Taking care of the elderly is a task that falls to the young for the most part. However, with that being said, that task can be extremely stressful. Yet, it is never okay to lay your hands on that person, especially if they are a woman. Sadly, this recently posted TikTok shows that exact situation as this California man slaps an elderly woman in a wheelchair outside of a hospital. The clip has around 114K likes and 1.7 million views as the woman recording speaks up against this man’s horrible behavior.
The TikTok video begins when the woman recording is already sitting on a bench outside the hospital. As seen in the video, an older man and woman are standing in front of the woman on the bench as the man pushes the elderly woman’s wheelchair. However, the woman in the chair is moving around a lot. This prompts the man to get a little too rough with her as she grabs her shoulders and pulls her back against the chair. Yet, that’s not all he does, as the California man then gives the woman multiple slaps to both sides of her face and neck.
TikTok Roasts Abusive Old California Man
The TikTok comment section is up in arms following this display of horrible behavior from the older man. Many would then flood the video in order to leave behind their own thoughts on the situation. “Can you imagine what he does behind closed doors?” asked one. The person who posted the video also commented, “UPDATE! Security did tell the charge nurse, and they are filing a report.” Finally, one last commenter said, “Her lack of reaction says everything. It suggests this may not be new and that she’s likely been enduring this kind of treatment for a long time.”
As the TikTok video continues, the California woman recording speaks up. She can be heard telling the older man, “Excuse me? You shouldn’t be touching her like that. Don’t be hitting her like that.” The man then shoots her a dirty look as the woman in the chair looked surprised at someone speaking up.
Sadly, the TikTok video would come to an end following this. However, viewers can only hope the elderly woman is safe. As for the older man, this kind of behavior is not okay. After getting caught, maybe he will have a change of heart. At least the California woman was able to stand up to him, even if it was only for a moment.
