My moms friend gave me this monstera today. Her child cut every leaf she had including mine. What do I do?

I’m not like completely sure but I’ve seen videos of people just putting some tape on the bottom on the leaf to hide it. Sometimes, if the cut is still fresh sometimes it might even reconnect in some spots?

Ok thanks!

I personally would just leave them as they are. A few years ago my cat full on threw a tantrum and clawed a few of my monsteras leave they heal along the cuts. Just be sure to not cut area overly wet.

Step one: get rid of child  
Step two: tape plant
