Been there, done that. One afternoon, when I was 8 there was this film on the telly that I really wanted to watch so I faked being ill to stay home.

@@BB-un2ts my mum used to work in a care home, so she had a bit of medical training (compulsary back then), but we still had mental health days. We have a family history of things like depression, anxiety and the like, so if I had a really bad day, I could stay home for the day to relax

I faked being sick at school to go home, but looking back I think I was really depressed that day, and my mom could tell so she let me do it. Cause she was usually very on top of us getting sick.
One time I was having an anxiety episode because of school, and I faked being sick one morning to try and get out of it, only my mom called my bluff. But then I spiraled into a complete panic attack and she let me stay home anyway because of it. Fun times :(
TW // Vent Just in case someone reading is sensitive to that Yeah I lived like that with school for about 3 months. Constant trips to the counselors, breaking down in class and before school every day, and not being able to enjoy time after school because of just being scared of going whenever that was. I don’t remember why I felt so bad at all but I know that my parents kept telling me to push through it. I don’t actually hate school after all that honestly, it’s kinda weird, but it definitely was an odd experience nonetheless.
I remember as a kid being told I wasn't allowed to watch tv or play a game when I was sick. And my kid brain just accepted it but as an adult I find that ridiculous. I have a chronic illness now and I can't sleep forever, when I'm stuck in bed I play games or to help me fall asleep I'll be watching vids. You're allowed to relax when you're sick. You can't spend all day staring at the ceiling when you're not sleeping.

To me it looks more like a cartoon targeting kids than a video targeting parents. The point is to make the kids watching thinking it's bad behavior and they shouldn't do it, not telling parents how to handle the situation for real. I sure hope no parent watching this and be like "yep, I totally gonna go that route and be a complete manipulative assbutt and play mind game that gonna handicaps them for a few days, weeks or even year depending on the manipulation instead of explaining the kid that it's bad behavior directly"

Idk man, if I had a kid and it was playing sick I would talk to them about it and why they are doing it, its not always just a simple "I dont want to write that test" mental health days are important and lets say he was actually sick, if you tell a sick kid, their favourite youtuber/star/musician whatever is gonna show up at their school, I think most sick kids would say they feel fine just to see them, so thats not really proving anything xD
My parents were more than happy to let me have a mental health day once or twice a year if I needed it, they'd go ahead and cover for me saying I was sick.
yeah, beside, it's a stupid plan from the get go. If your plan is to skip a test there is only two outcome possible: 1) You get an automatic F if you are not aloud to take the test again 2) You have to take the test anyway at a later date (potentially even the very day you came back) So it's much better to talk to the kid and explain him that there is no point in faking illness rather than going along with it and just put it in an even worst situation. Now he skiped two day of school and he'll have to catch up with all the lessons he didn't have somehow.
Yeah, I think my parents would be more worried about me if I ever played sick than if I really would be sick, because they didn't raise me to lie to them, so it would mean something was seriously wrong.
But seriously though Cough drops are actual medicine so don’t I’m telling this to the eight-year-old out there don’t eat cough drops unless you actually need them to clear your throat when you’re actually sick tl:dr don’t do drugs kids unless given by a doctor on a prescription
im fucking sick of the mentality that you can't do anything but sleep when you're sick. human beings can only sleep for so long, and staring at the ceiling isn't going to help you feel better. Playing games, watching tv, reading, etc is all perfectly fine to do when sick.
You do realize you’re supposed to just relax right? Otherwise you are going to fucking over exert your body? Literally the first step to recovering is to rest and try to not love to much
@@LittleLillypad yeah, and reading or watching tv isn't going to over exert you. video games aren't either, unless you're some idiot who runs around their room while gaming?
@@LittleLillypad what’s the difference going to be in lying down staring at the ceiling and lying down watching a movie? The difference is one is going to bore you and make you feel more depressed, and the other will at least keep your mind busy while your body rests. Same with reading a book or listening to music etc. They all allow your body to rest and your mind to keep from going crazy from boredom.
@@elenalizabeth sleep buddy. You’re supposed to fucking sleep. Not watch tv or play a game. You are supposed to sleep so your body can do it’s damn job. No wonder y’all get depressed all the fucking time over nothing. You won’t rest and let your body just heal. You just HAVE to do something instead of relaxing with your boredom and using your imagination
I like how he wrote himself into the story by having kids idolize him and calling himself cool. He's been doing that a lot lately hasn't he? Can't help but hog the spotlight for himself lol.
@Becausepeopledotoomuch_ He could've made a youtuber up though. He could've said "Oh my god, it's TriStarMan!" or whatever, but instead he put himself in xD
I hate when people think that just because you don’t feel well, means you can’t do literally anything. Sitting in bed watching some television doesn’t make me any less sick.
When you’re sick and tired you have two options. You could either sit all day doing nothing, or sit all day watching TH-cam. But if you’re so sick you can’t move your thumbs, you should probably sit all day in the hospital. When I was sick and had to miss school, my parents told me I shouldn’t be playing video games. They’re like, if you’re sick, you better be productive or just suffer while being bored.
I mean, it depend how sick you are. if you got a big enough fever you probably need to sleep and take medicine to lower the fever, not over stimulate your brain with video games lol / videos. I've been in situation where I was too sick to do anything but sleep it off with antibiotic and other where I could watch tv/ play video game just fine after just a nap. Not all illness are created equal.
@@professorp1 I didn't have youtube when I was younger Heck the Internet was Dail up and the only thing that was entertaining was class TV or paying on my PS1/GBC
I mean the kid actors were actually pretty good in this video. I just think it's funny that Mikey's acting made it seem like he was literally on his deathbed
Well, looks like the "changing lives" thing isn't true in this case, because this kid has watched a bunch of Dhar Mann videos, yet he still decides to lie until his mom tricked him.
That is literally the same family from the one where the older brother bullied the autistic little brother. And the mom is literally all of the Dhar Mann character’s moms too. Also are the moms all in like a Facebook group or something where their quote is “What happens in the dark, always comes to light.”
Moral of the story: mom uses mind tricks and lies to teach her kid a lesson and makes him lose the chance of actually taking a selfie with his favorite youtuber
I find it interesting parents on tv and stuff always go to call the doctor because my parents never do that. My parents just give me some medicine and go to work. And you need to book the doctor’s appointment a couple days in advance and usually I only feel sick for the morning and I’m better by the afternoon so that would be stupid and you don’t need to go to the ER for an upset stomach.
Yeah, same here. Then again, Dutch GPs are like that as well. If you go to the doctor for anything non life threatening, they'll usually tell you to keep an eye on it for a week or two and see if it gets worse. Most things will heal by themselves in 2 weeks time, apparently xD This obviously doesn't apply to wounds or broken bones xD
it would make sense in the UK because you have a large set of tests in yr 6 (when ur 10 years old), but like theyre in the U.S so it dont make any sense
From what I remember, in american schools we use "exam," "test," and "quiz" interchangeably "Exam" could be any kind of thing where you're asked questions about previous lessons and either finish it in class or don't Yall can correct me if that was just my schools though
@@peytongolding7544 Even so, the only 'big tests' I had in elementary school (4-12 y/old) were nation wide tests that as far as I know cannot be postponed. Also, wouldn't it make sense for the teacher to give the kid the test as soon as he gets back to school anyway? You can't just skip a test xD
I overthink things a lot and One time I somehow believed that ALL My molars turned into cavities over night,and I had never gotten one before so I was terrified, I faked throwing up twice so That my mom would have to cancel, And felt so bad I Literally cried for 2 days after and had trouble talking. My family was getting worried about me. In the end I told my mom expecting to be grounded but she just laughed and told me not to do it again. This kid was WAY smarter than me. Edit: omg,thx for the likes!
That mum needs some help. Like how tf is the kid learning ANYTHING? "I wanted to teach you not to lie, so I lied" okay thanks mum. "GoOd LuCk WiTh YoUr TeSt! Haha" okay mum. You tought your kid not to trust you and instead of helping him you just let him fail the test. Like kids do stupid stuff, they have to learn but not like this. This is teaching nobody anything. Oh no wait I learned that the mum is a bully, nice.
The fact that the child is faking to be sick just because they dont want to go to school is concerning. The mother should've talked to the child about the school instead of saying he's lying and doing nothing else.
Also, why is this mother only seeing her kid for like 5 minutes every morning. If you know your kid is sick, don't you wake up an hour early, so you can make him breakfast and sit by his bed for a while to see if he needs anything?
@@Roozyj yes, thank you! Make your kid some tea and give them a warm hot water bottle, bring them a bucket if they feel sick and can't get up fast enough. My mum also told me, after I told her about this video, that she would've given me props for being so creative and putting so much effort into faking the sickness xD. I love my mum.
This mom really said "Oh my kid is dying, whelp, anyways, time to leave him on his own for hours, not take him to the doctor, take away his ps5, and physiologically abuse him by making him think he missed out on meeting his favorite youtuber"
"WHAT HOW DID YOU FIND OUT" "yeah remember when you told your little brother all about your plan? and then insulted him? for some reason that made him snitch"
Don't you learn from your first superhero movie that you don't tell others about your plan... Most of the time telling others especially the hero is the downfall of the villain. In such a situation you are the villain and should not tell the hero aka your brother who would obviously tell the mother, or the mother will come in while you are telling your brother your genius plan
So the mom only meet her kids in the morning, before school, and isn't around later checking on the kid's health regularly after she gets home from work? Btw, all this lying on the mom's part is a nice way to give a kid trust issues...
Once I pretended to be sick for too long and my parents took me to the doctor. They drew blood and stuff but they couldn’t figure out why I was sick. I’m not sure if they know I was faking it. I would never just fake being sick though. If I was a little bit sick I would just exaggerate my symptoms
Also /sad violin noises/ I was constantly bullied at school by teachers, classmates and (worst part) high schoolers would harass younger kids everyday and principle never cared. /end sad violin noises/ I think better and deeper story would explore this and put some light on themes of mental health of kids and bullying. Instead of lazy kid wants to play ps5 all day.
My opinion as well is if a kid actually fakes being sick because they don't want to take a test that's an issue that needs to be explored. Why is he scared of taking the test? Why are his grades bad? Does he need help? Can he not concentrate? Has he fallen behind so he doesn't grasp the subject anymore? Etc. I personally grew up with undiagnosed ADHD so I had a lot of issues keeping up with my peers. Plus bullying and mental health issues, so this is something that could have been deeper, but turned into kid is lazy and lies.
One time my mom didn't believe me when I said I felt sick (even though I had never once faked being sick before) and she forced me to go to school and then I got sick in the middle of gym class which basically was just adding insult to injury as it was embarrassing as hell
It’s so weird. The child is sick with high temperature, but mom didn’t use thermometer to check and didn’t give him any medicine?? In my country we at least give kids some hot tea with honey, some medicine to ease coughing on throat pain, ect.
I hated missing school in general, at least from secondary school up, because I'd have to catch up later and I learn mostly by listening and asking questions. So missing school for me would mean I'd have to (shiver) read books... I hardly even skipped lectures in college, even though that was totally allowed. I just didn't read the literature xD
If anything this shows how ineffective Dhar Manns lessons are. Like he exist in his own universe, and these people watch his videos and are STILL this mean 🤣
Not only did the kid have obvious trust issues by the end of it but there is a quick line of "I got an F. Again." Which could imply a lot of different things all of which are bad. Like does he study but still fail and just gave up this time? Does he not study cause he is playing video games? Does he not study for other reasons? The fact his brother seems to also be younger than him but they have the same teacher just comes off as a concern as well. What is going on with that kid?
"Gotta have opposites dark and light, light and dark in painting. It's like in life. Gotta have a little sadness once in a while so you know when the good times come. - Bob Ross
you can tell when someone is sick and if their cough is genuine with coughing you have to really commit to it which might actually hurt most of the time people just look miserable when they’re sick
Wow, that mom is the true villain here. Throing all that "evidence" at her kid in the car? And that boy said he was scared of the test. Idk, maybe instead of planning a big reveal, talk to your kid and help him with his fears? I'd like to think that no parents irl are like that, but unfortunately, there's way too many horrible parents.
for some reason seeing characters fake being sick has always made me feel really weird inside especially when i see everyone else being so worried about them knowing it's a lie
every time on one of these videos - i think "do they really think humans talk like that?" Or do things like that? Do teachers in Dhar mann world creep up on random cars in parking lots to tell them the test is still happening? Do mothers in Dhar Mann World pretend to be detectives and store evidence in their handbags? And do celebrities just go to random schools for meet and greets? Because i doubt that even happens in the real world.
My parents wouldn't let me play video games when I stayed home from school. Except that time I had H1N1. Of course, honestly, most the time, I was faking it too. (My parents are aware of this)
Lol. Relatable. Although I never really “wanted” to miss school as it hasn’t gotten too hard yet. “Real school” must be especially rough if kids would rather be sick.
Yeah I alway hate missing school because of how difficult it is to catch up after a day. My teachers have the rule where if you miss it is your job to find out what you were missing by asking your classmates. And your classmates don't actually know what the hell is going on so you ask them and they are like 'uhm. Idk, I think we did this? Maybe.' then you don't know what you missed and are incredibly confused, and the teacher is like 'ok so your assignment from yesterday, it should be done today, make sure it's turned in'
This Dhar Mann video illustrates a terrible way to discipline your children. It is important to demonstrate the morals and values you want your children to learn, and if you comeback lies from your children with lies of your own, you are not teaching your child how to behave. IN the end they will see your dynamic as a game of deceiving their parents. Worse, the children will end up not trusting you in the long run. Dhar Mann is really going down hill.
There was this one time I had really bad period cramps and I was struggling to even get out of bed. I really wanted to go to school but I also kinda wanted my dad to tell me I shouldn’t. I told my dad I wanted to go despite being in so much visible pain and he just told me to get ready for school then. So I literally crawled out of bed and started getting dressed but half way through it I felt like I would throw up if I kept moving. My dad just stood there watching me and waiting. I thought he would stop me because I could barely walk but he didn’t. I eventually had to say I couldn’t go to school and I felt really bad about it. I felt like I was just skipping school for no good reason since my dad was encouraging me to still go. I felt bad all day because of it.
If men got periods, they'd get the whole week off. I don't really see a problem with taking a day off when your body is functionally sick or injured because of a period.
That reaction from the kid when being told he would be going to see the doctor would be enough for any normal parent to know the kid is faking. When I was a child, if I happened to be unwell and not able to go to the school, then going to the doctor would be the bare minimum done because at least the doctor can work out what is making me unwell. I'd have no choice in the mattee beyond going to school or going to see the doctor. I don't get why this so called mother would see the kid respond like that and then not tell him thise are the two options, either make sure your kid is well, or send him to school, don't just leave him at home without knowing what's causing him to be unwell.
At least this mother is just like "lmao nice try" Still really weird and the message still sounds more like an "I'm stalking you" than an "actions have consequences" kind of thing, but hey the mother isn't as brutal so it's a start
My pro tip. Drink so much water until you feel slightly nauseous. To the doctor, your stomach sounds like you have gastrointestinal flu. Written sick for three days. Always helped in my childhood. : D
Pour water into the toilet is weak! As a kid I would trigger my gag reflex so I would actually throw up to fake being sick XD. Not the greatest life choice. But it worked 100% because you actually throw up XD
I don't think I've ever actually pretended to be sick to stay home, but I've definitely exaggerated when I was *actually* sick. Got a tiny cough and a slight stomachache? "Mom I feel bad" "okay then go back to sleep lol"
This video really did leave me with so many questions. Does she just see him on a morning then literally leave him until the next morning? Is he the same age as his brother if they were both taking the same test?
I used to have a genuine issue w puking before school every day bc of anxiety and my mom would literally just drive me to school w a grocery bag in case I had to puke in her car. This kids mom is so soft.
3:19 You laugh, but I was like that in middle and high school. My mom was of the mindset of "you're old enough to decide whether you should stay home or not," but I still wanted her opinion. And I felt bad if I stayed home cause my older brother would stay home for the smallest things, so it felt like I was abusing my power too. Also skipping school was way more stressful to me than just going while I felt bad.
I have a theory about dhar man, I believe he’s a tyrant and a dictator who forcefully took over whatever world these characters are living in. He and his followers brainwashed them into admiring and worshipping him as a god, and be absolutely perfect human beings, which is why everyone is obsessed with him. Then he replaced all forms of media with dhar mann videos and dhar mann themed ripoff games. He then made millions of his subjects live in horrible conditions, causing the sad backstories from the characters. However no one blamed him and kept worshiping him. But some people woke up from their hypnosis, and found out about Dhar Mann’s evil misdoings. They created a rebellion and realized the only way to break people from their trance was to be terrible people towards the brainwashed people, which is where the dhar mann villains come from. However, they are almost never successful, as Dhar Mann had planned for this. He made the brainwashing technology so strong that the victims would be able to spread the hypnosis by telling members of the Dhar Mann Rebellion(DMR) their sob stories. At this point in time, the DMR is running low on members and they are losing hope every minute. But they continue to send people into battle to try and save the civilians and take Dhar Mann down once and for all. The kid here who was faking an illness, for example, is one of the best spies in the DMR. He focuses specifically on this family, because before Dhar Mann took over, they were his mother and brother and they were the happiest family ever. But when the take over happened, he knew he had to potentially sacrifice that all in order to save them. He cleverly pretends to be one of them, while still being a jerk to them and slowly getting them to break free from their hypnosis. Might add onto this later idk

you should have eaten those cough drops, mikey!

Or study for the test
Agreed!! Faking a fever is the worse way to fake sickness there's nothing a thermometer debunk if it's just a fever.
I’ll think about that (JK)
This kid is such a chad he is being called a loser by he's brother but continues to hold the urge not to tell.

FR my bedroom is smaller than that and I sleep with two other people.

Honestly! that decor was not made for a kid, that’s an adults room quite obviously
They probably just reuse the same bedroom set for different videos and tried to make it look like a kid’s room
Ah yes, every kid has a full-size bed in the middle of a giant empty room with their own ensuite
I think the wet towel as evidence is stupid because when I have a fever that's what my mom would put on the back of my neck/forehead.
Same with my family
Same but a hot towel
I know right. Exactly what I was thinking. When I realized she was gonna see it, I was like, just tell her that you need her to pick it up and rewet it or get a new one. But I guess I just think about things too much lol.
I also hate how she put it in her bag because someone can scrub odd places with that and it was never said it had water

1) You get an automatic F if you are not aloud to take the test again
2) You have to take the test anyway at a later date (potentially even the very day you came back)
So it's much better to talk to the kid and explain him that there is no point in faking illness rather than going along with it and just put it in an even worst situation. Now he skiped two day of school and he'll have to catch up with all the lessons he didn't have somehow.
Exactly, kids will fight a deadly disease to be like "YOOOOOO, I can't believe John Cena is in class today"
Yeah, I think my parents would be more worried about me if I ever played sick than if I really would be sick, because they didn't raise me to lie to them, so it would mean something was seriously wrong.
17:06 oh come on he didn't even eat the cough drops? They're delicious whether you're sick or not, why waste the opportunity to eat some candy?

one time my friend was like “hey fact i have some cough drops do you want one” and i was so excited. don’t you are skip out on cough drops
But seriously though Cough drops are actual medicine so don’t I’m telling this to the eight-year-old out there don’t eat cough drops unless you actually need them to clear your throat when you’re actually sick tl:dr don’t do drugs kids unless given by a doctor on a prescription
im fucking sick of the mentality that you can't do anything but sleep when you're sick. human beings can only sleep for so long, and staring at the ceiling isn't going to help you feel better. Playing games, watching tv, reading, etc is all perfectly fine to do when sick.
I was playing water gun in the bathroom when I was sick.
You do realize you’re supposed to just relax right? Otherwise you are going to fucking over exert your body? Literally the first step to recovering is to rest and try to not love to much
@@LittleLillypad yeah, and reading or watching tv isn't going to over exert you. video games aren't either, unless you're some idiot who runs around their room while gaming?
@@LittleLillypad what’s the difference going to be in lying down staring at the ceiling and lying down watching a movie? The difference is one is going to bore you and make you feel more depressed, and the other will at least keep your mind busy while your body rests.
Same with reading a book or listening to music etc. They all allow your body to rest and your mind to keep from going crazy from boredom.
@@elenalizabeth sleep buddy. You’re supposed to fucking sleep. Not watch tv or play a game. You are supposed to sleep so your body can do it’s damn job. No wonder y’all get depressed all the fucking time over nothing. You won’t rest and let your body just heal. You just HAVE to do something instead of relaxing with your boredom and using your imagination
I like how he wrote himself into the story by having kids idolize him and calling himself cool. He's been doing that a lot lately hasn't he? Can't help but hog the spotlight for himself lol.
On the one hand, I find it kinda stupid and arrogant... but on the other hand, I can totally see myself doing the same thing. Like, why tf not xD
@@Roozyj Lol yeah it's pretty amusing.
He’s really full of himself I think and it’s so funny to me that he thinks he’s so cool and famous 😂
@Becausepeopledotoomuch_ He could've made a youtuber up though. He could've said "Oh my god, it's TriStarMan!" or whatever, but instead he put himself in xD
@Becausepeopledotoomuch_ ok
I hate when people think that just because you don’t feel well, means you can’t do literally anything. Sitting in bed watching some television doesn’t make me any less sick.
Like, what are we supposed to do? Fall in a coma until the sickness passes?
When you’re sick and tired you have two options. You could either sit all day doing nothing, or sit all day watching TH-cam. But if you’re so sick you can’t move your thumbs, you should probably sit all day in the hospital.
When I was sick and had to miss school, my parents told me I shouldn’t be playing video games. They’re like, if you’re sick, you better be productive or just suffer while being bored.
I mean, it depend how sick you are. if you got a big enough fever you probably need to sleep and take medicine to lower the fever, not over stimulate your brain with video games lol / videos.
I've been in situation where I was too sick to do anything but sleep it off with antibiotic and other where I could watch tv/ play video game just fine after just a nap. Not all illness are created equal.
yeah, even the second i get up out of bed to go to the bathroom my mom goes "arent you sick" 😃 so do i do it in the bed?

"Mikey" is very good in my opinion. I love watching videos with him starring
I mean the kid actors were actually pretty good in this video. I just think it's funny that Mikey's acting made it seem like he was literally on his deathbed
That kid’s going 110%, he should really sign up for theater
Well, looks like the "changing lives" thing isn't true in this case, because this kid has watched a bunch of Dhar Mann videos, yet he still decides to lie until his mom tricked him.
That is literally the same family from the one where the older brother bullied the autistic little brother. And the mom is literally all of the Dhar Mann character’s moms too. Also are the moms all in like a Facebook group or something where their quote is “What happens in the dark, always comes to light.”
So is the boy autistic or not? I saw a behind the scenes video and they say he is
Moral of the story: mom uses mind tricks and lies to teach her kid a lesson and makes him lose the chance of actually taking a selfie with his favorite youtuber
The classic story of the mom who cried Dhar Mann
worse she did lie to her kid like a nomal human being
Ahh yes why figure out the reesons you're kid is scerd to take a test or why are his grades so low when you can cause hime trust issuse .
I find it interesting parents on tv and stuff always go to call the doctor because my parents never do that. My parents just give me some medicine and go to work. And you need to book the doctor’s appointment a couple days in advance and usually I only feel sick for the morning and I’m better by the afternoon so that would be stupid and you don’t need to go to the ER for an upset stomach.
@Joselyn Vifquain I don’t live in the US lmao.
Yeah, same here. Then again, Dutch GPs are like that as well. If you go to the doctor for anything non life threatening, they'll usually tell you to keep an eye on it for a week or two and see if it gets worse. Most things will heal by themselves in 2 weeks time, apparently xD
This obviously doesn't apply to wounds or broken bones xD
I know, when I was younger when ever I had the flu my parents would just leave at home to sleep and I’d be better in like 2 days

As a teacher, the most unbelievable part is that they somehow got their test scores back immediately. That takes at least one planning period

plot twist… *the mom had a microphone and camera in the room*
“Well hopefully you’ll be better before the big exam tomorrow” excuse me, aren’t they like 10?
it would make sense in the UK because you have a large set of tests in yr 6 (when ur 10 years old), but like theyre in the U.S so it dont make any sense
wait you don’t have big exams in when you’re 10 years old?
No, I hadn’t heard of that happening before.
From what I remember, in american schools we use "exam," "test," and "quiz" interchangeably
"Exam" could be any kind of thing where you're asked questions about previous lessons and either finish it in class or don't
Yall can correct me if that was just my schools though
@@peytongolding7544 Even so, the only 'big tests' I had in elementary school (4-12 y/old) were nation wide tests that as far as I know cannot be postponed. Also, wouldn't it make sense for the teacher to give the kid the test as soon as he gets back to school anyway? You can't just skip a test xD
popular youtuber critiques dhar mann INSTANTLY regrets it
PLSS
Dhar mann actually made that into a video
I overthink things a lot and One time I somehow believed that ALL My molars turned into cavities over night,and I had never gotten one before so I was terrified, I faked throwing up twice so That my mom would have to cancel, And felt so bad I Literally cried for 2 days after and had trouble talking. My family was getting worried about me. In the end I told my mom expecting to be grounded but she just laughed and told me not to do it again. This kid was WAY smarter than me.
Edit: omg,thx for the likes!
That mum needs some help. Like how tf is the kid learning ANYTHING?
"I wanted to teach you not to lie, so I lied" okay thanks mum.
"GoOd LuCk WiTh YoUr TeSt! Haha" okay mum.
You tought your kid not to trust you and instead of helping him you just let him fail the test. Like kids do stupid stuff, they have to learn but not like this. This is teaching nobody anything. Oh no wait I learned that the mum is a bully, nice.
The fact that the child is faking to be sick just because they dont want to go to school is concerning. The mother should've talked to the child about the school instead of saying he's lying and doing nothing else.
@@user-hg2qi8bl2f yes talking to children is important. And helping them not making fun of them and degrading them.
Also, why is this mother only seeing her kid for like 5 minutes every morning. If you know your kid is sick, don't you wake up an hour early, so you can make him breakfast and sit by his bed for a while to see if he needs anything?
@@Roozyj yes, thank you! Make your kid some tea and give them a warm hot water bottle, bring them a bucket if they feel sick and can't get up fast enough.
My mum also told me, after I told her about this video, that she would've given me props for being so creative and putting so much effort into faking the sickness xD. I love my mum.
I love your profile picture!! :D
This mom really said "Oh my kid is dying, whelp, anyways, time to leave him on his own for hours, not take him to the doctor, take away his ps5, and physiologically abuse him by making him think he missed out on meeting his favorite youtuber"

How are you watching youtube when you are sick? Sick people do nothing but moan and sleep, I just learned.
Don't you learn from your first superhero movie that you don't tell others about your plan...
Most of the time telling others especially the hero is the downfall of the villain. In such a situation you are the villain and should not tell the hero aka your brother who would obviously tell the mother, or the mother will come in while you are telling your brother your genius plan
So the mom only meet her kids in the morning, before school, and isn't around later checking on the kid's health regularly after she gets home from work?
Btw, all this lying on the mom's part is a nice way to give a kid trust issues...
What I learned from this Dhar Mann video is how to fake being sick
Once I pretended to be sick for too long and my parents took me to the doctor. They drew blood and stuff but they couldn’t figure out why I was sick. I’m not sure if they know I was faking it. I would never just fake being sick though. If I was a little bit sick I would just exaggerate my symptoms
"Sick" kid watches Dhar Mann videos where villains always regret doing smth
Dhar Mann meanwhile: We are CHANGING LIVES
That’s pretty much how Dhar Mann is. His characters are so one dimensional that no one can relate. It can’t possibly change anything.
That whole thing was over the top and all, but my mom is just like that, she will literally rumage the trash to try and find something i did "wrong"
Totally can relate! Fortunately I don't live w my parents anymore ✌🏿

I think better and deeper story would explore this and put some light on themes of mental health of kids and bullying.
Instead of lazy kid wants to play ps5 all day.
I would'nt say "lazy" preferably troubled
My opinion as well is if a kid actually fakes being sick because they don't want to take a test that's an issue that needs to be explored. Why is he scared of taking the test? Why are his grades bad? Does he need help? Can he not concentrate? Has he fallen behind so he doesn't grasp the subject anymore? Etc.
I personally grew up with undiagnosed ADHD so I had a lot of issues keeping up with my peers. Plus bullying and mental health issues, so this is something that could have been deeper, but turned into kid is lazy and lies.
@@martipotato431 AGREED
@@martipotato431 sadly, it's dhar mann. there won't be anything like it.
@@_StarXDust_ Wouldn't expect anything else from Dahr Mann xd It's just surface level stuff made to be easily digestible to a general audience.
One time my mom didn't believe me when I said I felt sick (even though I had never once faked being sick before) and she forced me to go to school and then I got sick in the middle of gym class which basically was just adding insult to injury as it was embarrassing as hell
That happend to me when I was 8 I sicked up in front of the teacher and my parents still questioned me saying 'I don't look sick'
It’s so weird. The child is sick with high temperature, but mom didn’t use thermometer to check and didn’t give him any medicine??
In my country we at least give kids some hot tea with honey, some medicine to ease coughing on throat pain, ect.
My mom was an EMT in her youth, so I could never get away with pretending to be sick. She could see through my bullshit a mile away.
I actually hate missing tests, you have to do them anyways, and if it's a big one it takes even longer.
I hated missing school in general, at least from secondary school up, because I'd have to catch up later and I learn mostly by listening and asking questions. So missing school for me would mean I'd have to (shiver) read books... I hardly even skipped lectures in college, even though that was totally allowed. I just didn't read the literature xD
This kid is clearly an amateur. You never let your siblings know that you're faking.
When I was in middle school I worked as an assistant in the front office of the school. Dude, the TEACHERS knew when kids were faking.
I am to Dhar Mann, like what Mikey is to Jaden... a bitter disappointment of a brother
If anything this shows how ineffective Dhar Manns lessons are. Like he exist in his own universe, and these people watch his videos and are STILL this mean 🤣
Hey Dhar Mann fam, I hope you enjoyed that message about “if you trick your children all the time, they aren’t going to trust you in the future”!
That teacher seems WAY too invested in those two particular kids...
4:17 ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED
Not only did the kid have obvious trust issues by the end of it but there is a quick line of "I got an F. Again." Which could imply a lot of different things all of which are bad. Like does he study but still fail and just gave up this time? Does he not study cause he is playing video games? Does he not study for other reasons? The fact his brother seems to also be younger than him but they have the same teacher just comes off as a concern as well. What is going on with that kid?
"He sounds like he's 28"
"I finished school two decades ago"

I'd fake being sick to watch a joinen video joinen....
you can tell when someone is sick and if their cough is genuine with coughing you have to really commit to it which might actually hurt most of the time people just look miserable when they’re sick
Why does everyone pretending to be sick put away the games and stuff. When I was sick I played games. Sick people still play games.
Wow, that mom is the true villain here. Throing all that "evidence" at her kid in the car? And that boy said he was scared of the test. Idk, maybe instead of planning a big reveal, talk to your kid and help him with his fears? I'd like to think that no parents irl are like that, but unfortunately, there's way too many horrible parents.
Kids at our school, if they are out of school 2 days or more they cant come back without a drs note😂
This was literally a Ferris Bueller’s Day Off parody lmfao
Give him some credit, this is at least 2% as entertaining as an episode of Malcolm In the Middle.
My mom would send us (my brothers and I) to school even if we were sick. The school had to call her a few times to pick me up because I was dying 😂
for some reason seeing characters fake being sick has always made me feel really weird inside especially when i see everyone else being so worried about them knowing it's a lie
every time on one of these videos - i think "do they really think humans talk like that?"
Or do things like that?
Do teachers in Dhar mann world creep up on random cars in parking lots to tell them the test is still happening?
Do mothers in Dhar Mann World pretend to be detectives and store evidence in their handbags?
And do celebrities just go to random schools for meet and greets?
Because i doubt that even happens in the real world.
i jumpscare people inside of cars daily

Video games are different than school, fun makes you less tired.
Being homeschooled sadly this trick never worked to miss school. 😅
IRK?! I’m homeschooled because I’m sick anyway!
Lol. Relatable.
Although I never really “wanted” to miss school as it hasn’t gotten too hard yet.
“Real school” must be especially rough if kids would rather be sick.
That kid has a HUGE bedroom! Holy moly!!!
I don't get sick, because I hate missing school... then it is way too much stress, and once I'm sick, I stay sick for like two weeks...
Yeah I alway hate missing school because of how difficult it is to catch up after a day. My teachers have the rule where if you miss it is your job to find out what you were missing by asking your classmates. And your classmates don't actually know what the hell is going on so you ask them and they are like 'uhm. Idk, I think we did this? Maybe.' then you don't know what you missed and are incredibly confused, and the teacher is like 'ok so your assignment from yesterday, it should be done today, make sure it's turned in'
WAIT! I just noticed the mom lady has different colored eyes! That's so cool!
Dhar Mann moms all have degrees in forensic science
I just always said my stomach hurts cause then they couldn’t check my temperature and realize I was lying
This Dhar Mann video illustrates a terrible way to discipline your children. It is important to demonstrate the morals and values you want your children to learn, and if you comeback lies from your children with lies of your own, you are not teaching your child how to behave. IN the end they will see your dynamic as a game of deceiving their parents. Worse, the children will end up not trusting you in the long run. Dhar Mann is really going down hill.
There was this one time I had really bad period cramps and I was struggling to even get out of bed. I really wanted to go to school but I also kinda wanted my dad to tell me I shouldn’t. I told my dad I wanted to go despite being in so much visible pain and he just told me to get ready for school then. So I literally crawled out of bed and started getting dressed but half way through it I felt like I would throw up if I kept moving. My dad just stood there watching me and waiting. I thought he would stop me because I could barely walk but he didn’t. I eventually had to say I couldn’t go to school and I felt really bad about it. I felt like I was just skipping school for no good reason since my dad was encouraging me to still go. I felt bad all day because of it.
If men got periods, they'd get the whole week off. I don't really see a problem with taking a day off when your body is functionally sick or injured because of a period.
@@katherinebaker8088 it’s not bad, I just felt bad about it
Opening your teenage boy's tissues to prove he's not really sick with the flu sounds like suicide
Joinen just predicted the future, "The Dhar Mann Game", it's the Dhar Mann app right now but around the same thing...
That reaction from the kid when being told he would be going to see the doctor would be enough for any normal parent to know the kid is faking. When I was a child, if I happened to be unwell and not able to go to the school, then going to the doctor would be the bare minimum done because at least the doctor can work out what is making me unwell. I'd have no choice in the mattee beyond going to school or going to see the doctor. I don't get why this so called mother would see the kid respond like that and then not tell him thise are the two options, either make sure your kid is well, or send him to school, don't just leave him at home without knowing what's causing him to be unwell.
I play video games when I'm sick. My mom also buys me junk food to make me feel better but that's because my mom knows that I wouldn't fake it.
At least this mother is just like "lmao nice try"
Still really weird and the message still sounds more like an "I'm stalking you" than an "actions have consequences" kind of thing, but hey the mother isn't as brutal so it's a start
All of the parents use the same quotes because they’ve been watching too much Dhar Mann
Puking sounds more like something in-between a cough and a burp than BLUEGHHHH
Joinen, I say this with all the love and respect in the world, your mimicry of the kid being sick reminds me of when the calves bellow.
My pro tip. Drink so much water until you feel slightly nauseous. To the doctor, your stomach sounds like you have gastrointestinal flu. Written sick for three days. Always helped in my childhood. : D
His mom is so nice and stuff while my mom is like “you threw up? Is it blood? No? Than your fine.”
I played games all the time when I was sick. Parents didn’t think it was a sign of health.

Dhar mann pullin up near the school to pick up some chicks
Dhar mann: hey baby girl how ya doin. You know my mama used to say whatever happens in the dark always comes to light
Pour water into the toilet is weak! As a kid I would trigger my gag reflex so I would actually throw up to fake being sick XD. Not the greatest life choice. But it worked 100% because you actually throw up XD
Disgusting
one time i actually threw up (i think it was what i had for dinner) and my mom made me go to school the next day anyways
Dhar Mann feels less like a real name and more like a superhero name
I don't think I've ever actually pretended to be sick to stay home, but I've definitely exaggerated when I was *actually* sick. Got a tiny cough and a slight stomachache? "Mom I feel bad" "okay then go back to sleep lol"
This video really did leave me with so many questions. Does she just see him on a morning then literally leave him until the next morning? Is he the same age as his brother if they were both taking the same test?
Could be an end of year exam, different grades take them at the same time with different levels of difficulty.
I used to have a genuine issue w puking before school every day bc of anxiety and my mom would literally just drive me to school w a grocery bag in case I had to puke in her car. This kids mom is so soft.
My parents wouldn't give an f and make me go unless I didn't have more than 40°C
3:19 You laugh, but I was like that in middle and high school. My mom was of the mindset of "you're old enough to decide whether you should stay home or not," but I still wanted her opinion. And I felt bad if I stayed home cause my older brother would stay home for the smallest things, so it felt like I was abusing my power too. Also skipping school was way more stressful to me than just going while I felt bad.
this is the best dhar mann video lol
I have a theory about dhar man, I believe he’s a tyrant and a dictator who forcefully took over whatever world these characters are living in. He and his followers brainwashed them into admiring and worshipping him as a god, and be absolutely perfect human beings, which is why everyone is obsessed with him. Then he replaced all forms of media with dhar mann videos and dhar mann themed ripoff games. He then made millions of his subjects live in horrible conditions, causing the sad backstories from the characters. However no one blamed him and kept worshiping him. But some people woke up from their hypnosis, and found out about Dhar Mann’s evil misdoings. They created a rebellion and realized the only way to break people from their trance was to be terrible people towards the brainwashed people, which is where the dhar mann villains come from. However, they are almost never successful, as Dhar Mann had planned for this. He made the brainwashing technology so strong that the victims would be able to spread the hypnosis by telling members of the Dhar Mann Rebellion(DMR) their sob stories. At this point in time, the DMR is running low on members and they are losing hope every minute. But they continue to send people into battle to try and save the civilians and take Dhar Mann down once and for all.
The kid here who was faking an illness, for example, is one of the best spies in the DMR. He focuses specifically on this family, because before Dhar Mann took over, they were his mother and brother and they were the happiest family ever. But when the take over happened, he knew he had to potentially sacrifice that all in order to save them. He cleverly pretends to be one of them, while still being a jerk to them and slowly getting them to break free from their hypnosis.
Might add onto this later idk
