My son pointed at a bald guy in the cereal aisle and said really loud 'Daddy why does that man have no hair on his head but hair on his face' and I've never wanted to disappear so bad in my life. The dude was cool about it but I turned about 50 shades of red. Learned that day that kids have zero filter and honestly it's hilarious looking back on it.
Oh man, I've been there. My kid did something similar at the grocery store once. The key is not making a huge deal about it so the kid doesn't realize they said something awkward. Just keep shopping like nothing happened.
This is peak parenting right here. You can't even be mad because it's pure honesty from a kid's perspective. Did you at least laugh about it later with your wife?
Oh man, the grocery store call-outs are the best and worst at the same time. Kids just say what they're thinking with zero filter. That poor bald guy probably has heard way worse though.
Kids are ruthless with their observations haha. At least he was just curious and not being mean about it. Those grocery store moments are the ones you'll be laughing about for years.
The unfiltered honesty of kids never stops, man. You handled that better than most of us would have in the moment. Gotta love the cereal aisle logic.

Kids have zero filter and it's hilarious and mortifying at the same time. The bald guy probably got a kick out of it though. Most people understand kids just say what they see.
