One of the core issues discussed is the mindset behind these behaviors: the drive for social media fame at the expense of moral boundaries. Many of these videos are made with little regard for the wellbeing of the children involved, just to garner likes and views.

Instead, these egg-cracking videos are purely performative acts meant for internet applause, with little or no regard for the children’s feelings or safety.
