  1. Being fit, coordinated, capable, and able to handle the challenges of an “uneven” environment is something that EVERY CHILD should be encouraged to be. It is NOT a gender-specific set of critical skills. Good for all involved in making this young lady capable…including the young lady.

  2. 3… 2… 1… She comes home with splinters, scrapes, and bruises, and he loses custody in the divorce.

    She’s not “playing”. She’s pleasing Dad and being made into a spectacke on the internet. Some of that stuff is actually dangerous. Try jogging or ballet lessons.

  3. Nifter,

    “Confidence”, balance and strength skills can be got without having a 5-year-old “practicing” on obstacles that, should she fall, can result in a serious injury.

    He’s so full of himself it doesn’t even occur to him that perhaps long pants would be more appropriate. But that’s the least of it.

    Of note, as I said, this child is not “playing”, as on monkey bars, or climbing a tree. She’s not learning kayaking skills. Or swimming. Etc.

    At her father’s behest, she’s not doing free play with other children. She’s imitating American Gladiator TV show, and being egged on by her father, hurry hurry hurry because you’re a performer for my video audience (not particularly psychologically cool either; train up yet another tiktok attention seeker).

    The only thing missing was a competition with others aspect, but even without that, this was amazing.
