Mom’s goal was to make a “core memory” with her girls, something she most definitely did. It’s just not the kind she anticipated. As the beautiful butterflies started to make their way out of their mesh container, one landed on Mom. She managed to get the winged insect onto a branch, but it didn’t stay there very long…

It was in that moment that Mom learned her youngest is “not a butterfly girlie.” Even with the original sound muted, we can practically hear that little girl screaming. While folks do empathize with her being so afraid, they’re also finding the relatable humor in the moment as well.

Sure, butterflies are beautiful. But this little girl isn’t the only one who is not a fan. In reply to Mom’s video, a former teacher admits that doing butterfly releases with her class always resulted in a variety of reactions.
“As a former preschool teacher we did this every year — mixed results every single time!” they write. “Core memory in one kid — nightmare level unlocked by another.”
