Look, being a kid is hard. You're literally dropped into this world with 0% idea of how anything works and you're expected to figure it all out. Also, full disclosure, I'm pretty sure I was 10 before I knew my left from right, so I was no genius kid myself.
With that said, these kids made some hilarious gaffes, and we have to thank their parents for sharing them with the world!
1. First, there's this kiddo who tried to eat a cracker without taking off his mask:
2. Then there's this kid who — bless him — just really loves his mom and wants to be a part of her life...her whole life:
My son saw pictures of my 5th birthday party and asked why I didn’t invite him. https://t.co/ZcKXlgmxjs
4. This kid who got played and had no idea:
3: Mommy, I don’t want dinner!! Me: I’m not making dinner, I’m making you a big snack 3: Yay! Snacks! 𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗸𝗶𝗱𝘀
10. And this kid who didn't want his shoes to get wet, so he put paper bags on his feet:
11. This kid who got seriously outsmarted by his dad:
my son bet me that he could make a piece of paper fly farther than i could so he spent 10 minutes making the fanciest paper airplane i’ve ever seen. the look on his face when i crumpled mine into a ball and launched it across the house was priceless. sucks to be a loser lmao
12. This kid who actually seemed ready for MENSA until the end of this story:
apparently my nine-year-old nephew wanted permission to make a facebook account and my sister was like "no, you're nine" and then he figured out how to make one behind her back and got caught immediately when he sent her a friend request
13. This kid who is really proud of their, uh, skills:
I asked my new class to write one thing they would like me to know before I start teaching them...
15. And this kid — oh boy — who'd better be cute:
Just walked in on my three year old pumping all of our hand soap into the bathroom sink, chanting “wasting soap… wasting soap…” to himself
16. These boys who fought over an unflushed jobby:
There was a massive unflushed Jobby in the toilet. I asked my boys who did it & my 10yr old son said it was him. My 5yr old son is crying cause he says it was him & his big brother is taking the credit. Have a great week everyone!
17. This kid who might be a genius if they're trying to find a way to get out of eating parsley:
My niece done told her school we put weed in her food at home that’s why she be sleepy 😭💀 YALL ITS PARSLEY 💀 My sister going to jail 💀
18. And this kid who could be a genius, I suppose, but if so they're an evil one:
In theory I love my kids equally but in practice the smallest one filled my shoes with fig newtons and that's not fucking cool
19. This toddler who has proven easy to fool...so far:
Simple facts I'm terrified of my toddler discovering: - public parks don't randomly close - tv's don't run out of batteries - there is no actual world record for "fastest at putting away toys" - chicken the animal and chicken the food are one and the same Got any to add?
21. This kid who totally incriminated himself:
Kids are the best, man. They get all shocked when you figure out they did something wrong like, “mom how’d you know I colored on the table?” Um, because you wrote your fucking name on it?
23. This not-so-discerning eater:
My 4-year-old took a bite out of all of the muffins to determine his favorite. The verdict: Banana nut They were all banana nut.
26. This kid who maybe needs a break from YouTube:
"My son, who loves YouTube, seems to think that 'please subscribe to my channel' is a parting phrase. When he leaves kindergarten or his grandma he says 'Please subscribe to my channel', which puts off everyone around him." https://t.co/VHI2uDCLku
29. This kid who almost gets it:
“Dad isn’t it weird that the word chicken can mean an animal or a type of food?” - my kid, on the verge of making a horrific realization
31. And this kid who, at least, has beautiful teeth:
When my son was 4 he saw a commercial that said "brushing alone is not enough to prevent cavities and tooth decay" so he made us start brushing our teeth with him. It's been 3 years. Nobody tell him.
