Recently, a video of a teacher at Hongxu Kindergarten in Shahe Town, Lianyungang City, who had a bad attitude and scolded young children, has attracted public attention after it was released on third-party social media platforms. The video shows that in the classroom, while children are queuing up to collect food, the teacher is filming the video, scolding the children, and occasionally making them smile at the camera being filmed. An informed netizen commented, "This is a matter of our town. At that time, in order to create a warm and joyful scene of students drinking milk and eating cookies, the teacher recorded a video and posted it in the class group. They forgot to turn off the original sound, and then it was uploaded to social media by the parents of the students."
