MUDDY MUCKER
I was left speechless when my daughter COVERED her face in mud and leaves during a winter walk but parents slammed it
SOME of us learn the ways of the world through experience.
For this 5-year-old girl, she learned how mucky mud can get as she enjoyed the park in Glenrothes, Scotland.

Her mother, Stacey Mitchell wrote: "My 5-year-old daughter thought it would be funny to cover her face in mud when we’re trying to go shopping."
The 20-second video shows her son and daughter getting fully immersed in the muddy park.
In the viral video Stacey says: "I am done."
"I was planning to go to Matalan but I don't think thats kinda possible now."

As her daughter Olivia then threw some muddy leaves in the air the mother laughed as she said: "I can't even look at you for laughing."
They slipped around in the puddles, muddy leaves and giggled with glee.
Despite having to rearrange her shopping trip, busy mum Stacey did not seem too fussed as she wrote on : "Totally right I don’t mind them getting dirty at all."
Stacey shared her kids mud fight as she went live where Olivia and her brother threw mud at each other and at a younger child who was luckily protected by a rain sheet in a buggy.
Most commenters praised Stacey for letting her kids enjoy playing as they said: 'love it kids being kids' and called her the 'best mom ever.'

While some called the kids antics 'gross', saying: "That's disgusting and unsanitary!"
"I doubt anyone in Matalan would notice." Said another.
Most focused on the memories made that day, saying: "Lol. A perfect childhood moment. Good for you to let her and not get so mad. Of course there are times and those are educate lessons. Hopefully you joined in too make a bigger memory and experience. Lol so cute. Thanks for sharing!!!"
Some could also see the financial benefits, saying: "Hahahaha, free spa treatment!"
One wrote: "It washes off and the memories all last a life time. Parenting done right good on you Stacey."
"What a great mom! Letting kids be kids. Kids living it up." Many agreed.
Another commenter was concerned about the coat saying: "I hope they have fun washing the mud out that white jacket."
But Stacey explained that it: "Came out very easily."
One commenter shared their concerns, saying: ";There is something very wrong about this whole situation. I don’t want to criticise, but how did it get to this stage without you noticing? There could have been dog etc excrement in that mud. Your child could have gone blind. And why would you even record/ post this? There is so much wrong with this."
But mum Stacey soon cleared up that: "It ended pretty much when it started I took the video for her to see when she is older. she is totally fine no dog mess etc. It’s something for her to look back on and see that I don’t mind her playing away."
