Toddler Orders Mother Out of Father’s House Over Late Meal
NIGERIA – A toddler in Lagos sparked outrage online yesterday after ordering her mother to leave her father’s house due to a delayed meal, in a shocking video that has raised concerns over the child’s behaviour and parental influence.
The 30-second clip, shared on TikTok, captures the toddler’s dramatic outburst as she demands her mother leave the house, claiming it belongs to her father.
The mother, who recorded the entire incident, can be seen smiling at her child’s tantrum.
The child can be heard saying, “Leave this house, leave this house now. This is my daddy’s house before I count to…”
The mother’s decision to record the incident, rather than intervening, has sparked debate among social media users.
Social media users reacted to the video, with some finding it amusing while others expressed concern over the child’s behaviour.
Reactions of social media users:
@Realities_of_life: “You should discipline your child, not laugh and record a video. What lessons should other children learn from this?”
@chibuzor_jelly: “Her father must have been saying this to you as the mother.”
@Daddys_girl: “I used to say this to my mom when I was younger. My brother would even threaten to call a snake to bite my mom whenever she disciplined us.”
@charles983: “Even if I was born last night, I know she learned those words from her dad.”
@Beecee: “This reminds me of my brother when he was around this age. He would always tell our cousin, Is this your father’s house? Go to your father’s house because of the VCD player!”
