TikTok is all about new trends, where teens are observed enjoying in them the most. These new trends range from the “Angel of Death Challenge” to the “Viral Hanger Challenge.” On the other hand, the most recent TikTok craze that has been brought to light is the “put your shoes on” trend, which involves parents playing practical jokes on their young children.
In order to complete this task, parents must explain to their children that they are about to engage in a conflict with a neighbor and that they require some aid. Some parents are going too far when they tell their children that their neighbors are also bringing their children to the fight with them. This is a line that should never be crossed.
This usually causes the children to go and fetch their shoes, which is how the fad got its name: the “put your shoes on” challenge.
However, after the child comes to the door, expecting to see someone to fight with, they discover that there is no one there, and they understand that their parents have been playing a joke on them.
The “Put your shoes on” challenge has taken over TikTok, and internet users can’t seem to get enough of discussing it.
The challenge causes onlookers to laugh because they witness how naively the child trusts their parents and how quickly the child hurries to put on shoes in order to safeguard their parents’ honor. People have uploaded more than 59 million videos to TikTok, which has inspired them to come up with a wide variety of hoaxes to play on their children.
Some children are eager to support their parents in response to the trend, while others can’t believe they are in this position in the first place.
However, not everyone views the challenge in the same way, and as a result, it is receiving a lot of pushback and criticism from users of TikTok as well as Twitter.
One person on Twitter stated that they were “struggling to find this (the trend) hilarious” since they have been in situations when they had to mediate conflicts between teenagers and even their own parents.
@KevOnStage Because I’ve been the one who’s had to break up fights between teens and call the police when parents come to fight their children at school, I’m having a hard time finding the humor in this situation.
People are also discussing about how the challenge has the ability to influence a child’s thinking by leading them to believe that it is acceptable to engage in physical violence. This is another topic that is being discussed. A user on Twitter stated that patterns such as these give the impression to children that violence is a “acceptable approach to deal with disputes.”
Children are given the impression that resorting to physical violence is an acceptable approach to resolve conflicts as a result of this practice.
TikTok has a history of producing trends that are unsettling and frightening.
The app for sharing short videos is quite well-known for the new trends that it ushers in, but some of these trends are frequently unsettling in addition to being potentially hazardous. The “Angel of Death” challenge is one of these, and it became extremely popular around a month ago.
As part of the challenge, teenagers would leap in front of moving cars and trucks, which ultimately resulted in the deaths of a few young people. The majority of the cases that were recorded came from Indonesia and other regions of Asia, which is also where the problem was first discovered.
The Benadryl challenge is one of the more concerning and concerning trends that has emerged recently. In this challenge, adolescents ingest excessive quantities of the cough medication. Additionally, this has been the cause of death for a number of adolescents in recent years.
As a result, when taking part in activities of this nature, it is the responsibility of the parents to instill in their children an awareness of the difference between appropriate and inappropriate behavior. If a youngster sees that their parents are participating in a trend, then the child is less likely to fall victim to risky and potentially life-threatening challenges or trends.
