Children ask about 73 questions per day - and can often leave their parents puzzled by their perspective on the world. People have been left in stitches over a seven-year-old's rather unfortunate drawing of a person washing their hands at a sink.
The drawing, which has been shared on Reddit by user wowprettyneat, has been upvoted more than 7,200 times - with many commenting on the inappropriate artwork. When viewed upside down, the drawing shows a pair of hands reaching out toward a tap. However, many Reddit users believe the cylinder-shaped tap looks more like a male's private parts than something you'd find at the kitchen sink.
The parent said: "This is upside down and it's actually how I first saw it. It's meant to be a drawing of washing hands. My seven-year-old drew it last year at school".
While most users couldn't help but laugh at the unfortunate drawing, others blamed it on the angle the child used.
One user said: "It's not a bad drawing but perspective really is everything."
Another user added: "If I was the parent, I would frame it and bring it up every time my child invited his significant other over."
A third user joked: "When it comes time for the sex talk, just pull this picture back out and explain."
One more user said: "This drawing opened my eyes to the fact I've never been someplace with cold water on the left and hot on the right. That must be why it looks shocking."
Others shared stories about their own accidental X-rated drawings and how they still 'haunt' them today.
One user said: "I drew a 'golf course' in second grade that looks like an erect penis.
"There was some sort of deal attached to said drawing where parents could have keychains, etc. of the drawing made.
"My mum has a magnet on her fridge of my penis drawing."
Another user added: "I would make fun of this but when I was seven I accidentally made a penis in Minecraft.
"It was supposed to be a fish, but mum wouldn't listen."
