversation with a friend about how serious allegations like abuse have been so watered down by exaggeration born of sheltered spoiled ignorance at best.. And malicious, intentional misrepresentation at worst.

I was actually trying to find an example of how when it's a woman and/or the mother being physically rough that the threshold for what's acceptable is gargantuanly more accepting of what's "too much" than when a man/father is doing the same actions.. Instead I got the exact opposite, yet somehow exactly on the same point.. It breaks my fucking heart knowing that shit like this is being weaponized as the "abusive behavior" that courts are fed to keep fathers alienated and mothers paid.

I'm sorry, where was the abuse again?

Comments turned off, naturally.

Imagine the vocal description of this during a court deposition.

Check the other videos. Maybe the abuse was his singing and the video was supposed to be a joke 🤷‍♂️

Edit:

My initial response was:

I'm unsure what to make of this. Either it's a mislabelled video or whoever titled it focused so much on a specific aspect it became an issue for them

The videos description:

"This wife decided to get a video shot of her husband teaching her daughter how to sing an eighties song, but recorded a bit longer and got a video of her husband being abusive to their son...... at least that's what we see. What do you see?"

Literally asking for people's opinion too, so you just know the comments would have been worth reading.

???????????????

Is this a sarcastic video?

I was entirely sure it had to be as well. Like, maybe even was titled in such a way of calling people out for calling things that are obviously not abusive as abusive and watering the word down.. I was going to check the comments but they're disabled, but the videos description made it clear that whoever posted this was actually being serious. Here's what it says:

"This wife decided to get a video shot of her husband teaching her daughter how to sing an eighties song, but recorded a bit longer and got a video of her husband being abusive to their son...... at least that's what we see. What do you see?"

I’m not seeing abuse. I’m seeing more rough play.

To be fair i think it was just an attempt at going viral as it seems like it's the dad's channel. Also she is laughing in the video. Also she is still with him from what i can see.
