July 2024 · 3 minute read

A family has been slammed on social media for sharing a video of themselves serving spaghetti and meatballs to their children on the ground and forcing them to eat it with their hands.

Kimmy, 29, and Steven Houghton, 32, from Texas, took to TikTok to share a video of their one-year-old daughter, Stevie Kate, alongside other family members, who were also children, eating dinner.  

However, this wasn't your traditional run-of-the-mill family dinner. 

The influencer family boasts over 193,000 followers and regularly post videos of their daughter and the various adventures they take her on.

However in this video, Kimmy documented the moment her and her husband decided to go for a more unconventional dinner.

They laid a sheet on the ground outside and poured spaghetti, sauce and meatballs on it while their child and other family members watched. 

After pouring the food onto the sheet, the children took to eating.

And if eating on the ground in the Texas heat wasn't bad enough, Kimmy and Steven didn't even give the children silverware. 

'When you put your husband in charge of dinner and clean up,' read the text overlay in the video. 

Kimmy then showed the children grabbing handfuls of spaghetti and stuffing their mouths with their dinner as their one-year-old even rubs her feet in the food. 

The children didn't seem to mind Stevie Kate's feet in their dinner as they grabbed handful after handful despite the dinner having most likely been infested by swarms of ants.
