“Parents Stir Outrage After Choosing Plastic Box for Baby’s Cave Adventure in Thailand—What Were They Thinking?”
Tora said they were initially “hesitant” about the idea, but were eventually convinced after learning that it was the normal standard on the island and that the guide had done it “hundreds of times” before.
“As first-time parents, we are often on the most cautious side of the spectrum, but as we have traveled to non-Western countries, we have learned that if you want to bring your kids along, that sometimes means doing things a bit outside your comfort zone,” she shared.

“We got out on the other side and the cave was magical, we are so happy we brought him along to experience it.”
The baby enjoyed the “fun” experience, and there were many travelers “cheering him on.”
However, many netizens didn’t find the video adorable in the slightest. Instead, they expressed concerns about the baby boy’s safety, noting that he wasn’t wearing a life jacket.
“It seems kinda unsafe to do it? Box can easily tip over and the baby has no floater,” one user commented, to which Tora replied, “Noo box was very sturdy and we were three people supporting it with floating vests, he was totally safe.”

“Someone truly should call CPS,” raged another netizen.
“Just curious though, you have a life vest on but baby doesn’t?” a third pointed out.
Someone else asked: “Where is the baby’s life jacket? Seriously, guys, come on. That is ridiculous.”
