"The mom who made the video clarifies in the comments that her child is 3 years old, and the youngest of the neighbor's three children is 4. Honestly, the comments are pretty divided, with some parents firmly taking this mom's side and others telling her to loosen up."
""I don't mind my son playing with neighbor kids; everyone he sees, he calls them a friend. But I don't like it when I'm being taken advantage of because I'm actually sitting out here engaging and present with my children," she says. "I'm not being babysitter; I'm not watching your kids. You need to come out here and be a parent," she concludes."
Neighbors' children occasionally join others to play while their parents remain inside. A Texas mother recorded herself sitting in front of her house after a neighbor opened the door, let her child out to play on the front lawn, said nothing, and returned inside. The mother said she engages with her own children and refuses to act as an unpaid babysitter for other families. She emphasized that parents need to come outside and supervise their children. She clarified that her son is three and the neighbor's youngest is four. Online reactions were split between those demanding parental accountability and those urging a more relaxed approach.
