Mom who took toddler on plane with high fever faces fresh backlash over ‘inappropriate’ clothing decision
A controversial content creator has viewers up in arms again after she revealed that she was taking her toddler out on a two-hour walk in the freezing cold.
Mom Alina was previously slammed for bringing her one-year-old son on a plane with a high fever.
She is now facing fresh backlash after she posted a video to TikTok explaining how she had prepared the youngster to venture out in the -18.4 degree F weather.
Alina, who lives in Kazakhstan, posted a montage of clips that showed her getting her son dressed, as she explained that they ‘try to walk every day regardless of the weather.’
But the video was met with immense criticism, as many of her viewers felt that she hadn’t dressed him in proper clothes that would keep him protected from the severe elements.
‘Since it’s quite chilly today, I’m putting one wool jumpsuit on him and a fleece jumpsuit on top,’ Alina explained in the clip.
She added that she usually puts ‘two pairs of socks’ on him but ‘forgot this time.’
The mom said that she had a special winter jacket for her son to wear when the ‘severe frosts’ come, but because it hadn’t dropped below -22 degrees F yet, she hadn’t pulled it out.

Instead, she dressed him in a gray coat, and completed his ensemble with boots ‘lined with sheepskin’ and a hat.
‘We try to walk every day regardless of the weather because we live in a cold country,’ she stated.
But Alina’s video was filled with comments from concerned viewers, who questioned why she was taking her young child out in the freezing cold and if his clothes would keep him warm enough.
‘-28 [degrees Celsius] and no winter overall? No wool socks? Just a tiny mittens on the hand?’ one horrified user asked.
‘At finland if it is -28 [degrees Celsius] I put my kids thicker wool suit, wool socks, winter overall, thin backlava, and on top of that 100 percent wool.’
‘That poor child,’ agreed another.
‘Why torture him like that? Keep him home in the warm,’ raged someone else.
‘Is that even safe as far as frostbite goes?’ read a fourth comment.

Other users congratulated the mom for still taking her child out for fresh air, even in the freezing cold.
‘Great Job mommy… when he has to wear those clothes, no matter how long it takes, how much he fuss… make sure he wears it for his own good. But explain to him when you are outside, so he understands,’ another viewer advised.
Earlier in the year, Alina had viewers fuming after she posted a video that showed her and her husband flying with their sick child to Thailand.
In the clip, she said her son had developed a 104 degree F fever before the trip, but that they didn’t want to cancel the flight because they would have lost thousands of dollars.
‘My husband and I wanted to cancel the flight and our tickets would have been wasted and the … $3,000 would have been wasted,’ Alina wrote on the video.
She added that they had managed to bring the baby’s temperature down before the flight, but admitted that they were ‘worried’ about how their child would feel during the eight-hour flight.
‘One plus of this flight was that the flight was at night and the child could sleep and recover,’ she added.
Despite the mom-of-one’s best laid plans, it did not go smoothly – as the sick toddler woke up and cried pretty much the entire flight.
‘We had to bring down the temperature again in the night… we were very worried,’ she admitted.
Commenters slammed the parents for their choice, claiming it put their child in danger, as well as everyone else on the flight.
