Onlookers bewildered as toddler tasked with taking mum's new profile picture

A woman has proved people will go to any lengths for the 'gram after a toddler was filmed snapping stylised pictures of her from his pram.

In the video, shared with meme account Brown Cardigan, the boy – presumed to be the woman's son – can be seen standing up in his pram while his mother poses in front of a painted wall on the other side of the street.

A woman can be heard saying, "That's the saddest thing I've ever seen", while Brown Cardigan said people like the woman "need to care less about their personal brands and log [the f—k] off".

The video was met with a mix of ire and amusement by Brown Cardigan's followers, with some saying the woman was a product of modern society's obsession with social media. Others defended the woman, saying their kids also liked to snap photos on their phones.
