Mom blasts son for consoling crying little sister, says the girl is enjoying 'White privilege'

The mother-of-two went viral after posting a TikTok accusing her daughter of enjoying 'White privilege' after her brother tried to make her feel better

A TikToker was widely slammed after she accused her own daughter, 5, of being racially conditioned because she was crying "White girl tears" and warned her 11-year-old son not to console his little sister.

The mother-of-two, whose identity is still unknown but who appears to go by the handle @belikejess, went viral on social media after posting a TikTok accusing her five-year-old daughter of having "violence in her heart" and enjoying "White privilege" after her brother tried to make her feel better when she cried. While most would agree that's what any good brother would do, their mother felt it was only a symptom of the patriarchy.

The controversial TikTok video was shared on Twitter by an account named 'Libs of TikTok' with the caption, "The worst part is that this isn’t parody."

"So this morning the baby woke up and had some sort of violence in her heart," the woman began in the clip, referring to her daughter. "I don't know what it was but she has been losing her mind all day."

"It's interesting because I'm watching her lose her mind and then I'm watching the preteen respond to that by trying to make her happy," she continued. "And I have had to actively tell him to stop trying to make her feel better and stop responding to her tears. It's so interesting to see the conditioning of responding to "White girl tears" so early. She's 5 and she's got an 11-year-old coming after her and trying to make her feel better when she cries."

"We have to unlearn this whole business that White women crying is going to get them what they want in life, because that ain't it," she added.

Social media lashed out at the woman's racially charged rant against her own children, with some calling for child protective services to rescue the kids from her. "My son was crying today so I chalked it up to negative energy stewing from the Nixon years," Chef Andrew Gruel quipped.

"Violence in her heart” This is how we characterize babies crying now? We have become a society full of over-dramatic people. I was born in the wrong century," one Twitter user added.

"The 11-year-old is showing traits of a real man, who moves in to help and comfort when someone’s hurting. He’s the hero here. Poor kids," another wrote.

"I'm not usually a fan of child protective services, but in this instance, they need to come in to save that five-year-old white female child. What her mother is doing is child abuse," a third alleged.

"Gee, I cut off my son's hand and blew up my daughter's planet, and somehow I still seem like a more compassionate parent," an account posing as Star Wars' Darth Vader joked.

"I think referring to your 5-year-old as a baby is part of the issue. Kids at that age are just learning how to deal with the many emotions they have. The 11-year-old is awesome. The mom sucks at parenting. Read a book, listen to a podcast about it. Learn something," a comment read.

"I hope this is a parody because the alternative has upended me. The loathing a person can have for their own flesh and blood is shocking. A child is not a project," another user chimed in.
