Preschool staff wonder where little boy’s mother is – the answer makes everyone laugh

We all know kids can be very honest, sometimes too honest, and their stories can get a little wild. Jen, a TikTok user with the handle @daisy232713, recently shared a funny video from her son’s preschool teacher that showed just how unpredictable kids can be.

Jen posted the clip on TikTok, and it quickly went viral, with over 2.6 million views. The video started with Jen holding her hand to her forehead, shaking her head, as she commented on her son Charlie’s funny response.

The clip showed Charlie being asked by his preschool teacher, “Where is mom?” Charlie answered, “She’s sick.” The teacher followed up with, “Why is she sick? What does she have?” After a moment of thought, Charlie said, “She’s hungover.” The adults in the room started laughing, and Jen’s followers did too.

Jen made it clear in her post that she hadn’t been drinking the night before and that her son’s comment wasn’t true. It was just a funny misunderstanding, and everyone, including the teachers, found it amusing. Luckily, Jen and the preschool staff have a good relationship, and the situation was taken lightly.

Many parents can relate to moments like this. In the comment section, other parents shared their own funny and embarrassing stories about their kids. One mom wrote, “My child told a woman that she would have been happy if her father didn’t have to be in jail every weekend. He worked as a correctional officer.” Another shared, “My son told his teacher that I never wash myself. I always waited until he fell asleep before showering.”

Another parent said, “My child drew a wine glass and said it was my favorite drink in first grade. I don’t even drink wine.” And one more shared, “My son told his preschool teacher that I drink when I drive. What I drank: iced coffee from Starbucks.”

Jen’s story shows how kids can turn everyday moments into something memorable, even if it’s a little embarrassing.
