to mine it’s normal.

No in general

yeah

No

to me it depends on the usage of whats being taken

if the kid doesnt use it enough, i dont think its worth taking

No like what if the child is really good at it and could make a possible career out of it

personally, i support taking it if they value that object over things that are arguably more important (like family or schoolwork)

Okay fair but what if it permanently taken and the child loses interest of those things because losing them killed off the desire to do those things and now the child grows up doing something else feeling unhappy because they aren't using the talent given to them

thats completely different, thats abusive

I see, now what about taking everything out of a child's bedroom (including furniture) because they keep forgetting certain things

thats even worse

Now what if I told you hypothetically I was threatened these things by my parents

do you have a plan for when they do? and why?

Well you see I'm just gonna put in extra effort in things to keep them from doing that and why Is because I don't want my future to be changed

fair enough

yes
