A mother did not hesitate to take pocket money from her 9 and 10 year old children after they ate too much food… A reaction that does not pass for internet users.

In addition to having taken their money, the children no longer have the right to sweets and cakes, at the end of the meals they eat fruit and that’s it! But the mother begins to blame herself for having taken the money they received at Christmas, she therefore asked the opinion of Internet users. With over 200 comments one thing is certain, most people didn’t agree with mom’s sanctions…
