A mother has sparked debate after she filmed herself sticking her child to an airplane seat with fastening strips.
Lisa Flom, from Eden Prairie in Minneapolis, Minnesota, published a video on TikTok to her 800,000 followers and labeled the clip 'Things I wish I knew as a first-time mom'.
The influencer, who regularly shares videos about her parenting hacks, has two daughters aged three and one.
In a clip that has sparked controversy, Lisa filmed herself sticking two strips of fastening material to a navy leather seat on a plane before going on to put a further two on her toddler's clothing.
The mother-of-two then placed her daughter on the seat, but she was determined to wriggle free.

The child leaned forward in a bid to escape the seat and moved side to side to try and free herself, but the fasteners proved to be strong.
Lisa previously spoke to Newsweek about her methods and said it was her husband's idea initially.
Lisa said that motherhood can be 'overwhelming' and added: 'My one-year-old is all over the place and sometimes you just want two minutes to get something done.'
'It was actually my husband's idea to add Velcro to the chair and the back of the baby's clothes so she would stay in one place.'
She added it was a 'fun' thing to do with the children and insisted her hack was light-hearted yet practical.
At the end of their flight, Lisa peeled the strips off both the seat and her child, but this did not go down well with all the viewers.
The video - which was viewed more than 19 million times - racked up thousands of comments from people who were concerned about her baby and other passengers.
One wrote: 'So after you pull it off the next passenger has to sit in the sticky tape residue?'

Another added: 'What about the sticky residue just left for the next passenger?'
A third said: 'And do you pay the airline to get the residue off the seat or do you scrub them yourself?'
Others questioned why she did not bring a car seat with her on the trip and buckle it using the seat belt on the plane.
'Mom of four here. Kid would be safer in a car seat,' one wrote, while another said: 'Just bring her car seat.'
A third commented: 'I take my car seat on every single trip. So easy. And my aunt is a retired flight attendant and have seen lots of babies injured during turbulence.'
'Just bring the car seat! It was a life saver with my toddler,' a fourth said.
Although it is unclear which Airline Lisa and her children were flying with, American Airlines say most seats that are safe to use in cars usually acceptable to bring onto airplanes.
The airline's website reads: 'The seat must have a solid back and seat, restraint straps installed to securely hold the child and a label indicating approval for use on an aircraft.'
The airline said these seats cannot be used in an exit row or in the rows on either side of an exit row and that they are best in window seats.
