Woman leaves internet horrified and slammed a ‘bad mum’ after letting her toddler play with his dead grandparents | The Sun
A WOMAN has been slammed as a bad mum for letting her toddler play with his dead grandparents.
The US-based mum took to social media to share how her son was using her mum's urn as a rattle and teether.
In the clip, her young son took the gold urn and began using it as a teether before beginning to use it as a rattle.
The mum said she thought it was peculiar he had picked out the urn which was in a cupboard with lots of other items.
She wrote: "Don't worry, the top is sealed and it doesn't have any remnants.
"I thought this was hilarious but also interesting. She was in a cabinet full of other fun looking GLASS things and he chose her urn out of all the cool looking things."
