School photo day, while your kids are still young and innocent, is typically nothing short of adorable.
What could be better than a professional photo of your child posing proudly in front of a blown-up image of their schoolโs logo? Itโs something to hang above the mantelpiece forever, even when your kids are old enough to find it embarrassing.
But, as many of us parents will know, school photos and young children donโt always mix well.
There are terribly-timed tantrums, messy lunches that just have to fall before camera time, that one kid that flat-out refuses to smile, and the other that smiles so broadly they look like a serial killer.
But when one mom received photos of her child to choose from, she knew her little girl wasnโt to blame for what she foundโฆ she was.
Paige Ward had sent her daughter to school in a t-shirt that read โsassholeโ along the front.
Weโll repeat that again โ thatโs โsassholeโ. The sort of word youโd probably have to do a double-take at anyway, considering the word itโs deliberately supposed to read like.
As is hardly surprising, when Paige received her daughterโs school photos, she discovered that the โSassholeโ t-shirt without the โSโ looked very rude.
What made matters worse was that Paigeโs daughter looks nothing short of adorable in her school photo, beaming innocently at the camera.
Unfortunately, Paige knew that she couldnโt buy these photos โ unless she wanted to give visitors a laugh.
She shared a video to TikTok explaining her awkward situation, writing in the caption:
โIf you ever thought you were a bad mom. At least you didnโt forget picture day, and send your toddler to nursery in this.โ
The video went viral in no time at all, with 11 million views, nearly 500,000 likes, 80,000 shares and 8,000 comments.
Some people commented that, being parents themselves, they were going to deliberately send their kids to school like this. Someone else wrote:
โThatโs not a bad moment, thatโs a great moment because your daughter is going to have that vibe when she gets older.โ
Others were confused about why Paige had sent her child to school in a suggestive t-shirt, questioning whether the photo was actually funny โ because this wasnโt really a t-shirt design fail; rather, what the t-shirt had been hinting at all along.
When asked why someone would ever give their kid a t-shirt like that, Paige jokingly replied:
โBECAUSE IโM A BAD MOM. And it says โSassholeโ.โ
Paige then posted a series of videos responding to people who couldnโt see the funny side of her mistake.
One of them included a screenshot of a comment berating her for buying giving her daughter the t-shirt, to which Paige posted a dance, which prompted hundreds of users to jump to her defense.
Another video featured the question: โHave you been attacked by Karen yet? I would order prints๐โ
In response to this, Paige and her daughter posed menacingly to AC/DCโs โBack In Blackโ.
Moms have every right to dress their children how they want to, and while we think Paigeโs mistake is hilarious, weโre surprised she didnโt see it coming!
If you havenโt seen her giggle-worthy TikTok video yet, weโve shared it below for you to laugh at!
