A mother has confessed to making a rude gesture behind her young child’s back, and people were NOT impressed.

On mum recently turned to the internet to reveal how she copes with her daughter’s frustrating behaviour.

The woman, who posted on MumsNet under the username Legbreak, admitted that she sometimes raises her middle finger behind her toddler’s back.

She clarified that the youngster never actually sees her do it and she only ever does it at home, but said her sister thought it was an “appalling” habit.

…to sometimes give toddler DD the finger behind her back?

Legbreak “She definitely doesn’t see and it makes me feel better and is always at home, not out and about etc. My DSis thinks it’s appalling.”

One mum wrote: “I don’t think it’s really acceptable TBH. She’ll eventually catch you (and do it to others).”

Another commented: “It’s a horrible thing to do to anyone, let alone a toddler.”

A third was also disgusted by the action, saying: I think that’s quite horrible… Would you like your toddler doing that behind your back when they’re adults and you’re calling them to ask for something? Guess not.”

Do you think it is OK to flick the bird at your kids behind their back?

  • Might not be my choice but sometimes it’s whatever gets you through the day but maybe stop so they don’t catch you because that could be heartbreaking for everyone.

  • So this mom states she does it behind her back, only at home, not out and about etc. Well this tells me that she knows it’s wrong. End of story.

  • I think she may be too confident that her daughter hasn’t seen.

  • It’s behind the little girls back, makes mum feel better, what is the issue? Yeah if the child does it to mum as a teen, same answer….mum won’t see it, teen feels better what’s the issue
