In this classic vid, a mom surprises her kids by letting them know they’re going to DISNEY WORLD, BAY-BEE! Their reaction is somewhat less than enthusiastic. (Unfortunately, this mom doesn’t understand that “Dick’s House” is way cooler than Disney World could ever be.)
Sidebar: I’d be tempted to stab the faces off these kids, but then I’m reminded that their mom chose to sit them in the smoking section.

POLL!!
Would you rather go with these kids to Disney World or Dick’s House?


There may be other choices… but I can’t think of any.

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)

  1. This has got to be the worst parenting I’ve seen since that clip of the child opening the XBox packaging and finding clothes inside, with his whole family laughing at him as he cries. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsbF69hgLpA)

    One child is playing with money, another has been skinheaded, and the third is already so outcast he/she hides his/her head, and all three are sitting in the smoking section.
    They look more stunned than upset at first, as if they honestly can’t believe they’re having this shoved down their throats and it takes them a second to process it.
    And then to cap it all off, instead of empathising with the effect her moronic parenting book-prompted “surprise” is having “her” children, and communicating with them to get to know them for a change, the abysmal cow holding the camera and the loudmouth I must assume to be her sister or friend, take on a snarky tone and bitch about gratitude.

    Dick, I can only assume, is the children’s father, who lost custody in the divorce from this VILE self-centered harpy. If that is the case my heart goes out to him and his children.
