Mum shows her daughter the epic Little Mermaid set-up she arranged for her birthday & her response has people reeling
A MUM was left reeling by her daughter’s response to the elaborate Little Mermaid decorations she’d set up for her birthday.
She had gone all out with the surprise, arranging a balloon arch with blue and purple balloons, a giant Ariel picture, glittery curtains and a number 4 for her little girl’s big day.
When her daughter came out of the door, she looked the wrong way, before her mum told her to “look, over there”.
“What do you think?” her mum then asked her.
The little girl then gave the decoration a cursory glance before declaring, “No”.
Her mum’s disappointment could be heard in her voice in the TikTok video, as she let out a quiet but stunned “What?”
“I thought it was amazing, apparently she did not,” the mum captioned the clip.
And the comments section was quickly filled with other parents admitting they could relate, as they share their own tales of unimpressed children.
“I built my son a swing set the night before his 3rd birthday,” one wrote.
“In the morning he stepped outside, looked at it and said, ‘Where’s the surprise?'”
“I decorated my sons bedroom as Spiderman,” another revealed.
“He came in looked around and said ‘I wanted Superman’… he was wearing his spiderman pjs at the time.”
“Ugh my daughter is like this and it’s so hard to not get my feelings hurt,” a third admitted.
“I’d still do anything for her tho.”
While someone else suggested: “Next year she should just get to watch this with a cupcake without frosting.”
