This Dad Asked His Daughter To Explain Why She Told Teachers He Grew Weed, And It’s Hard Not To Laugh

ADVERTISEMENT

A cute little girl gave her father the fright of a lifetime recently, after receiving a call from her teacher. No, she hadn’t been caught cheating on her test, bullying, skipping class or anything like that, she had simply told a controversial truth about her home life: her parents were growing weed.

On receiving the ‘please explain’ phone call from the concerned teacher, dad Dax Holt decided to confront daughter Skylar on what exactly she had said, and why. In an adorable video, Skylar shyly explained what she meant, and led daddy to the incriminating ‘stash,’ which was not exactly what her teacher had in mind!

Scroll down to check out the hilarious misunderstanding for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

This is Skylar Holt, explaining to her daddy what secrets she had told her teacher about their home life

A friend of mine told me that one day, at a family meeting, his 4yo daughter said she didn’t like her grandpa food, stating that she preferred her mom’s cooking. The father “gently” kicked her under the table, hoping she would stop talking, but, to his surprise, the kid looked at him and asked loudly why he was kicking her. Child innocence is the best.

My dad did this once, but the other way around... I got into a huge fight with one of my teachers and during graduation me and my parents were sitting with some of my teachers and he introduced himself and my dad was like "ooohhh so you are the teacher who..." and I kicked him under the table and in stead of getting the hint my dad said "why did you kick me?!"

My daughter is 10 and just started a new school where they have sparkling water. When the lunch lady told her what it was she informed her that alcohol isnt for kids and they should give it to the teachers on new years eve. She thought it was champagne like mom and dad toast with! Lol

My cousin, 4 yo at the time, was handing out "balloons" to his friends in the neighborhood. Up on close inspection, they were condoms 🤣 It was awkward conversations my aunt had with other parents 🤣🤣

Careful. Such "recorders" are honestly transmitting anything to anyone unfiltered. Best spies for ruthless authorities.

... and some stupid adults take it as is, knowing that they are talking to a kid, assuming they know exactly what they are talking about, and know perfectly well what "weed" is, rather than doing a few extra checks to confirm that they are actually talking about that very thing, then run to the police and social services at the slightest suspicion. When dealing with kids, you need to make them explain what they mean, as it is often not the same thing as what you think it means. Kids minds are often so far away from adults, that you end up in these ridiculous situations for no good reason.

My sister once asked at age of four if my neighbours' wives had passed away. They were gay..my mum told her our neighbours did not had wives but were in love with eachother. Children's logic at it's finest.

As someone who worked with children for a long time, I has to sort out lots of misunderstandings due to children misspeaking. Honestly this teacher could have sorted this with a few innocuous follow up questions.

Very true. Some simple questions would have cleared this up. Perhaps the teacher likes messing with parents' heads!

That girl is the best example for where "stupid fellow parrot citizens" are basing their vicious rumours on. Unfortunately if some community members are to lazy to investigate further, one's career could be finish and costing a lot of legal costs to get one's reputation re-established. Just take this stupid joke: "Your Dad is a lousy timid bunny." "Why ?" "Every time your Mum is on a business trip, your Dad is sleeping at that lady neighbour …" Ooops.

Different but similar. My mom was old and still lived in the city where I grew up. One day on the phone she said, "We have a real math problem around here". She continued to explain how the police were trying to crack down on math. Finally became clear that she met METH.

The teacher could have asked the child to elaborate - "Show me what it looks like? Do we see any similar plats outside? "

I'm sure that the teacher was just making sure that she was safe in her home. I would've been much more upset if they hadn't inquired. Their interpretation of weeds might also include overgrown grass or we're simply not seeing it in the video.
