Indeed, parents, teachers and babysitters often love sharing the adorable, or unintentionally hilarious things they hear from children on a regular basis.

But every now and again, children might say things which aren't exactly adorable.

Some might even find what they have to say a little creepy.

Redditor o0_Oo_ was curious to hear some of the creepiest things others heard from children, leading them to ask:

"What's the creepiest thing your child ever said to you?"

"Him: I don’t know where a volcano is."

"Me: so we good?"

"Him: for now…"

"The other one:"

"Him: too bad the babysitter died."

"Me: no she didn’t bud, she’s just not here today."

"Him: or she’s in the freezer (while staring at the freezer)."

"Me: you’re pretty creepy sometimes bud."

"Him: just smiles"

It's alive!

"My mother died a few weeks ago."

"My son, 5, and I were awake early about 3 days after her death and he was playing with the stuffed animals in his room when he came out screaming and crying hysterically."

"This never happens, he’s a very tough boy for 5."

"Now I was freaked asked him what was wrong and he was legit terrified."

"I had never seen him like this before of after."
