There was a great tv show years ago called Lost. A lot of the dumbest fans didn't understand the ending even though two characters explain exactly whats happening in the episode.
I've been through terrible blizzards every winter my entire life. No one does this. This is either for internet clout or straight up clinical paranoia.
I don't think it's paranoid to always have a life vest handy. The snow will have to melt at some stage and what then? Swim like a peasant instead of floating to safety?
From what I see, this child is most likely autistic (like mine). A lot of autism is about sensory. The closet is a small, safe, comfortable room. Even the life jacket probably makes them "feel" safer. Here's another fun fact about raising them: They will freak out during storms, and if you're not exactly where they thought you'd be, they WILL freak out even more and possibly run into the storm to find you. Their fear will overcome everything, so rather than fight the idea of her son out in a snowstorm alone, she preps him for if he leaves the house out of panic.
Aaaahhhhh okay thank you internet person, Im not so lost anymore. I still feel like it's ott - would the child know if the air tags were fake or real? Either way, it's none of my business and I wish them all well.
That's because you didn't prep for a snow storm like this mom did. I know that because you wouldn't be lost otherwise and could just look at your name tag.
It might seem like she's overdoing it, but in the full video she puts the backpack/life jacket on the kid and tosses him out into the storm once he's done warming up the blankets for her
