Awkward Moments with Children!

I read something about children this morning that brought this funny memory to mind...
My mom told me that when I was six years old, I attended a poolside BBQ party with her. It was held at the home of woman who was a friend and customer at Mom's beauty shop.
I was trying to behave in a very grown-up manner and fit in with the adults. When we walked up to greet the hostess (who was wearing her swimsuit), I politely observed "You have big fat legs just like my Aunt Jane."
Do you have any funny childhood moments to share, about yourself or someone else?

LOL... I have one but I think that I was really young or at least I'm hoping lol. It must have been around Halloween and my grandmother was sitting in the front seat with my dad. I told her that she looks just like a witch! I'm mortified now lol... but I'm pretty sure that I meant it as a compliment!!

Out of the mouths of babes
When I was about 4 years old, on a day out, I visited the gents toilets with my dad and my uncle Roger (name changed to protect the terminally embarrassed). I was stood between them at the urinal and after a few seconds I proclaimed very loudly "Dad, why is yours much bigger than Uncle Roger's?"
Uncle Roger still hates me!!

Thanks @WorDazza! I laughed a little too loud at that!
Little children are usually taught to be very honest, never lie! But when they are just being honest, they sometimes cause trouble for folks. Oh, the irony! Ha.

@BloggerDi Well indeed. I suppose at that age we don't appreciate that there is a preferable alternative to such brutal honesty. It's called saying nothing

Nothing like being direct. I bet she was embarrassed. Both Mom and the woman.

The woman laughed, but I'm sure she was embarrassed. My mother was horrified but I didn't get in trouble. Thanks for your comment @GardenGerty.
your poor mother.

When my daughter was small, she asked me why I was putting on makeup. I said, "Oh, to look pretty." She replied, "Don't do no good."
