A proud mom shared the security camera footage of an innocent conversation with her eight-year-old daughter, who was convinced her mother was only 21 years old because of how young she looked. Youthful 32-year-old mom Storm Patterson, from Alabama, walked through her front door to discover her daughter, Korra, who started her conversation: "Mom, you know you're 21...." Korra explained how she had expressed her mother’s age to her friends in school, who had then pointed out that Storm must have been 13 and in middle school when her daughter was born. Storm – who TikTok users praised for hearing her daughter out – then reassured her daughter that, while she appreciated the compliment, she is, in fact, 32 years of age. A happy Korra smiled and replied, "Huh. Last time I thought you were 20," before going about her day. Storm said she corrected her daughter during the sweet interaction because she did not want her to get bullied in school over the age at which she gave birth to Korra. She also said it's wrong to judge people who might have a young mom – something she was trying to instill in Korra, too.

00:18And I was like, and I said, eight.
00:22And then I started to count.

00:31maybe even in middle school when she had Cora.
00:34But her mom made sure to clarify.
00:37Okay, I appreciate that you think that I'm 21, but I'm 32.
