TiktokAdults, believed to be his parents, can be seen looking on '/ ' The video uploaded to TikTok was filmed in southwestern Florida and appears to show a young boy standing on the side of a busy road with a large sign that reads "I am a bully. Honk if you hate bullies". The youngster, who seems to be being punished for bullying another child, is seen standing in a grassy area, holding up a pink sign fixed to a piece of wood. The sign's message is in all caps and is very visible to cars on the road. The boy appears unhappy and uses the sign to cover part of his face. Several feet away, a couple who appear to be his parents can be seen sitting in outdoor lounge chairs, looking unbothered. It is not clear whether the video was a real punishment or a stunt, or whether if the couple are his parents or an alleged victim's parents.
