If your kid was given the chance to say whatever they want, without repercussions, what would they say? This is the question a recent social media challenge poses for parents to little ones. The concept is simple: Parents instruct their kids to say anything within the span of 20 seconds. In return, they can’t get in trouble. Once the kids accept, the parents leaves the room while recording them on their phone. When a dad named Jay tries this with his daughter, Tatum, he does not get the results he expects.
If you’ve ever seen anyone trying this challenge before, then you likely know that it can go a lot of ways. But according to the comment section of this video, it’s surprisingly rare for it to go in the direction that Tatum takes her 20 seconds. In this short time, this sweet girl gives herself some of the best affirmations I’ve ever heard!
“I’m a queen. I’m a young queen! I’m a superstar!” Tatum confidently exclaims. “I’m beautiful, I’m smart, and I love myself! I’m a Barbie, and I look pretty.”
