  • I feel so many of these at the same time everyday. I can't wait for the day I can look back and I can not feel the hurt anymore

  • I'll go on Minecraft and give her a diamond cause I feel sorry for her D:

  • this made me cry

  • The best way to deal with grief? Check out our video "Cope Cakes."

  • How tender! I love the innocence of children. She is precious!

  • who wrote the words and music to the song in the background?

  • You can't buy the same boyfriend either :(

  • Too bad u cant buy a new grandpa

  • There's an error here. Writer is NOT 'neglected wife'. I am Chrissy-ma of UK.

  • This is a very touching, and easily understood illustration of how a more adult person feels and reacts in grief. Thank you.

  • how cute she is :)

  • Well it's helpful for us developmental psychology students.. and helpful to teachers as well.. so there ;)

  • Why would some1 VIDEO TAPE THAT LOL

  • @PhobiaGuy da fuq

    I'll give children all the chocolate I want and if their parents die of AIDS or some other shit then I'll look them in the eye and say "WANT SUM CHOKOLAT LOLOLOLOLOL"

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol Well Mike, i see from your profile that your occupation is 'pissing of your teachers' and it shows that from your comments to me that you make a point of antagonising people with obviously ridiculous nonsense.

    If NJ is New Jersey, then I'm sure they are proud to have you there!

    If you feel the need to wind others up, you have to ask yourself, what am i hoping to gain from it, and what am i overcompensating for? If you treat others so poorly, then expect it back! GROW UP!

  • @PhobiaGuy Well PhobiaGuy, I see from YOUR profile that you don't want to try making content, and you have already terrorized someone else who looks like he has sense in him (Lockjaw95). Did you know that a "Hypnotherapist" isn't even a real job? It's just an excuse for a job, so basically you get paid for waving your little fucking pocket watch or whatever you do, and people believe whatever you say afterwards. Fucking stupid people thinking you are a "professional".

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol Do you help people to get over life crippling issues? NO! You are a hater, and if that's the best you can do for this world, that makes you a waste of space!

    Your ignorance shows of what you know about hypnotherapy (watches? you fool!) I am employed by a HOSPITAL and have used my PROFESSIONAL SKILLS in helping CANCER patients with sickness etc.

    Tell us all what you do to help another human being?

    Lockjaw95 is cut from the same cloth as you!

    Now show yourself up and reply

  • @PhobiaGuy I replied

    am I cool now

    And only faggots need to help pussies who get hurt.

    Whoever is hurt should just man up about it and let it go.

    And also, stop removing your comments, you pussy.

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol yes you are cool (feel better now?)

    Lets hope when something devastating happens to you, someone comes up to you and say "man up" but that's going to be a tall order for you isn't it?

    You are what is known in psychology as an over compensator, needing to big yourself up to cover inadequacies, everyone one here can see that!

    I can see you have pain inside you, why don't you just 'man up' and ask me for the advice you crave?

    As for removing comments, they were accidental duplicates.

  • @PhobiaGuy Let's see. You removed the original comment that started this. That wasn't a dupe.

    And, I don't need help, because you moneygrubbing fags tell people they need help, and then we pay you money to "help" us but all you are doing is vacuuming money from my wallet. And there isn't anyone else in this conversation, so I don't know who "everyone" is.

    You should stop your greedy ways and go away for a long time.

    Do it.

    Now.

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol So I removed the wrong one, woopdy doo!

    Unless I'm mistaken, a 'fag' as you put it, it a crude description of a gay person and I'm straight.

    You talk like you've had therapy? I'm guessing you didn't get on very well, this would explain your irrational hatred.

    I'm sure you'd love me to go away, well guess what?

    Oh yes I'm soooo greedy aren't I? I get quite a few youtubers who ask me for help, and I give my services for FREE.

    I wish I could help you, but you hate me too much.

  • @PhobiaGuy I don't hate you. I just think you are a faggot.

    I am done with this conversation. Don't bother replying.

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol You think? really? do you? what about the facts?...again with the faggot thing? I say again, isn't 'faggot' a crude way to call a gay person? I am married with a son! (yes i know gay people can be married with a son)....Seriously, does everyone who upsets you get the 'faggot' treatment? I have no idea what I supposedly did to you, I just offered 'people' advice and you spat out poison, it was a shame on you, and you know it, don't you?

    NOW I'M DONE!

  • @PhobiaGuy Psst

    umad?

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol if you died I laugh :D

  • ITT: LITTLE KID DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HOW LIFE WORKS.

    Stupid parent, don't buy her goldfish if she doesn't understand how life works.

  • Bloody hell its a fish for God sakes just buy a new one

    I really like the way she told her the fish died

    Your fish... DIED.

    the look on that little girls face was priceless

  • @c0nqu3r3rlol OMG! that is sooo true and when she i throwing it in the toliet :) POLP!

  • finally..nemo escaped!!

  • I might be losing someone very close to me and I'm going thru all of these

    first denial, I denied that anything could happen to him and that everything was going to be ok

    second anger, I was angry over everything, so I got angry towards him

    I never experienced the bargaining stage...

    now I'm in the depression/numbness stage...

    it's weird how for everyone, the stages of grief are almost always exactly the same

  • i know these people the moms name is Bryton Carns

  • i know who these people are the moms name is bryton

  • ah the old "sleeping" trick. I remember i said that when my first fish died as i'm sure my children will too someday

  • The classic line " Hes sleeping"

  • my goodness this video made me cry wow!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • what song is this

  • im a psychologists just coming out of grad school and i have to say that this video is one of the best vids i have ever seen. things that deal with life and emotions and the process of why we go through things has always caught my mind. and i am so sorry for your loss my little one. but dont you worry mommy will get you a new fishy. this is a very good video and i just thought you should know that.

  • 3:00 - 4:34 got me. :'(

  • Last year, my health teacher showed us this video in health. Many people in the class shead at least a tear. Today I lost my dog. She lived a good long life, and I hate she had to die without her family at her side, but I know its part of life. My brother, on the other hand... He's only 8, so I watched as he went through these precise steps, on a slightly greater scale. Death is no small thing, when its the death of one you've learned the importance of responsibility and love on, especially.

  • OMG THATS SO SAD...

  • Oh my god.... I cried :'(

  • this same thing happened or should i say is happening to me still because i can refer this to my mother's death when i was 6 years old. see, at this point in time, you should be grateful that you still have parents ( for most of you )

    and to those who don't have parents and they passed away at an older age, at least you didn't feel like a loner and everyone actually cared for you.

    to those who never say tier parents, I'm sorry. omg, i'm crying...

  • R.I.P Sprinkles ;(

  • Did anyone else cry watching this? ...yeah...just me?

  • @Janetta92993 i did aswell :( :L

  • what a beautiful little girl so cute:D

  • What makes me wanna cry is to see a mother using her daughter's sorrow in order to make a video!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @valejaidar I cant believe people dont understad she did a great job explaining the girl the death process.

  • Comment removed

  • what do you think we should do with him (satan talk: flush him down the toilet muhahahahaha }:)

  • could someone please tell me what the song used in this video is??

  • that mom is harsh

  • Don't think of me as cold hearted because I understand how this feels to kids but I kind of feel that the death of a goldfish is not as big of a deal as the death of a person or even of a dog or cat

  • I hate mortality

  • Way to go lady. You posted the stages of grief on youtube using your daughter and a dead goldfish. I learned more from a giraffe sinking in quicksand. This is unnecessary.

  • @db247310 LOL that giraff! I think i've watched a billion times!

  • "i promise i'll see you again" :'''( poor kid

  • On April 12 , 2011 I got a hamster that I have always wanted ... and yesterday I had gone out to the vet because it was sick ... And my mom got a phone call this morning saying that he died ...but never told me that he did when I came back from school. He meant so much to me ... It was such a sickening feeling as I opened the box and realized my mom had replaced the hamster with one that looked very similar to it . I knew it wasn't the one as soon as I grabbed the pale , old box .

  • This is an incredibly sensitive explanation of grief and really touched my heart. Thank you.

  • @reidrules45 Dude. When your close relative or whatever dies, would you like to get the local 5 O'Clock all up in your face? I really don't think so, at least if you have two braincells that sometimes sorta interact with each other. This is actually kinda disturbing. Like, the mom is enjoying watching her little girl's grief. Voyeurism. It's kinda sick.

  • Sitting on the toilet will never be the same again for that girl.. She wears the same clothes in the whole video so I guess all of this happened in one or two days? so short for a first encounter with death :D I'm still not over my kitty dying 12 years ago

  • We should never be ironic about anyone's feelings. This only prooves that the girl in question has got a beautiful and sensible little heart and good for her; I hope she will always be as compassionate as she's now, towards anyone and anything on her way... True blessing! ;*

    A.B.;*

  • My husbands aunt has been dying from cancer in a hospital and I feel very bad about this, the more that I know her in person and I really like her as a human. This is the first time that someone whom I personally know, is about to pass away, so it's pain for me. I was not fully aware of the situation at my grandma's funeral as I was a child and no-one explained me what happened that time... I only understood that when I grew up and it was very bad experience to me... :-(

  • Stupid and sad over a fucking fish....please.

  • Stupid

  • @shore469 This is NOT at all stupid! :-( Stupid are people who don't understand... A heart of a child is so innocent and pure that it will mourn even an animal - and this way, the child shall learn about death which will prepare them to understand what happens when a human dies... I was a child when my beloved grandma died. I did not remember my other grandparents as they died before I was born. But, I wasn't truly aware of what was happening. And I was 6 years old that time... I miss her alot.

  • @aishakafeel

    I am just seeing this post. I necer wrote that horrible statement. I am thinking one of my kids or their freinds got on here and did that.

  • @shore469 Also, I think children should be able to understand the nature of death and if you are not able to experience grief for an animal, then how can you grief for human life...? ;* It is her very own experience. It should be respected. And I find it ridiculous that someone can actually have fun with posting it on youtube for everyone to see and laugh and say stupid things... Poor girl! :-( I am with her in her grief for every living creature on this Earth... :-(

  • Just my opinion, no kid should experience this. You could have told her he's gone and make it easier for her.

    Couldn't stand watching a suffering kid even if its just for a dead fish.

  • @johnkx you need to understand that it's better for the kid to get through the truth, if it was a family member ok you would be right, but a goldfish is a nice way to break the ice. The girl is better of that it happened like this. Take away the camera and it would be even better :D The kid will be a lot more confused later in her life if people keep stuffing half truths in her mind. She learned a lot more than not to put a round peg in a square hole that day.

  • I KNOW!!!!!!! A WHOLE 90 MINUTES!!

  • oh btw >> vincent i comment :DD

  • we talked on this persons video for the entire class period O-O!!!

  • Im sorry Sprinkles. WHY DID IT HAVE TO END SO SUDDEN?

  • ........ sorry for my outburst.... Rest In Peace Sprinkles.

  • .........

  • XDD he didnt like how u DIDNT feed him for a week

  • Damn. MY GODDAMN FISH SUFFOCATED.

  •  ......suffacted?>>...

  • which would it be? suffocate or drown?

  • e.e....your fish is retarded....

  • He got trapped under a rock formation forruging for food. And his gills got closed shut. Which one would it be? drowned or suffocated?

  • what happend O,e...

  • your mean TT~TT i love sprinkles...<3

  • @LordZan15 Poor fish. My fish was suicidal.

  • what are you talking about???

  • you sick bastard!!! >:O

  • I shall go onto ebay and buy one of those goats that faint when something scares them!!!

  • ebay :D

  • >~> if its been four years she upgraded to like a goat or somthing

  • @LordZan15 GOATS CAN DIGEST TIN CANS SO IF SHE FORGETS TO FEED IT HE'LL BE FINE. AND SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO FLUSH THE GOAT. AND GO THROUGH THOSE STAGES AGAIN.

  • @awesomenico900 XDDD wow lol

  • @LordZan15 its true. goats are awesome. I SHOULD BUY ONE RIGHT NOW!!! Where can you get a goat??

  • POOR SPRINKLES!!!!!!!!! HE WAS SUCH A GOOD FISH!!!!

  • @awesomenico900 theyl get a new one ._.

  • @awesomenico900 dont worry nico im sure she will forget in 10 seconds about her gold fish v.v

  • @LordZan15 how do you know for sure?? -.-

  • @awesomenico900 we just have to hope man TT~TT...

  • @LordZan15 well it has been four years. but she probably still REMEMBERS!!

  • im glad you recorded this, we can learn from this. use this as a tool for to teach other kids. we do not need to shelter our kids.

  • i was keeped away from death when i was a young child.so i thought i would watch this to help me to help the young child inside of me deal with this.thank you so much.

  • If only it were this easy but, in the end, thank you for this.

    My father passed a few weeks ago and we never had a good relationship. He was an alcoholic and he drank himself to death. I found out about his death a week after his funeral because members of his family hid the information from me. I'm in the depression stage, but to see this little girl move through grief and emerge so gracefully, makes me feel even the slightest bit of hope even if - to the outsider - it's just a goldfish.

  • Oh, honey, are you sad? Here, let me shove a video camera in your face, everyone needs to see this.

  • @HollyBee9000 soo true hey kiddo let me just stick this near ur face please be ur self

  • Comment removed

  • Recording from a kid's childhood are priceless...even though we may have a bunch throughout their growing-up years. Finally, if some survive and they can see who they were as chilluns', it was worth every effort. I have mine from 1965, three years old and chattering along, and some from later. The ones of my (now) teen kids are just as precious. Don't let the HIPPA nay-sayers confuse you; these snap-shots are gold.

  • yes tell them about death but dont tell them about Hell like Morons

  • As soon as you see the water is cloudy like that check for amonia levels, hardness, acidity ... they have test kits at your local petshops, ebay, ...  before you get any new fish, please, 1st learn how to properly take care of them. These are live beings, not toys.

  • I like this video. It demostrates all stages of grief clearly and honestly. It also tells me that you are losing fish constantly. Tittle girl like her could not otherwise know what to do with a dead fish. I used to have aquariums for years and if you still have'em I must share few helpful tips:

    1. 1" of fish on every 1 gallon of water in the aquarium.

    2. If you have a 2.5 gallon tank, you can't have 2 goldfish in it, because they grow too fast and produce more amonia than any other fish.

  • Did Bridgett Ever Die?? O:

  • shes a beautiful baby

  • Looks like a piece right from a movie- nicely done!

  • Made me sad :(

    I wouldn't videotape this though.

  • oh no cutie :(

  • Beautiful

  • She is a little angel who loves her pets. But I hate seeing children crying. finally it's the sweet heart of a child.

  • Let's kill the other fish and see what happens. ;) Bye bye fishes!!

  • guys relax about the mother recording it. I bet this all happened in one day, the little girl must be over it the next day, her mother even said she'll get a new fish. I doubt she'll record her grieving over a person close to her passed away. It's just a fish, they had others in the fish tank.

  • HOW BAD OF A MOTHER DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO RECORD THIS?!

  • @ThePangPrincess You DO realize that by the mother recording it, when there is a much bigger loss in that child's life, the mother can show her the stages once more, and the girl will GET it, rather than a less personal way, where she might not get it.

  • @ThePangPrincess not your kid, not your problem

  • What's the song used in this video?

    Besides, I think this video is very helpful and beautiful.

  • Ok, I just found it: Freedy Johnston - This Perfect world

  • I don't think it's good to teach children to anthropromorphize animals especially fish, spiders and insects and other animals that don't have emotions same way as us and dogs and horses and other higher mammals with mammal brains. Not cartoon characters and teddy bears either though of course you don't cruelly steal the teddy bear :P.

    Better to value people, fish is food.

  • @stiaa04 I dont think it was about teaching her anything. The little girl was just being what she was..a little girl, with a pet that she lost. Mom didn't have to teach her anything. She was just being there during one of the little girl's saddest moments of her childhood. Its sad how most of today's parents program and control their kids to live artificial lives because of all the knowledge and advancements of science and technology. Just let them be. Let them cry over a dead pet.

  • @Jeremyy123 I'm not saying that she is teaching I'm saying that society at large is teaching, not just this but lots of flawed stuff that adults and teens know easily is not literally true, and so parents should teach their kids that rather than playing along with it. Of course being there in the moment is ok I don't think she should suddenly start counteracting the belief in the middle of the grief. She played along with the goldfish having human emotion in the time long before this was filmed.

  • @stiaa04 Maybe we should also start breaking the news to all the kids in the world that Santa does not exist. And teach them real stuff like hmmm..start thinking about getting a job soon if Obama screws things up.

  • @Jeremyy123 I never had the santa story presented as something true. I did probably have some facinating things like ufo stories or other mysteries that might have exited me, I was into dinosaurs when I was little. When I became older, astronomy then computers, games, music, art, there are lots of things that kids find exciting, facinating and wonderful that are real.

    The faulty assumption that kids need the unreal stuff they like is just cause you have it on a plate.

  • @Jeremyy123 For that matter it's a false choise cause you say "stop doing kidlike fantasy start giving them adult serious stuff" when the real choise is "stop doing kidlike fantasy, start giving them real kidlike stuff". Oh and that is fantasy that you let them think is real - as opposed to the perfectly fine fantasy that the kids are fully aware isn't.

  • @stiaa04 Don't suggest people to try and modify the emotional bond their kids have with their pets. It's what it is, and they will maybe care less when they grow up, but that will be up to tem.

  • Ha!

  • Great video, cute and lovely. Only thing is it strikes me as rather cruel, fine film it, but don't waggle the camera in your daughter's face, give her a cuddle and help her come to terms with the death of an animal instead of messing with her emotions and putting them up on the internet.

    I can talk though, the things I put my niece and nephew through! :-P

  • This would make any grown man cry..myself included

  • I think videotaping it is alright, though. It's fascinating, she's perfect, and it doesn't harm the child.

    The crying at the toilet bowl was priceless.

  • I love how she says she promises she'll see him again.

    awh poor baby ;3

    guess it's good to learn about this at an early age..

  • This mom has a sexy voice.

  • poor little girl

  • So , dead is a normal stage in human's life, we all the parents should teach our children see it as which is, that's reality, is part of our lives, no matter what. =) what we have to do is just to be close to those who need us with love to pass across this road

  • I wish I have asister like her

    she has a pure childhood feelings

    god save her

  • @mjsm111 well i have andall kids before 5 are cute and pure

  • interesting to see that the ones supporting the video seem to be human services professionals or have education on the grief process. The video was wonderfully done, the mother was very supportive by guiding her child through the process instead of covering it up or pushing her, and at the end of the day the child learned a hard life lesson in a safe setting.

  • That was a very good video!

  • @aimeeblake099 how cold hearted can you be

  • @giorgosntoulos2 how does that comment make me cold hearted give me a break

  • @aimeeblake099 well commenting on a video that videotapes a child sorrow and uploading it without the child knowing what the hell is happening by saying that was a very good video tells me all i need to know and it gives me the right to call you and all other people that are "educated" or entairtened by such videos coldhearted

  • @giorgosntoulos2 Give me a fucking break, grief is a factor of life it happens to everybody. Saying that this is a good video about the stages of grief does not make me coldhearted. It is not like this mother killed the goldfish intentionally just to put her daughter through this heartbreak. It IS in fact a good video about the stages of grief. So good in fact that after watching this i was brought to tears.

  • @giorgosntoulos2 That doesn't mean that i felt nothing for this girl going through the pain of losing her goldfish. You have no right to call me cold hearted you have no idea who i am or how i feel about things. So seriously shut up i wasn't being rude or displacing this little girls feelings and emotion as entertainment. It was a good video and that is that so chill seriously.

  • no offense but why were you videotaping it

    its just like youve planned it

    no offense but videotaping this is like youve planned it all

    sorry for saying this btw

  • Oh no! - unbelievable - did you think this was good viewing? if so, I you need to examine what's going on here for the child, not you. - sad!
