In a viral video, the mom explained that she had put her children to bed at 8 pm, and checked up on her two-year-old toddler once more before going to bed herself. \u201cI open the door, I see him in his bed\u2026 and he\u2019s perfectly fine. So I go to bed,\u201d she said. \u201cThen at about 1:45 am, I am woken to three police officers coming into my bedroom \u2013 not my front door, my bedroom. Thank god this is a night that I chose to sleep in pyjamas.\u201d The police told the mother and her husband that they found a toddler outside in the front yard \u201ccrying and screaming, and cold,\u201d and they were holding him in an ambulance. \u201cI, having just been woken up from a dead sleep, rush into my son\u2019s room to find him not there and then proceed to run down the stairs, out the front door\u2026 and down the block to find my son,\u201d she recalled. \u201cThey parked him a good distance away just so he would be safe, just in case we were drug addicts or, you know, horrible people.\u201d The TikToker was shocked that she didn\u2019t wake up at the sound of the baby monitor or even the police officers at her front door. \u201cNo one else in my house woke either until police officers entered my bedroom,\u201d she said. \u201cMy dog didn\u2019t bark \u2013 he always barks \u2013 my husband didn\u2019t wake up, my mother-in-law didn\u2019t wake up, no one. \u201cI don\u2019t know how long he was out there. I feel like the sh*ttiest mom ever.\u201d The traumatized mom concluded her video by saying, \u201cI am not going to sleep well for a very long time.\u201d In the comments, TikTok users tried to comfort the distraught mom by sharing their own similar stories. \u201cThis is the exact reason we have deadbolts at the top of our doors. Years ago my toddler got out front while I was asleep,\u201d one user shared. \u201cI think all parents have a scare with their little ones getting out. It happened to me. I got the locks for the top of my doors as a secondary measure,\u201d another added. \u201cMy 5yo told us that one night she couldn\u2019t sleep so she went to the front yard and prayed then came back inside. We now have an alarm,\u201d someone else said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TikToker wakes up to find police in her bedroom after her toddler snuck out at night TIKTOK: mustangashley9A TikToker was shocked as she woke up to police barging into her bedroom, after her toddler snuck out in the middle of the night.
