This episode kind of speaks for the decade that it was made in, although it was made (1961?) prior to a lot of the significant events that occurred in the decade. Rebellious youth ("Counter-culture"), adults/parents having a difficult time coming to terms with how quickly everything was changing (Nixon's silent majority, which would account for the inability of the adults to fight back against Anthony)... and of course Perry Como not having a place in it.

It's the 12th Imam that disappeared down a well and can only come about with a nuke exchange between Israel and Iran.

I can't even listen to Perry Como! Didja ever see The Simpsons TreeHouse of Horror where Bart turned Homer into a Jack-in-the-Box?
-
the ironic thing is ,,, parents of millennials acted this way to turn the Millennials into little monsters,,lol

This episode is a masterpiece of epic proportions. I am literally stunned at all of the gems found only in... The Twilight Zone. (Buuuhhmmm BEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHM... Bawm... BEEEEHHHHHMMMM...)

Loved the Simpsons take off on this one.

@kurtb8474 Just like what Freud said - if a child had the power he'd destroy the world
-
on Johnny Bravo they did a parody of this and talking tina

@Theearl444 If we ever see a parody of this with Haruhi as that reality warping kid, I'd be very impressed!

It's like if Haruhi suzumiyah was an evil tyrant... still, I would like to say it'll all be cool. If he grows up he might mature, if he doesn't, show him anime and at least he'd make the world interesting. XD
I think the dilemma was that no one was willing to kill a cute, blue-eyed, pudgy-cheeked little boy, despite the fact that he was using his power to totally screw up the whole world. Except for the one guy after he got blitzed on peach brandy. Kids always want their own way.
Superior storytelling. That's what the Zone was all about.
