A mom has shared a now-viral story about an unexpectedly funny exchange with her young son after he asked an innocent but hilariously awkward question about her wedding. While chatting, the curious child asked, “Mom, how much did your wedding cost?”
When she candidly replied, “It cost $20,000,” her son paused before delivering a zinger: “So Dad paid $20,000 for you?” The mom couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the cheeky remark, later posting the conversation online to share the humor of the moment.
The story quickly resonated with other parents, who related to the often blunt and unintentionally hilarious observations kids make. One commenter joked, “Kids have no filter. My daughter once asked if we bought her because ‘we liked her better than the others!’” Another added, “Sounds like your son is ready to negotiate his allowance already!”
Beyond the humor, the exchange sparked lighthearted debates about the costs of weddings. Some commenters marveled at the hefty price tag, while others shared their own experiences with costly nuptials. One user quipped, “If only $20,000 guaranteed a happily ever after!”
This playful moment is a reminder of how kids often deliver the perfect mix of honesty and comedy—without even trying. As the mom reflected on her son’s bold comment, she couldn’t help but agree it was one she’d never forget.
