Several social media users demanded that the woman should face legal action including getting jailed for child abuse. Others also accused the woman of generating clicks and views at the cost of the child's mental and physical health.
One X user wrote, "The fact a video like that would go viral and make someone money is one of the many things wrong with TikTok. But on there it seems like anything goes regardless if it is blatant physical abuse."
Another added, "These people are sick! they belong in prison."
According to several sources, authorities are reportedly investigating the matter in question but by the time of reporting, no legal action has been taken against the woman yet.
