The Many Ways In Which A 4-Year-Old Might Insult Her Mom In A Single Morning

It's totally endearing how kids have no filters and are brutally honest all of the time, isn't it?

In this funny video, Johanna Stein goes through her day as "Momhead," exhausted and seemingly ambivalent as her daughter repeatedly asks such flattering questions as, "Are you gonna make yourself pretty today or are you gonna look like you always do?" and "Can I have your iPad when you die?"

The mom and author of How Not to Calm a Child on a Plane and Other Lessons in Parenting from a Highly Questionable Source calls it "Ways In Which My 4-Year-Old Has Insulted Me (true story)."

Well ... kids do say the darndest things, don't they?

Good Housekeeping(02 of06)

Their Own Biggest Critics(03 of06)

This Woman's Work(05 of06)

Work is not the touchy subject it’s made out to be: Most women feel confident in how dedicated they are to work (65 percent of young moms and 66 percent of older moms), and most don’t question their personal work decisions either (73 percent of young moms and 68 percent of older moms). (credit:Alamy)

Guess What?(06 of06)

Moms are happy being moms: Most have rarely or never been jealous of the freedom their non-parent friends have, and they don’t question their parenting styles. (credit:Alamy)
