rumours 45,521 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 On November 28th, Mariah posted the following video to Twitter: While harmless on the surface, some have criticized the video due to her children not having seat belts on while the vehicle was in motion. Some have also called the video tone deaf, as she appears to be prioritizing self-glorification (via her song) over her children's safety. However, many fans came to her defense, praising the moment captured on video. What do you think of the backlash?... Is it warranted? Share your thoughts/opinions below.

calmar 22,064 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I mean, when I watched the vid just now I immediately noticed the lack of seat belts and felt uncomfortable, so I get why people would be criticizing it. 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlepotter 75,144 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 i've never worn a seatbelt as a child and she isn't wearing one either. it's not like she prioritized her safety over theirs, it just seems to not be a thing she usually does. which yeah isn't really great but it's dumb to call her a bad mom over this. chaeri pls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATCAT 60,044 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I understand people's concerns about the seat belts, but they are in the back of a big van. If they were in a car or a limo or something, it might be more necessary. But a big van? Even School buses don't have seat belts. I think it's blown out of proportion.

It's dumb to call her a bad mom over this, alone, but if she doesn't wear a seat belt ever (even when she's in the front and or driving) then it's be a bad call.

I can honestly understand where critics are coming from, though. She’s having them filmed while she’s having them learn the background vocals to her song... all the while she doesn’t appear concerned that her kids aren’t buckled in. While I think it’s been blown out of proportion, it isn’t necessarily a good look... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I don't mind people criticizing this, but some people, those I pointed finger at, chose to take it to the shallow area and blamed her for using her kids to promote her song and career.. they didn't really care about the kids honestly.. they just used them to add a bit of their toxic against a celebrity..

Bloody hooker 6,445 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 The video and moment is cute, but I do agree that they should have their seatbelts on including Mariah. This mutual gaze was a “longing to touch” or a "pre-coitus" stare. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioIsOurs 13,876 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 No offence but who still buckles up everytime in the backseat anymore? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshLife 16,983 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I think two things can both be true: that people are overreacting (especially when they make it about her "self-glorifying" or whatever), and that her kids should wear seat belts (and so should she).

Tranquility 343 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I mean, they aren't wrong about the seat belts but holy hell. Do people on Twitter just *** their pants when they lecture some person who is never going to see their self-righteous tweet threads? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
