A mum was left mortified after her son raided her Ann Summers advent calendar and dished out the x-rated chocolates in the playground.
The woman was left red-faced after her son, Luca, emptied the explicit calendar and went off to school with 24 penis-shaped chocolates to share with his pals.
The mum's embarrassment was compounded when Luca's teacher called to let her know that he had been spotted handing out the explicit treats.
Posting on a parenting Facebook page, the mum wrote: "Hows everyones day going … better than mine I hope
"So teacher gives us a little ring to note that my Luca has been handing sweets out to his pals at break … (chocolate ) obv I laughed and said right he's 5, it’s chocolate not drugs.
"(But)…. Not just any chocolate ….. he’s only cleared it out of my Ann Summers advent and took little penis' to school …why do these kids do this to me."
More than 3,000 people commented on the hilarious mishap with one mum saying you can always rely on your kids to "throw you under the bus".
One said: "The teachers should have thanked you for the laugh and he should definitely get a certificate for going ‘above and beyond."
Another commented: "Oh my word this might be the best thing I've read on here. As a fellow teacher be assured he definitely brightened up their day."
A third said: "You can always rely on your kids to throw you under the bus! Especially at primary school, you have no secrets!!!"
"Oh wow sorry but I am rolling around the floor laughing this is hilarious god bless him, what a story for when he is older wedding speEch later on in life," said another.
Another chuckled: "That is fabulous. Hopefully all the evidence will be eaten."
