Can't wait for another story like "my children asked for a soda, I said no, and he didn't cry, we are the kid/parent of the year"

This is not reacting in 'the most amazing way' it's good parenting

Creepy and weird that people eavesdrop on conversations and post them publicly.

I find it interesting that so many people think this speech would be made up for likes. Obviously it's possible. But I have a 2 brothers and 1 brother in law who would probably give a speech just like that in this situation, especially with certain children. (Some of them have more sensitive kids than others, who would need a bigger pep talk.) Kids understand way more than we give them credit for. Knowing that has helped me improve my teaching over the last 5 years more than anything else

Why are photos of a stunning Mama and cute kid on this post? I don't get it... subliminal "be pretty and happy"?

Nice story! I see so many people lose it with their kids-- it's good to show that there's another way.

i think she might remember the father saying because it's rare for her (and for me) to hear something like that. it's a good parenting anywa

society now a days , prizing a man because he is doing what he suppose to do, oh my god well maybe she is a single mom(nothing wrong with being one my mom was a widow) and the actions of the dad really impact her?

My Dad would already be in the car drinking the beer he didn't want to get warm.

My oldest daughter was about 10, and decided to surprise me when I got home from work by loading and running the dishwasher. Only problem was we were out of dishwasher detergent, and she decided to substitute regular dish detergent. When I walked in the door both of my daughters were up to their hips in foam, and armed with pans scooping and dumping foam into the sink. I didn't have a camera, or would still be showing people the pictures. It was hilarious. She was worried that she was going to be in trouble & all I could do was laugh. Between the three of us, we used every towel I had - clean & dirty - to clean up foam. We probably had the cleanest kitchen floor in the whole building. Then we changed into dry clothes & went out to eat!

It is not what was done is noteworthy, rather ordinary. It is that such is so unusual.

To those saying this is no big deal. I grew up with a father to whom accidents were A VERY BIG DEAL, my father would rage at me for accidentally knocking over a cup of juice. This Father's response was an incredibly understanding and human response to an absolute accident: that's what we're celebrating, the kind humanity in the lesson between this father and his son.

That was awesome 😊 It's so great how people will parent kids in such an amazing way! I hope his child grows up to make his father proud! That would make this story even better!

In a world where we are surrounded by "negative news" everywhere we look, this woman took the time to share something positive that this dad did and all some people can do is p**s all over it because she took a picture of herself with the guy. Holy s**t. What's wrong with people? Can't you let something nice exist without having to destroy it? SMH.

35 years working in a hotel and yes times have changed now parents expect the mess to be cleaned up for them . My thing was i was always saying be careful but when the accident happened i didnt yell, it was an accident but different story if they were goofing off.

I was so inspires, I took some selfies!

Bravo! That kind of parenting will make an amazing future parent! What a wonderful cycle to continue.

I'm not a parent but I've been there for over 10 years for my best friend's children, and even though they are not mine I care for them deeply and do my best to use moments like these as teaching moments. Here's the deal... Most of us have bad days, and tempers flare, patience runs out, so I think everyone who acts like this is not a good example of ana ,

While I applaud the father for the way he handled it, I don't think it is "The Most Amazing Way" a parent has reacted. Decent, loving parents respond this way millions of times EVERY DAY!

Accidents happen to all of us.

I liked the last comment lol

Some people in the comments (in the article) act as if they never broke and egg or spilled some soda when not paying attention...

That's quite a confusing speech for a 7 year old, seems a bit made up , but yeah, i still see and admire parents who don't loose it when kids break and spill. Kids are messy , it is a fact, but yelling and getting angry is not going to help their coordination .

BORREEDD

omg! someone that does the same thing i do?! they actually just help the kid and not yell?!?! iv helped strangers kids with stuff like that, it's no big deal, kinda makes the woman look lil minded and stupid for not thinking there are nice and good people in the world

Once I was in McDonald's and saw a child accidentally drop their fries on the floor, then watched as his mother spanked him numerous times on his rear end.......I was totally aghast and then as she turned her head, she caught me staring at her -- I just shook my head and immediately threw my fries on the floor.....
