A little girl from Joshua Tree, California, left viewers on the internet with stitches when her playtime with her favorite toy didn’t end well.
The video, posted by her mother Hannah Williams, shows her 1-year-old daughter rocking and burping like a good mother, which prompts Williams to start recording her. He says that was the reason he wanted to do it. However, things quickly turned sour.
“I think she was done playing, because she immediately threw the baby in the toy kitchen oven, slammed the door, applauded herself, and ran off,” Williams told Newsweek. told.

“Every time I feel like a bad mother, I think of my daughter’s parenting style,” Williams humorously wrote on the text overlay.
It is normal for young children to play roughly with baby dolls, and is often a reflection of their developmental stage rather than intentionality.
For example, young children’s motor skills are still developing, so their movements may seem rough if they’re just practicing coordination and control. Lacking complete dexterity, they may accidentally handle toys in a way that appears careless.
Play is also a safe outlet for children to explore emotions such as anger, frustration, and excitement. They may play wildly with dolls as a way to express feelings and scenarios that they don’t yet have words for.
Luckily, Williams told Newsweek the whole family couldn’t stop laughing at the funny side of her daughter’s antics.
“She (Williams’ daughter) likes to hide in the big kitchen cabinets, so I guess she thought the oven was a good place for a baby to hide. I love how happy she is with herself. “I watch videos whenever I need a little euphoria,” she said.
The video quickly went viral, racking up more than 14.5 million views. Comments have been turned off by the author, but Williams said many parents can relate to this scenario.
“I posted the video because I thought it was just a fun and cute silly thing and it went viral right away. I think a lot of other parents can relate too. And I’ve gotten messages from parents thanking me for making them laugh. I received several.
“Parenting can be difficult and exhausting, so comic relief is always a welcome surprise,” Williams said.
