I remember my friend who dropped out of school and basically life at age 13 after impregnation by a 35 year-old. I remember my friend at age 12 showing a bruise on her breast from a grown man who worked at the main store in our tiny town. And another classmate who seemed weirdly sexual at a young age but surprise surprise, was being raped by her stepfather. My own mother crying when she found her old elementary school photos and seeing her face covered in herpes from abuse that happened earlier in her childhood.

I'm very confident that she knows that, logically. Unfortunately, the mind and body tend not to work entirely logically and the logical part is generally slower to catch up. That's why we can continue to have reactions later on in life and, immediately after, feel depressed and self-hateful that we still do, even though we know full well that we were blameless.
How much happier would so many lives be if that trauma-learned instinct could be switched off forever?

It completely killed any joy in dancing until I got well into my teenage years and was able to dance after a few drjnks.

Kid is not at eye level for him and the dad is. IMO, him moving further away is simply because he has an eye level visual of it. He ends up slightly overcorrecting and menacing more to the left.

He likely covered the guys face for 1 of 2 reasons:
1: He decided to show some compassion to someone he thought was simply too drunk and unaware instead of malicious. There were times where drunk man almost stumbled into dad as well. It might just be the alcohol
2: He didn’t want the possible social repercussions from this man by showing his face online. This man could be a friend, relative, pastor, colleague, neighbor, etc.
Either way, I think the conversation needs to be more about dad’s great awareness and effective non- confrontational approach to handing the situation.

And "this person has ill intentions"

Why cover his face. STOP PROTECTING THEM.
Some seriously suspect people in here. “But but but officer.. he was just drunk.. he doesn’t know any better.”
Listen, as a father myself, if a grown ass man is all over my daughter I don’t give a shit what the circumstances are. Also, in regards to the “but he’s still uncoordinated when the dad is next to him”, sure, he’s still a little wobbly but he very clearly is not as bad as he was. He also straight up moved into the little girl. He didn’t just pull an “oopsie daisy” and bump. He MOVED to be next to her and right up on her at 1 point. If you’re so drunk you can’t keep to your own space in a line dance, then get the fuck out. But I will not make excuses for him, I will not say “but but but he’s” and I will stand by what I’ve said previously because it is VERY CLEAR he is bumping and getting right up on her, then manages to stay in his own little circle (although still a little wobbly) when dad steps in. Let’s not be idiots here. You can see it just as we all can and if you can’t see what’s happening you’re either suspect yourself or just an idiot. If someone is so drunk they’re bumping and rubbing up on someone, then it won’t just stop because someone else moves to that spot. He TRIED to be right up on her. He faces her and moves towards her multiple times and not even in a “oh my balance is off” type of way. He takes 1 big ass step to be in her little area. You might not have kids and that’s fine, but I do, and I’d do exactly what this dad does. I’d assume it’s something because why chance it? If he’s that unbalanced when she’s next to him then why tf wasn’t he that unbalanced when he was inbetween the 2 men? Did his drunkenness just disappear? Did his balance all the sudden correct itself? I don’t think so.
Say all the shit you want but clearly you’re the minority here. Doesn’t bother me none. I stand by my opinion because like I said I’m a dad myself to a 7 year old little girl and this shit doesn’t slide with me.

This breaks my heart but not for the reason you might think — I’m watching this and seeing a protective father. The way she lights back up again at the end, he saved the situation, he made her feel safe enough to keep having fun.
When I was a kid my dad was the drunk, and put me in unsafe situations with other grownup men because he wasn’t watching. He wasn’t protecting me. He betrayed me.
I love seeing dads like this but it also hurts me so much knowing that it could’ve been like that, it should’ve been like that, for me too. I want all little girls kids to have that.
Anyways, thanks for coming to my ted talk

I feel like his spacial awareness is just as bad the whole way through? He's just stumbling around the whole time

No picking fights, being macho, performative bullshit just place yourself between the problem and your kid and let them enjoy themselves. Absolute master class on parenting.

u/Winter_Different 6d ago
yeah this seems like a severe overreaction, people ar fukn demanding for his face to be revealed so they can supposedly harass him for being drunk and clumsy lol
Even the original uploaders used the fukn drunk emoji for a reason

redditors. always ready to believe the worst about any situation. the guy's spatial awareness didn't change at all once dad switched spots. dad didn't see a predator, he saw a drunk dude he didn't want his daughter next to. drunk guy remained an equally poor dancer.

Being a young woman/girl in this world is like having targets painted front and back.
Drunk bully or drunk perv. Doesn't matter. Glad Pops saved the day.

Sad. It’s one of those moments women experience when they’re little girls that sit with them. Learning how to navigate that invasion of space and joy. How to pick up and move on when you’ve been made to feel uncomfortable and self-conscious. Poor baby.

I don't see his awareness getting better, just him fumbling in a different direction.

The audio says “I moved her because she deserved to enjoy this moment” so it would make sense he posted this.

I watched it a couple of times. First, he is wasted. If you watch the feet of the dancers, he is all over Hell's Half Acre. Second, you can see a moment where she looks up at him and seems wary of him. I think she was unnerved by some drunk dude who might misstep and fall onto her. Dad moves her over, and she is relieved because now she has a buffer between herself and drunk dude.
Thanks, Dad!

His spatial awareness didn't really "get better", he was still drunkenly floundering around, but he definitely backed off when dad and daughter switched.
I dunno if he was being creepy or just trying to bully the poor girl, but he was WAY TOO close even for a drunk man who can barely stand.

u/surgeryboy7 6d ago
The only reason people in the comments are assuming the guy was a creep is because the title told them to think that. I guarantee 95% of the people in these comments would basically go along with whatever the title told them to, just like what happened to that poor dude at the baseball game.

u/ItsACowCity 6d ago
Yup. I came here to say wtf…that dudes spatial awareness did not improve in the slightest. Well maybe the tiniest because now he doesn’t have to look down to see if he’s going to collide with someone. But yea. Still def all over the place

I mean there is a slight possibility that it's a peripheral thing. The drunk uncoordinated guy might not have noticed the little girl in his peripheral vision, but there was no way he could have missed the Dad.

I mean ya he’s a drunk dumbass stumbling around at what I presume is a concert where the lyrics are talking about sneaking into bars…. I don’t get why everyone is calling him a pedo, I don’t think dude was being a dick on purpose, he even tried following the lady behind him some, just didn’t know the moves to a highly mobile dance.

u/Salt-Peak-7804 6d ago
Yeah being drunk with two left feet definitely isn't a crime, plus if he really thought that guy was trying to push up on his little girl like that I'm sure his reaction would have been a lot more then just switching places with her.

I don't know if he was a pervert like some comments are surgesting , but it's clear that he is drunk , and he was *a lot more comfortable casually getting in that little girl's space than he was the other adults around him *.
He changed behaviour slightly because it was suddenly someone who could make an issue of it if he continued getting up in their space.
Coin toss really, but it's clear he didn't notice or care about the kid .

I watched it like three times and it just looks like a guy that had a few too many dancing around. Sure, he is super lame, but the father also has his kid at a place that allows for that level of drinking.
I mean if the dad was getting his kid away from a drunk dude, cool, but to imply the drunk dude was hitting on the kid, I don't see it.
