A strict Chinese mother recently went viral on social media for making her daughter take breathalyzer tests when she returns home at night to ensure she is not drinking alcohol.
The widely shared video, which was posted on Weibo last week, shows the mother waiting near the front door of their home in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, as her 22-year-old daughter, identified by her surname Jin, walks in.
āMy strict upbringing does not allow me to come home after 10 p.m., or even grabbing [sic] a drink before getting married,ā Jin explains.
The daughter also shares that she is afraid of how her strict mother will react if she ever fails her breathalyzer test. She adds that she has passed every test so far.Ā
The viral video ignited discussion among Weibo users, with one user saying that Jinās situation is so āoppressive.ā Other users, however, showed support for the motherās strict parenting.
āI support the mum. I understood it is tough, but I wished my parents would do that to me,ā one user wrote.
āWhat the mum is doing is showing responsibility towards her daughter. ⦠I thought itās great,ā another said.
