When Mother realizes how she has been walking around outside, she is deeply ashamed
Atlanta (Georgia) - It was only when the American woman wanted to take a shower at home that she sank to the floor in shame: Jahlen Johnson (27) from Atlanta, Georgia, became a mother for the third time on November 3. A few days ago, she went for a walk with her baby and greeted several neighbors. Later, she took her three children to Waltmart. Then it happened.
"I handed the kids over to my husband and when I went to take my pants off, I realized I never wore them," Johnson confessed in an interview with Newsweek this week.
A juicy detail: since the birth of her third child, the 27-year-old has had to wear an adult diaper - the only "garment" she still had on during her tour.
"I ran to tell my husband, but he didn't believe me. So I pulled out the camera footage to prove to him that I had gone out like that, and then we were both so shocked," Johnson said.
The surveillance camera in her house had captured the faux pas well. Despite all the shame, the young mother ended up using the footage for a secondary use.
Viral TikTok video shows the faux pas
She talked her heart out in a TikTok video. She also fades in the surveillance camera footage. The response has been huge ever since.
1.3 million clicks and more than 180,000 likes have been collected within four days. The comment column is also well filled with thousands of comments.
The reason: many people can understand the problems of young parents, especially the extreme lack of sleep and the resulting mistakes.
"I've never felt so supported by so many strangers. Everyone gave me so much confidence and it was really nice, especially after the birth," Johnson told Newsweek.
She now sees her TikTok clip as a kind of blueprint: " Life as a mother of three is summed up in this video. The exhaustion I felt this time is nothing like the exhaustion I felt with my older kids."
