It is unclear whether the boy sustained any injuries. Netizens, however, slammed the act as “irresponsible parenting,” warning against such reckless behavior. The text on the video read: “Never keep your kids out of sunroof. It’s a life hazard. Parents are responsible for keeping their children safe and not endangering them for cheap thrills.”
