In the latest example of egg-gregious parenting, some parents are cracking eggs on their toddlers’ heads and filming their upset reactions as part of a new TikTok trend.
While some kids gamely laughed off the prank, others were driven to tears or distressed yelling, sparking backlash from viewers and parenting experts, reported Insider. Concerned TikTok users are now proposing a new trend: cracking eggs on one’s own head – a suggestion that spares the children but raises the troubling question of TikTok’s attachment to egg-cracking.The trend first appeared on the short-form video platform a few months ago, pioneered by women filming themselves cracking eggs on their distracted husbands’ or partners’ heads to jolt them out of their manly reveries.
The clips were accompanied by captions that gently poked fun at the men, like “When he thinks he’s useless in the kitchen”. Often, the victims reacted with shock, brief irritation or laughter. The format quickly gained popularity, with more and more creators hopping on under the hashtag #eggcrackchallenge, which has since received 64 million views. Though some videos looked staged, comments remained positive as viewers enjoyed watching men get pranked, reported Insider.
