For almost 95% of human history we have been literally living in fear of predators and we got this far. Now something like this will turn a child into a damaged snowflake. Relativity
And there’s gonna be way stronger of perceived danger when technology allows you to put a scary object behind you and make it follow you and touch your shoulders. That shit is probably so real to a 7 year old. They don’t understand shit.
Do you think 8 year olds running from a sabertooth didn’t traumatize them? And do you think a 7 year old knows how to distinguish real danger from fake but seemingly real danger? No lol. “Well I know it’s not real as a 35 year old, so the 7 year old shouldn’t fear it”. Exactly what the parents think. “So I’m going to create an artificial danger for their highly susceptible mind”

Should never do this to a child. The fear and trauma will get permanently embedded into their brains.
