Thanks
Very pesky.
@@Chaseabagjoedy stfu
Dang it
Me : crying baby isn't that bad
Him : plays sound of crying baby for a minute
Me : ok , this is very bad
lol
😆😆
Reminds me of that one scene from Family Guy... :/
th-cam.com/video/AxuNWo9oeSw/w-d-xo.html
@@veng3r663 it reminded me a lot of the baby in the beginning of the song unholy gravebirth
I HATED IT
The wife is the living embodiment of “I brought you into this world, I’ll take you out”
I love this comment
Like number 100 🥳
This comment it’s somehow relatable and halarios
She went Mama Bear when he had that knife to her baby... I seriously can't blame either of the parents for their actions
I don't believe a word of it.
I had an angry child, he used to punch the crap out of me over and over, I would hold his hands or leave the house and stand outside, whatever I could think of. One day when he was about 7, he walked up to me and punched me out of the blue, it gave me such a fright, without thinking I instantly punched him right back, knocking him on his arse. He looked absolutely stunned. Never punched me again. He's 17 now and the joy of my life. I guess sometimes you just need to shit in their bed so they know what it feels like.
I was wondering this the entire time. Like if they had knocked the shit out of him one good time when he was little if it would have served as a wake up call. I don't believe in hitting kids but everyone has a right to defend themselves and a live a life with dignity and sometimes that right has to be defended with violence.
@@agdoren Yes, it's a real moral dilema. I don't condone hitting kids either, I honestly felt guilty for YEARS afterwards, but I often wonder, if that didn't happen would he still be hitting me (and others) at 17 years and 6'3"...
@@JVDV11 We'll never know but I think with your child it probably shocked and scared him but it also gave him a point of empathy and maybe if your child was like the child in the story it created a window of time for you to instruct him out of that behavior.
If you have a child who behaved like this sooner or later someone is going to knock them down and I think it's better it comes from someone who loves them and wants the best for them ultimately than someone in the outside world that doesn't care about your child. You may very well have saved his life and perhaps saved him from a lot of heart ache.
@@agdoren Wow, your comment made me well up 🥺 I guess I still had some residual guilt hanging around, in a world full of trolls, thank you for your kind and reassuring words
Lmao glad you did that.
Gained a new phobia today: to give birth to such a monster.
I really thought this was going to end with them burying their son out back.
Same
Same lol
Lol I just started listening to that story
Ong i thought she was gonna beat him to death 😂
Me too ..
The mom being a boxer and beating the crap out of him is the biggest plot twist in history. Did not see that coming at all!!
Now imagine if she’d just whooped his ass earlier, could’ve saved themselves a world of grief.
I believe the mom was the dad. When she came in the kitchen they showed a picture of a man with blood on him. He killed his son.
@@ronnyhuggins6250 when Mr Ballen shows real pictures he notates "real picture".
The bloody man pictured was a dramatization. And he was holding a child that was bleeding from three different places including her face. Head/facial wounds bleed excessively...
@@ronnyhuggins6250 bro that’s Rick from the walking dead A TV SHOW 🤣
how you know this story is not bullshit, a midaged women boxing the crazy son to death, the son did not respond??
The most dangerous place in the world is in between a mother and her child. When he chose to harm the baby, Mom no longer viewed him as "her son", he became "my daughter's attacker" which gave her the adrenaline to blast him. I completely understand their train of thought and feelings. Can't say I wouldn't have felt the same way myself.
meh a gun would've worked better
Shut up lol 😆 😂
This was a really good way to put it. Smart I agree 100%. Most parents wouldn’t have tolerated as long as these two did they are saints honestly.
@@nicoletorres6940 yes and no I suppose
Completely agree would do the same but I would of stoped after the 2/3 slap and got him locked up in a hospital tbh but I understand her rage she held that for yearsss
How tf did it take 18 years??? If I'd have stepped that far out of line at 8 years old my old man would've took my jaw off 🤣
Mine would take head off put it up like a trophy deer head😅
I'm sorry you grew up with that. You deserved better.
Lol these comments 😂
Reminds me of my older brother, he would beat my head with plastic toys when I was a toddler until my mom did the same to him and he ended up bleeding... Never again
It's done in the name of being "progressive"
That mum giving her psychopath son the hands was the most satisfying thing I've ever heard
She should have ended it by crushing his rib cage, leaving him joking to death.
@@googleuser9383 could not agree more
I read the original post. She was actually a professional fighter
Literally same
Would have been funny if they shit in his bed first before they killed him
“Art’s wife was actually a really accomplished boxer who could basically beat the crap out of anybody” WELL WTFF I DID NOT SEE THAT ONE COMING
Probably because it's made up 🐂💩
@@carcar5984 most likely cap
@@dakodablack7312 definite cap. He says the woman beat on the boy the entire time he cleaned up and bandaged and all that to the baby. Nonsense. Maybe if it we're just some normal woman, MAYBE! But this woman was apparently a golden gloves champion, Mike tyson defeating, rocky balboa type woman. The 'evil' son never even got a single hit in? She didn't pummel him to death? Break a knuckle? Nothing at all? And after such a long beating from such an accomplished boxing champ and he was able to recover with zero medical attention? He didn't starve to death, so must have not been too badly damaged to still prepare food. It's just way too outlandish. There was other obviously 🐂💩 in this poorly written story, but this was just too over the top ridiculous to keep watching. If this dude reading the story actually believes this he has to be the most gullible person on Earth
Basically man just pulled a soft right hook from kimbo on us with that one
She trained with a daughter of a famous gud lookin heavyweight champion of the world.✌
I worked in a Psychiatric residential treatment facility for many years and I can testify that kids like this do exist. They would attack staff, their peers, and destroy the building.
Yes, I met one a while back. Fifteen years old, would seem like a normal kid for a while and could even be charming, but incredibly dangerous, with no empathy or remorse, and a gleeful love of sexual violence towards women and animals. I've met some dangerous people through my job, but that kid is one of the worst. Fortunately, he's unlikely ever to be released into society because of his various diagnoses, but there's always that unnerving chance that he'll fool some bleeding heart into thinking he's somehow reformed.
And when they were all released, they formed a big group and burned down cities.
On the non professional level would you consider people like this to be "evil"? 9t just sick?
Yes i was a teacher and they do exist. I always felt that nobody believed me because "they're just kids"
@@bobsaggater3454 I think both exist. Those with illness and those just evil.
I don't like violence BUT good on that mother. She was protecting her child
and everyone else
@@lightcrowd42040 he escaped. They didn't protect everyone
@@akumabazooka9169 As if that story is real lol
By killing said child?
@@draw2death421different child
She unleashed 16 years of frustration on him and he still didn't die. Jesus
He 100% died. Dad cannot say that as he would be an accessory to murder. So it’s easier to say he ran away.
Was it murder? I have two girls I'd for sure kill to protect them
Reminds me of that snake necked turtle from amazing world of gumball no matter what u threw at him his pure evil over shown it.
Nope she only unleashed on year.
@@megapromo3771 The dad wanted to reveal the truth before he died. At his age, near death, do you think he would care about going to jail?
The mother may be a boxer, but she's still a woman. I know people like to deny facts in this modern age of false equality, but the facts remain that the strongest woman will still get her butt kicked by the average male fighter. So, while he got his teeth knocked out and was smashed around for a while, she very likely was unable to deal lethal damage.
Judging by the state he was described to be in (Vomiting and loss of consciousness), the only result of the beating was loss of teeth and blood, as well as a concussion.
The crying baby sound effect was like daggers in the ears.
It had me laughing so hard like a cat but instead of coughing up a furball it was coughing up a baby
It was about 3 screams too long...lol I almost turned it off
@@jamieshouldbeavailable same. I cant stand that sound. Too many younger siblings...
Jamie Canavan for real! When it kept going on I was like ok that’s enough this can stop anytime now lol
@TH-cam Clusterfuck lol nope! That's why I have 🐕 🐕
Her being a boxer the whole time is a marvelous twist.
Make you think how much self control she have to never lay a hand until 17 years
@@sultan9givewey considering the beating she put down on him, she had alot. He put them through alot.
Wow. With a coward who doesn't have empathy, I think it was only a matter of time before the son met someone who would just snap. I didn't expect it to be his own mom. Never underestimate the rage of a mother protecting her child. Especially if she's a boxer.
Hope the family is doing better.
Read the Reddit post. Momma passed back in 2016 and Art had moved in with his daughter and her children.
The scariest story ever is about a guy who was a navy seal who decided to start torturing innocent like buttons
Gonna have to agree with Good Evening, I have never seen a innocent like button before...
GOT 'EM!! 😆
Lol yeah tell me about it. How rude.
HA! GOT! EMMM!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude, i was so afraid you were going to say the kid murdered his infant sister.... Sigh of relief. Good on mom, tho....
Agreed
seriously!! who else is sooo rooting for the mom to keep it up!
Look up the Bever brothers in the Broken Arrow murders. Those kids slaughtered their whole family bar one sibling who managed to survive.
Horrible mom. Good boxer. They really should have spanked him or something when he was younger.
@@grantwalter2243 no better way to show a child that violence is wrong than inflicting violence on that child
I bit my mother when I was very young and she bit me back! I never did anything like that again and neither did she! Respect!🔥❤️🔥
I don't know how he made it to 16! If I ever tried any crap like that my own mother would've smacked sense into me. If I talk back Id be thrown across the room!
Is there anybody else wondering if the kid in this story isn't already in another MrBallen video... or soon to be in one.
Right? Sounds like he would become a serial killer
i’m afraid that one day there will be a video about how he did kill his family years later
Well if he keeps on being evil he would most likely be in jail.
I am wondering why people actually believe a reddit post...
@@CrystaliaVbecause people relate it to similar personal experiences and true stories that they heard in the past and it sounds totally believable, so even if it's not true, things like this have definitely happened, so we just take it at face value as something that easily COULD be true.
And now that boy is responsible for 5 of MrBallen's unsolved cold cases
That’s what I was thinking! Some lives may have been spared had they decided to finish him off. That’s an awful big risk, though.
At least.
Very, VERY likely that he has at least 1 or 2 cold cases linked to him.
Either that or he is one of those cold cases, the parents would be able to resist killing him but most people just want you to sneeze on them just so they can justify taking you out
Pmsl
Shoulda just took him camping in the Yukon. "Son, that bear just called you a bed pooping weirdo. You gonna take that?"
this made me laugh out loud
Lmao
I dont know much about the yukon but i reckon it’s pretty wild being right next to alaska
@@cripmac7580 Yes, it is next to Alaska, but the kicker here is that grizzlies there are particularly aggressive 🤣
@@petercarmody4897 Damn I see now😂
I was not expecting the old man in this story to be a victim
Lisa put the fear of the Lord into him😂😂😂
They were worried the second baby would be an issue?
I’d be worried that the other kid might try to harm her.
*Curb Your Enthusiasm gets louder*
I thought this too.
@@ElizabethAnnnn9311 ~ I had a friend whose daughter was truly evil. She tried to kill her sibling and under therapy she stated her only regret was not succeeding.
@@izzojoseph2 I can't even imagine. Listening to this story I knew it was only a matter of time before the son did something to his sister.
@@ElizabethAnnnn9311 ~ I’m glad it’s something you can’t fathom!
While I feel horrible for them (even though some say it’s fake) I’d like to never know the reality.
And I know it can be a true story because my friend lived it.
That bit where the mother attacked the son over their daughter gave me chills. Nothing is safe from a mother's wrath
I feel bad for the man, I hate this family besides that poor kid
@@sam9014 I think the kid deserved it.
Alot of plebs and peasants think that children are innocent, and tries to find excuses for SICK behavior.
But nope, children are not innocent. Only innocent are infants and animals.
Watch the documentary "born killer?" About children who murder.
And no, there is no excuse as violent home or violent tv-shows.
Some... are just born evil.
So it was good the mother took care of business before that devil spawn hurt someone else (probably would become a serial killer)
@@vipr1142 at that point he wasn’t even a child anymore. He’s already 18
@@sam9014 poor kid? Did you watch the same video the rest of us did? 😂
@@hplovinmama631 Clearly maybe I just have some sympathy, unlike you.
i saw this story on tiktok one time, and now i think about all the time, constantly wondering what happened to the son. no story has affected me or fascinated me as much as this one.
He’s a car salesman now
@@mtmyles21 Seriously?
@@mtmyles21 wait how do you know? where can I find the story of what happened to the son?
They probably killed him, disposed the body and made it appear as though he left in his own.
The moral of the story is don’t piss off mom
You know, these parents should take a DNA test and send it to the FBI to see if it can be matched to any unsolved murder cases. Even if they don't know where he is, at least if it matches something, they'll know who to look for.
This is a REALLY good point.
Is this implying about one of the parents being a murder?
@@antarcfroze No, this is implying that their son is a murderer. Like in the time they haven't seen him, he has probably killed several people. If say the dad puts his DNA in and there is unknown DNA on an open murder case(s) it would come back as a certain percentage match showing a father/son DNA link. So if something does hit on CODIS, they will have a description and photographs of the guy.
@@antarcfroze huh? You really didnt get what listinglazily was saying?
Yes .. one never knows. Dude was quack. Demon child fer sure
That kid is still out there in the woods of Oregon following hikers and asking “Do you know how to get to Belle Canyon?”
Yes
😂😂🤣😂🤣
😂 binge watcher eh?
bruh😂😂
Lmao that is a good one
Bruh. The heartbeat sounds gave me the worst chills in my life. That timing with that scene.
"my unconscious son is getting his head kicked in by his mother" BRAVO 👏🏼👏🏼
I don’t support violence, but I have never ever felt more relieved to hear what this mom did, poor parents
Yeap, nobody can possibly understand how's it feels to have a criminal son or brother...
I cant understand why I craved 🎉wanted the son to grab the knife, and just bury It deep in his mother’s neck just to be even with his mother.
I don’t know how they managed to get through 16 years without giving him one smack. He clearly needed it.
@@nobody3765 That and I don't know why ppl find this story so far fetched if this type of things are happening every day in America, at least the parents came out of it alive, when somebody calls it not real I've to ask them ,How about the Menendez brothers? Is that one not real also? , they massacred their parents because of money, some other girl teen killed her grandparents because they took away her iPhone in Wisconsin, and many more.... at least their son didn't killed them and he lived to tell the story..
Maybe they had some fault in him becomming like that, the dad just couldn't see his own faults because of his guilt and just end up blaming the son. Clearly he at least needed to be put on his place years ago and when they finally decide to do it's after he almost kills his sister and then the mother almost kills him, ridiculous. Though I don't think this story is real, it's reddit after all.
When he said he blinded a dog and burned a cat’s tail it screamed psychopath
Guy: [hurts a dog]
Me: [grabs sledgehammer] You done fucked it up, son.
@@as7river Same
It’s the blatant disregard for the innocent PEOPLE and CHILDREN he hurt for me 🤨
ikr
It took u that long for something to scream out psychopath to you?
I once was with a guy whose SIL had a son who was very much like this. Angry all the time, happy when inflicting pain, would attempt to run away at 6years old, broke doors and put holes in walls…
Honestly he’s just scary as hell. I still see occasional posts from her where he’s been admitted into psych units for trying to kill them and it’s just awful. She has 2 younger children now and I just pray he never does anything to them.
That's one mental boy. I hope he sorted himself out or checked out. Thank God the little girl was saved. I hope the parents and the girl are doing great. XX
I've heard this story before, but never with this level of detail, it took until about half way to realise it was the same story. You know a good storyteller when they make a story you've heard before more riveting than the first time.
Yup r/slash has covered this
Yup. This "story".
Don't take this as gospel. No police reports or corroborating articles or evidence. Reddit Confessions, while believable if small things, I call bullshit on a 75 year old being enough of a Redditor and having this story to tell too.
@@kanedaku I agree. I also really hope this is all 🐂💩. The idea of a monster like that surviving and living out in society amongst everyone else is scary AF.
Mr. Ballen is amazing! I suffer a lot of pain due to medical problems but when I'm listening to him I don't even notice the pain. God bless you and thank you Mr. Ballen.
What's the son's name? I wanna look him up now.
Talk about taking the saying "I brought you into this world, ill take right back out" literally
"And I can make another one that looks just like you."
Never Underestimate the power of a mother.
@@MsMeece-gk2em Oh please don't do that. 1 was more than enough.
@@ShaareiZoharDaas a mother protected her 1 year old that got stab fairplay to her horrible situation
It's a mother's duty.
It’s wild to picture the baby girl having already calmed down sleeping peacefully while STILL hearing repeated thumps and absent screams from the room over. The self-control they must have had up to that point.
I have a brother like this. My earliest memories of him are him lying, stealing, hurting me, and hurting animals. Years later, coincidentally, my mom said he was also an inconsolable child. Eventually, after my parents divorced, he left my Dad's house, to live with my mom, who had nearly no rules. 20 years later however, she kicks him out too. He mooched off of her, never having a full time job. stole money from her and my sister, trashed my moms house as a parting gift, and then he moved across the country, and sent my sister a text saying that he hates us all, and that we suffer horrible before we die and see him in hell. Very strange. His anger always seemed unprovoked, but not constant, just erratic. Nobody in my family has heard from him in the years since then. I still think about him sometimes. Sociopaths are definitely born that way sometimes, but some people still think my parents must be monsters because "nobody is born evil". Evil? no, but definitely broken.
Yes, the comment sections here are full of total i iots blaming the parents. I don't understand that this nonsense about people not being born evil still prevails even though we have known for decades that psychopathy is an issue on the anatomy of the brain and that you can of course be born with that issue (or acquire it later via injury, illness etc.).
Omg! You still should all lock your doors and have good security at your houses. Don’t be surprised if he just shows up one day
It’s so hard to understand why anyone would put up w/that behavior in their home? The first time someone in my home that someone thought they were going to act a fool or damage my house that I paid for and worked hard to pay for.. let me tell you they wouldn’t be doing it a second time. What I say goes PERIOD!!!!! It amazes me when someone in someone else’s house acts like they own it and they let a little mf act like that in their home… it’s so unreal. I’ve seen people who rent a room in a house act this way to. They think because they’re renting a room that they somehow own part of the house they do not own!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
was it nothing to do with the divorce? Maybe the child in adolescence picked up on the rockiness of the relationship that led up to that divorce? During the early stages of a child's development, I learned in psychology that they can pick up on things we'd probably never thought they would, but they do. That's why it's important to set a great example from the get-go.
I disagree pure evil is possible. Especially in a Satanic-cult that breeds children for pedophilia and demonic sacrifice. A demons offspring is possible.
That was one of the most messed up surreal stories I've ever heard. It would make a GREAT horror movie or psychological thriller. Wow.
Same
@Steven GENNERO Bootz Yeah, I'd watch it to see Bieber get the crap knocked out of him but he can't act for shit.
@Steven GENNERO Bootz Challenge accepted. Let me get back to you.
@Steven GENNERO Bootz Okay, so I've given it a lot of thought and these are the actors I've imagined in the roles of Art and Lisa and their son. I mean, I am convinced this story could work as a movie. I'd love to start working on a screenplay lol. So as the Dad I see John Krasinski from "A Quiet Place", as the Mother I see Mary Elizabeth Winstead from "10 Cloverfield Lane" and "Birds of Prey" (she played Huntress), because she's beautiful and she kicks ass...and as the son I see Emjay Anthony. He would be perfect. He's seventeen so his age is exactly right and he resembles both John Krasinski and Mary Elizabeth Winstead so he could definitely pass as their son. He's been mostly cast in kid roles (he played Mowgli in "The Jungle Book") but as he's getting older he's doing more adult films. Just Google his name and check him out against the other two and see if you think he'd work in the role of the son. 😁
@Steven GENNERO Bootz Thanks. I think so. 😁
They were lucky he didnt burn the house down around them
Yeah that's true...
I thought the exact same thought! He's gonna burn that house. But.....
Thats literally what I was afraid of happening when they locked themselves in the basement
If it was a true story he would have been in a secure unit at 12
I
Anyone especially a child who inflicts suffering on innocent animals is definitely badly damaged mentally
Not necessarily. It depends on how far they take it, the reasons they do it, the age, etc. Most kids that did this get over it, as they did it in an age where they were too young to understand
From personal experience, when I was 16-18, my parents had a dog. I really adored it, but too much. When parents weren’t home I would sometimes play with him, too much. Like throw him in the air and then catch him. Or just force him to sit with me, etc. a few times when I didn’t like his angry behavior I would throw him on the couch or something to try to get him to stop barking/gritting teeth, etc. Nothing that would cause him physical harm, but certainly something that was a bit too cruel. Now, today, I obtained a rescue cat and he went from being extremely timid to my best pal and a happy animal. I don’t know why I treated that dog that way as I had adored him…
I would imagine some kids, especially at a much younger age than 16, might also mistreat animals but not out of anger or a need to cause pain, but out of something else that I cannot put my thoughts as to why
They are evil in pre-bloom, they blossom when they switch to serial killers.
They did the right thing 100%
Found this guy hours ago looking for alien stories and i've now been binge watching for the last 4 hours. Helppp
can relate !
Its 5am where I live and I cant stop watching... Atleast for the next two hours, then my alarm goes off
It's too late for you now 😵
It's too late for you now 😵
That was literally my introduction and now for the past month I have not seen one alien documentary, only Mr Ballen lol
I can’t imagine the inner turmoil you would feel as a parent. The guilt, resentment, love, and hate all at once toward your child.
But in the end you have to realize that one child is a danger to the others and as hard as it will be you have to make that choice
@@10RexTheWolf01 oh absolutely.
@@10RexTheWolf01 Well from the way it sounds, there was no love or regret for their son in the end. He was a psychopath and they were tired of him. He literally said that if he was still doing this, he hoped that somebody killed him
@@disser0145 What a terrible dilemma
Nuh-uh. Even back then there was counseling and help for these things. The fact the parents never sought that help the moment the first threat was made was 100% on them.
I can't imagine being in their shoes. How do you make an impossible decision like that in an impossible situation?
I am morbidly curious as to what did end up happening to their son....
Well if we ever find out about some serial killer that's into smearing poop all over walls and the bed of victims we know who it probably is
Victims could also possibly be family's with one baby
probably dead and buried. Wouldnt be surprised if he messed with the wrong person and got dealt with
I think he never went out of that house alive
Potentially a serial killer if he’s alive
I’ve listened to almost every video on your channel and this BY FAR the most interesting and thought provoking. What sort of horrors has the son committed? The nightmare his parents lived? Man, I’m blown away by that one. Well done.
(Not sure what this has to do with Halloween though 😆)
Puts a whole new meaning to
“I brought you Into this world, I can take you out!”
Omg🤣👍
For real bro 🤣 facts
He gtg
It kind of does.
" And make another one that looks just like you"
these parents had far more patience than i would have.
Me too I would have lost it earlier on the shit on walls at that young age
You only heard the parents side, it kinda makes no sense a baby would cry for 18 months and then attack randomly, he had to learn that from someone. Parents straight murdered him , of course they are going to slander his name , could be the parents attacked the baby to justify their abuse. Everyone likes this image in their head that the narration could do no wrong but there's always 2 side to the story.
@@wertiaaudit5746 agreed. Also why would you treat your other child much better and not expect the psycho to go after child. Not smart. Yea let me make my psycho kid jealous of baby sister.
@@wertiaaudit5746 are you new to the world? There's insanely sick people out there that had to come from somewhere.. Some people are just born that way. They're called sociopaths.
@@swtorjunkie6171
There are incredibly sick people in the world, we are all born with a sinful nature. But this story is not the whole story. This kid was abused or neglected in some way. If he wasn’t abused, he certainly wasn’t disciplined which is very neglectful.
Bro this story got me shaking, I don't usually get this scared but dang this was terrifying and intense.
This was one of the most riveting true stories I’ve ever heard
This video is the best form of birth control I’ve ever seen

@@paulesterline5714 Yeah, after 16 years. Seriously, these two assholes likely left the world a serial killer by letting this crap go on. If the kid was this screwed up, he should have been sent to a nuthouse, not a 'special school'.

MrBallen, first, thank you! I never really know what your stories will bring...LOL...but I go for it anyway at times. I must say there's never a dull moment so thanks for that!👍🏾
This is one of my favorites. Because the ending was awesome. I don’t blame the mother or the father at all. And I’m glad they were blessed with a healthy child so they can be the parents they always wanted to be.
I couldn’t help but smile when the mom started kicking his ass

Never sample a baby crying ever again. A verbal description is enough, thank you.
lmaooooo
It's not even a normal cry
No yeah that was an intentionaly creepy sample
Shit was annoying asf and ear piercing 💀
Literally not even 4 minutes into the video and I came here with a vengeance to say this.
Dude, I'm so glad I found this channel. I've been binge watching it for two weeks now. This one had my almost out of my seat...Hell YES Mama!
What a story……I just sat here for a few minutes, thinking about what to write, but I just have no words except unbelievable……incredibly well told John as always xx❤xx
That was. THE MOST. SATISFYING. BEAT DOWN. *EVER.*
@Kayla Murray good they were just defending their baby girl
Thing is though, they created him on purpose. They were conscious enough to install thousands of dollars of doors and locks but not conscious enough to seek professional psychological help out of fear of having their child locked away. He stabbed his father twice and they didn't do anything about it and let him get away with it. These parents are effectively two of the greatest enablers in the history of parenting and they had decades to twist the story and manipulate the truth and it's sad to see sick people like them get away with it also.
@@omnipotentpumpkin9755 wow you must no everything about it were you there we don't know what happened and you certainly don't
I would pay a thousand to watch that
@@omnipotentpumpkin9755 Ballen said the parents sought different therapists, doctors, special schools, and medication. Anything to help him break out of this behavior. Seems like they tried everything but calling the cops on him and pressing charges. Call me crazy but I don’t think the prison system would have changed anything for the better. Unless you’re suggesting the best option was sending him to jail? Even if they send him to a foster home that would’ve put others in danger just like when he attacked other students in school. Therapists could’ve misdiagnosed, or failed to diagnose a serious mental disorder. Even sending him to a mental facility in the late 80’s was nearly impossible after Reagan’s campaign focused on closing many of those facilities, and kicked the mentally ill patients out to the streets. What option did we not cover here? Which horrible option would you take? It’s easy to criticize but I don’t see any valid suggestions you’re offering.
Whew ... Lisa is a beast! Don't mess with a Mama Bear. At that point, he was no longer her cub, but a threat.
Yeah...
SHE'S A BEAST?
The kid's a beast
@@kathytownsend6378 Beast in this context is actually a compliment. Like when someone is tough or strong, say, in sports, a lot of people will refer to them as a “beast.” And that’s why I call Lisa a “beast.” She is strong, tough and brave.
Such a great analogy👏
Good for you Lisa. They tried so hard and did everything they could and she was fed TF up.
I totally agree with the mother
Sounds like they took that saying, “ I brought you into this world, & I’ll take you out” to a whole nother level.🥴
ROTFLMAO!!!!!
Welp I think we know that the wife had the crazy gens
..or to a whole
MOTHER level... !
These are probably THE parents who coined the phrase frfr
love it
I wouldn’t be worried about the second baby being like the first. I would be worried about what the older child will do to the baby.
my thoughts exactly, i was like he is guna kill the baby the whole time
Same here
Exactly what I thought..
Buddy momma went full hulk mood on him. She did right because she got tired of his mess. 😂😂😂
Awesome story! Glad it happened the way it did! Props to the mother!
It would be so interesting to know what happened with the son since he left their house.
Serial killer, perhaps?
My thoughts exactly.. The dude was just wrong from conception
Unquestionably. His abuse of the animals in the neighborhood was practice. We can but hope he was stopped before he did any further harm.
That seems like the next probable step in this young man’s progression. Police and professionals should have had this boy in custody?……like in an institution?
@@blc28x we can but hope that is the case.
Perhaps...
As soon as I heard they were pregnant, I knew he would try to kill the baby. I'm sure a lot of us thought the same thing. How did that never cross their mind?
It's perspective. It's their son. Emotional whiplash.
@@Bdub323 I mean it’s a 15 year old that craps on there bed. He’s kinda unpredictable.
Yeap... It's called sibling rivalry or in certain and unique cases, EXTREME sibling rivalry...
Blind optimism
because its a reddit post, made up
Mr.Ballen ..I think that was one of the greatest stories, it's hard to say because another one of the stories you tell tops the next. 🎉
I first listened to this story I were 35 weeks pregnant and the son I gave birth to cried all the time and still does I came across this story again today and listened and it made me think baby heard this story before he were born and thought yes I'm supposed to CRY and he still cries all day long and he's now 19 months 😂I couldn't love him more🤣🤣❤️
Nature strikes when you mess with a mother’s baby. Mama bear comes out.
It made me happy hearing how fast she reacted to the boy stabbing the baby im a new mom and i would have killed him first chance idc ill face jail time over my seed
dont mess with mama bear..
True, but I'm not buying it. Art beat the boy and the wife bandaged up the baby.
So true XD
@@KatherineUribe-1 maybe you just aren't cut like that
I feel honestly really bad for the parents in this story.
Me too. At least their daughter didn't turn out like their son.
i think that goes without saying and is an incredible understatement... if you did not feel bad you would be a sociopath
@@ohokok chill
I do feel for them, at the same time they just unleashed a psychopath into the world who more than likely just moved on to harm someone else. Should have put that fucker 6 feet under
@@SimonC82686 I imagine they were also dealing with concerns about the law as well though. If one of them, or both of them, ended up in prison, and especially if it would be a very long or life-sentence, then how would their daughter be raised? I think it would be deciding what is best for society versus what is best for their personal family unit. Very tough decision, I'm sure.
Legal matters can be very tricky, when something may be understood as "morally right" even though legally it is, in fact, technically wrong. There are amazing human-moments where people come through, but not always.
Not all babies who cry a lot turn out to be evil.
I've seen many who become very sensitive caring people.
The crying was just a need to be loved and have companionship.
I knew a family just like that one. Really stuck between a rock and a hard place. Bless all parents!
He did all that I can't imagine just shitting on my mom couch and being able to live
that's because your parents obviously made it clear that some transgressions would be met with a physical response. In other words they weren't afraid to beat your ass, like these two "good parents"
@@TheNitroG1 uh i was never hit but i knew not to shit anywhere but the toilet..
I woulda been dead
@@chaldeokpai facts discipline comes in many forms other than physical. We KNEW better.
Turns out he just needed a MAN to whip the literal chit out of him! After giving up all hope, MOM had to step in and man up for him! LoL; Try that chit in an Irish or Latino family...
I wonder if Art's guilt was for not finishing his son off, letting him live on to cause terror for the last 30 years.
Yes he should have finished it
Some things just need doing.
He should've got him help be a better parent smack his ass not try n beat him to death the first time u lay a hand on him
well finishing him off would make him a murderer. I'm glad he didn't The kid will end up going ballistic to the wrong person one day and become a bad memory
@@howtomobile1965 nah the kid got what he deserved. Some people can’t be helped. It is what it is. You try cutting up a baby you’re lucky if you make it out alive. I don’t blame the parents at all. The state would have released him at 18 and he’d have killed and assaulted how many more people and animals? Not to mention who he’d hurt while in the system. Unless he was immediately gonna be locked away for life I don’t see any other way tbh. These kind of things always happen to innocent people but I’m glad this happened to him. He’s lucky to be alive.
Hollywood could only dream of a plot twist like this
Wow. That was intense! I’m happy for the ones who got away but not for my almost certainty that he’s out there inflicting his bullshit on other people. Awesome story Mr .
I wouldn't be surprised if that kid was a character in a different Mr B story unbeknownst to us.
Yeah my thoughts exactly, who else did he torture and probably kill?
To quote another commenter (Jesse Jackson Brown) - some people say he's out in the woods of Oregon asking people "do you know how to get to bell canyon"
@@crazyscottishboi3822 wait what OREGON where in OREGON
Maybe he grew up to be Daniel LaPlante
He went to Alberta on a greyhound and cut a guys head off on a bus I think
The way you describe this story, I can almost feel the parents' anguish. And there's no way I could ever judge them. Some people are just broken beyond all repair. (p.s. Love the wife. What a badass!)
As parents, what can you do? What other options are there? They endured so much.
To put the child in jail, I guess.
I can’t fathom the pain and anger they lived with for 16-17 years with their son.
I feel sorry for the kid because he was born like that and I don’t think they
once read this story on reddit. I dont. blame them they really tried all they could as parents.
@Tech Support why would you put a thumbs down lol
I believe he was being sarcastic, but he's also a moron. I train with women fighters, they are very capable. Albeit usually underweight and out strengthened to fight a male, a woman picked up a GD car because her baby was under it. If you think a trained boxer couldn't destroy a 17 year old who was harming and threatening her baby's life and well being you are out of your mind.
So has there ever been any updated information about all this in the two years since this ep was posted?
Same question here. Did anyone find the son?? Is he dead?
The "psycho son" story was probably made-up.
He became a serial killer but he was eventually caught and is now serving his time, wondering how he survived his mother's attack and is relieved he's safe in prison where his mother couldn't attack and beat the sh** outta him anymore. He also thinks and wonders why his mother didn't choose to become a professional boxer because if she did, he knows she'd be the undisputed champion of any division she plays
@@ramdingaliana9711 Wow. Really? How do you find out?
@@ericaespinosa4030 He found out when he used his imagination, he could make shit up. Amazing stuff
One of the most insane stories I've ever heard. So much for nurture, seems like all nature. Unbelievable that this started immediately.
Rule Number 1 of nature: Never mess with a mom who fears for the life of her child. Not even if you are also her child
Exactly don't poke the mama bear!
Believe it!!
That's right I remember when I was young I got mad at my brother and almost poked his eye out with a stick bro my mom has never been that violent she beat me until I started bleeding that's when all my stubbornness left and I started acting normal
this time a local rapist tried to attack some girl he had his arms broken by the girls mother
@@lydiajipripal9778
What the...
The fact that he may still be out there somewhere really creeps me out.
I mean he probably starved in an alley somewhere. He didn't seem able to care for himself in the slightest bit. He probably wasn't even smart enough to be a thief.
@@mothmanmother Thank you. Thank makes me feel a bit better.
I won't be surprised if theres an urband legend going on in those small town because of this guy
He sounds like someone who should be in a mental institution. Why wasn't he? Something doesn't add up here. They didn't have him under psychiatric care.
@@bingonamo7520 I thought they did have him in treatment.
That was one of the most incredible stories I've ever heard!
I'm not a parent, so obviously don't know what's it like on that end, but as a side observer, I believe children should have a healthy dose of fear of their parents. Not necessarily by means of violence, but a little bit of that too helps, otherwise some children have no boundry. We'll never know now for those 2, but wow what a story.
Yes, now parents want to be their child’s best friend. Mistake.
