A woman in the US has shared the mortifying moment she discovered her six-year-old was leaving secret written “instructions†for their cleaner.
While the mum had intended it to be a funny anecdote about a time she was “mortifiedâ€, the story divided people online, with some arguing it showed the kid was “privilegedâ€.
TikTok user Mary @movementonyourshoulder posted two videos sharing the notes, which included instructions like “put pants on my doll†and “make the desk pretty pleaseâ€.

The six-year-old girl had also left a note on her door which advised the cleaner to “check list of everything I told you to do, and if you do the things check it off and leave it in my room pleaseâ€.
“When the lady who cleans my house texted me to let me know my six-year-old had started leaving instructions,†Mary captioned the first video.
The video, which has since been viewed more than 4.5 million times also got thousands of comments, some of which argued the little girl’s behaviour had been “distastefulâ€.

“The privilege is maddening,†one person wrote.
“Really disheartening that she was already so privileged at that age,†another commented.
But others defended the child, pointing out that she had only been six at the time.
“I can’t believe people are trying to attack a then six-year-old … what is wrong with the world,†one person wrote.
“Y’all need to chill kids aren’t trying to hurt you or anyone else, they are literally developing and learning how to interact with their worlds,†one comment read.

“What is wrong with people she’s six, this is hilarious,†another added.
In a follow-up video Mary clarified that all the notes were from the “same day†and it had happened five years ago.
“It makes us laugh thinking about how she was back then … please be nice,†she said.
In the caption, Mary also wrote that her daughter “grew up respectful/empathetic†and they had used the incident as a teaching moment.
“This was in 2016, she was six, we were mortified and discussed why this wasn’t OK,†she said.
