You hardly appear to be able to move in public these days without running the risk of doing it online.
The age of viral stories and videos has arrived, which means that in a matter of seconds, embarrassing, funny, and occasionally even private recordings and photographs of us could be uploaded to the internet and spread quickly.
Even though this can surely be used improperly, there are times when it can be advantageous, such as when someone is called out for acting improperly.
I can only assume that’s what internet people believed was happening when an Instagram picture that appeared to show a message sent by a parent who had left her baby in the car while rushing inside Target to do some shopping went popular in early March.
Is that enough to stop the heart? Don’t worry, there’s more to this story than what first appears.
In March, Instagram user Bonnie Engle shared a movie that immediately gained popularity. Since it was posted, the video has gotten millions of views and more than a thousand comments.
A close-up of a handwritten message with the words “My baby is OK.” is shown in the challenged footage. He is currently eating and drinking. I am at Target. I’ll be back shortly.
It goes without saying that a large majority of those who watched the video were startled by the note alone.
Many viewers who gave the film a chance soon came to the conclusion that Engle is more of a wicked partner than a bad mother. A few seconds after the close-up of the message in the window was shown, the camera pans back to show that Engle’s baby in the car is actually her husband.
The influencer posted the Instagram footage with the message, “Please no judgment.” He is safe and sound.
Her husband is spotted waiting inside the car while eating popcorn.
Fortunately, people who commented on Bonnie’s video thought it was funny.
One person remarked, “My heart broke and I LMAO.
“Leaving kids in the car is so much easier,” another person said.
I briefly thought of getting really upset. I didn’t expect it,” a third remarked.
Engels reportedly produces a lot of funny writing that will appeal to mothers who can relate to the demands of parenting on a daily basis.

Although the fun in this film was definitely intended, it’s always important to remember the risks associated with leaving children (or pets, for that matter) in warm cars.
Please share this post if you liked Bonnie’s video and wish to aid in spreading an important message.
