  1. Omg never heard of this challenge. But I don't think tiktok is to blame. There are millions of users and video. How can tiktok possibly comb through millions of posts per day. I'm sorry it may sound harsh but the only person responsible is the kid. It's a dumb challenge and maybe should shouldn't let her kid be on tiktok. People always want someone to blame. Be in gun manufacturers, car manufacturers, fast food places. I mean come on.

  2. Maybe before we give our kids access to mind sucjng technology we should quiz them thoroughly about basic biology, bodily functions and science. Bc at 9 ur child should know that lack of oxygen to the brain can cause irreversible damage, at 9 ur kid should know not to swallow magnets, not to play with fire, not to stick things in outlets, not to mix chemicals.... I mean just so many common sense things and if they don't know it's because u failed to teach them. Everyone is so quick to hand them tablets and phones and these kids can think worth a damn. I quiz my nieces and nephew on scenarios, like carbon monoxide, what to do in case of fire, what to do if they see their friend doing dumb tiktok challenges. You can never be too careful. Like my mom used to ask us ....if all your friends jump off a cliff are u gonna jump too? We just don't teach our kids common sense
