Facebook has changed its stance on how to address a disturbing video showing a crying baby being held upside down and repeatedly dunked in a bucket of water. Initially, when members of the online community expressed outrage over the viral clip and demanded that it be taken down, the social media giant said the video depicted a form of baby yoga and didn’t violate any policies. Now, the Menlo Park-based company agrees the treatment of the child depicted in the video is inappropriate and distressing and will pull the video in cases where it promotes or mocks the behavior. The video is thought to originate from Indonesia and quickly went viral on Facebook around the world and especially in the UK.

NOTE: We will NOT share the video as it is too disturbing, but for anyone who wants to view the video it can be seen HERE. This self-proclaimed “Baby Yoga” is not new, by any means. It is inhumane, abusive, and should be ILLEGAL!!

It’s not to vent our anger and frustration at a world where drugs can be ordered and delivered through the internet. We write this obituary in hope that it may provide an insight to those that need to change their behavior one night at a time.” READ MORE HERE
