Parenting is a difficult job.

Parenting is a difficult and demanding responsibility that necessitates patience, dedication, and resilience. It entails guiding and nurturing children as they grow, teaching them values and life skills along the way. It is a lifelong commitment that requires constant learning and adaptation to meet the unique needs of each child. Parenting also entails setting boundaries and creating a safe and supportive environment for children to grow and thrive in.

It’s no surprise that it also includes sleepless nights, tantrums, and endless messes. That is why parents are always looking for tips and tricks to make their lives a little easier. These simple tips can help parents navigate the ups and downs of raising children. While not everyone can benefit from these ‘lifehacks’, I’m sure some people do. And TikTok is a platform where thousands of parents share advice that may or may not be recommended. Lisa Flom, the creator, is no exception.

The ‘parenting hack’ starts with using velcro tape that you can buy easily.

You stick one side to the seat and the other to your children’s clothes.

This creates a surface where you can make sure your child sticks and isn’t able to move much.

However, this does give them quite a lot of range of movement, so they don’t feel too strapped in.

People in the comments had varying opinions on this.

Many were completely against it.

Others were sad that they didn’t know about this when they were flying.

People certainly have a lot of varying opinions on this.

I have to say that it is quite a unique idea.

I don’t think he’s done anything wrong either.

More freedom of movement equals more danger, though.

This little trick will work for some.

This is a very true fact as well.

At first, I agreed with the little Velcro trick. However, I’m not sure if the trick will work for everyone. I am sure the child could unstick themselves if they tried hard enough, which means they could be hurt if you are completely relaxed because you believe the child is safe and sound. However, if you don’t have a car seat and it’s an emergency, it will undoubtedly work in a hurry. Aside from that, I don’t recommend it. The child’s safety should always come first, so consider all potential risks before attempting this Velcro trick. It may be best to stick to traditional car seat safety measures to ensure the child is always properly secured.

Lisa likes to use Velcro in other ways as well.

This time she uses it at home on the couch.

This way, her child won’t fall or get hurt.

Although she isn’t all about velcro either, zip-ties are another tool in her bag as well.

Although I am not sure how secure this would be.

His husband also joins in sometimes.

This time, he showcases a way to keep the child calm when the mom isn’t there.
