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.

When I was in school they actually sent a copy of the proof along with a few others to choose from before you purchased them. What happened to that?!?

I think it would be cute on a 6 year old.

Keep the pictures to embarrass her with later.

I am not fond of duckface, but kids are gonna do it. Fishface too. Now if this had been a grown-up, I'd be going off because once you're over 14 or 15, it looks stupid. Really stupid. "Reeeeeely Stooopit!" stupid.

It'll only get worse if you don't stop it early on, OP.

It also kind of has to do with the way you raise her OP. Putting her in public school is not a good idea at all. There are very few "good" public schools out there, and people tend to teach others that kind of stuff. Including the teachers.

Was she making a duck face, or a kiss face (puckered lips)? There is a big difference and one looks way better than the other!

did she also throw a tantrum in the store last week because you didn't buy her a training bra?
