<p>&ldquo;Central PA Pride had a pole set up with an amazing instructor to assist,&rdquo; the caption on the post read. &ldquo;My kiddo is a natural!&rdquo;</p>
<p>The hashtags on the post seem to be related to the Central Pennsylvania Pride Festival, which took place over the weekend in Harrisburg.<br /><br />The video was taken down from LibsofTikTok's page not long after it was posted there.</p>
<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/FAuYLozQhZQ" frameborder="0" width="600" height="315"></iframe><br /><br />A letter from Pennsylvania's Democratic Governor Tom Wolf, who supports the event, was also posted on the popular conservative Twitter account.</p>

<p>&ldquo;@GovernorTomWolf do you condone these actions?&rdquo; the account asked.</p>
<p>Fox News Digital asked Wolf's office for a comment, but they didn't answer right away.<br /><br />The video was criticized by many people on Twitter, who called out the parents and said the scene was wrong.</p>

<p>&ldquo;This is profoundly inappropriate,&rdquo; Federalist Correspondent Tristan Justice posted. &ldquo;Gays who promote this type of grooming are doing such a disservice to gay people.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire tweeted, "I will never vote for a Republican candidate at any level of government who doesn't promise to use all legal means to stop this kind of thing and punish everyone who did it."<br /><br />Fox News Digital asked the Pride Festival of Central PA for a comment, but they didn't answer right away.</p>
