If you’re a parent, an aunt, a cousin, a sibling, a grandparent (or basically a human being), you know toddlers can be a real pain in the ass. When kids are little, they’re adorable. They don’t talk, they don’t go through the garbage, they don’t try to open every cabinet and drawer in your kitchen. But, as they get a bit older, they reach that stage in life most people would refer to as “the devil years.” Toddlers, while sometimes still adorable, are extremely difficult to handle. Not only are they always up to no good, they’re way too young to understand social cues and manners. This, of course, could be why people claim toddlers are the “most honest individuals,” seeing as they don’t understand being “polite.” And, while their brutal honesty is sometimes comical, they can also be just plain mean. People on Twitter have begun sharing their experiences with toddler insults and, while they’re from someone who’s pint-sized, they still hurt deep down inside us all.
Toddler insults are just…whew. She hurts my feelings low key. ? Today's tantrum ended with "AND I DON'T LIKE YOUR BRAIDS!"

I was messing with one of my youngest nieces once like "haha, that's why you have to go to school tomorrow" and she hit me with "haha, that's why you gotta go to work tomorrow." Killed me.

I big chopped my hair all over again. My 5yo daughter said "you like your brother. But that's ok, I guess."

I moved interstate to be closer to my family, and my nephew told me recently "Things were better before you were here."
Oof.

I usually watch super hero movies with my nephew. I asked him to see Thor and he told me "Aunty, I think it's time you get your own friends." ?

Obviously, the real bottom line about toddlers can be summed up in one, brief sentence.
Toddlers have no chill whatsoever
