Whether or not we’d care to admit it, we’re all self-conscious. Moms, as confident and strong as they may be, are no exception to this.

In fact, they may be a little too self-conscious and harsh on themselves. However, the struggles and tolls of pregnancy and motherhood are no joke, and as a result lots of moms sometimes feel a little less than confident and proud with their appearance.

But hey, being a mom ain’t easy! You push a child out of you, nurse him, raise him, and maintain your house and marriage and tell me that you still have time to hit the gym, dress yourself in the finest clothes, and wear makeup everyday!

The truth is, moms are typically a little too preoccupied to maintain their ideal level of upkeep. And, honestly, they can do without the reminders. The funny thing is that more often than not, the people reminding mom that “she isn’t what she used to be”…are their own kids!

Kids’ hilarious inability to filter themselves often yields pretty hysterical results, and today we’ll be looking at the times in which these moms’ kids were caught “harmlessly body shaming” their moms.

Trust us, these kids meant no harm in uttering these innocuous sentences, but–damn. Those words cut deep.

You’ve seen me in a dress before.’ He touched the knit fabric and said, ‘You look ahhhmazing … like you’re going to have a baby.’ — Elly Lonon, Buggin Word

“Recently, my daughter saw a woman who was heavy in the grocery store parking lot and giggled. I reminded her that the woman wasn’t much bigger than I am and she rolled her eyes.

At the end of the class, she looked at me and said, ‘Mom, I can’t believe how much stuff you can do.’ I looked at her and said, ‘Sometimes heavy means STRONG, little girl.’” — Christine McDevitt Burke, Keeper of the Fruit Loops
