The Daily Mail says one dad took to TikTok to share a pro tip for parents disciplining during the holidays. He shared a video of himself throwing an empty box made to look like his kid’s present into a roaring fire.
The user @Bennyg7070 posted the video on TikTok with the caption, “Christmas is coming, and here is a sure fire way to ensure your little darlings behaving proper.”
The video posted 4 days ago has now exploded with views and comments. It currently has over 21.2 million views and almost 28,000 comments.
Many people have expressed their distaste for the video, calling it abusive. User @thedutchhijabi says “‘how to cause trauma to children'”. @_zosax_ commented “traumatizing children niceeeeeee” with a thumbs-up emoji. @frotmega said, “if you need to do this to get your kids to behave, then the issue is NOT with the kids.”
Other people think it’s hilarious. @bigsisjunko commented “‘How to end up in a retirement home'”. User @cantthinkofaname3 says “this is brilliant”.
What’s your opinion?
@bennyg7070 Christmas is coming, and here is a sure fire way to ensure your little darlings behaving proper. #christmas #hack #lifehack #fire #children
