Influencer Savannah Glembin has faced severe backlash after posting a video of her young son wrapped in cling wrap from the neck down.

"[Our son] has been taken from us until CPR can evaluate our home, because I posted a video of my husband and son playing," she says in a follow-up video she poster on her account, which has since been switched to private.

The public backlash was one thing, but then child protection services allegedly intervened, and the child was temporarily removed, the New York Post reported.

In the video, Glembim says: "Right now, we’re dealing with a situation where Gunner has been taken from us until CPS can evaluate our home because I posted a video of my husband and son playing. We would never hurt our son. He is the best thing that’s ever happened to us.

"The response that got… like I didn’t know that someone had thought it was bad until yesterday when cops showed up at our door and separated us, his family."
