That didn’t happen.
Rachel King
Ah yes, because the crèche wouldn’t call the police about a kidnapping of a child? This story doesn’t add up.

It’s not believable to add an entire year onto a two year old and expect childcare workers not to realise though.

We couldn’t possibly judge whether it happened or not, but others just thought it was funny.

Awkward.
