15 Kids Who Did a Great Job…Of Insulting Adults

For better or for worse, kids are unfailingly honest.

It’s mostly that they haven’t really figured out the whole “lying to make people feel better” thing, but it’s also partly that they genuinely don’t care about your feelings.

It’s refreshing…most of the time. I’m not sure I would have survived any of these 15 encounters without at least a couple of tears.

15. In what way, exactly? I have questions.

“I used to be a nanny for a little boy. One day, while I was looking at my reflection in a mirror, he came up behind me and whispered, ‘You look like Shrek.’” —amberlilyb

14. It’s good logic, I guess. So that’s something.

“My 8-year-old son suggested I dye my hair a very bright color — that way people wouldn’t be looking at how fat I was, they’d be looking at my hair.” —gemma13

13. You only really need to be concerned if she’s clairvoyant.

“I was driving my 5-year-old niece home after spending the day with her. Out of nowhere she said, ‘Lala, I’m so sad for you. You’re never going to get married and you live alone.’” —laurena4f5591b42

12. It’s better when you hide your face. Ha!

“My little cousin asked me why I didn’t wear contacts, and I said, ‘Because I feel like I look better with glasses on.’ She asked me to take my glasses off, and when I did she said, ‘Yeah, you’re right.’” —mel321

11. She’s going to be famous.

“My friend’s daughter drew a very detailed picture of me sitting on the couch having coffee with a messy bun and my neck fat lines.” —emilyroseberg

10. It takes some chutzpah to straight up ask someone if they’re an alien.

“I had a kid at work ask me if I was an elf disguised as a human because my ears are so big.” —karab467e5ec81

9. Sick burn, kid. Yikes.

“My nephew said, ‘I like butterflies, flowers, rainbows and hearts.’ My friend then asked, ‘What about your aunt?’ My nephew said, ‘No. I like beautiful things.’” —juliac4749950b2

8. Well, that gives you something to work on. He’s helpful!

“My older sister was trying to hype me up about my dating life, so I jokingly asked, ‘OK so why am I still single then?’ My 5-year-old nephew, who was walking past us, said, ‘Cause you’re boring and have no friends.’” —chanl

7. You’ve never been embarrassed until you’ve taken a young child into a public dressing room and/or bathroom.

 “My friend’s 5-year-old made up a song about her mom’s ‘long boobs’ while my friend was trying on bathing suits.” —katem46ab993ed

6. It’s time for someone to learn we don’t touch without asking.

“I recently lost a considerable amount of weight and have loose skin. My 4-year-niece brought her friend over to me, lifted up my shirt, and said, ‘See, I told you she’s melting.’ I wear Spanx now when I see her.” —r4732565ca

5. You gotta love his manners, though.

“My 5-year-old held the door open for me when I was carrying groceries into the house, so I said, ‘Thanks, buddy.’ He replied, ‘I’m helping the elderly.’ I’m 27.” —chelsr2

4. Tell me how you really feel.

“I was on the bus with an 11-year-old girl I was nannying when she pointed out a woman sitting across from us and said, ‘Look, she has the same haircut as you! But you see, it looks good on her.’” —carolinemariegillespie

3. Okay now that’s just rude.

“My mom came back from the dentist and told us she had sensitive teeth because she had bone loss. My 8-year-old sister replied, ‘You have everything loss, bone loss, hair loss, sight loss, everything but weight loss.’” —xkgggx

2. Yeah and that’s why you should listen to me.

“I used to work at a daycare and a sassy little girl named Arya once told me I have the face of a monster.” —chelseah30

1. I’ve always suspected, but come on. LIE.

“My 4-year-old niece was watching me put makeup on. When I finished, she said, ‘You look pretty with makeup on.’ I said, “Oh, do I not look pretty without makeup?’ To which she replied, ‘No.’” —annar84

I mean, yikes. You want the truth? Ask a child under the age of 10.

Study Blames a Lack of ‘Economically-Attractive’ Men for Declining Marriage Rates

This sure doesn’t sound good. I know fewer people have been getting married, but I thought the cultural shift was due to other things.

Once again, I was wrong.

Researchers at Cornell University released a study with a pretty sobering conclusion: there aren’t as many “economically-attractive” men as there used to be for unmarried women to pick from.

Ouch.

The researchers looked at data from marriages between 2007-2013 and 2013-2017. They then looked at the financial and sociodemographic data of the potential husbands for unmarried women by creating economic profiles based on real husbands who had already married similar women. Then, the “potential husbands” were compared to real population data of men across the United States.

After they crunched the numbers, the researchers found some grim data: the “potential husbands,” aka the ones who don’t exist, had an average income 58% higher than the actual, real population of unmarried men currently on the market in the U.S. The “potential husbands” also were 19% more likely to have college degrees and 30% more likely to be employed.

In a media release, the study’s lead author Dr. Daniel T. Lichter said:

“Most American women hope to marry but current shortages of marriageable men–men with a stable job and a good income–make this increasingly difficult, especially in the current gig economy of unstable low-paying service jobs. Marriage is still based on love, but it also is fundamentally an economic transaction. Many young men today have little to bring to the marriage bargain, especially as young women’s educational levels on average now exceed their male suitors.”

Man, reality can be a real bummer sometimes…

A Woman Kept Her Personal and Professional Lives Completely Separate, but Years Later Wonders If She Was Wrong

A lot of us prefer to keep a good line between work and home, if only to keep ourselves sane and to be able to focus on one without the other creeping in.

That said, it’s a bit odd to work somewhere for nine years and never reveal anything personal to the people you work with every day.

It’s also a bit weird if, when they learn you’ve been holding out on them and go cold, you feel as though you’ve lost friends.

AITA for hiding my personal life at work? from AmItheAsshole

Because if you were so intent on being extremely private, why would you believe you had friends at work?

Anyway.

This woman’s personal life was outed by a new (nosy, by her account) employee, and now she’s wondering if she was wrong, since her co-workers are miffed.

Most people fall either in the NAH (No A**holes Here) or YTA (You’re the A**hole) camps and I have to say I agree.

You aren’t the asshole!

But… she’s KIND of the asshole…

It’s complicated…

Her coworkers definitely aren’t in the wrong feeling slighted (aside from the snoopy one, but that’s really a different question).

Melinda! Stay in your lane!

Personally, I think it’s her business how she wants to conduct herself at work, but she can’t expect people to be friendly if she’s clearly demonstrated not wanting to be friends.

Just sayin.

A Dad Wanted to Know If He’s Wrong for Not Wanting to Share His Daughter With Her Stepdad on Her Wedding Day

What do you think about this story?

The way families look has changed for many people over the years, which means that, in the best of cases, the involved kids have more people to love and care for them as they grow up.

Mature adults are able to put the kids first, and realize that anyone willing to love a child is worth respecting (even if you like having to do it), but others struggle with this concept years after the fact.

Which is what’s happened here.

The original poster (OP) is a dad who split from the mother of his daughter two decades ago. His ex remarried to a man she’s still with, a man who was a stay-at-home dad and quickly bonded with OPs daughter – a fact her biological dad always hated.

AITA for telling my daughter [26F] that I [55M] will not walk down the aisle with her stepdad [50M]. from AmItheAsshole

Now, she wants both of them to walk her down the aisle at her wedding but OP is refusing to the point of claiming he won’t go to the wedding at all if she insists on her stepdad being part of the process.

It probably comes as no surprise to you (or it shouldn’t) that the majority of people on the Am I The A**hole Reddit thread that most people agree he’s the jerk, here (YTA – You’re The A**hole, in Reddit language).

Maybe this dad needs to know how to dad better… like a lot better…

This makes some people remember their own shitty fathers…

It’s one after another.

In fact…I couldn’t find anyone who disagreed. Rightfully so.

Yeah, it’s pretty much unanimous.

I hope this man took everyone’s comments to heart, apologized to his daughter, and plans to do whatever she wants on her big day, but based on most of his replies, I doubt it.

And I hope the daughter has a wonderful day, regardless of a father who can’t grow up enough to put her first.

A Study Showed That Older Parents Still Lose Sleep over Their Adult Children

I’ve wondered if my parents still do this, even though all five of the kids they raised are grown up and out of the house.

And now I have an answer.

A study published in The Gerontologist Journal shows many older parents worry about their adult children as much as they did when they were raising them as youngsters.

It also found that there was a correlation between sleep quality and parents worrying about their adult children.

It makes sense when you think about it: when kids are raised by their parents, mom and dad are always home and around the children. It’s when the kids leave the house to go out into the world for college or a job that mothers and fathers begin to experience more worry and stress due to uncertainty and not being in close proximity to their sons and daughters at all times.

Amber J. Seidel of Penn State York, the leader of the study, said:

“I feel that many share this value, yet I think much of the socialization in our culture focuses on the family when children are younger. I seek to study topics that help us understand how family continues to be a central part of our lives throughout adulthood, and I encourage considering family-level influences in all situations.”

The study is obviously more reflective of parents in the West and in Europe, as it is more common for children to live with their parents longer in the East. In the U.S. and Europe, children are pushed toward independence at a younger age.

Seidel ended the study by encouraging parents to consider the type of relationships they have with their adult children because the level of involvement they have with their kids and how much support they offer them affects parents’ sleep cycles. The questions Seidel thinks parents should ask themselves include, ‘Are you enabling your child by rewarding lazy or destructive behaviors?’, ‘Are you trying to control your child in any way?’, ‘Or are you simply letting your adult child live their life while providing unconditional support?’

Asking and contemplating these questions can lead to a more transparent relationship between parents and adult children.

Hey, adults who are out of the house, your parents are most likely worried about you and wondering what you’re up to, so check in once in a while.

Call your mother.

You Can Spend 30 Hours in a Coffin with Your Partner and Win $600, Courtesy of Six Flags

Amusement park Six Flags has celebrated Halloween by daring their guests to spend 30 hours trapped alone in a coffin for the last couple years. People surprisingly jumped at the chance (and some of them actually made it!), so this year, they’re upping the ante and offering the challenge for couples.

That’s right – it’s a chance to test your relationship by spending the night trapped in a 6-foot by 5.4-foot space together!

Or, you know, if you’re up for a super adventure, you could also do it with a perfect stranger.

#sixflagscoffinchallenge

A post shared by David Joshua Rocha Jr. (@davidjoshuarocha) on

You’re allowed to bring pillows, sleeping bags, or whatever else you’d like, as long as everything fits inside and allows the lid to be closed. You’re also allowed to leave for designated bathroom breaks, to eat meals, and to use your phone (that last one is crap, if you asl me).

Each contestant is also issued a “Get Out of the Coffin Free Card” to use in exchange for a 6-minute breather.

There are mini-challenges throughout the main event, like fishing a mystery item out of a bucket, lying still while covered in worms, or other Fear Factor Lite experiences.

Both participants must complete these challenges together, though everyone does get one “Skip the Challenge Card” at the outside of the event.

The reward for surviving all of this intact – and hopefully still in a relationship – is $600 (to split), two 2020 season passes, and a Fright Fest prize pack.

There’s an online application if you’re interested, and if this year’s deadline is passed, well…there’s always next year.

Maybe you and your partner can spend the intervening months trying to survive hours on end pressed together in a tight space.

Remember, though, for the real challenge, you’ll have an audience.

So no funny business to pass the time.
