We all used to be kids at some point, but child logic still remains largely a mystery. Even when we grow up and become parents ourselves. Imagine stuffing your backpack with "beautiful cube rocks" or bathing in paint containers after your parents spend $150.00 on a pool.
A subreddit r/KidsAreF***ingStupid offers a priceless collection of clueless little ones, both adorable and hilariously funny. “Like what, you seriously can't hula hoop? Jesus Christ,” says the description of the group with a whopping 1.7 million members. All that you're gonna see below will make you wonder whether you too were like this, and the answer is most likely positive.

Wholesome Stupidity
You're pathetic if you call this stupidity. It's childhood innocence.
Not stupid at all! This is innocence at its best and kids are naturally curious. I love that she was polite about it. Enjoy the innocence because once they get older they all of sudden know everything and know more than you! 😂
My 5yo loves temporary tattoos has asked me a few times now why my tattoos don't wash off in the shower. I've tried to explain the process but she still seems to think I draw them on when she's not looking!
To us adults, kids oftentimes look like aliens from another planet. Full of genuine excitement, curiosity, and honesty, they carry the traits many of us lose on our way into adulthood.
Vineet Nayar, the founder of the Sampark Foundation based in Delhi, believes that such traits are so valuable, leaders should take lessons. “The games kids play often have an element of ‘imagine’, which we leaders overlook in our obsessive focus on movement on the road ahead and the rear view mirror.”

In this small world of ours, Vineet claims, we should ask childlike questions like "Why not?" The little ones are also hungry for information, soaking in all the tiniest everyday experiences that turn the world into an enormous playground. Given the opportunity, every child is ready to explore.
“We can discuss other traits of children—trust, loyalty, intuitiveness, responsibility, dedication, competitiveness, collaboration, excitement, adventure, challenge, moral fulfillment, et al.—and apply them to leadership,” argues Vineet.

I never questioned it when it's a kid's shoe, but when it's a single 5" Stiletto, I'm certain there's an interesting story to be told.
My brother did this multiple times when he was a toddler. I seem to recall vacations being his favorite time to participate in this sport, probably because it was hot, we had no a/c, and we were in the car for long periods of time. We actually have family photos of my dad parked by the side of the road while my mom is walking back to retrieve a shoe.

Kids Are Bigbrain
Not really, no. English doesn't have exclusive or inclusive plurals, so in sentences where a subject and an object are both plural, both interpretations are valid, meaning if you happen to misinterpret the sender, that's on you (in this case on the 6yo). English is more restrictive when only one of them is plural, but that's not the case here.

Straight Out Of The Fantasy Book
There seems to be something terribly wrong with catholic school sex education.

I definitely received a real education on all topics, including sex-ed. I am now a registered nurse, and can vouch that my Catholic schooling is not what all these haters are saying it is.

If you consider how the brain developes, this is another stange and a great achievement. At first, children believe objects they do not see do not exist anymore. Than they think if they cannot see something, they cannot be seen. This child found a great way to hide himself altogether, "just" not perceiving yet that a semi-transparent box will not do the trick. Once he fully developed the theory of mind, he will also understand. In short: not stupid, but a good sign of development!
Hence why pick a boo actually fools babies. They think you’re really disappearing and reappearing

My husband says let's play hide and seek. I don't play because it's steaming hot so I stay in the car. After like 10 minutes my 12 year old comes back and said he's bored. About 15 minutes after that my husband comes stomping out of the corn field mad at my kid because he and my 11 year old had been hiding that whole time waiting for my kid to find them and had been sitting in the car with air instead of finding them. I thought it was funny.

Some Siblings Love
My mum asked me - when she was pregnant with my brother - if I would prefer a little brother or a little sister... I said I would prefer a dog.
My step dad said when he was brought home in '55 his older sister (a toddler) said "I'm done, take him back".
My cousin put his new baby brother in a cardboard box and tried to tape it and mail it. Wanted to "return him" because he "his volume button is broken"
My brother was 3 when I was born, and he said “Put that in the bin.” :D
I was 5 when my sister came home I was asked if I wanted to hold her. Of course, baby was dropped. It was an accident but to this day (55 years later) no one believes me. Who hands a newborn to a 5 year old, anyway
When my brother was brought home from hospital, I kicked his car-seat and shouted 'take it back!' XD

Mashed Potatoes
I was gonna say that this kid must be really dumb, but then I remembered that I was about 12 the time I tried to cook glazed carrots *in* the sugar mixture, and we had to throw the pan out. (I have since learned that you cook the carrots in water first, then do the glaze.)
is it a little early for leaving a twelve-year-old alone making dinner and watching out for his siblings? It's illegal where I live.
as for me, i was 10 when the first time i cooked. it just that i need my parents permission to start the fire

My sister and my foster-sister -- who, I should note, is OLDER than I am and was a teenager before she came into our family -- have this routine they do about their recipe for making mashed potatoes. Which is pretty much them just reciting their experience doing so: "First, you mash the potatoes. But they don't mash. So you cook 'em. And then you add butter, and milk, and salt, and pepper... but NO oregano. And NO cinnamon. But a little bit of ginger ale is good." My foster-sister is a much better cook now than she was as a teenager, but her husband still does most of the cooking. And both of her kids were able to cook successfully before they moved out on their own.

The Wonders Of Childhood
When I first heard about "sex ed" at our school, I was in 2nd grade. Older kids were talking about their test for it - they had the fake babies with their partner. I remember my 2 best friends and I sitting on the playground to discuss this. We were convinced that this test involved us being partnered with a boy, then being graded on having sex. If we had the baby, we got an A. I remember that our main concern was WHICH boy we'd be partnered with - not the potential of teachers standing over us, watching us get knocked up at 12 LOL
I can imagine the series of expression on the mom's face, from initial shock to trying to be soothing and reassuring without bursting out laughing.

It can also be a good idea to talk to them about the exciting coloured bottles that you're hiding away on top of the cupboards. You only find out how high a toddler can scale a mountain of toys after they've done it, and curiosity it a big incentive to ingenuity! Let them know what it is, and that it's dangerous and that's why you keep it somewhere safe. Let them have a supervised look at the bottles or tubs to satisfy their curiosity and they will be less likely to feel the need to seek answers on their own. Repeat the lesson every now and again as they grow. Same with medications.
I'm sorry to be negative, but this is one for the stupid parents post not the stupid kids post.

Load More Replies...I always made a rule of having anything sharp, breakable or poisonous (ie cleaners) on the highest shelf or cabinet, not the lowest. And put the heaviest stuff like mixers, cast iron and crockpots lowest so they don't fall.

Locks help, until the adhesive wears off or if your kid is advanced and figures it out early.
Give her a spoon of vinegar or something. She will hate it and won't ever want them again
MOVE THEM. Chemicals go in the highest place with a lock, toys go under the cabinet until she's 18 !

One more time. She finally realized she was calling her home phone and that's why no one was there when she would hang up her cell. It was funny.
happened to me: i was getting ready to go out to meet my partner - shoes on, bag in hand, keys and sunglasses, everything but my phone, so i tell him "i'm going to be a little late, because i'm looking for my phone and i can't find it" and he says "well, you're talking to me..." p.s: he didn't dump me though :)

at least he knows that ghosts and witches are made up.... my almost 10 yr old stepbrother won't sleep over at my apartment because of the "ghosts in the walls". I have loud plumbing.
When I was in sixth grade I was talking to another kid in class and reindeers came up and he just screamed to the whole class "REINDEERS ARE REAL!?" I found out he was probably loopy from painkillers from a surgery he had. But the next day when he was more level headed he still kept going "I really can not belive reindeers are real" still probably the funniest thing that has happened to me.

My Daughter Just Turned 5 And Got A 5 Dollar Bill. She Wanted To Share Her 5 Dollars With Her Little Brother
A child who wants to share money with her brother is the most unusual thing I've read on this page.
51% of a bill in the U.S. can be taken to the bank and exchanged, so do that with the bigger piece.
One time I walking into my sister about to cut a bill in half and the convo went like this: me: why are you cutting that bill? her: I don't want it. me: then give it to me. her: but it's mine! me: but if you don't want it give it to me. her: but it's not yours, its mine! She cut it in half, we taped it together and gave it to our bank.
Awww so sweet. My daughter wants to give her older brother everything <3

You can easily put him to sleep with the answer. Dabbling ducks generally aren't, however some diving ducks could be classified as predators, particularly the Mergansers, which are well adapted to catching and swallowing large fish.
I, on my 5th birthday, counted to 500 after bedtime, ran into my parent's bedroom to tell them, and I saw them trying to make my baby sister. They didn't succeed until my 7th birthday. I am still scarred.

A toddler alone with a full bathtub? This is asking for death. Toddlers have drowned in mere puddles in half a minute of being unsupervised!
I don't know why this is getting downvoted when it is 100% accurate. Toddlers should NEVER be left unsupervised in or near the bath or a paddling pool etc. They can drown in just a few inches of water in just a few minutes. It has happened on numerous occasions and every single parenting book/guide I've ever read has stressed the importance of this. It's up there with putting baby to sleep on their back at the foot of the cot to avoid SIDS.

this is especially common in my country. "state schools" (i.e. public schools, funded by the government) do not provide tp or soap to pupils / students, so most parents make sure their kids have got tissues and wet wipes in their backpack. p.s: some schools started to provide soap after the pandemic broke out.
Load More Replies...I have so many questions about this.... Where to start? Uh... one: Why the eff didn't the school have TP????

I would've went ape s**t on the school for denying my (and the rest of the kids) tp!!!

Load More Replies...It is sad to see how often adults call children, particularly toddlers, stupid, when they really do not understand how they mentally develop, asuming they perceive the world like they do. This actually is really stupid behaviour from those parents. And on top of this, quite a few of the entries here show a neglience of supervsision. Children are hillarious, and children do a lot of stupid things, but it gets much funnier if you try to understand how they think!
For those who perceive me as grumpy. I do condemn the notion of children being stupid, merely because they have no brain developed as an adult. Do you ridicule adults for not still possing the curiosity, endless creativity, and ability to relentlessly practicing movementsa child has?

I will never understand the need to label something silly a child does as "stupid". Children are constantly developing and figuring out a world that is probably extremely daunting for them at times. Children do some really strange things that make us really scratch our heads, but to them it may make perfect sense. They're exploring, learning, and taking the world in. Now, can we have an article entitled "stupid things I've seen grown adults" do?
