For everyone criticizing the mother about standing by while her child could hurt himself, stand down! She’s creating a memory that she can share with him when he gets older. And when I was young, I learned to ride a big bike with no helmet and no training wheels around my yard while my big brother and dad watched me. I was covered in bumps and bruises and scratches but I had fun and they were in arms reach like this mom if they needed to step in. This little guy is having a blast and mom is right there if he needs her. 😃

This speaks volumes. What’s inspiring is the child keeps falling down and gets back up again. What’s something we can take away from that is. We learn at a young age that we fall, we get up, we fall again, we get up again. Life often will knock us down and in the end it’s us getting back up again that makes us stronger to be able to get back up again the next time.

At least there will be no more walking on egg shells. Those parents are going to need to scramble. I'm sure the kid is a good egg though. Oh no, I appear to have egg on my face. I'll show myself out...

Holy shit. Thats like 50 bucks worth of eggs

I suspect the child is at an age where he has done a lot of falling while learning to walk. I wonder if the people who thought the mother should have intervened, even have children. Our pastor has told of waking (before he was a pastor, he was working nights at that time and his wife was working days) to their children playing in a pile of flour and eggs on the kitchen floor. There may have been even more ingredients, but I have forgotten the details. Our daughters tried making "milk" for a doll's bottle from talcum powder and water. It made the bathtub very slippery! Another time they put pine pitch in their hair. We managed not to have to cut their hair, but it took some trial and error to get it out. Children do some crazy things while learning about life.

This kid is connecting synapses in a way that many do not get a chance to anymore. Floors, clothes, people can be cleaned and washed. Many of us will pay alot of money to try and teach a kid a skill. The cost of a few eggs is worth the educational connections this kid is making. Those connections will last a lifetime. Maybe they will be the next Wright brother, Ely Whitney, Thomas Edison or Tesla. This parent is watching out for the child's well-being physically by being present ready to step in if required as well as mentally and emotionally by letting the child explore and learn without interference. Dollars to doughnuts this kid participated in the clean up. More synapses connected more brain power. Our society needs to appreciate learning from failure a lot more and fear it less.

My mother would have been upset about wasting the eggs. Me, on the other hand, would have scooped up the kiddo because slippery eggs, a baby and hard wood floors….

From child's perspective it is just exploration He is trying to understand whats happening and so long as he is not getting seriously injured he is not going to understand the dangers of falling and getting hurt..and in the first place child might not be thinking at all about mess or anything Our minds are busy giving meanings and drawing interpretations from the whole thing As far mess is concerned when we are getting into it seldomly we get into ans when we realise that we are in mess its no choice left with us ..either continue in it suffering or enjoying as mentioned in post till we find out a way or somebody takes us out of it
