will she be ok?, shes just a baby Options

[ShEraBaRoO]

ok the other day, i was scaring my baby sister (who is 14 months old) with scary images on my computer sceen. she was on my lap and we were watchin like this video clip that a scary face popped up unexpectantly. it didnt scare me cuz i showed her that video clip and i knew what was going to happen but my baby sister couldnt stop shaking. she was petrified. and im such a bad sister cuz i kept showing other video clips that would scare and she got scared in all of them

will this affect how she sees things when shes older>? i stopped doin it cuz i got in trouble but still... did i do something that i will regret when shes older?

[zbrittanyz]

I guess it depends on the different images. If it was like scary clowns she might be afraid of clowns when she gets older. But she probably won't remember any of them when she gets older.

[EXPLO5ION]

^sometimes when stuff happens, a child could remember for years and years. [thats what i heard on the discovery channel]
it could mess with her mind. that was a badd thing to do.

[Baku]

haha she will get over it :-p and if she doesnt bad sister! jp she wont have long term scars from it :-p

[redderstarr]

oh man.. at such a young age, she might kind of be scared of whatever you showed her.. uh oh

[DaTru KataLYST]

Babies develop their brains at a much faster pace than teens and such. I mean, they learn things and imprint images in the minds freekin fast. I think you traumatized her, and it will nip you in the butt in the future. I'm thinking it's going to affect her long term future, as in what she is scared of, how she'll react. It may even affect her psyche, where she may develop an overall attitude and personality.

But that's just speculation! Maybe she's strong and wont even remember it in a few years.

[Nicolatofu]

Well, how is she acting now? maybe give it time to see how she acts in a day or so... were you trying to scare her or something? lol poor girl

[racoons > you]

lol i just think you're funny...

heh

[parallel]

Aww poor thing! Bad sister! No jp..I mean you didn't know so no bad part on you..but maybe it was kinda mean to show her that stuff..I probably would've done that myself but we all make mistakes...I hope she is ok..

[*Weird addiction*]

omfg, it might affect her!...lets hope it doesnt

[melface]

Let me ask you guys something, do you remember anything from when you were 14 months old? No. So, stop saying... "well blah blah blah she might not even remember it in a couple of years blah blah blah". Anyway, it WILL have some sort of an effect on her... I guess we'll just have to wait to find out.

[picaso_smile]

She probably won't remember it... but you never know? Maybe a inexplicable fear of computer screens will surface somewhere later in her life. But why were you trying to scare her? haha.. that doesn't sound very niccee....

[*AngelicEyz00*]

Why would you do that to your little sister? You're evil.

[iheartsimba]

thats bad..shes so young..but yes defintly stopppp. who knows maybe it could cause her to fear more things..like wavy baby said...she might fear clowns if a big scary one popped out at her

[laur3nw]

That's so sad and mean! Why did you do that?
I don't know if it'll affect her when she gets older, but even though she's 14 months, she might remember when she gets older and she'll always be petrified of those kind of things because of a bad experience.

[blondiebombshell]

depends on how scary it was

[runforfun529]

you probably shouldn't have done that, but I doubt it will harm her too much. Just try and show her pretty pictures from now on.

[heyyfrankie]

oh. that is so mean!
---
i am sure that nothing with happen to her as she grows up but i can't believe you would do that!

i feel sorry for her now.

[*xcaitlinx*]

wow. that is really mean...idk why you would keep on showing her those pictures if she was shaking and everything.

i dont think it will affect her when shes an adult. but she might have a lot of nightmares during the night. thanks to you. how OLD are you anyway? very immature.

[nightsong]

Your sister is going to murder you sometime in the future.

xo, Pauline

[inlonelinessidie]

What were you thinking? If you obviously felt her shaking in your lap why didn't you stop? No offense but you're a jackass for doing that to your sister.

[xj_liana_tx]

she will remember it for a long time..
when you see something scary you will remember it and it'll hunt you. i still remember these things from elementary school...

[BeyondElite]

You're a bad sister. Just kidding. Anyways, she will get over it. Besides, she'll forget all the scary clips you've showed her when she grow up. So, I think it's just fine. But don't do that again.

[blackbow]

What the hell made you want to show your little sister scary pictures on the internet? That's not very funny at all. Thats cruel. Screw all the people that said "just kidding" because you ARE a bad sister. Whether or not your sister will be affected by it is not the point, the fact that you actually went and did that shows how dumb you are.

Common sense please.

[--x who0ps]

I think you traumatized her, and it will nip you in the butt in the future.

lmao

erhh i think its kinda sad how you showed her the pixures cause like you said, it didnt scar eyou cause you knew what was gunna pop out, so it would normally scare a regular person your age. you think she wouldnt be petrified of the pictures when she`s only.. what? 14 months old ?! i expect she`ll be scared for a long time >T

[eunie03]

I remember stuff that happened when I was 6 better than what I ate last night.

Ohhhh, you done did bad. You're going to hell.

But seriously. Studies showed babies can't usually form long-term memories before they learn language. As long as you didn't tape her to the monitor... I'm sure you didn't scar the child for life.

[Mireh]

;o. why would you do that to your baby sister in the first place?

[dahding]

ur sick...the poor child...whats wrong with u!? if u traumatized her, oooo, ur going to regret it, and then u'll be like sob sob i'm a bad person.

tsk tsk. baddddd.

[FoOd]

What the hell made you want to show your little sister scary pictures on the internet?  That's not very funny at all.  Thats cruel.  Screw all the people that said "just kidding" because you ARE a bad sister.  Whether or not your sister will be affected by it is not the point, the fact that you actually went and did that shows how dumb you are. 

Common sense please.

I'm sorry but what you said up there was cruel too.
People make mistakes and unfortuantely she made a mistake on this part. As long as she knows what she did was bad, then everything is all right.
Just..... don't do it again in the near future soon to your little sister.

[nevernothere]

If she's that young, she'll prolly forget easily, but in the future, images like that or startling situations could easily really make her jump.

[azn_r4pf4n]

I could connect this situation to something similar.

I played this one Rated M game when I was like about 4-5 years old called Doom 1. I almost beated it, but it gave me nightmares. But the graphics on Doom 1 were so poor that my nightmares weren't that bad.

She won't remember the situation, but it might give her long-term effects.

[xXirockhardXx]

Thats mean. And im not sure if it will affect your sister when shes older.

[diiaaanna]

hm, my nephew is just a little over 1 yr old. he used to go into the drawers and mess with the canned foods alot, so we put a mask of an old lady in it. once he opened it, he screamed and ran off. we did that about 2 months ago and he is STILL scared to even go anywhere near the kitchen. we taught him how to show us he was scared by pounding his chest real lightly (like the heart beating) and he does that all the time. you would have to pull his arm to get him to go into the kitchen. i hope he forgets one day, as well as your sister. goodluck with everything! no more scaring little kids ;)

[Tung]

thats hecka messed. why would u let yoru lil sis watch those things -_-

[INSOMNIAC KID]

lol, I don't know if that's funny or sad. I think you really scarred him for life.

[sunissed14127]

You should have known better than that...you should have known a bab would be scared of things like that. she might be scared for a while now.

[tofuburger]

hahahaha..you only stopped cuz you got in trouble...hahahha
i woulda freaked out after seeing how she was trembling...and put her somewhere and ran...
i'm scared for you, man....

[_sarcastic_]

you shouldn't have done that
anyways i think it might affect her, but she'll probably forget about it.

[casssy]

..Why would you do something like that? =\

[sandy_lumpy_shor...]

ahh your mean >=[ uhhh maybe, depends on the pictures

[llpurpleskyll]

haha when i was young..i used to be in the house all by myself..so i would watch pretty disturbing shows on tv at night..such as a woman taking shower..n the shower turned to blood or something...

yes, it does have an effect...i am all screwed up now..you have no idea

[ShEraBaRoO]

What were you thinking? If you obviously felt her shaking in your lap why didn't you stop? No offense but you're a jackass for doing that to your sister.

haha u make me laugh man that was a long time ago and i stopped doing it cuz i was concerned for her. i dont need the name calling cuz the reason i posted this topic was to see what you guys think will happen to her cuz i am a concerned sister. i effin love my sister to death and i know what i did was horrible but man... have a brain and dont call people jackasses.

[ikayto]

We develop the fastest mentally from 0-5, those were our crucial years. Dont do shit like that to your sister, that's messed up. She's going to learn to associate loud sounds with fear and become messed up.

Just lay off that stuff, if you want to do somethng with your sister, read to her for god sakes..

[yuna*]

why would you do that to a 14month old baby? O_O

[yukichan]

it might affect her...i still remember stuff that was scary from like when i was 2 years old...what kind of pictures did u show her?

[SarahxJoy]

I think she'll be scared for a long time.
Be careful when you take her to scary movies.

[ilauqh]

dpends.. she might remember it forever or completely forget about it.

[Chii]

^^i doubt she'll ever forget...since she's a baby she'll probably process and interpret it in different ways because she doesn't know what it is yet...so she's going to have nightmares in the future...or worse, need a psychiatrist because of this

haha u make me laugh   man that was a long time ago and i stopped doing it cuz i was concerned for her. i dont need the name calling cuz the reason i posted this topic was to see what you guys think will happen to her cuz i am a concerned sister. i effin love my sister to death and i know what i did was horrible but man... have a brain and dont call people jackasses. 

you love her so much that you like to scare her?

i read that saying you love someone to death is a term that abusers use...because you're mentioning something beautiful (love) and comparing it to something horrible (death). it was in this "an idiot's guide to healthy relationships" or something...i was mad at my boyfriend and was about to buy it for him

my god, these types of things scar people for life

[whomps]

Dang, how many times do I have to use this?

----------

You're a bad person.

You're going to hell.
With Anna.

[*Azarel*]

Dang, how many times do I have to use this?

----------

You're a bad person.

You're going to hell.
With Anna.

Eve..

And what the fuck were you thinking, idiot!?

[inthemudhole]

Okay.
I'm sorry, but this thread has just made my day.
*rolling on the floor laughing*

Anyway.

Why in God's name did you continue to show her "scary clips" after it was obvious that she was terrified? I mean, you said it yourself...you felt her shaking, but you continued.

It may scar her for a little while.
Who knows.
It's hard to tell and it's different with every person.

Either way, that was a pretty stupid thing to do.

[Skyline Drive]

That is evil. Man. Let's hope she will be okay.

[sarso]

I once showed my little brother happy tree friends and that's some messed up stuff. But them being so little, I'm not sure flashing images or morbid things can totally affect them as much as you think. Just tell her to stick to butterflies and flowers...and no more scary stuff.

[toodlepops.]

i think it would affect her.
let's hope it doesn't

[gigiopolis]

I got scared of this weird moving badger thing when I was a baby. I always screamed and freaked out over it.

Babies cry over everything. Don't worry about it. Just don't do it anymore, because it MIGHT, then, present some problems.

[misoshiru]

it might. ever hear of classical conditioning and the little albert experiment by watson and rayner?

[perfectxflaw23]

I really hope it doesn't affect her. But you really don't know.. every person's mind is different and reacts differently. It very well could.

I don't understand why you would do that...

[EmmalieV]

your mean ! but she will prob forget , i hope so.

[*stephinika*]

lol aww poor kid...she should be fine but the poor kid...

[pAtRiCk_sTar]

She might forget....but then again, she might remember and have nightmares later in life. Hopefully that's as far it'll go, if anything goes

[miss barnes]

i dont know what will happen to her but, i find what u did funny as hell

[racoons > you]

^^

Thank You!, at least someone agrees with me

if she's f**ked up, nothing you can do now, so just revel in the sheer hilarity

[angel-roh]

That reminds me of my aunt's baby HAHAHA... I used to scare her by pretending like I dropped her like those ups and downs haha... those scary rides haha. I don't regret it because she's a spoiled brats... and I don't think it will affect them because they are babies and they don't know what's the word SCARY...they will probably forget like she forgot mine. now she's 4.. when i scared her...she was like 13 months?

[gelionie]

Umm... I think she will certainly have a lot of nightmares.
I dunno if she'll still remember those scary images, but she might have the first impression that you're not a nice sister.

[ShEraBaRoO]

ugh...i feel soo stupid! i thought she would cry over it but she didnt. she still had her eyes glued to the screen after i showed her. im soo mean.... *cry* i asked my mom who is a doctor if she will remember anything i showed her and she said that it will only affect my sister if i keep showing her everyday. it was only once and the last time i will.

[teeners4]

it realli depends, just suck up to her for the next few days

poor her though

[glit_gal]

maybe she was scared at the time but i hardly doubt it's going to impact her. I don't think when she grows up she'll even remeber it, just don't do it again because sometimes doing it a number of times can take an effect on her. I know what you mean cause i have a sister who's 3 years old now but when she was younger i used to scare her by like jumping out from a corner or something when i played with her, but i stopped doing it and she's fine now, so don't worry.

[Mr. Slowjamz]

when your young even when u were born things that surround u and the environment that you live in will definitely affect u , even if u dont remember. Possible things like specific colors or shapes does affect u when ur young .

it clarifies your brains nervous cells when your an infant , thats why there are soo many infant shows during weeday mornings.

your Sense cells start to open up and is more senstitive as an infant since ur getting used to the environment u live in .

if youve shown scary images of that ....i dont think she would remember , but she would hate it , and dislike it on the later years, maybe even traumatize her .

ive learned from this since my uncle studies the development age of infancy and is pediatrician and most of my friends who has "baby mama drama ".

if you surround ur infant in a heavy loud crowd , as a toddler the baby would be grumpy , active , and have tantrums . if your baby was surrounded with good people . the baby wouldnt be as bad in later years. soo basically yea ....u coudlve traumatized her. good thing u did it once .

one more thing . thats ....evil .......EVIL

[c0oki3_m0n$tah]

don't do that to your baby sister! that is sooo evil!!! maybe she'll start to see things when she gets older...and then blame you..and hate you...no j/p

[jennyjenny]

Why would you do that?...
Is that like a sick joke ...

Even I get scared of those things >_<

[BlissfulIgnoranc...]

aww that poor little girl.. it most likely will affect her when she gets older...she might become a very jumpy person or very timid girl

[doubleaxel1951]

OMG CALM DOWN WE ALL MAKE STUPID MISTAKES!!!
GEEZ............................... I KNOW SHARINA NAD SHE'S NOT SOME TERRORIST PERSON WHO ENJOYS BEING CRUEL TO BABIES AND JUST WATCHES THEM SUFFER, OMG CAN YOU GUYS GROW UP....

[demolished]

Yes, If yuo scare alot of image to her .. she's defintely going to remember it cuz i think you did more then enough for her to see scary image. Scaring a baby can cause nightmares and get scares easily when a baby is growing .. especially when a parent physically abuse their child and it affect a child's future .... i hope you just learn a lesson there.

[angel-roh]

Okay.
I'm sorry, but this thread has just made my day.
*rolling on the floor laughing*

Anyway.

Why in God's name did you continue to show her "scary clips" after it was obvious that she was terrified? I mean, you said it yourself...you felt her shaking, but you continued.

It may scar her for a little while.
Who knows.
It's hard to tell and it's different with every person.

Either way, that was a pretty stupid thing to do.

yeah i agree with brie... i thought it was kinda stupid to hear that you continuously showed her the scary clips... eep! as if like you want the baby to die. remember he/she is younger than you verrryy young.

[the_crox]

woah.... mm mm mm . you're licky she didn't stop breathing!

[ShEraBaRoO]

OMG CALM DOWN WE ALL MAKE STUPID MISTAKES!!!
GEEZ............................... I KNOW SHARINA NAD SHE'S NOT SOME TERRORIST PERSON WHO ENJOYS BEING CRUEL TO BABIES AND JUST WATCHES THEM SUFFER, OMG CAN YOU GUYS GROW UP....

AMANDA!!!!! SAVE ME!! people here are soo effing mean. its as if they have never made a mistake in their lives before. my baby sister doesnt have nightmares about it cuz she sleeps soundly at night and she still does. god, they just exaggerate this situation way too much!

[*jooleeah*]

^
What people on the internet try to say about you shouldn't be too important.

Although I agree with some people, it was a pretty stupid thing to do to a baby. Just don't do things like that again, okay? Hopefully your sister will forget all about that scary stuff.

[hollesther]

yes it will afect her.it will influence her to think about scrary thigns probably

[5ayuri]

oh thats really mest up well i think she wont remember you scaring her but i think that it will affect her.

[Wolverine0723]

Probably? But... shes barely over a year old and you do that to her.. what a good sis. ...your just stuppid, and cant handle a REALLY REALLY young sister..in my opinion.

[*mona lisa*]

don't do that. you can give her a scare and that probably will affect the baby's i guess brain development. i heard something like. whatever it is, don't do it.

[Miss[x]Tiff]

Wow youre stupid.

You scared her for life.

[XRAYUZAX]

IF I WOULD OF HAPPENED WHEN SHE WAS YOUNGER SHE WOULD PROBLAY FORGET IT..I THINK IT WILL BE OKAY DEPENDS OF THE IMAGES THO IF THERE REALLY BAD THEN IT COULD AFFECT HER LIFE WHEN SHE GETS OLDER A LITTLE BIT...

[Rachel]

w-tee-eff yo.

there was no point in bringing this topic back from like a month ago

[racoons > you]

^^

lol seriously

iis the baby dead? no? shocking? shut up.

if you're worried about long-term psychological damage, let usknow in 15 years. then i will be fascinated

*smiles sweetly*

now be quiet

[Chaos Bliss]

im sorry, but i think that was just horrible for you to do, what would even incourage you to scare a child. you disgust me.

[love-issosweet]

if she has a good memory...ooh, she'll remember it alright
if she has a short term memory, then you're okay

i have a good memory...so i remember everything

[*ilalaloveyou...]

my cousin did that to me once.
im still scared of the dark at 13, and clowns.
my cousin truamatized me. you probably did the same to your sister.
now why in the hell would you do something to that to a baby? WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH YOUR F'KIN HEAD?! it just gets me mad.

[Miss[x]Tiff]

AMANDA!!!!! SAVE ME!! people here are soo effing mean. its as if they have never made a mistake in their lives before. my baby sister doesnt have nightmares about it cuz she sleeps soundly at night and she still does. god, they just exaggerate this situation way too much!

were mean? youre the one who scared an innocent child. and your sig is played out.

[Chii]

OMG CALM DOWN WE ALL MAKE STUPID MISTAKES!!!
GEEZ............................... I KNOW SHARINA NAD SHE'S NOT SOME TERRORIST PERSON WHO ENJOYS BEING CRUEL TO BABIES AND JUST WATCHES THEM SUFFER, OMG CAN YOU GUYS GROW UP....

do you even know what a terrorist is?

terrorist: One that engages in acts or an act of terrorism.

terrorism: the systematic use or terror

yeah, she's nothing like a terrorist

[*salcha*]

it might, i guess it depends.
i still remember things all the way from when i was 3 years old.

[loljuliana]

Maybe she will get nightmares
But she might be too young to know what it was
She`ll prolly forget it later on

[fallen_angel1137]

Why would you do something like that in the first place? Obviously stupidity. I read somewhere that young kids who are exposed to something that scares them when they're little and don't understand its not real or whatever often have a phobia of that for a very long time. You're messed up...your mother must have dropped you on your head when you were a baby....

[tmauze]

oh my gosh that's AWFUL

[twisted_stripes]

yea, it will affect her sometime in the future.. hmm, depends actually! :D but wow. what u did is a little bad of you :D try showing her PRETTY pictures from now on :D

[*krnxswat*]

Sigh, another dumbnut we have.

[somekhmergirl]

she might remember it and be scared of certain images you showed her

[ShEraBaRoO]

ugh....dumb, stupid mistake. havent been on createblog for a long time... then i read what i did to my sister and...ugh. stupid.

yes, i am everything that you guys said i was. i havent done it since and my sister miraclously can sleep now and has been sleeping quite peacefully.

thanks for putting me in my place, i shouldve known.

[kryzcoak47luv666]

I don't think so, but you never know, I used to always be in the room with my parents when they watched horror movies (or so I'm told) and yeah I'm fine, I'm immune to horror movies, maybe she'll be immune too...

[belg]

no.. i dont think it wud affect her when she grows... ive done that to my niece before.. we were watching the Grudge(the japanese version) and when the ghost popped out... she was shaking like as if she were going to die... LOL

she's doing fine now.... LOL
