As a Child, Now Emotional Damage

As a child: Now:

A rapid video montage contrasts carefree childhood moments with increasingly intense adult reactions. Scenes of a smiling girl and family interactions are paired with men laughing, facepalming, crying, bleeding, or lying motionless, under the labels “As a child” and “Now:”. The joke is that growing up turns innocent happiness into stress, embarrassment, pain, and emotional exhaustion; dramatic music amplifies the exaggerated downward spiral and makes it work as a reaction to adulthood.
