Worse things have happened in the world.
What’s the most embarrassing thing your child has ever done to you?
Maybe they held up the queue in Tesco screaming the place down because you wouldn’t let them eat some raw eggs.
Or perhaps they told the waiter at brunch that you and daddy had been having some special parenting time that morning.
Either way, we’ve all been there.
And so has blogger mum Katherine Backstrom.
She took to Facebook to tell her own embarrassment story and how it actually ended up blagging her a free coffee.
Fair play.
The mum wrote that one day she was in Starbucks when her toddler ‘Nugget’ started pulling on her skirt.
She gave her order and then, suddenly, felt a breeze on her butt.
“It takes just a second for me to realize that my son has lifted my dress over his head, and is wearing it like a hat, with my granny panties and dimpled behind flashing for the entire world to see.
“But in that one second, he also spun around, and this is going to be hard to explain but: my son wrapped his head up like a dumdum with my dress and he was ABSOLUTELY WIGGING OUT because
“MOMMY I CANT BWEEEETH!!!!”
“All the while my butt is showing and the barista wants me to complete my order.”
Grim.
And only made grimmer by the fact that when Katherine managed to get her son out of her skirt, she discovered that her order had already been paid for by somebody else who, according to the barista, was “a fan.”
Bit creepy but okay.
