A mother has raised concerns after noticing her son sleeps with both eyes wide open.
She shared a video on TikTok, showing the boy in a deep sleep with his eyes open and his hands raised.
Alongside the video, she captioned: “Sleeping with two eyes open, be careful who you have kids with.”
Her warning urged women to carefully choose their partners to avoid unusual traits like this.
In a follow-up note, she clarified: “I wanna stressss 😌 this is NOT normal for him 😂😂😂. Right after the video, I closed them, and they didn’t reopen lol. The first time I nudged him awake, he closed them and went back to sleep normally.”
The post sparked reactions online, with concerned individuals flooding the comment section to share their thoughts.
