A MUM has called out other parents on social media for blaming the children for a ‘filthy’ house.
Cara, from the UK, is also a ‘mumfluencer’ but is sick of seeing other parents not taking care of their house or kids.


In a recent TikTok video, the mum-of-five blasted parents for not just living in filth but for posting it online.
She said: “Stop using your children as an excuse to have a dirty home. I mean, messy, yes, but dirty is just unacceptable.
“I have five children myself and I always manage to keep on top of my house.”
While the mum’s words may seem harsh, she knew houses get messy with kids but was sick of seeing them live in dirt.
“Obviously it gets messy because children are messy, but having animal poo smeared across your walls, bathroom that hasn’t been cleaned in about five months, mouldy food on the kitchen side,” she continued.
“Yes, there is actually an account on here and I’ve seen it with my own eyes and it’s actually disgusting.”
Cara didn’t reveal which account she was talking about, but there have been plenty of parents slammed on the app for having a dirty home.
Nicole Austin has been one of the parent influencers slammed for her house.
The soon-to-be mum-of-five has had trolls call the police over ‘child neglect’ because of the mess in her home.
Previously, Nicole revealed she was sick of the state of her house but that mental health problems had gotten in the way of keeping it tidy.
Another content creator, Amanda Rose, has also been slammed online for her cleansing videos.
The self-titled ‘lazy’ mum-of-two showed off her laundry room and said: “Here you have it, another disgusting part of my home so you guys can judge me some more.”
Finishing her video blasting other parents, Cara said: “So stop normalising dirty homes and letting your children live in an absolute pigsty.
“I could never imagine letting my kids live in a filthy home. There’s just no reason for it at all.”
5 cleaning hacks
Say goodbye to ironing
Don’t have time to smooth out the wrinkles of a shirt with an iron? Lenor‘s Crease Releaser makes wrinkles vanish – simply hang up creased items, give them a quick spritz and smooth against a hard surface.
Teabags for trainers
When trainers smell a little squiffy, pop a used (and still moist) tea bag inside and leave for about an hour. The tannins will seep into the sole of the shoe to fight nasty-smelling odours.
Remove limescale without scrubbing
When bathroom taps start looking a little grimy with limescale, slice a lemon in half and sprinkle on baking soda. Rub the fruit over the taps and with a gentle clean they will come up sparkling. Use a toothbrush to get in all the nooks and crannies.
Streak-free mirrors and windows
White vinegar is a handy secret weapon when it comes to keeping mirrors and windows streak-free. Mix one part white vinegar with four parts water in a spray bottle. Squirt then wipe with a microfibre cloth and voilà, clean glass in an instant.
Make your home smell amazing
For dust-free skirting boards, pour some fabric softener onto a cloth and give them a quick wipe. It will stop dirt collecting so quickly and, as an added bonus, make your home smell amazing.
The clip posted to her TikTok account @cara_mamato5 went viral and it seemed many viewers agreed with her stance.
One person wrote: “Mum of 6 and you’re spot on, there’s a difference between untidy and dirty!”
Another commented: “When did living in filth become acceptable? The things I’ve seen just blow my mind…I grew up in a tidy house with a house-proud mum, so my kids are growing up in a tidy house.”
“Absolutely!!! That’s neglect! Kids having a clean home is part of looking after them,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “I think my house is a mess but then I see stuff on TT and I’m like my house is pristine.”
“Nothing better than a clean home,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Exactly this, I hate seeing dirty house.”
