A video that spread rapidly on social media platforms brought discussions about "freedom of belief" and "parenting attitudes." The video features a dialogue between a father who identifies as a deist and his son Eren, who chose Islam.
STARTED WITH "MY MUSLIM SON," ENDED WITH A JOKE
During the meal, the father asked his son about the taste of the sausage and received the response "Quite nice." He initially made an emotional speech expressing respect for his son's faith choice. However, he immediately called the waiter and asked whether the sausage contained pork. Upon the waiter's "Yes" answer, the father laughed, saying, "It's made of pork, go on," and the child's sadness was captured on camera.
RECEIVED BACKLASH ON SOCIAL MEDIA
There was a significant division in the reactions that followed the video's spread:
Many users described mocking the child's religious sensitivity as "psychological violence" and "disrespect." Especially the child's facial expression at the moment he learned the sausage was made of pork became the focal point of criticism.
Some users argued that it was an innocent joke between father and son and that the video was shared in a humorous manner.
The dialogue between the father and son in the video went as follows:
Father: Yes Eren, how was the meal?
Eren: I think it was quite nice.
Father: Did you like the sausage?
Eren: I think the sausage is very nice.
Father: Now you have chosen to be the Muslim son of a deist father. I respect you... But we have a tiny little problem. I will get help for this...
Father (to the waiter): This sausage contains any pork?
Waiter: Yes.
Father: It's made of pork... Did you like it? But it was very nice. What happened? Go on.
After these sentences, the little child's facial expression and suddenly stopping eating to say "I'm full" drew attention.
