Sickening moment ‘baby is KICKED by its mum because tot would not stop crying’The horrific abuse was filmed by a by-stander – who apparently preferred to film the incident rather than intervene.The six-second video seems to show the mum kicking the infant in the side, while the unknown witness films from the sidelines.The clip was first published on China’s popular short-video sharing platform Flash Show – known in Mandarin as “Miaopai”.It shows the child bawling loudly while lying on some steps.The woman, in an as of yet unidentified Chinese city, was said to have been fed up by her young child’s continuous crying.Apparently she threw it to the ground after she ran out of patience.The mum can also be heard shouting: “Stop crying!”The shocking footage of the purported child abuse has since gained millions of views on China’s Twitter-like microblogging site Sina Weibo, with calls for authorities to intervene.While the exact location of the incident unknown, it is said the woman may also be the child’s stepmother.But it is unclear whether the authorities are investigating the video.
