It is common for children to give their parents a tough time quite often than expected. From being cranky to throwing tantrums, there’s never an uneventful day with kids in the house. But have you ever pictured a parent whining just like a baby?
You might have heard the classic idiom, “Kids will be kids.” It’s true that children have a lively streak and can light up any room they walk into. There’s never a dull day around little ones because they possess the magical talent to lift our dampened spirits
But truth be told, it can be quite a handful to reason with these rays of sunshine sometimes. They can be a little hard to reason with and convince because, astonishingly enough, they tend to act stubbornly and stand their ground whenever they want.
A Demanding Kid
A South African woman left the netizens in stitches after her queer response to her child’s behavior went viral. She was in a grocery store with her little boy when he suddenly became demanding and started asking for stuff.
After trying to reason with her and failing, she was determined not to walk away with the embarrassment. So, she thought of a clever idea to tackle the situation and teach her son a lesson, leaving him dumbfounded!
In an unexpected turn of events, she fell to the floor and threw an enormous tantrum, rolling around and screaming at the top of her voice. Her son watched in morbid horror as his mom acted like a kid, something quite strange for a parent!
The Son’s Reaction
The boy’s facial expressions were a mix of shock, confusion, and plain disapproval as he looked at his mom with his arms folded and walked away. We’re sure several questions would have crossed his mind then, but he knew he could not argue.
Shortly afterward, the woman got up, looked sternly at her child, and walked away. She shared the video on TikTok in March 2023, with the in-lay text reading, “No child is gonna [embarrass] me.” The clip was captioned as follows:
Stop asking for stuff when we don’t have money.”
“Now..who is parenting the other.?You should be in charge by instilling discipline in that boy not doing what he does (sic).”
