People all over the world were recently left horrified by footage of parents frightening their kids with scary Snapchat filters, and another concerning video has raised an important question: how far is too far when teaching kids a lesson?

 

A mum has gone viral this week for schooling her young daughter, who claimed she was not afraid of anything, in a particularly harsh manner.

 

Uploaded by Facebook user Milian Lee – who emphasises that the girl in the video is not her child, the video shows the little girl watching a piece of footage with a terrifying surprise at the end.

 

The video - which has reportedly since been taken down by the original Facebook poster - shows the child getting an almighty fright, to the point where she actually falls over with shock.

 

Naturally, the video has been ripped and re-uploaded onto other sites and has prompted many parents to question if this was too harsh a way to teach a child a lesson.

 

Referring to the title of the video, one Facebook user commented: “Not worst mum but very cruel and thoughtless.”

 

Commenting on how this could impact on the child, another wrote: “Wow that’s just stupid! Kids are not [designed] to handle such horror. It could affect them mentally, emotionally and possibly physically, as they are quite delicate and so very young.”

 

What are your thoughts?

 

Worst mum ever!!!!
