A 2-year-old from Boston is going viral for her cheeky response to a simple question posed by her mom.
In a short clip on TikTok, Shelby Chiasson asked her daughter, “Are you a good girl or a bad girl?” Without missing a beat, Penelope confidently replies, “Bad girl.”
Chiasson told Newsweek that she was left speechless but “in the best way possible” to her daughter’s response. “I couldn’t help but laugh because it was so unexpected and funny. I think every parent can relate to those moments where their child says something that takes you completely by surprise in the most adorable way,” she said.
