Today, I got my daughter's school pictures. Instead of smiling, she did the duck face. She's 6. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, while looking through my wedding photos, I realised my wife had done a duck face in every single one. FML
Today, I caught my little sister taking a selfie in the mirror with a fake nose piercing, peace sign, and a duck face. She's 12. FML
Today, I had to explain to my 18-year-old daughter why she can't pull a duck face pose for her driver's license. She still doesn't believe me. FML
Today, we got our family pictures back from the printers. I complained to my mom about the ones she picked. "Oh don't worry," she said. "I had them photoshop out your gut." I was talking about my smile. FML
Today, my 16-year-old daughter burned all her baby photos because they were unflattering and made her "look fat". FML
Ugh
Today, formal portraits of my entire class were posted online, with about five photos per person. As my mom was looking at them, she was commenting about how pretty all my classmates look. When she got to my photos, all she had to say was, "Ugh". FML
Today, my dad found the ugliest picture my mom has ever taken. I show it to her laughing. She said it looks like me. I looked again and it kind of does. FML
Today, my 6-year-old daughter threw a tantrum in the middle of a store, all because I wouldn't buy her a pushup bra. FML
Blunder
Today, I was working at a portrait studio and was taking pictures of a little girl, I kept telling the girl to stop making silly faces when she smiles because her eyes go cross-eyed. After the third time I said it her mom grabbed the little girl and left. Turns out, she was naturally cross-eyed. FML
Today, my mom took a picture of me. All she could say about the picture was, "At least your sister is pretty." FML

Kids these days. I recommend picture retake day. Unless you want something to laugh at in the future.

Be careful. It's only a matter of time before she gets a yolo tattoo on her lower back. It's a slippery slope from here.

Time for military school.

#11 Seriously making a stupid face isn't a reason to be sent to military school. It isn't like she is doing drugs and getting into fights.

#11 Im sure there's isnt a legal military school for kids that age

I wanna know what kind of things OP is letting her kid be around or watch to learn that. I mean she's 6! Hello guidance!
jw90 18
Take action now before it's to late and she conforms to the norms of today's society!

I can't believe they let her, but at least it will be an interesting picture. I've always wanted to do something silly for my school picture.

I would say something to the person who took her photo. They should have retaken it.
cheshirecat13242 32
The photographer probably couldn't re-take it because the kid was so cute.. And they couldn't stop quacking up

She is six! Let her express herself!

Hopefully it's just a phase and she grows out of it or see if she can have it retaken.

Surely I can't be the only one who thinks she was just making a funny face, as young children tend to do often? When I was around that age, I had a tendency to puff my cheeks when being photographed c:

When I was that age, I was missing one of my front teeth, so I didn't have to try to look silly!

At first she was like "YOLO!" but then she was like "Oh No..."

Just teach her that only ducks that quack make those faces not little girls
jerryj 27
I would be worried if it was the photographer or one of her teachers that asked her to do it.

Kids are so easily influenced:) it's actually kinda cute when little kids do it. You should try to get her out of that habit ASAP though.. Good luck OP
caitylynn05 16
Goodness!! If I would have ever done that my mom would have smacked the duck face right off my face! Not kidding!

I don't usually condone child abuse but in this case I'll allow it.
Ari1337 15
so you would abuse your kid because they made a stupid face for a picture? k then.
lexisJO 11
83, a pop in the mouth is definitely not abuse. Especially when deserved. My mom never hit me, but when I back talked I got popped on my mouth. And I learned. I would hope if I was 6 and made a stupid ass duck face for a school picture that she'd be pissed. The younger generation worries me.

please stop it while shes young we must kill this trend one kid at a time to make sure it when it's gone it will stay gone
