A little girl’s response after hitting her brother over a cookie melted the hearts of millions on the internet.
The YouTube video starts with a young girl standing in the corner. She had hit her brother after they fought over a cookie. Her father comes over to talk with her.
“Did you hit brother?” her father asks her.
“Yep,” the child answers matter-of-factly.
Her honesty stands out. No excuses. No blame. Just truth.
“Was that mean?” Dad asks.
“Yep,” she answers without delay.
The father handles this moment with wisdom. He stays calm. He lets his daughter think about her actions.
After their talk, he tells her to go apologize to her brother. What happens next touches your heart.
The little girl runs straight to her brother with her arms wide open. She wraps him in the biggest, warmest hug you can imagine.
You can see the bond between these children. A cookie could never break what they have together. Their connection runs deeper than any disagreement.
The video spread across the internet fast. Over 16 million people watched it on YouTube alone. Comments poured in from viewers around the world.
One person said, “She is an honest baby girl. So sweet.” Another one said, “Dad disciplining kids n showing involvement in parenting….is a real win for life.”
Children teach us about forgiveness every day. They fight hard and love harder. They get angry and then hug it out. We can learn from their simple hearts how to forgive and love others.
