The worst thing that can happen to a parent at the hands of their young child is often the things they don't imagine.

And the experience of something as random as a toddler kicking a phone out of your hand with a quick extension of their tiny limb is enough to render you numb.

Toddler kicks father's phone

The apt caption read:

"Guys … use protection."

The moment that plays out, expectedly, lit up the timeline as the clip of the innocent (or not) incident frazzled plenty of kiddies' parents.

It starts with the preoccupied father looking at his phone while relaxing on the couch with his son nearby.

After the toddler shifts from practically being on top of him, he quietly perches himself down.

But that quiet lasts only seconds as, in the ensuing moments, the restless kiddo is up on his legs and, after taking one step towards his father, kicks up and into the phone with purposeful accuracy.

This sends the device flying out of the man's hand and clattering on the tile floor, bouncing twice before resting.

The father appears incredulous, staring back and down towards the phone in its now-ruined state.

He hangs his head, grinding his teeth, as the moment comes full circle, and then, as if understanding he messed up, the little boy slips off the couch.
