An Entitled Dad Blamed Him For Not Providing Child-Friendly Entertainment At The High-End Luxury Showroom Where He Works
Is there anything more infuriating than a parent who believes they deserve special treatment just because they have kids? We don’t think so.
TikToker Matthew Bunker (@bunkerlicious) is talking about an entitled dad who blamed him for not providing child-friendly entertainment at his workplace after his child got hurt falling off a piece of furniture.
So Matthew works in sales at a high-end luxury showroom, which obviously does not sound like a kid-friendly place. But, the other day, a family walked in with their kids. And in the showroom, there are multiple swivel desk chairs standing off to the side.
“Now, if you’ve ever been a kid, you know that swivel chairs are like crack to a six-year-old. Like it’s just one big upholstered carnival ride,” said Matthew
The kids eventually found their way over to the chairs and started spinning around in them while Matthew was chatting with the parents.
At one point, the dad looked over and chuckled in amusement, seeing that his kids were having the time of their lives with these chairs.
Matthew took the opportunity to make a joke about how the chairs were there for the sole purpose of entertaining kids. But instead of laughing along, the dad took it seriously.
“So the dad turns to me, and he’s like, ‘well, we were just in another showroom, and even though it wasn’t kid-friendly, they brought out wooden blocks for them to play with,'” recounted Matthew.
About ten seconds later, one of the kids fell off the chair and bumped his leg. Luckily, it wasn’t anything serious, and it didn’t hurt enough for the kid to start crying. But the dad rushed over in concern and chewed Matthew out.

“This man channels the audacity of a thousand years of patriarchy and looks at me and says, ‘This is why you should have wood blocks,'” said Matthew.
“Excuse me, sir, first of all, this is a high-end showroom, not a Chuck E. Cheese, okay? Entertaining your sticky little hobgoblin is not part of my job description. I do not remember signing up for the babysitter’s club.”
Matthew concluded the video by pointing out that if you choose to parent a child, you have to actually do the parenting.
As a parent, it is your responsibility to guard your kids against harm, not the employees at whatever establishment you may be at.
