A grandmother went viral in China after she put two toddlers on a leash which she tied around her own waist to prevent them from getting into trouble while she cooked.

The mother of the twin boys, surnamed Su, said she felt guilty for leaving her sons with the older woman because it is harder for her to chase around two toddlers by herself.
Su, who lives in Shijiazhuang in central China’s Hebei province, said the boys are nearly two years old, and were tied to the rope so they did not walk far away from their grandmother while she was cooking.
“It’s hard for my mother to babysit two kids and cook at the same time. So, she invented this way to prevent them from falling down,” she was quoted as saying.
“I felt a bit guilty because my mother raised me and now she still has to help me raise my kids,” she said.
