It’s that time of year again when parents the world over start moving a stupid-looking elf around the house in order to scare their kids into behaving themselves in the run-up to Christmas.
That’s the new “tradition” anyway. But some parents are more creative than that.
This mother films her kids’ reactions when their Elf On A Shelf goes bad. Well, not by itself, of course, but by way of her painting its eyes red and getting it to do evil deeds.
I’m not sure this is particularly good parenting, but then nor is the whole Elf On A Shelf idea in the first place. It’s just blackmailing kids into not being naughty. Which is a terrible idea.
