老媽別再睡了! 女嬰出“奇招”弄醒沉睡母親

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 2.07W 次

A Texas mom, Esther Anderson, tried to take a nap with her baby but finds that the baby won't take kindly to being ignored. In the video, titled "Why Co-Sleeping Is No-Sleeping," a child shows the great lengths she would go to ensure mom stays awake.

以斯帖·安德鬆(Esther Anderson)是一位來自美國德克薩斯州的普通母親,但她最近在網絡上傳的一個名爲“爲什麼和寶寶同睡根本沒法睡”的視頻成爲了網絡熱點。她想在陪孩子睡覺的時候打個盹卻發現自己的孩子有“惡意擾民”行爲,視頻中的嬰兒使出渾身解數讓母親最終睡不着覺。

Watch Baby Ellia, whose devious inventiveness is belied by her disarming cute looks in pink babygrow, reach for every dirty trick in the book to ensure that her mother stays awake.

視頻中的小嬰兒埃利亞(Ellia)身穿可愛十足的粉紅色連體衣,乍一看不知道她有古靈精怪的一面,實際上她已經可以無師自通地運用各種方式讓媽媽無法睡覺。她用了很多種方法,比如在牀上爬行打滾,不斷拍打媽媽的下巴,戳媽媽的鼻孔和眼睛,拉扯媽媽的頭髮以及躺在媽媽臉上。

老媽別再睡了! 女嬰出“奇招”弄醒沉睡母親

She tries several methods, such as wriggling and rolling on the bed, smacking her mother repeatedly on the chin, poking her fingers in her mother's nose, and then in her eyes; hair-pulling and lying on mommy's face.

她用了很多種方法,比如在牀上爬行打滾,不斷拍打媽媽的下巴,戳媽媽的鼻孔和眼睛,拉扯媽媽的頭髮以及躺在媽媽臉上。

To stop the baby from disturbing her sleep, Anderson gives her a mascara to play with. But the baby won't take a bribe to abandon her mission. She hits mommy in the face with the mascara to keep her awake.

爲制止孩子的搗蛋行爲,安德鬆給孩子一支睫毛膏玩,但這唬弄不了小埃利亞,她用這支睫毛膏拍打媽媽的臉,繼續進行將媽媽弄醒的行動。

The little Machiavelli even tries to charm mommy awake with sweet, flowery kisses.

小埃利亞甚至試圖用甜美的吻來將媽媽從睡夢中喚醒

But when all her milder efforts failed, she reaches, finally, for the meanest and deadliest trick of all. Watch Ellia lay on top of her mother and fart directly in her face.

當這些相對溫柔的對策都失敗的時候,她使出了終極殺手鐗:把自己壓在媽媽頭上,對着媽媽的臉直接放屁。A dirty low-down trick, you'd agree; but as they say, the end justifies the means.

大家應該也認爲這是陰險的伎倆,但正如很多人所想的那樣:目的正當則可不擇手段。

Ellia's impish smile as she finally gets her own way, forcing mom to give up pretending to be asleep, seems to say, "Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air...," literally in this case!

當小埃利亞用不擇手段的方法終於迫使媽媽不再裝睡時,她露出了頑皮的微笑,像是在說:“爲了公平就要犯規,犯規才能實現公平,兩者盤旋在迷霧和污穢的空氣中......”莎士比亞的這段經典語錄簡直是爲小埃利亞而作的。

Anderson posted the video, "Why Co-Sleeping is No-Sleeping," to YouTube on Dec. 2 and it has gone viral with over 2 million views.

12月2日,安德鬆將這個名爲“爲什麼和寶寶同睡根本沒法睡”的視頻發佈在著名視頻網站YouTube上,短短數日就有超過兩百萬的點擊量。

The young mother, who blogs for Story of This Life, wrote in the description of the YouTube video: “Every morning my baby sleeps in my bed with me for a couple hours after she wakes up to eat. And every morning I ask myself why I didn't just put her back in her crib... so this morning I grabbed my cellphone and recorded what my baby alarm clock looks like. I think I'm not alone in this..."

這位年輕的媽媽在著名社交網站Facebook的博客頁面Story of This Life中對這個視頻進行了一些解說:“每天早上我的寶貝醒來吃點東西后就會在我的牀上和我睡幾個小時,每天我也都會問自己爲什麼沒有把她放回她的小牀上,原因就在這裏,今天我拿起我的手機,記錄這個像鬧鈴一樣的寶貝。我認爲有很多人處境和我一樣......”

The famous actor and director Aston Kutcher, shared the video on his Facebook page, where it received over 35,000 likes and nearly 10,000 shares.

著名演員兼導演阿斯頓·屈奇克(Aston Kutcher)將這個視頻轉發在他的Facebook上,獲得了超過三萬五千個點贊和近一萬次的轉發。

This is not the first time that Anderson has produced a YouTube video that went viral. With her husband Thad, she posted a video to YouTube on Nov. 1, 2014, titled, "Escaping a Sleeping Baby," which went viral with nearly 500,000 views.

這不是安德鬆第一次在YouTube上發佈關注度這麼高的視頻,她和丈夫薩得(Thad)一起製作的一個名爲“成功從睡着的孩子身邊撤離”(Escaping a Sleeping Baby)的視頻在2014年11月1日發佈後得到將近五十萬次的點擊量。

The video depicts the delicate and and surprisingly challenging task many parents, trying to lure their baby to sleep, have faced: Leaving the baby's side after she has apparently fallen asleep without waking her up.

這個視頻富有表現力地展現了很多父母都會面對的艱鉅任務:辛苦地哄到孩子睡着後還要小心翼翼地走開以免驚醒到他們。
