In Houston, a mother named Espino discovered her son caught in the act, having taken all the leftover chicken from the kitchen counter. In an attempt to evade questions, the young boy dashed out, only to encounter his father at the doorway. Expecting support, he was instead met with a playful trick. The father spanked his own leg, leading the boy to mistakenly believe he had been struck. This caused an immediate outburst of tears from the child, convinced that his father had hit him.
