TikTok user Naomi Neo is back in the limelight again after yet another prank on her toddler son, this time making him cry after lying to him that she forgot to buy his air tickets for their family vacation, according to MS News.
In her video posted on 9 September, Neo set her son down and “explains” to him that she had forgotten to book his air ticket for their holiday to Australia.
The previously-smiling boy then started looking nervous as he started protesting that he wanted to go with them to Australia.
Neo then told him that there were no more seats on the plane, to which the boy then suggested that he could sit on her lap, or she could throw away her ticket and stay home with him.
She then told him that he can’t do that, and he starts crying, telling his mother that he will miss her.
Neo then tells him to stay in Singapore and the toddler then begins shaking his head and crying loudly, visibly heartbroken.
The boy then tells his mother “I want to stay with mummy, if you go Australia who take care of me? How can you forget about me?”
The boy then laid down inside her luggage, appearing to try to sneak himself onto the upcoming flight.

Previously scared toddler son with ghost prank
A video emerged online showing Naomi Neo and her husband pranking their son with a “ghost” filter on TikTok, drawing intense backlash from netizens who questioned her parenting.
According to AsiaOne, the viral trend currently making waves on TikTok has parents pretending to do TikTok videos with their children, before escaping from the room and locking their kids inside as the “ghost” appears in the filter, along with eerie music and laughter.
She was seen with her son Kyzo inside a room, staring at the camera, as Neo and her husband slowly backed away out of the room and shutting the door.
The toddler then sees the “ghost” in the video and he then started screaming and ran to the door, trying frantically to open the door but couldn’t.
The boy then started crying.
