These toddlers' conversation sounds alarmingly familiar
Naps - always in deficit
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It's a familiar sensation. It's a new year, your body clock is all skewed, and the first four hours of each day your eyes feel like they're on fire and making normal human conversation has become strangely impossible.
You need a nap, several, and this little girl knows exactly how you feel.
Crying for reasons unknown, her cold as ice brother asks: "Did you have a nap today?"
"I didn't!" she replies, furiously shaking her head.
"Well you need one!" he fires back, calmly chewing on a roll.
"No I don't!" his sister insists, fully in self-denial.
I don't know who these kids are or why their parents are filming them crying, but they're delighting the internet - attracting hundreds of thousands of views.
In other children being surprisingly profound news, here's a 4-year-old quite suavely inviting a girl round to his house to "eat cheeses with me".
