In this video, we see a mother who is so distracted by her phone that she is not even aware that her child is within her surroundings. In fact, she is so engrossed in her screen that she does not even realize that her own child is missing.

in this video we witness a dad teaching a mother a very valuable lesson now i'm aware that this
00:00:07.200
video upset a lot of people but before i give you my thoughts on it i i want you guys to to take a
00:00:13.200
look and get your initial feeling of the video first and then i'll let you know what i think so
00:01:17.760
yeah so i think that speaks to the state of our culture right now she is so distracted by her
00:01:37.320
phone that she's not even aware of her surroundings she's not aware what's going on including the fact
00:01:43.480
that her child is within her surroundings and they're out in public at night you really shouldn't
00:01:51.320
be facing away from your child looking in your phone i think we can all agree hopefully on that
00:01:59.000
point what now i think the issue here a lot of people have is whether it was kind for the dad to
00:02:07.320
do this to her and put her through this emotional distress look i think it's great i completely
00:02:14.600
agree with what he did is a valuable lesson and unfortunately as human beings we tend to only
00:02:21.880
learn things through action right when you're a kid if you touch the hot stove you're not going to
00:02:27.800
touch it again because you've already touched it you know we have this curiosity and it's only through
00:02:33.800
that curiosity that we can learn things and that's only through action you know using the stove example
00:02:39.640
a mother could say to a child a million times don't touch the stove it's hot you're going to get hurt
00:02:44.120
you're going to get hurt but really it's only when the child touches the hot stove and they actually
00:02:49.800
have that experience of ow that hurts that they're never they're definitely never going to touch that
00:02:55.720
hot stove again i actually had a similar experience when i was a kid for christmas i got some money
00:03:01.880
and i left the money lying around somewhere and my cousin took the money and sort of pretended that
00:03:08.920
it was stolen or whatever and i panicked i'm like where's the money gone and i had the same reaction
00:03:15.080
as this lady i'm looking around and i'm completely lost and then my cousin pulls out the money is like
00:03:20.200
don't leave your money lying around and you know what was a great lesson i've never left my money lying
00:03:25.640
around since soon as i get any kind of money in a gift or whatever it goes straight in my purse and my purse
00:03:31.000
goes in my bag and i think that's just an example of how experiences shape our behavior more than
00:03:37.960
anything else because her husband may well we don't know the context here we don't know the history
00:03:43.800
behind this her husband may well have told her before you need to be more aware of your surroundings
00:03:49.560
you need to be more aware of what's going on around you especially when you're looking after our baby
00:03:54.520
and this may have happened well before this incident and this incident may be the peak of
00:04:00.440
some ongoing story that we perhaps don't know about i'm speculating i could be completely wrong
00:04:06.280
either way even if this was the first instance of this i completely agree with what he's done i think
00:04:11.160
it's absolutely necessary i actually think it's appalling that she could be so engrossed with something
00:04:17.480
that's going on on her screen to not even realize that her own child is being taken away even after
00:04:27.000
she realized that the child's gone notice what she's still holding on to she doesn't drop the phone
00:04:33.960
i think there's a very valuable lesson for us to learn here about how addicted we are to these things
00:04:39.720
and how important they've become in our lives that even when a woman has lost her child the child
00:04:46.040
has been seemingly kidnapped that's that's still she's still clinging on to that it's the fact that
00:04:53.320
even as soon as she realized the child is gone the first place she checked is the little
00:04:58.440
i don't know what it's called but the little flap thing like like the child's going to be in there
00:05:03.480
it's like her brain isn't even working logically and she doesn't know what to do with herself
00:05:09.000
she's just sort of looking around completely lost because her attention was elsewhere and she just
00:05:14.680
doesn't know what to do so look the only way for us to really learn unfortunately a lot of the time
00:05:23.480
is the hard way and that's through experience it's through action and i think the husband has done
00:05:29.880
an absolutely great job here of teaching her a very valuable lesson and hopefully she takes that
00:05:37.640
lesson on board and she becomes more aware of her surroundings and she knows when to put the phone
00:05:43.160
down and realize where you are to be a bit more aware and have more attention on your child than you
