Each to their own but animals are not playthings for children! 😢

[@janellejandreau9256]

This is not about any child's birthday, this is about a parent's ego.

[@hoobyhoo]

Amen! Took the words right out of my mouth!!

[@arodavenue]

yes indeed. best represantion of this is a current viral video of mom twerking and stealing the show right ff the bat.

Having fun comes in many ways. Judging only comes in one

She spent all that money on a wild west party, and all her son wanted was to play in the garden.....

[@francesbacon7825]

What a sick bunch of adults. These parties are for the mothers to out do one another. I loved the expression of the slightly older woman looking horrified or ill hearing about plans for a party. The ridiculous part is most children do not remember all of this,

[@dhenderson1810]

Jerry Seinfeld once said that "A person's first and last birthday parties have a lot in common". "For a start, they are the least interested one there".

[@JoeyBoBo]

So kian got his fancy new haircut for the party and his mom sticks a cowboy hat on him which covers it up 😂

[@ms.krueger2660]

I have three sons. I hate to say it but I never had them a big party. Could not afford it. I made a cake and invited family. They never seemed to mind.

[@ellie5461]

I'm peopled out just watching this! It looks like my worst nightmare 😂

[@ColleenTempleart]

Parents should save their money and put it towards the child’s college tuition. Do them more good in the long run.

[@celestialcircledance]

At least the kids looked appreciative and like they were having a good time because no matter how much money you shell out that's never a guarantee I hope they're good fortune doesn't change and they don't blow their kids college funds and in the meantime, Jimbo the party coordinator is cashing out and laughing all the way to the bank !

[@VladmirPoopN]

The kids having fun is what is important; parents trying to outdo each other - the complete opposite. I don't have children, but I do have a dog who gets spoiled rotten: extra food, extra walks, extra pets - all it takes is the right look/whine at the right time and I can't say no.... Her excited & happy demeanor when I agree, is just 🤗🥰 Edit: even her huffs and groans when I say "no" are adorable and hilarious too 😅.... Ok, I'm out before I leave a short book about my princess lol

[@ellegaitor2887]

Erm Kians fancy new haircut has me 💀 😂 he looks like he’s balding or had an accident with the clippers

[@newp848]

Im american and i remember seeing some British talk show hosts harping on a guest bc she chose to celebrate her kids' birthdays on the weekend instead of the actual day if it fell on a work/school day. The audience was appalled and gasping. I realized then that birthdays must be weirdly hyper serious there. My god

[@professormcclaine5738]

C'mon habibi a bar-mitzvah isn't just an ordinary birthday party. Shalom.

[@maxineb9598]

Thats the only party in this lot that has some significance in a childs young life.

[@marinae4672]

Wow .... just wow (and not in a positive way). Those parties are obviously for the parents, not for the kids. And those special entrances just made me cringe massively. It's also painful to listen to those parents talking about they do it because they love their children so much - so they think the amount you spend is an indication of how much you love your child? And spending money on them is their (only?) way of showing their love? Poor spoiled children. Worst of all is Anton's mum. The relationship she has with her son is very worrying. I liked the guy who did their party, though. He was the only one of all those entertainers and partyplanners who openly said how bloody ridiculous this is. I loved it when he laughed about the stupidity of spendig such an amount for such a lavish party .... and this for only 14 children.

[@jessicaburrows2942]

I have second hand embarrassment for the mum dressed as the cowgirl.

[@rochelletarr182]

I was just about to type the exact same sentence but you beat me to it 😅

[@wendydenning5709]

I know it seems like a lot but the parents seem to be doing this because they love their kids

[@maxineb9598]

You can love your kids without spending 1000's. No wonder we have a generation who think they are entitled.

[@wendydenning5709]

@@maxineb9598 I know that but for the mom who had the boy through ivf and the former johovahs witness I'm sure there is trauma there

My party was in a church hall with some music and pace the parcel

Priorities need to be pit back in order.

[@divergentone7491]

Is all this fuss really for the kids or for the attention-starved mothers?

[@bettybridges1635]

No it’s mom’s show off time

[@BIGHEADjr51]

Are your videos from the 90s?

[@coyster530]

That's pretty bad when you've got the kids saying they think it's too much. And that girl fattest cat nothing looks like Garfield

[@shanac5536]

I feel bad for that haircut and what kind of witchcraft were those kids using to make that cat hold still😂

[@ann-mariepaliukenas19]

I’m more worried abour the see through dresses the girls are wearing,and that poor boy’s haircut,and he’s wise for his age.

[@theotherleonaygirl]

[@coyster530]

I didn't pay all this money for you guys to be in the garden and not in the barn I would be so embarrassed of my parents this hole episode really bothers me this is just people trying to make up for their lack of childhood by spoiling their own kids

[@gr8macaw1]

I can see why the mom who’s dad was a JW wants to have parties for her children.

[@maxineb9598]

Theres parties then theres "PARTIES". No guessing which one this kid had.

[@pagonabarbata1364]

This doco should be titled "money wasted on spoilt brats".

All I know is if I ever have kids they better not be expected any of that cuz it ain't going to happen this is ridiculous this is parents just trying to show other parents they have money

[@ellp152]

I Feel bad for kids trying to grow up now!!!!!!!!!!!! Parents SUCK!!!! SO not only do u have to have name brand everything for school you have to spend a fortune for there birthday 😂😂😂 This IS most definitely NOT about the children!

[@Michelle-qd9gm]

What about other families that can’t afford it it’s all about showing off on the parents side I think it’s sad and pathetic

[@TheCowgirlNiamh]

Vulgar is all I can think of 😂

[@Sentient_Goose]

I was expecting a lot more. This is click bait. These parties pale in comparison to any Bar/Bat mitzvah I've ever been to.

[@TigerheartedWolf]

This show was filmed in the late 2000s I'm guessing. That will explain a lot.

[@jakemoeller7850]

The first woman said that her father was a Jehovah's Witness. The religion is not known to promote partying!

[@dhenderson1810]

They don't celebrate birthdays or Christmas.

[@maxineb9598]

My kids for a few years had a JW girl of similar age live next door. You could guarantee every year Iforgot her religion and invited her to a birthday party.

[@coyster530]

The bar mitzvah people are freaking nuts I don't understand it I don't get the military like planning for this maybe it's just I don't understand Judaism but it doesn't make sense to me all I know in America we don't see people throwing parties like that for their kids you don't see Jewish families renting out entire facilities I think the combination of the ego of the family and the father is basically the dad trying to flex on everybody

[@Sentient_Goose]

Bar mitzvahs are a lot of fun! You should try it sometime. It's definitely a cultural thing. They take years of preparation and tons of cash, but it's a wonderful tradition. It's not just a birthday party, it's a milestone for a family and a community.

[@coyster530]

@@Sentient_Goose where I live in California we don't have a very big Jewish population so I've never actually heard of anybody around where I live having a real big bar mitzvah I'm sure they do but they keep it amongst themselves They Don't Really share it but any of the other community

[@maxineb9598]

If you dont mix with Jews, you're not likely to understand their religious traditions.

[@possumfriend2335]

I guess the kids should just be glad their mom went for this brand of attention instead of convincing them to mutilate their genitals.
