As a parent of 2 and an aunt to ... um ... like... nine (don't quote me on that number) I can assure you that kids are freaking creepy. They just are. It's not always bad creepy necessarily, but I swear the younger they are, the higher the creep factor.
Some people believe that young children are still "connected to the universe" in ways that older kids and adults aren't. Some people believe that as kids get older they just stop saying all the weird crap that pops into their heads. I'm not an expert on childhood spiritual connections, but I've got a pretty decent grasp of the high art of spouting weird crap... so either one seems feasible to me.
So tell us, what's the creepiest thing you've ever heard a kid say?
You guys, kids are creepy. If you're a parent, you probably know this - or maybe you just were the creepy kid - like me! Remember guys, all of the "quirky" "dark" celebs we love were probably creepy kids at one point. So we're not saying creepy kids stay creepy - just that we really need to acknowledge their existence. And maybe get to some healthy redirecting. I mean, it's not their fauly they're creepy. They just are.

Parents of Reddit, what is the creepiest thing a friend of your kid has done at your house?
Brace yourself, you're about to enter a world of entitlement, lack of boundaries, inappropriate activities, and at least one or two pet murders. Yeah... kids are terrifying.
