The recent viral video of a new mom calling out her mother-in-law for feeding her two-week-old baby pineapple has sparked a heated debate online. While the mother expressed genuine concern for her baby’s well-being, many Nigerians feel that airing such family matters on social media is inappropriate.
Feeding a newborn anything other than breast milk or formula can be risky, as their digestive systems are still developing and may not be able to handle solid foods like pineapple. The mother’s instinct to protect her child is commendable, but the decision to publicly shame her mother-in-law has raised eyebrows.
