A DAD has come up with a ‘genius’ way of getting his kids to behave around Christmas.
TikTok dad Benny shared a video of a roaring log fire, with festive wrapped presents lying next to it.
He explained: “Christmas is coming, and here is a sure fire way to ensure your little darlings behaving proper.”
The video caption read: “With Christmas approaching, here is a top tip for parents.
“Wrap up some empty boxes and pretend they have presents.
“Then each time one of those little f****** misbehaves, chuck one on to the fire.”
The cheeky tip has gone viral, but maybe parents were torn as to whether the hack was too mean.
One said: “How to cause trauma to children.”
Another added: “If you need to do this to get your kids to behave, then the issue is not with the kids.
A third wrote: “Ah yes, let’s start the childhood trauma early and make them hate Christmas.”
However, many people praised it for being a game changer, with one commenting: “This is hilarious.”
A second said: “My dad did this, we started to behave after this.”
