I've just been fat shamed by a 4 year old

[Mooey89]

'Why do mummies have to have such huge massive fat tummies?'

Along with helpful cunt exMIL this morning chirpily 'I am a bit worried about how much you want another baby, are you sure you aren't too fat to conceive now?'

Luckily last week I had an epiphany and I have been back to my diet 100% this week, but I do have 4 stone to lose.

Please can you cheer me up with similar tales of child honesty???

I'm just focusing on the time aged 6 that I told DM that she smelt like wet dog... 🙈

My DD says I'm much nicer to sleep with because Daddy's too scrapey (his chin) and he's "like bones next to me"

So there you have it...he's a scrapey chinned skeleton and I'm nice and soft.

You've just reminded me of when we'd just got back in touch with DS1. I asked DS2 what he thought of him (DS1 is extremely underweight for medical reasons), he said, "he's like a very thin dinosaur. " 😳

DS asking very loudly "why is that man sad?" pointing to an older woman with deep wrinkles and slightly drooping skin (i.e. "normal" looking elderly face!)

These are soooo good!

My 3 year old said "mamma boobs like an octopus head"
So dangly, loose and deflated looking

Also can't believe your MIL said that! I conceived the first time we tried when I was 18 stone.

You can do it though OP, I've lost 3 stone in 3 months so it doesn't have to take long. You could be at or near target for Christmas

Babysitting my nephew from a much more rural area than us. We live In a suburb of a city. Took him to Tesco when he was 3 and while I was stacking the trolley he cheerfully asked another lady (wearing a hijab) if she was dressed as a ghost for Halloween

Luckily she wasn't bothered and She couldn't have been nicer and happily explained that she likes to wear those clothes for her belief and added that she wouldn't choose to wear his Thomas the Tank engine top but thought it looked great on him

Not sure it sunk in though as he still chatted about Halloween costumes for the rest of the shopping trip

When I was about 4 I went on holiday including a long bus trip with my DM. Sitting in front of us, with her baby, was a very fat woman (and this was the 1970s when obesity was a rarer sight).

I indicated to DM that I had something important to say. She said shhh. It was a very important observation Mummy, about that lady in front of us. Shh darling. I got more and more insistent that I had to tell her something and she got more and more frantic to shut me up because apart from the immediate rudeness we were going to be stuck in the holiday location with this woman for two weeks, which would be mega-awks, as we didn't say in the seventies.

By god knows what unholy tactics of bribery, distraction and threats DM kept me quiet until we were off the bus and out of earshot of the big woman, and told me that now I was allowed to speak. "MUMMY THAT LADY IN FRONT OF US. HER BABY LOOKED EXACTLY LIKE A BANANA!"

The baby was in a bright yellow babygro with brown patches on the elbows and knees...

My brother on a train when he was 4, when a huge bloke got on.

DB: "That man is big and fat. {to man} I'm going to call you Mr Fatty"
Mum:
Man:

Kids tell it how it is don't they - they simply describe what they see . Can make you cringe though as I remember being on a train when a load of football fans got on and one was large and drinking beer and my kid said ' mummy that man is fat because he drinks too much beer '

I think that most young children will comment about fat without realising that fat=bad for many adults.
For many of them, they see a fat tummy and think 'soft and cuddly' like mum or dad's tummy.

These are so funny! Just remembered we where in big public toilet, i was on my period and got a tampon out it was in a green packet . My son shouts why have you brought a green bean to the toilet , im trying to put it in mammy why are you putting thats green bean in the toilet? What are you doing to that green bean!! Im saying oh no its not a green bean whilst thinking what must people be thinking i am doing in this toilet. He also in family changing room shouted oooooo thats s big willy when daddy was getting changed. My husband trying to get dressed and saying ssssh ect cue more but it is a big willy, it is it is a big willy. He also ran up to a random 16 year old lad shouting daddy daddy! Im saying no no thats not daddy. We live eith his daddy hes 36 and looked nothing like this 16 year old.

are you really wearing that mummy it's a little bit not nice isn't it?'

Oh bless! A career as a diplomat awaits.

My 4yo to a transgender friend... Are you a girl or a boy because you have a boy's face but a girl's hair?

Give my friend her due, she explained that she didn't think there was such a thing as 'girl's hair' but that she was a girl. It actually turned into quite a bonding experience in the end. My friend often gets very upset by people's comments but not when it's a four year old stating what they can see.

We were at the beach and his little friend looks at the left side of my tummy "whoa look at those tears in your skin!!" (My stretch-marked side)
DS goes , proudly, "I did that!!"

Oh my word, what a charmer!

Dgd, aged five and a half years, to me last week...
"Grandma, I hope you don't get any bigger, or you won't fit into the car!"

When me and DT were toddlers mum took us on the bus. The local and well known "Lady of the Night" was on the bus with a full set of make up on. Me and DT kept saying "mummy, mummy look at that lady's face!" My poor mum. She kept saying "yes isn't she beautiful". . Still see the lady to this day and this must have been 23 years ago!

I had my hair cut, coloured, blow dried, the works. Felt like a millionaire with my swish hair. Walk to pick my DDs up at school. DD2, age 7, gives me a horrified look and exclaims, "What did you do to your hair?!"

6 year old looking at my bump 'your baby must be soooo fat'

Well at least she blamed it on the baby

Thank you so much for all these!
My favourites are the ghost, the long boobs, and the new top that was a little bit not nice!

The kids I was babysitting wanted to know if I was having a baby as I had very large 'bookies'. they were 8 and 6 at the time. I was 15 and mortified.

These are hilarious!

Many years ago, in the late 70's, I took my five year old sister into town on the bus (I was 17). A young man in full punk get-up got on at the next stop, much to my sister's delight: "Look, LOOK! It's a punk, a REAL punk!". I was desperately trying to distract her when she said: "Can I stroke the punk?"

To his credit, the guy laughed and laughed and let her touch his (bright green, spiky) mohican. She talked about nothing else for weeks.

DS could only say two words, yum yum and sticker when he started this, by pointing at any kind of skin mark, freckle, mole, spot, visible vein etc. before announcing "Ooh sticker!" and trying to peel it off. I haven't been encouraging his speech as much as I should since then!

I have random rude adults instead of rude children, both comments relating to me after giving birth.

1. An elderly woman asked me if I was in labour when she met me in the lift two days after my emcs.
2. One of the other women's partners on the postnatal ward asked the woman loudly why I was walking strangely - I had had a third degree tear during dc2's birth.

In the barbers yesterday my four year old said pretty loudly see that man over there he has the same hairstyle as the barber.

They were both bald 😂
