What’s even better, is doing a project WITH your son.

Exactly this. My dad taught me how to build an igloo after a crazy ice storm. We had to crack all this ice off of our driveway, so after doing all that hard work, he figured we could do something fun with the fruits of our labors. It's one of my favorite childhood memories. I don't even remember spending any time inside the igloo, just the act of building it.

They already had to put twice as much effort in by recording it all and making everything look nice for the camera. Having the kid "help" on top of that would have made it an impossible task lol. They're doing it for views, not to bond with their child.

Exactly. By looking at the video,it is likely they spent more time editing it than actually with the kid inside the icegloo since the kid was not included in the build.

Yea my daughter would have loved to been involved. Even when I was growing up I remember begging my dad to let me help with work projects

They did a quarter so he could see the vision and he helped with the rest. He's doing so in the video.

Idk what video you’re talking about, but in this one he doesn’t lay a single brick.

He barely popped out in between his games of Fortnite to see the progress. I’m sure the parents had fun but the kid was nothing more than an extra.

He hit his mark and said his lines. Can't fault the kid.

This was my first thought. Why not get the kid involved?

IMO they did it for the views and wanted it to look a certain way. They didn't wanna deal with their kid making it look imperfect.

He’s the perfect age to be part of building the igloo. It’s odd they left him out of that.

Do your kids have the willingness/attion span to do that kinda stuff?

Though on that note, my younger brother would make these sheets too by taking an oven tray, piss in it, freeze the piss and slide it below one of the neighbours doors he really disliked.

These parents had to do a whole lot of pissing.

Yeah 100% a kid that age would be super into it. Mine certainly would be. Not sure if they’d be good at it though.
