With cruel parents like that it's a fair assumption.

Fat ass bh can afford loads of pies though. Parents like that suck. AT least the kid didnt show off, he was more mature than the adults.

I dont find this funny at all. If its real then the parents need a good kicking. The kid would be better off in foster care.

I can laugh at most things... but that??

Took me back to my childhood, receiving consoles and toys (nothing too exceptionally flash) which I knew stretched my parents budget. How much they tried and how hard they worked to provide for us what many other kids' parents could afford quite easily.

Who was that laughing hysterically in the background, seems he found it genuinely very funny. I was waiting for the punchline or hidden xbox to appear, but obviously this was a pre-meditated joke, and a shocker as vids go.

But who chucked the vid on YouTube? Certainly not the kid! The whole thing stinks. Id chuck some cash in his xbox fund if he were traceable, as Im sure most of you lot would too.

Snag is, the first time he sneaked a look, he would have thought it was an Xbox. In any case, the parents wanted to trick him.

I've just deleted what I wrote. BUGGER.

I said that the video is shocking. Even if the kid had had a look then so what? As a parent I would just not give it to them for an hour or so, I wouldn't deceive them by putting clothes in the damn box.

Xmas is a time when you remember things for a LONG time. I still remember getting a go-kart when I was like 4 or 5.

Absolutely terrible parenting. And the laughter is shocking as well.

Yep, I agree. I'm rather upset by that video - the kid looked genuinely stunned as to why his parents would do that - and I can well understand - I echo the comments that many parents try their best to give their children as much as they can and to do something like this is tantamount to abuse.

He was told not to look and he still did, so they removed the 360 and filled it with clothes.Shortly after the clip he got the 360.Lesson learned as someone else also mentioned i suppose.It's hardly bad parenting imho.My friends parents removed the plugs off everything he owned for being naughty laugh

Btw the guy whos brother it is also said this..

"after he ran out, my mom put it back and then asked him to try his cloths on"

Assuming this is the truth, then all is well that ends well. They coulda posted that on the same video or something, though.

Probably did get the console in the end, afterall where else are they going to find a new Xbox box?

Having said that, it was a bit of a cruel prank, although if the kid was being nosey then arguably not so bad.

If it was actually a joke and the kid never got the console then I do feel for him.
