My brother cracked the back of my mom’s phone and they told him it would cost a lot to fix. The next day he found a penny in the grocery store and yelled “LOOK HERES MONEY FOR YOUR CRACK!”
I had to take my son in the bathroom with me… he was little. He hears someone opening a pad and yells SOMEONE IS EATING SNACKS IN HERE!
My son saw a lady in a hijab in Walmart and screamed “WHAT IS SHE?!?” And as I was explaining different cultures, he said “no is she a pirate?!?!?” And I looked again, she was wearing an eye patch. 😭
My daughter is an only child. But calls her baby dolls her “sisters”. She told a lady in Target I left her baby sister in the car. Mid July in SC. Police were waiting for me when I got to check out.
When I was a toddler we were at church and I yelled “who’s the guy in the dress” my Mom shhhed me and said “that’s the father” to which I screamed “THATS NOT MY DADDY”.
During the Barbie movie when they showed depression Barbie my daughter shouted “mommy it’s you!” People around us laughed so loud smh.
My son goes to a catholic school and the teacher emailed me because my son insisted to his entire Kindergarten class that Jesus was a zombie because he came back to life!
When my daughter and I were at the store and we saw a person with dwarfism…she said “they must not have ate their vegetables”…the person heard her 😑
My very white 2yr old daughter. Bowed and said "Ni hao." to an asian family at the doctors office. I have NO clue where she learned this. They were just as confused as I was.
My oldest saw a black lady with what I’m assuming was vitiligo and said “mommy I wish I was tie dye like her” I didn’t respond so of course he had to say it louder.
I got my period at Disney on ice and she was in the stall with me.and saw my underwear AND IN A VERY CROWDED BATHROOM said "Aaw, It's ok you pooped ur pants mommy, it happens"

“MY MOM SAID YOU ARENT ALLOWED TO WEAR PAJAMAS IN WALMART” to the woman wearing Cookie Monster pajama pants
My son told the office lady, the principals and his teacher I was picking him up early because I’m going to prison… I had a court hearing for child support
A lady finished her solo at church and my daughter said LOUDLY, "Her don't sing very good!"
My toddler kept pointing behind me and saying “oooh ghost” and I giggled and said it back before turning around to find a woman in a full burka behind us 😭💀
We encountered someone who didn’t have many teeth and my daughter asked “how much money did you get from the tooth fairy”
We went to the mall in Los Angeles and there were a lot of Asians, my daughter said outloud, “are we in China”
When my little sister was 3 she saw a larger black woman and said “hey big momma” because she had just watched the movie Big Mommas House… I wanted to die…
My son (then 5) pointed at a Mennonite man in a parking lot and said “look Momma, a Pilgrim”!! So loud. People in the parking lot also looked for the Pilgrim. 😬
when I went to pick my 2 year old up and her teacher told me she had to sit out during circle time because she wouldn't stop twerking to the ABCs
My daughter pulled my wig off in the dentist office. In front of an old white man. And swung it.
When my oldest was three (he’s mixed) he screamed “help these white ppl have kidnapped me” because I didn’t buy the toy he wanted. I had to prove he was mine.
How can you prove that on the spot. Honestly, its a real safety issue that we don't have some way to prove kids are your kids. Obviously only in the rare circumstances that your kid pulls this move, OR in a true case of kidnapping. It's not like you have child IDs with photos, listing parent names. Even a birth certificate can't prove which child it belongs to. It's just words typed on paper, not that you'd carry it around with you. For real, the system probably should have a child ID system that's linked to parents, guardians, etc. No joke.
the cashier asked my son a question and he responded with “my grandpa told me not to talk to ugly people”
My son told the cashier with 2 lazy eyes (that pointed outward) that she looked like a lizard. He then proceeded to hiss at her. I never went back to that gas station
my friends kid saw a person who was homeless and asked "are you homless?" they replied "yes" and she said "you look homeless."
