What in the world is wrong with people??
"On TikTok, parents have been posting videos of themselves cracking eggs on their young kids’ heads that are accompanied by hashtags like #eggprank and #eggcrackchallenge. Yes, that’s right, they’ve been using the noggins of their toddlers and other youngsters to crack open the shells of chicken eggs before pouring the yolk and egg whites into bowls or pans. Now, many of these kids may have been too young to vocalize their feelings about what just happened. But their resulting facial expressions haven’t typically been like “Thank you, Mom or Dad. This really shows me that you care.” No, instead, they’ve looked more like “Umm what”, “WTF”, “Oh no you didn’t” or even “Oh, the horror,” facial expressions." https://www.forbes.com/sites/brucelee/2023/08/22/tiktok-eggprank-trend-parents-are-cracking-eggs-on-kids-heads/?sh=732d67303059 Maybe I am a stick in the mud, but this just seems so mean. My goal is to raise a kind and empathetic kid, and create a health, nurturing environment for him to grow up in. This doesn't seem like the way. |

| Well there are 2 kids of kids. 1- thinks its hilarious even if they're shocked at first and roll with it, understanding its a joke or 2- the kind that freak out and get upset over it. Know your kid before you do this. |

| Sounds like something the mom on the other thread saying they are a “pranking family” would do. |

It doesn’t solve the problem since people are still doing stupid trends like this. It is not the worst thing in the world but I’m sure it’s not pleasant to have an egg cracked on your head. |

Some people feed their infants lemons for the reaction.
Some leave their screaming and terrified child on Santa’s lap as they film. Some crack eggs. They shouldn’t be parents. |

| So disgusting. They look so confused and hurt and it’s just … not funny. The only ones who laugh are boys around 7-10 years old, which makes sense |
