Kids Tell the Ugly Truth
Chapter Twelve: "What's the Worst Thing You've Ever Said to Someone?"
Preface
Words can be powerful—sometimes they hurt, sometimes they heal, and sometimes they're just downright hilarious (or embarrassing). Tonight's Cards Against Humanity-inspired question dives into the messy world of "What's the worst thing you've ever said to someone?" From toddlers blurting out the truth to teens throwing shade, we're getting the ugly truth on what comes out of their mouths when they don't hold back. Plus, for every confession, we'll throw in a "What Would You Do?" scenario—because sometimes the hardest part is knowing how to fix it.
