Video showing young girl's kindness has people shocked at mom's response

"Some children are born with kindness, even if their parents do not like kindness..."

It's not often that you would find parents discourage their kids from being kind. 

But then again not all of those moments are captured on video to share the tale. One video that we believe to be staged as a way of encouraging kindness, shows a mother and daughter seated on what looks like a train. 

The young girl sits next to her mom and an elderly woman walking with the aid of a walking stick tries to find a seat. 

The mother who is on the phone pulls her daughter back to the seat when she moves to help the old woman. 

But the daughter wakes up and moves the spare seat that has grocery bags on it and guides the old lady to the seat. 

The camera zooms in to show the mother's reaction to her daughter's actions, and she doesn't look pleased, in fact, she looks more embarrassed than anything. 

We are not sure whether the video was staged for certain, but regardless, we think that this is the type of behaviour that any mother or father would be proud of.
