The video that went viral on social media site X (formerly Twitter) shows a man and a woman who look like they are drunk, trying to keep their balance while pulling their child across the ground. It looked like the child couldn’t do anything, but they were pulling them along in a way that many people compared to taking out trash in a bag. People were shocked by how casual the act was, which made them worry right away about the child’s safety.
Netizens lashed out in response to the news
Soon after the video went viral, social media went crazy. A lot of people wrote about it, calling it “inhumane” and “a disgrace to parenting.” Some said it was like hurting animals and stressed that this kind of treatment of a child is not only upsetting but could also be risky. One person wrote, “This isn’t funny—it’s child abuse,” and another said, “If this is the new trend in parenting, we are in big trouble.”
Know-how Call to Take Responsibility
People who work to protect children have been quick to say how serious the situation is. Family counsellors say that putting a child through such shame and danger, even when the person is drunk, can leave lasting physical and mental scars. Legal experts say that if the act is proven to be true, it could be against the law and lead to an investigation by child protection officials.
Ethics and modern parenting are being looked at closely
The video has started a new talk about how to be a good parent in this age of “viral content.” Some people say that this kind of risky behaviour is caused by a dangerous mix of drug use and the need for attention on social media. One observer said, “Children pay the most when parents lose sight of their duty.”
What’s to Come
Even though the authorities haven’t said anything publicly about what happened yet, many people online are calling for action to be taken right away. The video keeps going around, and it’s a scary reminder of how parents can be careless, even if they’re not trying to hurt their kids.
