Video footage of the birthday party, which reportedly took place in the United States, show several exotic dancers performing for the boy.

In one short segment, the boy appears uncomfortable while two strippers dance for him and rub their breasts against his face.

Another clip shows the boy with his top off, dancing with one of the lingerie-clad women by a stripper's pole.

The father can be seen smiling broadly and encouraging his son.

The video was shared widely on YouTube where users have questioned the father's parenting abilities.

Commentators have called the father's 'birthday gift' inappropriate, saying a pre-pubescent boy should not be sexualised in this way, with some even calling it sexual abuse of a child.
