Little girl leaves home after being scolded
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a little girl had packed her bags and left home after being scolded by her mother.
In the short video shared on Instagram, the kid looked visibly annoyed and struggled to gather her lunch box as well as another bag in readiness for her exit.
Her mum could be seen hilariously appealing to the kid to change her mind, a plea that seemed to fall on deaf ears. Like an adult, the kid stormed out of the house with her bags, stealing glances back at her mum.
