You’ve probably heard that “kids say the darndest things,” or at least remember the show of the same name (and are now awkwardly remembering it was hosted by Bill C*sby). Anyway, it’s true.
Kids have no filter, no concept of tact, and very small brains that can occasionally churn out some weird, creative, and brutally honest burns. Sometimes strangers find themselves on the receiving end of a spicy toddler burn, but usually it’s parents who get roasted. Here are some of the funniest, harshest, no-filter things kids have (allegedly) said to their moms and dads.

4-year-old: Can I have some of your candy?
Wife: I got this for Mother's Day.
4: You're only a mom because of me.
