It’s just part of human nature when things infuriate us all of a sudden. There’s even this whole phenomenon known as “Mildly Infuriating” and we previously wrote about it here, here and here.

However, in some cases, we experience a more severe kind of infuriation that is beyond mild. You can blame anything from a car that won’t start, annoying flight passengers sitting right next to you, a surprise call from tax inspection, a morning that started on the wrong foot, or yourself, it doesn’t change anything.

This subreddit “Infuriating” is a safe place to talk about your infuriation, so no wonder its 10.1k members have already taken that opportunity.

Women, don't forget that men have sex with the same organ we pee with. I mean how gross is that? The hole where the ejaculate comes out is the same hole that we pee out of. When you see some neck beard incel walking down the street, thinking that he's better than you, just laugh, and remind him of how vile he is that he uses his urethra to also convey semen into his socks. NOTE: don't actually do this, incels are dangerous

Translation: "I'm a tyrannical parent who found their son's safe-space sanctuary and burned it to the ground. Should I punish him further for reacting negatively to my conquest? Their elder risked mutual retribution by vouching for them, but I think I shall just obliterate anything I don't understand until my child learns that nothing is ever safe."

Yes, kids definitely need outside time, it's exceedingly important, but deleting something that a child has spent hours on isn't the right way to make that happen. When you delete a Minecraft world, there is absolutely no way to get it back. And honestly, Minecraft could be a really great bonding tool between this parent and their son. My sister and I manage our family's server, and it's really brought us all closer. A great game, a great learning tool, and a few really great freaking novels.

It's infuriating when parents do this. Take away the stereotypical parent child dynamic for a sec, if you were at work and had spent hours, days even weeks on a project that you were really proud of and had worked hard on. How would you then feel if your boss walked in, deleted the hard drive and said "you should be spending more time on filing". You would hit the roof. Now replace boss with parent, someone you thought you could trust, someone you love and you truly believe loves you back. I would cry too. These are not just games, these are hours of hard work and and a creative outlet. You can limit his time on it, you can give him "no computer days" but don't just delete it you absolute heartless maniac.

Seriously, and for a kid that young? That's literally their world. It's like ripping all their drawings off the fridge, tossing them in the fire, then threatening to also toss in their crayons if they don't stop crying about it. I will never understand parents who don't seek to understand their children's interests.

My eldest loves Minecraft. If I think he is playing to much I just tell him to put it down and we will go do something else. I have threatened to take it away but in my defense he wasn’t doing his homework. This would probably upset some folks elsewhere, you panda peeps seem a bit more understanding, I explained to him that he has responsibilities and that if he handles those his free time is his to do whatever he wants. I told him my only expectation is that he tries his best. And now he gets his homework done, it is done correctly and then he can go play. Amazing.

My youngest, almost 22, still plays Minecraft. For every hour outside, my kids earned 15 minutes computer time. Once they were outside, they lost track of time. When they wanted to play they were surprised how much time they had. Until they were teenagers, they were limited to 1 hour a day during the week, 2 hours on weekends.

Taking away your son's Minecraft world without any thought is showing that you think that your child is not important. That what your child enjoys doing is not important. That his thoughts and feelings are not important. That his mind and ability to create and work with others is not important. That enjoying something and learning how to do something that takes time and effort is not important. Your older son is an *a*s*s*h*o*l*e* for saying that Minecraft is just internet Legos. It is much more than that. Parents need to think of their child's future at all times. Let it sit in the back of your mind always. Your actions will effect them for the rest of their life. Some of the stuff you say and do will always be remembered.

I've never played Minecraft, but the little I understand of it says that it's quite creative. If mom/dad destroyed son's world, they might have destroyed months of hard work. I'd say the 17-year-old should permanently take away the parent's access to Quora. Parents need good old-fashioned outside time too.

If a parent doesn't want their kid playing video games then why buy them for the kid? At that point the parent has no one else to blame but themselves. On the other hand, kids should be allowed to cry and feel angry without punishment. Of course they're going to be upset when their hard work is deleted because their parent is on a power trip, and don't know how to set limitations without going to extremes.

As my mom says, pick your battles. If you want to see your kid after they become an adult, I suggest you apologize. It won't fix the mistake, but hopefully they will remember. Stop being an a$$ and try supporting that which your child loves, whether you understand it or not, as long as it hurts no one, leave it alone. There are so many horrible things they could be involved in, after all.
