Default Parenting Fail at a Laundromat

Quote:
At a laundromat in Camden, New Jersey, a man decided it would be funny to put a small child inside of a washing machine.

The man has not been identified, but was with the 13 month old child's babysitter. He was playing with the child when he lifted him up and put him in a front loading machine and closed the door. The door automatically locked and the machine started.
Quote:
There has not been any comment from the boy's parents as of yet. The grandmother of the baby spoke with WPIV and said the family found out about the incident after seeing the video on television. She also said they did not know who the man in the video is.

Although this may have been in fun while playing with child, the consequences could have been much worse. There have been other incidents that were not in fun, but happened by accident.
I am very pleased to report that the child was not seriously harmed physically.

But you have to wonder what the long-term mental results could be.

An aversion to bathing?

A lifelong sense that laundry used to be more fun when he was a kid?

A persistent feeling that no matter how mundane the moment, things can go horribly wrong without warning?

A strange career choice, such as professional wrestling ( stage name: “Spin Cycle”)?

Since he knows how to spin, I'm guessing White House spokesman...

This might explain why obama is the way he is.........

What do you want to bet that they end up suing the laundromat for not posting warnings that children shouldn't be put into the washing machines?

Is it me or are people getting continually more stupid in this country?

Explain to me why you would place your baby inside a washing maching?

I wonder what would happen if the laundry was full of old long underwear and sports jerseys (Cinncinati, Boston and St Louis baseball jerseys, Arizona, Kansas City and SF football jerseys)??
