Mother claims irresponsible parenting at a playground in the Gurgaon society.

A video has recently gone viral on the internet, where a mother shares her experience of a dispute with another parent at a playground in a Gurgaon society. She claimed there was insufficient supervision on the playground after a dispute with another parent. She criticised in the video “entitled” parents, after a playground incident where her son was nearly pushed off a high slide by another child. The mother said that though she apologised for raising her voice in a moment of panic, the other parent criticised her tone rather than acknowledging the safety risk. The woman claimed that despite her apologising multiple times, the other refused to acknowledge the safety risk. She condemned this “entitled” attitude, arguing that parents must prioritise basic supervision to ensure the safety of all children in shared spaces.

More on the mother’s claim of “entitled” parents.

The woman in the video can be heard saying, “My flabbers have been ghasted by this damn lady today. So bl**dy pissed off! Hadhhai! This sure is a very long rant but it is what is it,” shared Nidhi J G, who goes by “auntyfunnyhai” on Instagram. The video opens with a text insert that reads, “Gurgaon ke entitled parents.” In the video, she said, “Gurgaon kids are very entitled, that’s what everyone says, right? Where do they learn this entitlement from? Their parents.” She went on to explain an incident involving her kid at the playground. She revealed how her son was playing at the society park where he was nearly pushed off a high slide by another kid. Reacting out of “maternal instinct,” she raised her voice to stop the child from causing a potentially grave injury. When she acknowledged her tone could have been softer, she clarified that her frustration was directed at the toddler’s parents for their lack of supervision, rather than at the young child. Recounting what happened next, she said, “So this happened, and I safely got my child out of there, and we stood to the side. And then, that child’s mother comes to me and says, ‘Don’t you think you should have spoken softly? She’s also a child!’” She continued, “And I was like, ‘Yes, the way I spoke was not appropriate, but I was very scared, and my emotions took control of me. But I am sorry.’” She added that even after her apologising, the other parents kept shaming her.

Netizens react to the viral video.

One user reacted, “I simply yell at my own child at the top of my voice, making sure that everyone around is listening. I just say ‘I have told you na not to play around such kids. Go and play somewhere else. He/she will hurt you.’” Another expressed, “This exact scenario is the same everywhere, at least in high-rise apartments.” A third person wrote, “Some so-called educated parents never correct their kids. I’ve seen it—kids who speak English but lack basic manners, even pushing others at such a young age. If my child can behave well, why can’t yours? Teaching manners is more important than just teaching language.”
