40+ Hilarious Tweets That Show How Kids Misunderstood Simple Concepts

When you're growing up, you have a lot to learn. At some point, you heard about everything you know for the very first time! Once you're an adult, though, these concepts are mastered as children and you think of them as simple concepts. You'd be surprised how many kids misunderstood things the first time they heard them. You probably have some stories of your own in your family, too!

Technically Correct

Young kids can't always explain what their parents do for a living with efficiency unless it's a popular job title like a firefighter or nurse.

Since these parents worked in IT, we're guessing their job was a little complex for a young child to wrap their head around. Plus, it seems like they took the question that people were asking rather literally. Either way, they were technically correct in their answer.

Calling for Help

There are some things that are inherently scary no matter how old you are. However, they can be especially daunting when you're just a kid. These two siblings jumped into action when their mom was having a health problem.

It seems that they knew exactly what to do when someone was hurt, too! Naturally, you'd assume anyone involved was worried, so this kid called back to let them know how she was doing, likely letting another operator know.

Here to Support

When you watch an old sitcom, you usually hear canned laughter. There were some shows, though, that relied on a live studio audience for these reactions.

This kid didn't quite understand that a live studio audience meant an audience that was in the studio. Since they misunderstood the concept in the way that they did, they at least wanted to support the shows that they liked. It's kind of cute honestly!

Dad, No!

When you look at your driver's license, there's some basic information about you that's standard to find there. For instance, your birthday is there to note your age.

Of course, when you're a kid, you don't have to worry about passing a driver's test. As for this little one, though, a little explanation goes a long way. Do you know what else has dates on it? Food that's going to go bad. That led to a tragic misunderstanding.
