A mother has been arrested after she posted a video of her daughter licking a medical tool before putting it back in the jar.
Cori Ward, 30, filmed her daughter with the piece of equipment at a doctors' surgery in Jacksonville, Florida.
The clip shows Ward's 10-year-old girl opening a jar of tongue depressors before grabbing one and sticking the item in her mouth.
She then places the used depressor back into the container.
The video, which was originally posted on Snapchat, has since gone viral.
Ward has been charged with tampering with a consumer product without regard for possible injury - which is classed as a felony in the US.
