The mom's story was tragic too. She was forced to neglect her son. She was working her butt off for her son and that a-hole. And in the end, she got this. I wish she didn't lash out and directly threaten him. That monster killed that innocent kid, and he still loved his monster of a dad.
It is likely that arguement was the last straw for her and didn't think to take her son immediately after she left in her anger
@@multilad816The mother left for 2 weeks…Remember Ron (the child) asked the doll how long was his dead body in the closet, the doll said 14 days…in those 2 weeks she never thought to come back for her son knowing how abusive her husband is/was??
@pxmpkxn6163 tbh in wondering if she knew the extent of her husband's abuse towards Ron or if she thought it was safe to take Ron. There's a lot of cases where taking the kid when you flee if you haven't fully moved out yet can cause more violence. My bets are on the mom not entirely knowing just how bad it gets because it seems she only comes back home by the time Ron should already be asleep.
Not to excuse her actions or anything I just have massive sympathy for her bc she lost her son and it seems like that the mom did love and care about Ron. She was pretty harsh in the intro though. Idk maybe it's just me thinking that losing her son is the biggest price to pay and that being absent and rude shouldn't be punished by your own son being killed by your husband. It's implied that she sold herself so to say just to provide for Ron and her husband who clearly was capable of getting a job.
What is even more sad is that stuff like this do happen😢
The most horrific part of the game is that things like this do happen. There are countless children whom are suffering in these abusive or neglectful households. And...some do end up loosing their lives. I hate how accurate some parts of this game is.
Poor Ron, he didn’t deserve to die, and he definitely didn’t deserve a father like that! Glad he got what was coming to him.
Hopefully, he'll have a warm welcome in prison
@@multilad816you are right about that BTW I wonder who does the Cat in this game represents?
Rip ron
Could be a guide or helper for dead children
@@multilad816 that could be a possible explanation
You're not going to lie the ending of this game is pretty sad. That little boy did not deserve to die the way he did 😢
Really ?
Spoiler warning
If you dont want spoilers why are you looking at the comments?
@@andredorukgood point 😂idk why I checked
@@JupiterPluto35why tf are you here then??? This entire video is basically a spoiler if you haven't played it so I don't get the logic
This story was so twisted and the game isn’t scary per say but the theme and story behind it. The fact that this can be a reality(not the ghost part).
This game is so fricking sad- but the little foot wiggle that lil Ron does at 00:06 is so adorable. He’s so smol, so precious.
This is honestly one of the saddest and most messed up games I’ve ever seen
But it also exposes the horrifying truth. Abuse is common around the world and some kids die at the hands of their abusive parents either intentional or not.
Such a simple story, but very effective. I look forward to what's next in the Bad Parenting saga. Looks like the dev is going for the self contained story approach in future chapters/games.
Watch the next one be about s****de or depression.

Your story explained videos make me way more interested in games I typically wouldn't be. Keep them coming.
Same
@@MrWhiteSuit17 same here, also do you think you could have your next story explained video on imaginary friend asylum?
This guy always uploads scary vids at the perfect times, 10-11pm when everyone’s going to sleep 😂 (unless you’re not in Europe or Africa then you can’t relate)
Africa here. I can.
Really? I live somewhere else, but I always WATCH them at night 😅
I may be wrong but I don't think that the object within the afterlife realm represents how they died but rather where their bodies are hidden. Since Ron got strangled to death yet his neck isn't broken in the afterlife part but is within a closet, which is exactly where the dad (Mr. Red face) hid him. So one of the kids was hidden in a trench, the other in a ruined car, and the last one was had probably his corpse burned
A theme of how the three kids appeared are all kinda like way to hide something you don't want to be found. I think the trench is like how in some shows and movies people who 'accidentally' killed bury the body of their victim in a attempt to bury their shame, like the kid may have been killed in a fit of rage and their parent felt guilty after, but couldn't handle the thought of going to someone and admitting what they had done. So they instead buried the kids body in a place they thought nobody would eve find it. The one who comes out of a car probably had their body hidden in the trunk of a car, and then maybe that car could've been scrapped with the kid's body still inside. I do agree with the thought of the one coming from the fire possibly having their body burned, as burning a body would be the easiest way to make the corpse unrecognizable and then only testing could be done to figure out who the corpse once was.
I have a theory i want to share!
Mr Redface is the spirit of drunkness or alcohol. Note how at the end of the game when the dad turns into Mr Redface, its only after he gets drunk. The doll states that Mr Redface takes away bad parents. Many bad parents turn to alcoholism, so that makes sense. Mr Redface probably takes away the children to his realm when they get killed by their drunk parents, explaining why Ron and the other kids are all dead and looking for their parents.
Mr Redface is Ron's father
Mr Redface is his Dad whenever he drinks. That was obvious when they showed that his father became red faced after drinking
@@tylercoep0588 Of course
@@tylercoep0588 yes but why would he also take the other kids?? It was said that Mr Redface takes away bad parents and their kids, like how alcohol can take parents away from their children.
@@Muffin_Master It's just a way to make Ron into the adventure to accept the truth
Here is the full timeline I can get out of it.
1. Dad and Mom had an argument, which led to the mom leaving that night and the dad did him and hid him in the closet.
2. The dad left the house the next day due to guilt / to freed from his crime.
3. The mom came home the next day late as always but didnt't see the dad, so she thought he left due to her threat.
4. Ron's ghost could only be seen at night, which meant everytime she came home, her son was always there, so she didn't realize he was already gone.
5. The doll / Ron's inner self tried to have Ron made peace with what happened, but since the horror was too traumatized for the child to bear, he just repressed that memories again and again. This is why the mom talked about how Ron talked different stories everyday, but the doll had always been a part of them.
6. As a last straw, instead of having Ron experience the horror of what the dad did to him directly, the doll created the Mr. Red Face's version of his dad and made Ron defeat him to save his parents and establish a bit of peace of mind, so hopefully, Ron didn't break and reset once again. This worked and Ron finally realized what happened.
7. At the final day, the mom decided to stay home with Ron. However, when she woke up in the day, she didn't see Ron at the dad's bed ('cause he couldn't appear at day time). She searched for him and found him in the closet.
I didn't have bad parents growing up but this game hurts me because it reminds me that others do have bad parents, and it makes me sad.
When I finished watching 8-BitRyan play this I went to hug my dad, just to remind myself that I’m with a good family. I feel so bad for kids who have abusive parents.
Always enjoy when Mike does these types of videos. Plays the game, then a recap/secrets vid.
The amount of foreshadowing the ending, is so cleverly done that it's honestly impressive
I like the symbolism of this game its fairly straightforward when you connect it to reality. I liked the bittersweet ending as well the child died and that can't be fixed both the Mom and Ron have to mourn the loss of the other and move on
Honestly, the doll being Ron's "knowing part" and "trying to get him to remember" can be seen as Ron coping - children cope through playing out as what they experienced, often they do it over and over again. Also, since getting medicine for hallucinations isn't exactly immediate and in most places you'd need a prescription, I'm assuming Ron always was mentally ill, and that's why his father blamed him and killed him.
I always love these Story Explained videos, it's been a few months since the last one! Great scripting and editing along with your smooth voice, as always!
A video game called bad parenting? This should be intriguing.
The way i realized that the bottle scene at the end, how the glass smash was also the exact scene when the doll was using its powers mimicking the dad's drinking habits at the table just for ron to remember 😭
I don’t think the kids at the end are showing how they died, they’re showing where their bodies were left.
The baby (I’m assuming it’s a diaper) was dumped in the trunk of a car. The girl was buried. The boy with the red hair was burnt. And Ron, our protagonist, was hidden in the closet.
That horrid dad should have just ditch his wife and son like any other deadbeat, neglectful dad instead of what happen in this game.
5:31-5:38 The blonde boy probably have loving parents, but they are reckless dare devils that caused his and possibly their demise in the car. The red head boy was likely burned to his doom in a campfire for a ritual or just neglectful on keeping an eye on him. The girl was buried alive for ticking them off, to cover up her illegitimate birth, or saw something that she shouldn't see.
I missed those Story Explained videos so much!!!
It's been a long time since Mike did these Story Explained videos.
Welcome back, dude!
There’s something that remains unanswered, what does Mr Redface do to bad kids?
There are bad parents in a game called "Bad Parenting"???? PREPOSTEROUS!!!
The title says it all. . .But in game it goes into that.
And to quote this that people know. Not all parents deserve to have children.
Yall go support the owner of the game so that we can get traumatized some more!
My friend introduced me to this game a while back and seeing one of my favorite RUclipsrs play and explain it makes me happy :]
I’m showing this to my friend instead of explaining by myself because it’s just easier
Thank you so much for uploading this video on my birthday 🥳
Happy birthday!
@@allanaisawesome1465thank you
Happy birthday🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthdayyyy🎉
Happy b-day
Its kinda amazing how every moment in the game ends up coming together
Daddy issues - The Story explained
The major foreshadowing throughout the game and the story as a whole is just... wow.
As they say: "Every kid deserves a parent. Not every parent deserves a kid".
The son's loyalty is crazy imagine still thinking your dad is good when in reality he literally has a inhuman behavior towards the son being drunk and strangling the son to death
I remember Mike playing this game on the channel, though wasn't expecting the story explained one. No matter, still captures the game to a T. If they do release another one, I wonder what kind of story it will contain. Will it be about a kid who died in a hospital from a bad parent(s) or something along those lines? Maybe in the afterlife, they'll see Ron there as well
When i wached your play through of this game i remember thinking that the kid in the car got kidnaped hence why hes in the trunk.
To be honest there's a morbid beauty to this game. The boy let's go and is able to move on, but not without his spirit helping his dear momma find his monster.
Something key in Bad Parenting intrigued me- the medicine scene. If said medicine had no relevance, there wouldn't be a full chunk set aside to call its existence out… so whose is it, and why is it emphasized? I think it’s actually the Mom’s medicine, not her son's, but it's hard to pinpoint when and why she is taking it. Is it a mental health pill prescribed after her son’s murder? Is she suffering from trauma-based delusions, hence her thinking he's alive and they're his pills? Was she already on them before the game’s events altogether, to help cope with financial stress from her alcoholic husband and unwanted son? Deliberate attention to a small element like this medicine is exactly what makes short games like Bad Parenting so interesting.
Classic explanting video back round song
Damn… this is just- sad… the ending made me cry a bit. Those poor little fellas died in horrid ways from terrible parents… they didn’t deserve their fates… :(
Fir the ending, the kids location isn't how they died, it's where thier bodies were left.
I love the small foreshadowing with the doll having a limp neck, which foreshadows the dad/ Mr. Redface snapping the boys neck. The little details in this game triggers my autism
Alright honestly, I haven’t played a single video game since N64 Mario Kart in roughly 2002… but I be watching Super Horror Bro videos, knowing absolutely nothing about the games or characters, every night while I try to fall asleep and ENJOY EVERY SECOND OF IT
So happy to see story explained again, was really starting to miss the lore based videos over lets plays
Genuine question for discussion - would you guys rather have bad parents or no parents 🤔
No parent gang
At least with no parents I’ll be Batman
I've been waiting for a story explained video...I love binge watching these.
Missed these Story Explained videos. Thanks for the video, Mike!
Finally! I love these Story Explained videos!
He wanted to save his father, damn.
Ron is such a sweetheart, how unfortunate that he got a bad family
Finally another story explained. It's the reason I watch this channel. I love the calculated explanation
This game is so sad, poor little Ron, he didn't deserve it! I'm glad his father is arrested, he got what was coming at him! Also AWESOME story explained! ❤❤❤❤❤
Does that mean the mother was taking care of her son's corpse as if he never died until she finally called police?
Personally I don’t think the trunk kid was a car accident or he’d be in a seat. I think he was murdered and stuffed in the trunk ala Caylee Anthony.
Friggin finally almost forgot that you did these story explained videos
This whole game got me sobbing
Yesssss, I was waiting for this vid. I really think this is the best indie horror game in a while
I just finished playing this game yesterday and the ending made me cry so much 💔
I have a feeling that some games like this one shows the consequences of drunk parents, bad parenting and toxic parents and their impact on their children.
Peoples face get red when they are drunk, that’s why his name is “Mr.Redface”
Why dose it feel like I heard this before
I honestly expected the game to end in a worse way; it's depressing that the events turned out the way that they did, although at least the father is now behind bars and both the mother and child are at peace.
Hello Mike have a great day
I love this game. The story is fragile and well put together. It makes my heart ache.
I believe the kids didn’t die by what they were hanging out in but that was how their bodies was disposed of, like how Ron was sitting in a closet when hanging out with the other kids
Been waiting for this
I felt pretty bad for Ron; especially since he had neglectful parents.
Finally he's back for a story telling
ngl never even watched or play this game but every damn explanation video I watched of this knowing the little boy die unjustly and the other lil kids died because of their parents too always makes me tear up bruh
That's crazy I just watched that video plus it has been a while since he did this, Great job Mike 🎉
Honestly I love this game because of the twist I haven't seen that done before but its also just so depressing its scary because of the reality of it and not jump scares or anything
Wow, this was certainly something i didnt know i needed. Its sad, but still an amazing story.
The unwanted feeling i got watching this because my name is ron...
YEAHHH IM EARLY, This story was so sad, literally broke my heart watching it :(
I say this isnt as like- scary as in spooked me,but very disturbing. And the fact how reality is like this is what is genuinely scary.
Bad parenting on a Monday. Very bad parenting on a Monday.
Mr red face scared the shit out of me. such a sad story
It feels illegal to be here so early
When will only be a matter of time before horror games make people want to abandon their fathers.
The mom may have been cheating on her husband but she's still a better parent then the dad Kinda. She could've taken her child away from the dad but hey can't change the past
Not me waiting for this for ages:
Yo the minute it came out gang!!
I have a theory about the food
Ron never ate all of his food, he just imagined he was and the food Ron doll spawned in was just the unfinished food
Yay I was so confused about the story bad parents
i remember being a young kiddo watching these story explained videos ah the memories
Thank you for your video. I love you videos so much and I hope you make more videos in the future. ❤❤
This video is sad and I can't believe some people can do this to hurt their own kids they bring them into this world.😢
I like the video mike good work its very well made
The ending is bittersweet just like little misfortune (true ending)
bro finally uploaded a story explaining video after 5 or 4 months
Least the mom wasn’t bad I’m glad she cared about her son the ending was pretty sad though
This story explain us that the Alcohol can ruin your entire family and alcohol is the biggest enemy to kill someone by drunk
The only thing that scare me on this game is the dad design 💀
Oh yeah I saw the gameplay of this game and it was intense and the story was sad 😢😢
the concept of the game is interesting but the writing is so sloppy and janky
some of these dialogues would really benefit from some better wording and interpunction
This game makes me so sad.
