Beijing: A disturbing incident at a restaurant in Hangzhou has sparked outrage after a two-year-old boy urinated into a glass meant for customers, with his mother defending the act.
According to a report by the South China Morning Post, a diner, identified as Tang, witnessed the incident at Fuyuanju Restaurant on March 13 and later reported it to local media.
Tang recounted that the child, who was dining with his mother and two elderly relatives, suddenly stood up, pulled down his trousers, and urinated into a glass. When one of the elderly family members suggested using a bin, the boy’s mother dismissed the idea, saying, "Just let him pee directly into the glass."
Tang expressed frustration that the restaurant staff, despite being nearby, did not intervene. The urine-filled glass remained on the table, creating an unbearable odor for other diners. Eventually, Tang and her friends had to request a staff member to remove it.
While the boy’s mother later apologized, she defended her actions, stating, "We're sorry, but he really couldn't hold it anymore. So he peed in the cup."
The incident has drawn widespread criticism on Chinese social media, with many comparing it to the recent “Haidilao Urinating Gate” scandal, where two teenagers were caught urinating into a hotpot at a well-known restaurant chain, causing public outrage and financial repercussions for the company.
