What is the most brutal thing a child has said to you?


  1. “Daddy when we hit the waves your boobies bounce”

  2. My kid asked me why I have witch hands (bony with long fingers) and whether she would get them when she got old. She cried when I said yes.

  3. Back when I taught Martial arts, one of my students asked me why I cut my hair. I told him “I thought my old one was ugly so I wanted one that would make me look more handsome.” His response? “Oh. You’re still not handsome.” It gave me a good laugh. I mean it completely crushed me inside but when you have a class of students and parents with all eyes on you, you can’t let anyone know.

  5. I was co-teaching some classes and this little girl hugged my leg and said, "miss Ashley, I love you. But miss Lisa is so much prettier. Your husband should marry her."

  6. I asked the kid of a Spanish family I was living with a question, and he responded: "I didn't understand, and please, don't repeat."

  8. This wasn't brutal in a mean way; more like a heart wrenching way. There's 13 years difference between me and my youngest brother. I was 17 and looking at going off to college, so he would have been 4. I was driving him to his speech therapy one day for my mom when he starts crying. So I asked him what's wrong. He said it's because I was "leaving forever". I assured him it wasn't forever and that I would visit plenty. He sobs, and in the most pitiful voice ever asks me, "Why are you tearing my heart out?" EDIT: For the few people that asked, I'm 31 now so this was about 14 years ago. He is just finishing up his first year at community college funnily enough.

  9. "You sound like a donut." I don't even know what that means.

  10. Brutal but in a good way. When I was sick I did some volunteering with my old elementary school. I had stage 4 lymphoma and was doing treatment, so the teacher kindly mentioned to the kids. One little girl comes up to me and grabs my hand. I ask her what's wrong and she asks me "but there's a stage 5 right?". It was one of the moments that really made my click that it was pretty serious what I had. Kids have a "no filter" type comments that can really hit home...

  11. “You don’t have a girlfriend?” “No, not yet.” “Oh. Makes sense” Never been so emotionally damaged before.

  12. My 6 year old just brought us a letter written in crayon. It says “I ❤️ U daddy mommy” but daddy is crossed out. She turned to her daddy and said “I don’t love you daddy”

  13. “Why do you have holes in your face?” I have acne scars..

  14. I was leaning back relaxing in a really unflattering way on the couch because I was sort of sick and my god daughter looks at me and goes, "Frostysbox, when did you get so big and not pretty?"

  15. "why do I have 2 daddy's?" I had to ask her mother the same thing.... Spoiler Alert: Divorced EDIT for context: It sucked, but I am grown and everything will always pass.
