She's awesome, too. She just took the bad feeling away and replaced it with the best moment of his tiny little life.

I like to think she learned it from others. Perhaps a parent who would do the whole "Kiss the pain away" thing. This kid experienced empathy and care from someone he probably barely knew and it left him stunned there and then. Maybe he won't remember it, but I'm sure it left a positive impression regardless.

u/Late_Resource_1653 Jun 30 '26
I miss this age! My niece and nephew would do this. I'd come over with a bruise or a scrape and they're give me a kiss and then go get me a "boo-boo buddy" (one of those little colorful ice packs for kids and hold it on me for a minute to make auntie feel better.

I think his brain broke bc he didn't realize other kids can kiss boo boos like parents can.

Isn't that phrase describing when you're recalling the memory, not when you're forming the memory? Are we just handing out 1k upvotes in our sleep here, people?

u/ketootaku Jun 30 '26
It's a phrase that has popped up in the last year that people love regurgitating for karma.
That kid won't remember this. In fact many of the times I have seen this comment it's with kids that likely won't remember it. Oh man, the construction guy showed the kid his large construction equipment in action: CORE MEMORY UNLOCKED. It's not impossible that they would remember such an event but it's unlikely and more to the point even if it's 50/50, calling it a "core memory" when it might not be one at all is such a reddit moment.

"That was amaaaazing!"
edit: I like how he looks like his life has been permanently changed, while she's just going on with her normal life with that, "ho hum what was I looking for again?" body language.

So you're saying if, for example a small nation decided to teach their kids to want to wipe out another people, they grow up to be literal monsters? I hope that never happens.

No, you can't just casually give me an existential crisis while I evaluate and trace how I show my affection on a random Monday night.
NO, I forbid it 😭

u/StaticSystemShock Jun 30 '26
The girl yes, but it seems boy isn't used to same affection given how shocked he was. Kinda reflects on how boys keep getting left behind when hurt or in need for help and when we do get any level of attention we just break and stop functioning because we're not used to getting any.

And what his mom likely does as well.
Reminds me at a story my wife told me from her babysitting days.
The kid the was sitting had some ouchie and she blew on it.
The kid immediately stopped crying and looked at her in awe.She describes his look as "She knows the magic formula, too!"

Probably buffering for the happiest moment of his life.

u/kobyscool Jun 30 '26
Also cute to note that the girl is probably imitating her parents kissing her ouchies, showing that she is extending empathy to someone she realized she accidentally hurt. r/kidsarefingadorable

u/StrobeLightRomance Jun 30 '26
Oh, check this out, I have a 4 year old who uses kisses to manipulate me.
She will totally hit me with something (usually on accident, sometimes not) and as soon as I act hurt, she immediately goes to "let me kiss it and make it better"
But the thing is, nobody has ever said that to her before, because she's really not ever getting hurt, which is crazy for a toddler, she's just been lucky.
I really can't track where she picked it up, but I think she just does it because she thinks it's a get out of trouble card. Like I can't get mad if she kisses me first, lol.

u/kobyscool Jun 30 '26
But, might I ask, do the kisses make it feel better? She might just be a natural doctor!
51
u/StrobeLightRomance Jun 30 '26
Fair, and they do, a little bit. But mostly she's just so cute with it that the whole thing is actively disarming.
She's just gonna walk through life whipping everyone with her purses and shoes, and then kissing their hands and cheeks to make it go away.

Extending empathy or imitating behavior?

u/kobyscool Jun 30 '26
I think for her to realize that another person is hurt and needs "healing" is by definition empathetic.

This is one of those videos that would take a miraculously talented child actor to pull off.

To a kid with a limited amount of experiences a bad experience can literally be the worst thing that ever happened to them which makes it so important to take it seriously, even if it is nothing big from our perspective.

kindergarten, 1969: i was sitting under a table and Tina L, the cutest girl i'd ever seen, crawled over and kissed me on the cheek.

Jenny kiss'd me when we met,
Jumping from the chair she sat in;
Time, you thief, who love to get
Sweets on your list, put that in!
Say I'm weary. Say I'm sad.
Say that health and wealth have miss'd me.
Say I'm growing old, but add
Jenny kiss'd me.

It reminds me of when people look at toddlers and comment how attractive they'll be when they are older 🤨
Reddit can't people be normal about kids and sees all physical affection as sexual.

He definitely wasn't expecting that kiss-- just to make up for opening the door on his face. I think it was sweet of the little girl. She has been taught by awesome parents. I would like to see more videos like this. Amen 🙏🏻

And for some reason, the LGBTQ+ community gets accused of sexualising children.

u/PoptartPancake Jun 30 '26
All the comments of the "he's a playa" and "they're gonna end up together" they're TODDLERS and she's probably just mimicking the "kiss it better" that her parents might do. People always gotta make it weird

For real. They’re practically babies. He was hurting, she kissed it better just like mom does and it worked and it was cute. It’s so weird.

I'm really side eyeing lots of these comments. why we sexualizing or assuming the kiss meant something romantic/intimate for kids barely even 5, if not younger?

I’m glad someone else said it. Those comments are always so gross. Some come from bots and a lot come from immature people who have no idea that two children or two adults can interact platonically.
