Embarassing (And Hilarious) Parenting Decisions That Went Viral

The Tale Of One Little Mushroom

Parents will go to great lengths to get their kids to listen to them, and the more creative the better. When kids are young, they’re impressionable, and can’t often tell when you’re being honest and when you’re concocting a completely outrageous lie that no one over the age of 7 could possibly believe. Well, for these kids, their parents set them on a journey that likely ended with a serious existential crisis.

The story goes that their parents convinced the two children that they had a third sibling that turned into a mushroom because they didn’t take a bath. They went as far as to add pictures of this mushroom sibling into the family photo album so their memory would last forever.
