Kid goes 'demon' over MySpace addiction

That kid is just spoiled. Myspace didn't do this - that kid just needed an excuse

I hate myspace, but I've seen other spoil kids do similar things over other obsessions. That kid is the problem.
 
The kid to his brother and his friends - "You're all dumbasses"

Well, the kid is certainly correct on that point 😛
 
who picks on your little brother like that.... he should be playing basketball and throwing the football/baseball around with him...

Yeah, the kid may be crazy, but his brother and his friends are partially to blame in this case.
 
That brother is a POS. He's ruining that kids life emotionally.

Americans wonder why our nation seems to produce crazed killers and psychopaths, Ladies and Gentlemen, Exhibit A.

Sigh.

Shens, the kid is just being picked on.

No kidding. Big tough teenagers we just being pricks looking for videos to put on Youtube. Family of attention whores.
 
zomg I want to smack that kid upside the head. But yes, all of the people in that video need a swift ass kicking.
 
Wow...lots of pussies in this thread.

Seriously....the kid is NOT a victim. He's a spoiled brat who is going to have a rough time in the real world once he has to make it on his own. Any parent who lets their child get away with such behavior needs to be taken out and shot. They obviously have no parenting skills and have let the little shit run wild.
 
Heard this on my way in to work on the Opie and Anthony show, and wow that kid has some issues. So does his brother and his friends.

If this is real and that kid really gets that messed up over Myspace he has some serious issues. The brother and his friends are not helping the kid at all though either.

I must say though that is one messed up family.... Hope the parents watch it then proceed to knock some much needed sense into both the kid and the brother

Well, that is a presumption based on what your eyes are telling you.

You have absolutely no idea what was done or said to him prior to the camera being turned on to get him in the state he is in.

Having been a big brother myself, the oldest of 4 I can tell you that picking on your siblings is pretty much a day to day occurrence, I on more than one occasion brought my sister to this same state by threatening to kill her fish or rabbit when I was younger, I am sure that this kid faces that same type of behavior everyday also.

Second you don't know what kind of emotional issues he has or has developed due to this kind of treatment on a day to day basis.

If you listen to the video and listen to his breathing it is very irregular, either he has been crying due to harassment prior to the camera being turned on or his body is reacting to the great stress that he is under....which could lead to hyperventilation. Not funny.

These teens are nothing more than bullies with nothing more in their lives than to pick on small kids.

I highly doubt that if the parents were home that this would have been done. (at least I hope not)

Oh please...big brothers have been picking on little brothers since the beginning of time. It is part of life, part of growing up.

This kid can't handle it because he, most likely, has no discipline in his life and like a huge number of kids these days has been given everything he ever wanted and has never been told "no" by an adult.

Quit treating the kid like a victim. Doing so will only make it worse, not better. He needs to fucking toughen up and stop acting like a 2 year old who just spilled their drink box.

Oh please...little brothers have been being picked on by older brothers since the beginning of time. It is called physical and mental abuse. Quit promoting it.

This kid can't handle it because his parents, most likely, have never stepped in and stopped the abuse. Instead of coping with tha abuse, he is chosing to lash out.

Quit treating the abusive older brother like he is normal and acceptable. Doing so will only make it worse, not better. He needs to fucking quit abusing his younger brother up and stop acting like a 2 year old who just spilled their drink box and wants to take their brothers.

I hope he does kill his family. His family is full of bitches who need to kill themselves and also go die. And also he has like 230 friends, so he's like way popular unlike you bitches, who should go die. Damn bitches. Kill yourselves.

But seriously, how do you watch that video and only see a kid obsessed with MySpace? Did you somehow miss the 3 older kids standing in a circle taunting him endlessly? It's pretty pathetic to team up to pick on someone both younger and physically (and presumably emotionally) weaker and pretend you were just trying to help him.

older siblings torment younger siblings, it is the circle of life after all.

Abuse?!? Good lord...no wonder this country is going down the shitter.

I didn't have a little brother, or a big one for that matter, but I had cousins who lived nearby and the older one picked on me constantly when I was younger and I in turned picked on his younger brothers. It isn't fucking abuse for Jeebus' sake. It is part of the natural order of things.

The kid is a brat who doesn't care about anyone but himself and places more value on a god damned web site than he does his family. He acts like that because his parents likely are not acting as parents and just let him run wild. Hell that much is obvious.

Yeah...he's a "victim"

Hopefully someday you will learn to stop the cycle of violence. Just beacause you were abused doesnt mean you should have passed it on, but sadly "its all you knew".

Oh for Christ's sake.... I was not abused nor did I abuse anyone. Just because you're a pansy doesn't mean everyone is.

i loled at this Shinner is right, i have a younger brother and an older sister and we tormented each other alot, hell i even tossed a hockey puck at my brothers head and have him a cut that required 4 stitches to fix
 
People have flipped out equally over video games. Some kids are simply subject to obsession (I often obsessed over things, still kind of do... but I never flipped a lid, likely because I never needed too lol). My sister would fight me to gain access to the computer. That thing was mine as a kid. 😀
Kids with obsessions is nothing normal, and some are subject to emotional distress when they are taunted constantly. Combine obsession with taunting and you'll get someone flipping. Like I said, you see it often with kids and video games.

Nothing new, move on. Once the little kid ages a bit, he will likely get into a fist fights with his older brother. And his brother will deserve it.

If I had a little brother, I'd try hard as hell to shape him into a better person than I am. At least, if I was the age of the older brother and there was that kind of age difference. If we were closer, I'd almost guarantee they would be fist fights just because that's how young guys are. Something's gonna set siblings off to go after each other. Like I said, me and my older sister (3 year age difference) fought endlessly when we were younger, but also had many great family times together too.
It's called being young and siblings. Most grow out of it and learn to appreciate one another. Me and my sister are really close now, except she moved and got married out of state, and will likely be moving even further away due to her husbands career.
