A mom from Oklahoma was left horrified when she received her daughter’s school picture day photos and noticed a glaring mistake. The two-year-old girl, who had followed all instructions and posed perfectly, appeared to be wearing a shirt with an inappropriate word on it. The word “a**hole” seemed to be printed across the front of her shirt, much to her mother’s shock.
The mom, 29-year-old Paige Ward, was exhausted after a long 60-hour shift at an urgent care clinic when she realized her daughter had picture day at school. In her tired state, she hastily chose a shirt for her daughter to wear, not realizing it said “sasshole” across the front. Ward admitted that she had used this shirt before without any issues, but she had completely forgotten about picture day.
When the pictures arrived a couple of days later, every photo showed her smiling daughter wearing a shirt that appeared to say “a**hole” due to the position of her arm covering the “s” in “sasshole.” Ward was overcome with intense embarrassment and thought, “Everyone is going to think I’m a horrible mother. How could I do this?”
However, despite her initial shock and embarrassment, Ward found the situation to be quite humorous, considering the chaotic year of 2020. Being overworked and underpaid, she didn’t have much time to dwell on the mistake. She shared the incident on TikTok, where it quickly went viral, garnering more than 15 million views. In the video, she joked, “If you ever thought you were a bad mom, at least you didn’t forget picture day and send your toddler to school in this.”
While most people found the story entertaining, there were also individuals who criticized Ward for dressing her daughter in a controversial shirt. They blamed her for the mistake, suggesting that it happened because of the “sasshole” shirt. However, the overwhelming response was one of amusement and understanding.
So, what do you think? Should Ward have dressed her daughter in that shirt? Or do you agree with the millions of others who see it as a harmless, funny moment that mom can cherish forever?
