@cldplywshtthmnlghts3 Yes, especially the part with the stressed-out mother shrieking at her crying baby....that always breaks my heart leading to the husband bullying and beating his wife...those two scenes always deeply touch me.

It is very powerful....and I am glad that you enjoyed it. Sometimes a visual hits us in a visceral way - and that reaction creates a profound inner connection. :-)

MensaWarrior, showed this as an intro to a class presentation on Modeling/Observational Learning in Operant Conditioning, and WHAT A RESPONSE. A hush fell over the room, it really set the tone. It's particularly powerful with parents, in a good way: if you lead like the dad in the final scene, your children will learn that behavior, and you will know that you are doing a wonderful job in making a great person (which in turn makes the world a better place).

I have shown this to my Psychology classes for years....and EVERY TIME I tell myself that I will not cry, that the hairs on my neck will not stand up....and then I find myself at the lectern fighting back those very same reactions. This is a powerful testament to the modeling of behavior and the modeling of attitudes. Maybe it's a good thing - a human thing - to cry over this.

And/or get goosebumps?

Does anyone else cry every single time they watch this??

that video made my blood run cold, and not many things do that to me.

This video is so true.

A parent is racist, the child will be too

parents should really think about how they bring up their kids

Wow....This Video is Very Powerful!!!! This is a Must See for Parents!!!!

How insane that so few have seen this jewel. 100 million views wouldn't be too many: considering how children are often taught & treated.
