Mother Orders A Shirt From China For Her 3-Year-Old, Receives A Top With Inappropriate Text
Shopping online allows you to get all the stuff you need without leaving your couch. It’s fast, super convenient, and reliable. Well, almost always reliable. We all know that sometimes weird things can happen while we shop online because you can never be sure what you’ll get in the mail. A few months ago, we gathered an amusing list of people’s online shopping fails. But probably nothing will top the recent incident one mom had while picking out her daughter a simple, cute t-shirt.

Recently Kelsey Dawn Williamson, a mother of 3-year-old Salem, went viral for sharing a t-shirt she received from Chinese retailer
Kelsey Dawn Williamson, 23, from Benton, Illinois recently shared a photo of a shirt she bought for her daughter, Salem. The young mother picked a cute top with an iconic image of classic children’s book characters, Frog and Toad, but once she opened the package, the woman completely flipped out.
As it turns out, the clothing intended for children to wear had a very crude slogan. Kelsey was completely shocked by it since the photo on the Chinese online shopping retailer website had no text on the t-shirt design at all. “I was shocked. I just stared at the t-shirt slogan for a few minutes because it took some time for me to process it. Once it totally set in, I texted my husband to call me ASAP. He FaceTimed me, I held the shirt up. All he could say was “oh crap” and we just busted out laughing!” she told Bored Panda.
Once the mom shared it on Facebook, the photo of her daughter wearing the funny t-shirt went viral. “It was really funny at first and my husband and I kept joking “our daughter is kind of famous right now” but I’m ready for it to start dying down. I miss spending my time on Facebook sharing memes instead of replying to messages (as much as I love everyone who has messaged me such sweet things! I feel the need to reply to every one of them with a personal message and it’s taking a while!)” Kelsey said. The hilarious design fail left most people in stitches, with only a few who didn’t find this funny fail amusing at all. “I would say 85% of people think it’s hilarious and the other 15% were pretty offended by the funny slogan.”
However, the fun was ruined by a handful of rude messages Kelsey received. Some people began bullying and harassing the 3-year-old Salem for her weight.
“Most of the mean messages I’ve received have been about my daughter’s weight. A lot of them were questioning my parenting (about her weight and not the shirt!), telling me that she was fat and obese, joking that the shirt was too small for her anyway. It really broke my heart. I almost deleted the post later in the day after I posted it because I just couldn’t stop crying. She’s such a sweet, awesome little bubbly thing and I can’t understand how anyone could ever say these things. She really does see multiple doctors for her weight, she eats really well and is constantly on the go. Most days I can’t even keep up with her!” the heartbroken mother revealed.
Appaled at how cruel people could be online, Kelsey said that no one could be so mean to her adorable daughter if they would meet her in person. “I guarantee my daughter would wave, yell “hello!” and tell them to have a good day. No one should be able to be mean to such a kind child,” she said.
Sadly, a few people decided to ruin the hilarious mishap by bullying her daughter, which prompted others to defend the little girl and her mom
However, the majority reacted by laughing at the t-shirt fail

Share on FacebookPeople don't realise there could be other factors going on here regarding the health of the chid and the post was about the t.shirt.......stop being so bloody mean. I had a chubby two year-old and thirty four years later he's 6ft 2 in and slim build. Kids can grow out of this. Does sound like mum is doing everything she can and taking her to hospital to check on her, so hush up people. Stop being online bullies it's cowardly and mean.
Agree 100%. My son went through the same and worse as he was bullied for being chubby.
Load More Replies...I'm guessing that the idiots calling attention to the adorable child's weight aren't exposed to a lot of children? That's commonly referred to as "baby fat" that will probably be worked off because she's at the age where she is getting very active. Good gravy, don't these people have anything better to worry about?
And yet she still have her daughter wear the shirt and took a picture. And of course post it to social media.
The mom is stunning and the girl is absolutely amazing!! So cute
Just why would someone name their child after a town infamous for its horrific witch trials...
Man people suck if they made the time to say something hateful about her kids weight
I'm a little confused as to why people think "#@%$ the police" is funny or hilarious. Or when someone says "I'm losing my absolute mind over this", what is an "absolute mind"? My niece and a good friend were beautiful, chubby little girls-- active and ate healthy. They are both large women. But, it sounds like the Mom in this story knows what she is doing, so lay off. People have no fear online because there is no spontaneous reaction that they have to contend with. They are cowards. Rude online, rude in person, the only difference is they don't risk a punch in the nose - but they're still rude.
She might be a bubbly happy little girl, but she’s going to have a miserable childhood if she’s overweight. I’m not saying it’s right, but it’s a fact.
Not necessarily....she's seeing doctors about it and has her on the diet they've recommended, what more can she do?

Hey, instead of F@#K the Police. How about F%@ the Public. She is 3 for cryong out loud. Some People are just so hateful and disgusting. There will always be trolls. And there will always be people like you and I and a hell of a lot of other people on this thread that will make sure the light outshines the darkness.
A: I need this shirt in my life and I really want to see if there are more with adorable kids book pictures and completely inappropriate sayings. B: WHY DOES EVERYONE FEEL THE NEED TO EXPRESS THEIR RUDE A*S OPINIONS!!! Ok I understand that putting up a picture online you are opening yourself up to people but whatever happened to common fluffing courtesy? Why the actual fluff can't we just keep our ride a*s comments to ourselves? Why do we feel the need to question another person's parenting style and then say horrible hateful things? Live and let live guys can we all stop being a******s now? PLEASE
You just expressed YOUR opinion about it! Everyone has one. Not everyone has a good one. It's life. Welcome to the internet!!!

Most of the shirts that are sent to China from the USA are shirts that weren't capable of being worn here for one reason or another (cut, typos, language, wrong logo, bad printing..) You were nice enough to bring one back..lol
They are not sent to China from USA, they are manufactured in China

That's so random. I guess someone loved this 'prank' or never bothered to use translate but mostly random.
I want one for myself. But what do you expect when you're buying a $4 shirt from China.
Hard to complain about the funny NWA slogan on the shirt when dress your toddler up as Harley quinn who's a psychopath super villian. Theres no excuse for making fun of her daughter though
Yes, heaven forbid you dress your kid up for Halloween! (note other costumes in background and fall fest sign)
Load More Replies...China has a lot of inappropriate clothing for children and even let their kids wear them. Why? Well because they just don't understand. They found it on Google and was printed on an item and sold cheaply from their wear houses and in their local markets. Btw this article is about the shirt not the child. Stay focused America.
People are so ridiculous! In today's society there is no "right" size! Every kid is always "that kid is too fat," or "that kid is too skinny"!! And for people to harass mom because she shared the picture of her little angel wearing the inappropriate t-shirt. She wasnt condoning a child to wear inappropriate clothing, she was making the statement "i ordered a cute t-shirt for my baby and they sent me THIS"!! People are idiots!
Only the famous one ;) I do know a lady named Portland. Her parents named each of their kids for various Oregon cities, and she's continued the tradition with her own kids.

Eating less treats will not necessarily make a difference. The kid's growing. In this world of crazy dieting, working out and eating disorders, you're attacking a little innocent toddler. (i'm not holding anything against people who try to eat healthy or work out, good for you, but it's just ridiculous to attack a little kid) Period.
