VIDEO: 4 Year Old Driving Is Part of A Disturbing Trend: VideoTaping Kids Doing Dangerous Things As Though It’s Cute.

Some online videos have twice the stupidity at half the price. In this latest viral sensation, a 4 year old Chinese girl is driving along a busy highway while her parents videotape and enjoy the ride. Dangerous, illegal, and stupid. But scroll down and you’ll see that parents taping their kids doing things that they’re too young to do is anything but unusual.

Here’s the video in question. hey, at least she’s not texting…

Again, here’s yet another kid driving while his parents watch… in this case, a seven year old boy is driving while the mother has a young baby in the back seat on her lap. (That’s right, no car seat. Morons!) The father, operating the camera, even says he is so confident in his son’s driving that this proud dad doesn’t even watch the road. The mother says to slow down, but ultimately laughs it off.

 

In this next video, we learn that when you teach when you teach a kid to use an AK-47, stand back. Or better yet – don’t teach a kid to use an AK-47.

Then there’s the disturbing trend of kids smoking, as adults not only watch in amusement, but video tape it for long term enjoyment. Here is one of two children smoking on a train.

I just don’t believe parents are this stupid. But there’s plenty of proof here that they are.

On the other hand, it would be anything BUT dangerous and foolish to follow me, @BrianBalthazar, and @POPgoesTheWeek on Twitter. I’m pretty harmless.
