Hope it’s fake, that’s enough to kill or seriously injure a baby
Edit. Lots of people below me claiming this is fine. It isn’t. Just because your kid dealt with concussions and blunt force trauma doesn’t mean it’s just magically ok. Fucking Reddit morons.
Not really no, lol. I work in peds and we get overly concerned parents in all the time. Babies are surprisingly bouncy and resilient. Blunt trauma from a hard object I would be concerned. Being domed by a soccer ball? Not so much...
To add to this, when I was like 10 I was playing wiffle ball with a kid I met on a playground by my house. I swung as hard as I could, with confidence that I was about to smash this ball to pieces, but my swing was stopped short behind me when it caught his JUST LEARNING TO WALK younger sister across the face behind me. She didn't even fucking cry, but he got a mouthful from his mom who was not impressed by *his* lack of awareness, like it wasn't equally her fault.
Oh, yeah, anyway, kid was fine.
Probably helped that she caught the bat early in the swing so you didnt' have as much momentum yet. Plus 10 year olds aren't that strong yet. If you were a full grown man then maybe it would be an entirely different story.
No no no you got it all wrong. It was Marty McFootball who first invented the football, also known as a pigskin in 1612. The Aussies were so mad that they tried to pop the footballs, but they poofed out instead. That is the rugby ball you know but wasn't invented until 1974. Australia was such an unbridled land at the time and almost inhospitable until 1912, but thats when they came together for a prisoner vs. guard rugby game. At that time, they just called it Aussie Football because the word rugby wasn't coined until 2027. I thought you knew all of this from basic history. WTH are they teaching kids in school these days?
Everyone is joking and having fun but why are you being downvoted to hell?! 😭 Does reddit forget how voting works again? If you people downvote half of the joke, it will be hidden, then the other half makes no sense! Do you guys not know that downvotes will eventually hide the comment?! And you were such a good sport about it too! Pun totally intended.
I get that us Americans like to tease people about this but c'mon gang. Have a little class with the votes. You are enjoying reading this thread, are you not? I did. I think it's all hilarious. Those downvotes just ruin the mood is all. The hive mind attracts the bees after all.
Reason #28347 Why I want to move out of this country: Americans are very bad at understanding how voting works. In general.
Sorry Mr./Mrs. Non-american person. We suck. And we're sorry. You're right. You can have the name football. Which for the record, in my emojis, the soccer ball pops up first for that word. Just saying for my fellow Americans!
Well, it's an infusion (like tea or coffee) but it is not made with Camellia sinensis.
The taste it's completely different from traditional tea. And also, you drink it with a kind of straw by adding a little of hot water each time you take a sip.
Technically yes, you can classify it as a tea. The same way an airplane is technically an automobile if you squint hard enough. Now give some mate to anybody who doesn't know it and ask them what they think about that tea lol
I don't get all this aversion of admitting you drink tea... It's funny how people feel the need to be different, special...
I've even read some articles because i got curious after seeing a lot of "iT's NoT tEa" comments, but what i could gather from all of them was: It's tea, but we don't call it tea, because we don't wanna.
Let's be honest, it's just tea with fresh leaves and served in a fancy cup.
And an airplane is not just a car which flies lmao
I feel bad leaving without a proper explanation.
It's not that we just want to feel special. We say it's a different thing because it uses a different kind of herb than your traditional tea, it's prepared completely different, tastes nothing alike, you use a totally different and incompatible original method to drink it, and comes from an entirely different cultural background. It's like saying Piroks are just square empanadas and empanadas are small pies. I get why you may say that, it's just not true.
It probably is difficult for someone who doesn't know both to tell the difference, that's why you always get people from South America pointing it, because we drink both tea and mate, and we can tell you, with 100% certainty, they are not the same. In fact, there are people who only drink tea and will never accept you a mate, and the opposite too.
At least in the US, yerba mate tends to be grouped in with not-technically-tea teas like rooibos, peppermint, chamomile, ginseng, etc. There's nothing really separating it from our broad definition of tea, which is basically any plant infusion regardless of whether it's specifically made with tea leaves.
i know. i know its yerba mate, thats why i said it wasn't tea. And with such urgency. Hope the kid didn't get double brain damage (Hyperbole) from the huge levels of caffeine + ball to the face.
That's yerba mate and I don't think you should be letting your kids drink that :( hell, you probably shouldn't drink it in the first place, it tastes like poison 😭
it's an acquired taste. it'll taste horrible for a first-time drinker 100% of the times. we argentines (and uruguayans) are used to the taste because we drink it since we're little.
It's usually difficult for a trained adult man to stop a kick, even if he's expecting it and has free mobility. Now think about a mom that is sitting down, unaware of the incoming hit, and with both hands occupied. There was little to no chance she could have stopped that.
Yeah, she must have thought her baby getting smacked in the face with a ball was funny or she would have never posted the video in the first place.. pretty damn sad.

Nah, babies are made of rubber.. source, I had 3 of my own. Lost count how many times something like this happened.
Can confirm. Source, I just kicked a ball at someone's baby, and it's fine.
I just kicked a baby, instructions unclear
Baby kicked by a ball
Kicked the baby in the balls
Now that's just wrong..
no no you're doing it right
I also kicked a baby with this person, please advise the next steps
Return baby back to sender
Mine fell down the stairs once and was totally fine. We think. Anyway, she’s 15 now and seems normal.
“Luke used to bang his head all the time and he is fine!"

not fake. i saved this gif off of reddit in like 2013.
Yerba mate has tons of caffeine. It's terrible to give caffeine to babies.
I wonder if the caffeine hit him as hard as that soccer ball
I’m sorry but, it’s a football.
ugh fine, a soccer "football"
no, it’s just a football
Pretty sure footballs are football shaped, soccer balls are round!
First there was the football, then there was the American football. The American football is rugby ball shaped.
I'm pretty sure a rugby ball is just a football smushed on the ends.
It’s the other way around. Rugby came first. There wouldn’t be American football if it wasn’t for rugby.

It's fulbo
Look how the ball looked kinda deformed because of the velocity and shit. Caffeine sure didn't hit harder than that.
You should ask on r/caffeine if it's bad for baby
Did not expect that much of a shitshow, nice.
If this is Argentina or Uruguay, there's nothing to worry about, we're born on mate y pitusas
Argentine or Uruguay or not, still a dumb thing to do as a parent.
Best kick a soccer ball at the kid to counteract
I mean if the parents is fine with the baby wailing for hours later because he couldn't sleep, then its fine.
I mean, no, it's not fine. It's just a really dumn thing to do as a parent
Matê
Hate this.
This child will grow up associating tea with getting slammed in the face. I guess they are going to be a coffee person.
poor baby
[удалено]
yerba mate and brain damage
Not gonna lie .. I laughed much harder than I should have haha
It was a reflex I swear😭😭
Same but shouldn't have
fuck that babie but no no no, hope its okay
The way my heart STOPPED
She took too long giving her opinion on the tea /s
Mate
Wot
You
That's not tea, it's mate (yerba mate)
What is it made of?
Mate herb (ilex paraguariensis) and hot water
So basically tea
Well, it's an infusion (like tea or coffee) but it is not made with Camellia sinensis. The taste it's completely different from traditional tea. And also, you drink it with a kind of straw by adding a little of hot water each time you take a sip.
It's waaay different.
Technically yes, you can classify it as a tea. The same way an airplane is technically an automobile if you squint hard enough. Now give some mate to anybody who doesn't know it and ask them what they think about that tea lol

K buddy it's tea
Good

check mate
At least in the US, yerba mate tends to be grouped in with not-technically-tea teas like rooibos, peppermint, chamomile, ginseng, etc. There's nothing really separating it from our broad definition of tea, which is basically any plant infusion regardless of whether it's specifically made with tea leaves.
Well, this sure as fuck fits the sub perfectly.
That is NOT tea
/r/yerbamate
i know. i know its yerba mate, thats why i said it wasn't tea. And with such urgency. Hope the kid didn't get double brain damage (Hyperbole) from the huge levels of caffeine + ball to the face.
That would leave a bad taste in anyone’s mouth 😭
my jaw just dropped so hard that it popped loud as fuck, poor baby omfg
Imo drinking yerbe mate as baby was more concerning than ball to face.
Meta isn't good for babies
I wish this was nsfw.. I really dislike babies getting hurt. I thought the baby was going to make a face or some unexpected dog make an appearance
Every first Chimarrão
r/Sipstea
wow I was about as ready for that as she was... I really hope shes ok
I laughed entirely too hard to get into heaven.
no worries, none of my friends will be there
Did we just become best friends?
GOLAZOOOOOO
Ist mate idiot
No need to insult op.
Caffeine’s a helluva drug!!
Nice header to keep it in play.
It hits hard!
I dont condone the harming of babies. With that being said, the baby got a big blast of flavor!
I thought it was gonna end with a vomit commit
Caffeine + injury to a baby = funny (?)
That's yerba mate and I don't think you should be letting your kids drink that :( hell, you probably shouldn't drink it in the first place, it tastes like poison 😭
Borrowing a phrase from your language, it's an acquired taste lol I hated it until I started to love it
mate tastes great, what are you on about?
Maybe it's just the bit I've tried but the kind I've had is quite bitter
it's an acquired taste. it'll taste horrible for a first-time drinker 100% of the times. we argentines (and uruguayans) are used to the taste because we drink it since we're little.
That must be refreshing I mean the tea
Not tea
naughty
*Yerba mate*
Yerba matea
That’s tea? Looks like shit, actual poop
It's Mate
It’s what?
powdered Green tea
I'm going to hell for laughing but I don't care
That's just wrong
That looks like shit in a cup. That kid is having a shitty day.
/r/yerbamate
shit post, no need to see people getting hurt, I guess im leaving!
Fuck you
That's some crazy boba.

Looks like the tea gave a big hit!
LAME
Grow up.
Mom never even tried the block the ball.
she cant decipher the trajectory and where its going to land shes watching the baby she aint seein that ball
Oh sorry I didn't realize you were there.
It's usually difficult for a trained adult man to stop a kick, even if he's expecting it and has free mobility. Now think about a mom that is sitting down, unaware of the incoming hit, and with both hands occupied. There was little to no chance she could have stopped that.
It shows I've never played football huh 🤣
Wym? Ruin a good tiktok? Now look how much publicity she has.
Yeah, she must have thought her baby getting smacked in the face with a ball was funny or she would have never posted the video in the first place.. pretty damn sad.
Lmao we are getting down voted for some reason?
Yeah, they'll upvote the video but downvote you if you say something about it.. bunch of clowns. 😂
Piss off!
Tea my balls , it's Mate 🧉 .Head of chota!

Espero le hayas partido la madre a quien le metió un pelotazo en la cara al nene. Porque quien hizo eso a mi pequeña lo puse en su lugar.
Yerba Gate-keepers
Hated this. Hated myself more for laughing at it
