You could argue that your parents have given you everything - they did, after all, give you life. They fed you, housed you, clothed you, and provided you with love and support.
But… they're your parents, so that's their responsibility, right? True, but that doesn't mean you can't find small ways to thank the people who have given you so much as a semi-successful, potentially independent adult.
Recently, a video went viral of a woman who surprised her parents with a gift, and her parents’ reaction literally stole our hearts!

Suhailly Masor, shared the heartwarming video on her TikTok account @suhaillymansor when she surprises her parents with a brand new car.
In the video, she explained that she had asked her father to dress up earlier because a team from a non-governmental (NGO) organization was coming to their house to provide flood relief, but actually she was secretly planning to surprise her father with a new car.
A red car is then seen driving into their driveway while he father stays silent, probably confused and a little shocked at the unfamiliar vehicle.
Suhailly said that her father has been wanting to buy a car for himself, which gave her and her siblings the idea to pool some money together and get it as a gift for their parents.
Soon after, her mother appeared, hugging one of her daughters while wiping away her tears. Suhailly said that her father, who she calls Abah, has been complaining about his old car and how it always leaks when it rains.
“This is a gift from their children. Praise to God, Mama and Abah’s prayers have been answered,” she said in her caption.
Suhailly also included a clip of both her parents going on a drive with their new car.
