​"Mom, ate my sister"​

35 year old Raghu describes one of the most hilarious, yet shocking things his 4 year old son told him.

One day after returning from work, Raghu saw his little one crying inconsolably. "I slowly carried her in my arms and made her quiet and then asked her what happened," says Raghu.

"Mom ate my baby sister," he recalled his son telling him.

Later when he asked his wife about it what followed later erupted the entire house in laughter.

His little son noticed the pregnancy bump on her mother and asked her what happened. Her mother explained to her, in a fun way, that there is a baby sister inside it and hearing this the little one cried loudly saying, "if she was my sister, why did you eat her!"

​"Dad, do you need money"​


40 year old Manav had tears in his eyes when his son came up to him and slowly asked, "Dad, do you need money? I can make you some."

He was holding a scissor and some papers with 10, 20, 50 written all over it.

The little boy had seen his father looking into his wallet which appeared to be empty. So he thought to help his father by cutting out some money for him.

​"Is mom your daughter?"​


34 year old Daisy recalls a shocking and weird incident that happened recently in her family.

Her 5 year old son asked his father, "is mom your daughter?"

My husband was taken aback, recalls Daisy. We then understood that the kids my son plays with have sisters in their families and since we do not have any daughter, he could not establish that relation with anyone else other than me.

"I don't want to stay here, please get me married"


One day I shouted at my younger one, recalls Drishti. She was being mischievous and I was busy with an important chore, the mother adds.

My daughter was quiet immediately and I did not notice this because I was entirely drowned in my work.

In the evening when her dad came my daughter silently went to him and said, "I don't want to stay here, mumma yelled at me. I want to marry and go to another house."

​"Mumma, you want a head massage?"​


I was lying on bed that day when my 5 year old son walked up to me with a bottle of balm in his hand, recalls 32 year old Aradhana.

He took my head and put it on his lap and gently scooped balm from the bottle and started putting it on my head.

Until then we had never seen him doing it. He didn't even know where the balm was. But after seeing me in pain he looked for the balm bottle and brought it to me.

​"Cute" boy holding placard asking Virat Kohli's permission to take his daughter on date angers netizens​

​"Mom, did your throat hurt when I was born"​

"My 6 year old daughter was drawing random things with her crayon when all of a sudden she asked me if I had a sore throat pain after she came out of me," recalls Rajni.

"I asked her mindlessly why I would have a sore throat," remembers the mom. To this her daughter answered back, "that's how kids are taken out from the mummy, right?"

"No, my throat did not hurt!"
