VIDEO: Mother travels with child on her wheelchair to mall
Adulting isn't always easy but where there's a will, there's a way.
Life isn’t always easy, especially for parents doing it alone. So, when we see parents doing their best with what they have, it’s both inspiring and hopeful.
The people of Mzansi were moved by a touching moment between a mother and child. A video shared on social media showed a mother in a wheelchair, riding to the mall with her daughter holding onto the back.
It might not have checked all the safety boxes, but it showed a mother doing what she had to. Sometimes, we need to colour outside the lines of social norms to show our kids we’re there for them.
Watch the video, which has hit over 1.1 million views on TikTok.

Lebo, who posted the video, shared how it captured a sweet moment of love between a mother and child.
The mother, Khanya, commented, saying, "Wow, girl, thank you for capturing this moment. She refused to stay inside, and I had to go to the mall to get them warm clothes for church tomorrow since we couldn’t do laundry."
Khanya also did a TikTok Live last night, sharing that her daughter had been unwell the night before, and she had been up all night caring for her.
She spoke about the help she gets from Gogo and how life doesn't quite prepare you for the struggles, but that staying faithful helps.
