On December 28th in Shijiazhuang, Hebei, a mother’s hilarious and ingenious way of handling her toddler’s tantrum captured hearts online. When her baby threw herself on the ground crying for a balloon and refused to move, the mom didn’t resort to scolding or forcing her to get up. Instead, she did something unexpected—she joined her.

With calm precision, she pulled out a mat and pillow from the stroller, laid them on the ground, and comfortably reclined, crossing her legs and playing on her phone.

According to Ms. Wang, the mother, her one-year-old daughter often demands items while shopping and refuses to leave without them. Previously, her husband tended to indulge their daughter, but Ms. Wang wanted to address this habit. By mirroring her child’s behavior, she hoped to teach a lesson without conflict.

The approach worked like magic. Embarrassed by her mom’s antics, the toddler quickly got up and agreed to leave without the balloon.

This lighthearted yet effective parenting moment has resonated with many, showing that a little humour and creativity can turn a tense situation into a teaching opportunity.

12月28日，河北石家庄，一位宝宝因为想要气球而趴在地上哭闹不走，妈妈见状，没有像传统父母那样强拉硬拽或严厉训斥，而是采取了一个既机智又有趣的应对方式——她直接躺在了地上。

她从容地从婴儿车上拿出了垫子和枕头，铺在了地上，然后自己也躺了下去。一边翘起二郎腿，一边开始悠闲地玩了起来。

据妈妈王女士介绍，女儿一岁多，每次逛街看到想要的东西，不买就不走，怎么劝都不行。以往爸爸比较惯着她，这次她想矫正下女儿的坏习惯。看到女儿趴地上耍赖不走后，她便采取了同样的方式也躺在地上不走。没想到这一招很管用，女儿可能也觉得有些丢人了，便从地上爬了起来，答应不要气球了。
