‘If America offered these they would probably charge us $5,000’: Woman posts the free stuff Scotland gives expecting mothers. Then Americans pop off

A Scottish baby box video on TikTok is stirring feelings of jealousy in Americans after a mom showed off all the supplies she got for free. According to the pregnant TikToker, the Scottish government sends future parents who apply a comprehensive kit of baby items including a built-in crib at no charge.

U.S. residents are contrasting this service to everything their government does to help new parents, which is practically nothing compared to nations like Scotland, Australia, and Finland.
