A new viral challenge on TikTok is all the rage, as curious as it is questionable. It is found under the hashtags #fightprank and #putyourshoesonchalllengey and consists of the following: parents ask their children to put on their shoes and help them fight false fights and record their reactions desperate or not.
In many of the videos, the children unhesitatingly agree to go out into the street to fight with fists, for example, with the neighbor or the neighbor’s small son while the father or mother duels with the adult.
Other little ones, on the other hand, get scared and don’t want to know anything. There are also those who disagree with the decision of the mother or father, but still put on their shoes and leave the room for commitment.
There are also variants of the challenge: one of the most viewed videos shows an adult inviting his “Italian mother” to fight. The woman leaves everything she is doing and without hesitation she is ready to enter the contest.
Many of the challenges have hundreds of thousands of plays and all together accumulate millions of views on the social network.
The comments on this challenge show that the internet user is divided: there are those who consider the challenge a harmless and funny joke and those who think that it encourages violence and “traumatizes” minors.
“I personally hate the new challenge that parents are having with their children that ‘traumatize’ them for only a few likes!” Wrote one tweeter.

Another, in disagreement with the previous one, expressed: “Dear parents / aunts / uncles. Thank you for doing the #fightprank #putyourshoesonschallenge and sharing the videos with us. Your little ones are the cutest! “

A person who claims to be a psychoanalyst has created a huge thread in which he develops five points for which he believes is an offensive “challenge”. In his conclusion he states: “This experience has the potential to be harmful. Even if the parent turns around and claims it was a joke: they fashioned the lie, the joke and put the child in a potentially frightening situation. So they modeled pathogenic parenting. “
