WEIRD THINGS PARENTS FIND IN THEIR CHILD’S ROOM
(November, 2024) Bored Panda asked parents, ‘What’s the weirdest thing you’ve ever found in your kid’s room?” Some of the responses:
– “I found a hamster. We never bought the kids a hamster. Turns out, a neighbor’s hamster got in the house.”
– “Oregano, I don’t know why he’s baking up there.”
– “5-year-old son’s room had been getting smellier. Did some searching and found a ‘nest’ in the back of his closet. He had taken 2 eggs out of the fridge, put them in a little nest he made out of his shirts, and put a plastic dinosaur on top of the eggs to attempt to hatch baby dinosaurs.”
– “I work in a teen rehab center. My coworker once found a ziplock bag full of hair, all sorts of colors and length, in a new kid’s room. Kid says its his collection of hair for when he does his voodoo rituals.”
– “My aunt once found a box of live hand grenades under my cousin’s bed. Turns out he and a group of friends broke into the armory of a nearby army base. He was 12.”
– “Found a wedding ring in my 9-year-old son’s Pokemon card box. A kid at school really wanted one of my son’s cards, so he took his mom’s ring to trade. I had lost my ring a few months before, so my boy thought it would make a good Xmas present for me. The ring has been returned.”
– “My friend’s mom found his box of dead baby raccoon skulls in his closet. I stopped hanging out with him pretty soon after.”
– “Just walked in from work one day and noticed my $2500 dollar gaming system and desk was missing. I was about to freak out when I saw that my 10 year old and 16 year old had moved it, and the entire contents, up to their room. Thought it about it for a few moments, not even upset when I noticed how much more room it gave me downstairs. I let them keep it.”
– “My parents found a crack pipe in my room when I was in like 3rd grade…I found it on the playground and thought it was a treasure.”
– “I found a green piece of folded paper on the floor of my 11-year-old daughter’s room. I opened it and the only thing written on it was ‘CHUCK NORRIS.'”
