Parents sometimes forget just how difficult it is being a child. Sure, the kids are in school all day having fun, but they're also learning — and learning is hard. Just because they're learning things that most parents already know (thanks to learning them in school when they were young), that doesn't mean children aren't stressed, frustrated, and overworked. School is hard work.
If anyone knows this, it's certainly the adorably grumpy first-grader in the below video. After picking her daughter up from school and realizing that she's a bit on the grumpy side, this mother decides to turn on her camera and record the conversation she has with her little girl.
"You know how hard it is to be in first grade," the little girl asks. "And how big it is to do stuff?"
"No," replies Mom.
"It is hard!" says the girl. "And I get grumpy."
The mom, surprisingly, doesn't laugh. She tries to make it a teachable moment, but really this is all about this super cute kid just being overwhelmed, grumpy, and tired from a long day at school.
"I'm grumpier than you," she says as she lays her head down on the passenger's side door.
I totally feel your pain, Grumpy First Grade Girl. Get some rest and make sure you're nice to Mommy!
