Amy, who did her weekly grocery shop with her partner and toddler at her local supermarket on a seemingly ordinary Sunday morning, received 2.4 million views with a lot of negative comments. The mom had added a text in her video that read: “Pov: the line behind you is growing, and people are looking at you, but you don’t care because your child is learning, and rushing is what gives young children anxiety.
The proud mom wrote in the caption: “Sunday mornings helping mum and dad. I think we make a pretty great team, #toddlerlife.”Despite the clip featuring a happy toddler seemingly assisting his mother with the groceries, many viewers were angry that Amy wasn’t being considerate of other people’s time by ignoring the line behind her.“And being courteous and considerate to other ppls time is also a great life skill,” a Tiktok user commented.
The publication also noted that daily or weekly chores also teach children skills they’ll use throughout their lives, such as setting priorities. The earlier kids learn to incorporate domestic duties into their everyday routine, the more likely they are to continue helping out when they hit their teen years.Andréa Oldereide is a writer at Bored Panda.
