A disgraced Florida mother was arrested this week for slapping her young son as he struggled to help her make an Instacart delivery.<\/p>\n

Gut-wrenching surveillance footage captured the cruel exchange just outside the customer\u2019s door at the St. Augustine apartment complex, where Kiah Lowery, 36, can be heard demanding that her 6-year-old child \u201cpick up\u201d some of the deliveries \u2014 while hurling slurs and profanities at him<\/p>\n

\u201cF\u2013king prick,\u201d the woman groused in the Ring camera footage. \u201cYou carry this f\u2013king water.\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Lowery allegedly handed the boy the 24-pack of bottled water \u2014 and eerily promised that \u201cI\u2019m not going to hurt you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The boy immediately struggles under the 26 pounds of weight, pleading with his mother that it\u2019s too heavy.<\/p>\n

He weighs just 49 pounds, cops noted in a police report obtained by The Post.<\/p>\n

\u201cOw! I can\u2019t hold it!\u201d he shouts before uncontrollably dropping it to the ground, breaking open the packaging and sending the bottles rolling on the hallway floor.<\/p>\n

The boy attempts to run from his mother, but she grabs him by the shirt and slaps him across the face.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re the worst. You\u2019re the f\u2013king worst,\u201d the woman shouts as the crying boy cradles his head.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow dare you. You are a f\u2013king piece of s\u2013t,\u201d the mother continues before demanding that he get back to work.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re going to carry something.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Instacart customer reported the \u201cviolent interaction\u201d to police the same day.<\/p>\n

Lowery was charged with child abuse in connection with the May 31 incident, the St. Johns County Sheriff\u2019s Office announced Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendant\u2019s actions, before her reaction of striking the victim\u2019s face, created a severe imbalance for the victim,\u201d police wrote.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe victim was clearly unable to hold the\u00a0water and was struck and scolded by the defendant for an action that he was incapable of performing.\u201d<\/p>\n

When police investigated the incident, Lowery allegedly told cops that her son was being \u201cdefiant\u201d when she was fulfilling three orders at the complex. <\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

She apologized, claiming that her behavior was a result of an \u201cover-stimulated moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lowery was booked into the St Johns County Jail, but posted a $5,000 bond. <\/p>\n

She has been prohibited from contacting or seeing her child and has been ordered to stay at least 500 feet away from him. <\/p>\n
