When you have kids who are young and inquisitive, they can say really inappropriate things to people without knowing that they were being rude or possibly offensive.

It makes it look like she may be posting videos to adult sites while her child is at work, which most people wouldn\u2019t want their son\u2019s teacher to know about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that another teacher was there to clarify the young boy\u2019s comments by adding, \u201cI think she makes TikTok videos.\u201d The uncomfortable situation was a great invitation to chat with her son about what she does for a living. \u201cSo I have to have a conversation with my son about how he tells people what I do for work,\u201d she finished her video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.upworthy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/origin-271.png?w=1200&amp;quality=80\" alt=\"teacher, funny teacher, teacher posing, kindergarten, funny kids\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The funny video went viral, earning over 1.7 million views on TikTok, and inspired many people to share the times when their children had funny ways of explaining their careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy son told everyone that we were homeless (because we don\u2019t own our home, we rent),\u201d KBR wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI work in ortho.. my daughter told her teacher I steal people\u2019s knees bc she heard me talking to my husband about a knee replacement,\u201d Aingeal wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMy son told a teacher we were living in our car over the summer.

It\u2019s also a great warning to parents everywhere: if you aren\u2019t clear with your kids about what you do for a living, you may be setting yourself up for a very embarrassing misunderstanding.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSo I have to have a conversation with my son about how he tells people what I do for work.\u201d One of the great joys<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9093,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9092","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/716212935_1477782334382753_3456488873424332421_n.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9092","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9092"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9092\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9094,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9092\/revisions\/9094"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9092"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9092"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/humorsidehub.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9092"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
