Has a child you don’t know ever mistaken you for their mom or dad?

[i][c=#BF0080]I took my son to his appointment and as soon as I walked in a really cute little girl about my youngest’s age(3-4) ran to me saying “hi mommy” and grabbed my hand 😳 I figured it was just that the mom prob had long dark hair too. But the whole time I was there she was talking to me and calling me mommy and mama even though I told her I wasn’t her mom 😐 I think she was with her grandma, but she didn’t speak English. I was really surprised the child thought I was her mom, b/c she was Asian and I’m not.

Has anything like that happened to you? [/c][/i]
It's worse when you're a guy, and they grab your hand in a crowded place, look up and see you're not their Dad, and start screaming hysterically.

If any kid ever calls me dad I'll be running faster than they do.😂

@MellyMel22 The guy was pretty doggone special. We always played jokes on one another.

@Fungirlmmm [i][c=#BF0080]How sweet 😅[/c][/i]
Did you ask her if she's from Tennessee?

Once :) I used to be a nanny and a beautiful little girl in the park came and deposited herself on my lap and held onto me :) Her Dad told me her Mom looked like me .

Nah but I do have a little cousin who has a tendency of calling me daddy. His dad dark skin and I'm light skin so I don't understand why he doesn't get it. Little weird fella

@11knaves11 [i][c=#BF0080]Awh.. Maybe it’s just a masculinity thing he feels that’s similiar. [/c][/i]

@MellyMel22 likely

Not like that. Only accidental mis-identity. Once I was in a store and a little girl was looking around not paying attention to where she was walking when I was walking by her she reached back looking for her mom and grabbed my hand. Then she looked up in horror realizing her mistake and quickly dropped her had and ran to her mom. 😆

@Danez [i][c=#BF0080]Awh.. 😂[/c][/i]

Maybe she's mixed? Maybe her mom was your Italian look alike and her dad was an Asian Mikowee? 🤔
MellyMel22 · F
@Reject [i][c=#BF0080]Yeah, I mean I’m sure mommy and mama are two words she must know hearing the kid call the mom those things.. My 8 year old found it funny though 🤣

Haha.. I know what you’re saying.. I honestly thought you were mixed long before hearing you say it. [/c][/i]

@MellyMel22 That reminds me of how happy Kay is whenever a precious child she knows calls her mommy despite her not being their mom. ♥️

What gave me away? 🤭
MellyMel22 · F
@Reject [i][c=#BF0080]Everyone loves her, I’m sure all kids do too 😁

I’m not sure to be honest, but I did think so 😅[/c][/i]

There’s a kid at my building’s daycare that points at me and says “daddy” every time in the hallway.
MellyMel22 · F
@SW-User [i][c=#BF0080]Oh how awkward 😳[/c][/i]
SW-User
@MellyMel22 he must do it to the guys with beards. I just answer “nope” and move on my way. The kid doesn’t seem to mind.
MellyMel22 · F
@SW-User [i][c=#BF0080]Awh haha[/c][/i]
Awww 🖤. You just have natural mommy energy.

I was told as a child, I mistook my aunty as my mom, many times.

But then again, my mom and her sisters look very much alike🤷🏾‍♂️
MellyMel22 · F
@BigbangFACTS [i][c=#BF0080]This little girl stayed with me about 40 mins total 😳

Well that makes sense if they looked alike..[/c][/i]
KaysHealingPath · 36-40, F
Lol 😂 that’s funny
Yeah but then they get a good look at me and realize I’m not their mom and run away lol 😂
MellyMel22 · F
@KaysHealingPath [i][c=#BF0080]Haha.. That’s what I thought was gonna happen to me 😂My 8 year old thought it was so funny and her grandma kept smiling so I think she did too 🤭[/c][/i]

No, but that’s kind of fun and funny.
MellyMel22 · F
@MrsKatherineArch [i][c=#BF0080]Yeahhh 😆[/c][/i]
MrsKatherineArch · 41-45, F
Well, I hope the kid found mommy. @MellyMel22
MellyMel22 · F
@MrsKatherineArch [i][c=#BF0080]I think I passed her by the back rooms 🙂[/c][/i]
vetguy1991 · 51-55, M
No it never has
MellyMel22 · F
@vetguy1991 [i][c=#BF0080]What would you do?[/c][/i]
vetguy1991 · 51-55, M
@MellyMel22 try to tell the kid I'm not his or her dad, then try to find the kid's parents
MellyMel22 · F
@vetguy1991 [i][c=#BF0080]Good plan.. [/c][/i]
