Well,
either you didn't watch the entire video,
or you "selectively" missed something, because I'm pretty sure that letting a child frolic about in a room with broken glass (that she broke) is probably not the best course of action. And I'd be willing to bet that the "ignore it, and it will go away" attitude is what caused this in the first place.

It's not like that's going to ruin your child's upbringing. Just one time you might consider grabbing your reacting child and holding him/her very tight and explaining over and over that you love him/her. Don't worry, I love you. Yes, don't worry, your father is here. I love you. I love you.

A teacher fondling a student and telling them "I love you"would
never involve the police being called and someone being handcuffed.
