Sold flowers near the church: son did not eat for three days until his mother bought him an iPhone (2 photos + 1 video)

The teenager's attitude towards his mother has drawn a lot of criticism online. Netizens are accusing him of blackmail.





A teenager from India has gone on a hunger strike to blackmail his mother into buying him an iPhone. The bizarre incident was captured on video by the owner of a smartphone store last week. Journalist Abhishek also posted the footage, which has garnered over a million views, on his X (former Twitter) page.

The boy admitted that he had not eaten for three days to force his mother to buy him a new phone. The expression on the face of the woman who came with her son to make a purchase speaks for itself.



"I sell flowers near the temple, and I gave him money for a phone because he hadn't eaten anything for three days. I want him to earn money and return the money," she says.

The teenager's attitude towards his mother has caused a lot of criticism on the Internet. Thus, users accuse him of financial and emotional blackmail, as well as indifference to his loved one. Knowing that his mother makes a living selling flowers, he still insisted that she buy him a smartphone, although the woman could not afford this purchase.
