We can't decide if it's a good thing or a bad thing having a comedian parent who'll always see the funny side in things.
Everyone remembers the many stings of nettles from their youth so obviously our sympathy levels are at a high level for William Andrews' son but it's a struggle to not laugh once you hear how he reacted to his first set of stings.

Thankfully the internet was also able to see the funny side.

Ah that is funny. Wait until he’s older and stubs his toe. His words may not be as innocent!

Your Son will be published at some point and even studied in schools, probably https://t.co/0DFksdD1oW

And for those wondering which cream he opted for and how he's doing...
