“Hey mommy, wanna see a trick?”
“Sure honey, show me a trick.”
Kid runs around in circles to build up momentum, very deliberately crashes head first into the wall then falls down and starts crying.“…good trick, sweetie.” —LJGHunter

My son, at age 10…
I was trying to figure out why my shower was draining so slowly and wound up pulling the drain strainer out. Inside I found a bunch of brown paper goop. It took me a while to figure out what it was. I went to my son and asked him:
“Did you tear up a toilet paper tube into little pieces and cram those pieces down the drain in the shower?”
“Yes.”
“Ok. (*brain fries*) How about not?”
“Sure.” —scruit

When a sudden rainstorm hit our campsite, my 11 year old rescued a full water bucket from the rain and put it under the canopy to keep it dry. —gud_spelller

“When I caught him peeing in the doorway of his room at the age of 5. His reason? ” Cause I don’t want the kitty coming into my room.” —Mr_Frible

I was that kid. My parents took my siblings and I to a greenhouse garden; everyone was on their best behavior until I got the sudden urge to lick some foamy stuff off of a window. I was always a good kid, never caused any trouble but for whatever reason I had this compulsion to lick this foamy stuff off the window. Poison control had to be called, my parents were frantic, it was an ordeal. I was anaphylactic to milk at the time too, and I was definitely old enough to know better. —PeepDragon44

My 4 yo son just the other day spilled his water bottle on the floor. I told him to get paper towels to wipe it up. He does. Then I told him to throw the towels in the trash. He wrings them back out onto the floor before he throws them in the trash. —Jenkem_of_the_Masses

One time my Mom asked me what color my eyes were so I started looking around trying to see them. —Blanchdog

When my sister was 18 she was planning a trip to California after HS graduation. She spent several days calling banks to get the exchange rate for money because somehow she was absolutely convinced that regular US currency in Pennsylvania was not usable in California. She thought the banks were all lying to her that it was the same money. I am surprised she even FOUND California! —PearENormal

If I can be the kid who made my parents ask this question: I walked into a wall when I was five because I was walking around looking through binoculars backwards. Got these two massive ring bruises around my eyes. —unnaturalorder

When the Axe challenge was a thing. Apparently, you spray Axe over the front of your shirt, light it on fire, then take the shirt off. I think that’s it. Anyway, this genius gets his arm stuck or something as he pulled the shirt off inside out so, of course, the fire is now burning his face. He gets it off with the help of his friends and gets taken to the hospital with 2nd degree burns by his friend’s mother because he was staying over. That was a fun phone call to get at 3am. “Dad, I’m okay but I had an accident and Karen has taken me to the hospital to get treated. I told her it wasn’t a big deal but she made me call”. —count_frightenstein
