What is TikTok’s bad word bathroom challenge?
TikTok: pearlinebrown1What’s funnier than a toddler giggling and swearing? Pretty much nothing — and the internet can’t get over how adorable it is.
One of TikTok’s latest and most adorable trends is the ‘bad word bathroom challenge.’
As toddlers get left to their own devices in the bathroom, their parents give them permission to swear up a storm.
Not only have the results been superbly cute but also hilarious.
The internet is laughing hysterically at the ‘bad word bathroom challenge’
Though it would normally be considered neglectful to allow your child to swear, the ‘bad word bathroom challenge’ is well worth the risk.
As parents set up their phones in the bathroom, they begin recording their instructions. Letting their child know that they’re able to say as many swears without repercussions, the parent then walks out and closes the door behind them.
The ages of participating children vary, though most are fairly young. And though some kids can be seen hesitating, others took the challenge head-on.
In one viral video, a young girl can be heard giggling before she repeatedly says “b***h.” She then goes on to say “muthaf***a” in probably the most wholesome way it could ever be said.
Viewers of the TikTok even commented, saying “She made bad words so cute” and, “The giggles!!! I know she felt free.”
One viewer also mentioned how easy it is for children to retain what is said in the household — so it’s always important to be careful with your words.
In another viral ‘bad word bathroom challenge’ video, a young girl was placed on a stepping stool in front of the mirror.
Though she thoroughly enjoyed the minute of swearing, her mom said it was nothing new, which was why she’ll continue to allow her daughter to swear only in the bathroom.
As the girl says “stinkin’ a**” and “sh*t,” her mom can be heard in the background encouraging her to express herself.
Though it’s faux pas for children to swear, the ‘bad word bathroom challenge’ continues to go viral. What’s more, it’s telling of just how much swearing really goes on behind closed doors.
