|
Version 0 of 1. A man who encouraged his toddler to smoke and drink beer is being hunted by police after a video was shared online. The footage was shared on Facebook by Daniel Tecu in Romania, who asked people to identify the two adults in the video. The video shows a man, thought to be Romanian, sitting with the boy on his lap and encouraging him to smoke. The man, presumably the boy's father, puts a cigarette in the child's mouth and then lets him drink beer, before offering him another puff of the cigarette. The toddler then continues drinking and smoking. One of them tells the boy: "That's what being a real man is all about," the Daily Mirror reports. Later in the video, the boy goes to put a cigarette in the man's mouth, who takes it from him and puts it in the toddler's mouth instead. The other man then lights the cigarette while laughing. "This man has to lose his parental rights. Childcare officials should do something," said Doina Dicu on Facebook. Another Facebook user, Mihaela Stanciu, wrote: "There should be an exam for everyone who wants to have a child. If you fail, you can't have them." The men in the video have not yet been identified, it is believed the incident took place in Spain. |
