Actor and producer Tim Theron, one of the lead roles in the second Klein Karoo film which was screened online on 10 March during the buildup to kykNET’s annual Silwerskerm Festival, has taken to social media with his daughter’s hilarious, newfound word which was meant to send a message to her younger brother, loud and clear.
Trouble is, her brother can’t read just yet.
“When you passive-aggressively want to get back at your brother for irritating you, you write ‘mad words’ on his Paw Patrol stamp picture…because you know he can’t read,” Tim wrote in his caption.
“We obviously don’t use such crude language in our home (joke…we certainly swear sometimes) but that specific combo Sophia definitely didn’t hear from one of us. What do they teach the kids at school these days?” the actor asked.
