Only thing the dad did wrong is set a bad example by getting caught laughing. Don't they say comedy is tragedy sped up?

Personally I wouldn't immediately lmao if I learned that my child had killed an animal hours prior, but yeah, I wouldn't go as far as accusing him of being a psychopath either

It'd be highly context sensitive for me. I had a horrific hamster accident as a kid myself, so I might laugh out of pure unprocessed trauma.

or with distance. like slipping in the mud, that's a tragedy. now tripping someone and seeing them slip in the mud, that's comedy gold.

Exactly. It's very human to find mirth in any misfortune that we have no emotional connection to.
