Child Copies Father and Beats The Mother
In a shocking video of domestic violence, a child is seen coping his father who was badly trashing her even without a reason.
Domestic violence is rampant in India with thousands of women suffering in silence, either for the fear of being shamed or for the sake of their children. In the video shared on Instagram by social media influencer Jitendra Sharma AKA 'Ted The Stoner' on Sunday,2nd October 2022 a woman is seen lighting musical candles on her young son's birthday. As she sings the Happy birthday song, a man, apparently her husband jumps in, slapping the woman hard on her face. Shocked, the woman asks what had happened. The man hit her because she apparently lit the birthday candles before he could join them in the video.He then goes on to cut the cake with his son as if nothing had happened. Amid this, the woman tries to calmly explain why she lit the candles. The man again loses his temper and slaps the woman so hard that she falls off to the side.
Ironically, the young child watching his father also starts to hit his mother. The man then walks around, smashes his shoe on the cake, and hits the woman again, punching and slapping her hard in the face and in her stomach. The woman pleads in front of him asking him what she had done. She then blows off the candles shaking in fear. Jitendra Sharma, who shared the video on Instagram, asked his followers to share it so that it "reaches the right people who might be able to help". Sharma identified the victim woman as Aisha and the abusive man in the video as Mohammad Mushtaq GK and said "he worked for some IT company in Bangalore". Sharma said, "Domestic violence is way too common in India with a lot of victims not even coming out in the open fearing victim shaming or the loss of family reputation, which is ironic, but I have seen too many such cases and you can never really understand what the victim is going through unless you listen to their story.”
However, as it turns out, it is a 6-year-old video from Bengaluru. According to reports, the couple is divorced now. The child’s mother won his custody last year and the same case was in the news as the child’s father was asked to pay a fine of Rs 50,000 for wasting the court’s time by making frivolous demands. The video is very very saddening. Men must respect women and not use violence. It is also important to behave properly when children are around. As children can easily copy adults. Violence, using abusive words, behaviour are all copied by children.
