Aight bro why was the kid still screming and standing in one leg but not going inside😅😂

[karlbackhouse]

She was about to throw the racoon but stopped when she noticed other kids on the street and made sure they were safe beforehand. Not just a good mum.. just a good person.

[arthIsGhetto]

The way she held on until the neighbors kid made it inside. Respect.

I bet when South Park comes on she will be traumatised by Cartman’s superhero persona

Bro you don't have to hurt the raccoon it was just looking for food

[Princess]

I can’t even imagine what Mama was thinking hearing her kid scream like that. That’s not a fake cry that’s a parent’s nightmare cry.

Raccoon community said they are sorry about Larry he escaped prison but we got him back in custody

[tarou]

The truth is I didn't like what the mother did, she just put it in another way not to throw it away.

When you hear your kid screaming I swear every parent becomes scared of nothing
