How to profit from humiliating your kids.

I don't know what's the correct punishment for this situation because I don't know enough about the kids, the tub damage (I want pictures of the tub), or the situation in general to understand whether or not these kids deserved it. However, what I do know is that if the parents only posted the toys on eBay without an explanation, it would have gotten very little attention. Thanks to the fact they posted the picture of the depressed kids with the backstory, it already has a bid of $122.50 and 150,000+ views. Considering how there's another seven days left to the bid and the backstory has made some people want to buy the toys just so they can send it back to the kids, this was a very smart financial move on the part of those parents. That crying child alone will make some people want to bid high just so they won't lose more toys.

Edit-

Current bid: US $10,100.01

Haha.

horrible parents

it's not like the kids had malicious intent, they were just playing, and the parents probably didn't say a thing until they saw the damage when they flipped out and proceeded to shame their children.
