The viral video raises urgent questions about the kind of societal influence leading to such behavior in someone so young.
The influencer recounted how bystanders intervened, some urging her to “let him off” due to his age, insisting that his actions must have been unintentional. However, a few supported her choice to address the issue, pointing to the need for accountability regardless of age.
The online response has largely missed the mark, with arguments erupting over state origin (the incident occurred in Bengaluru) and influencer credibility instead of addressing the concerning behavior exhibited by such a young child. This incident raises important reflections on the awareness and values society must instill from a young age to prevent harassment and promote respect for boundaries.
