'We just never thought there was a darker side to what TikTok allows on its platform,' Arriani's mom said.
MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin -- A family is filing a lawsuit against TikTok after their daughter died doing a challenge on the app.
"Just the sadness I see in my son's eyes to sing happy birthday to his sister at her grave. It's very hard. For all of us. But this is the life now we have to adjust to. We sat at a table of four chairs. We sit now at three," Arriani's mom said."We just never thought there was a darker side to what TikTok allows on its platform."
"If you see something online and you see people framing it as fun or a challenge or something interesting, you're sort of gamifying the particular thing and decreasing people's perception of the risks," Arriani's dad said."We don't want no other children out there to be a statistic of this situation again."In July 2021, an 8-year-old from Texas, Lalani Walton, was also found dead from recreating the short video.
