Kristen Bell can barely keep it together as Dax Shepard explains middle fingers to their daughters

Ah, the weird joys of parenting … Kristen Bell shared a series of videos on her Instagram Story over the weekend that showed her reaction to her husband, Dax Shepard’s attempt to teach their 6-year-old daughter Lincoln and 5-year-old daughter Delta what it means when someone holds up a certain finger or uses a certain “naughty” word. The clips — which feature very tiny, off-camera voices dropping “F”-bombs (because research) — came with a caption about how Kristen’s “been waiting for this conversation since the day I got pregnant … the one where we talk about what fingers mean u hold em up.” At one point one of their daughters tells her dad a boy in school “says this is ‘f—. He says that every time in school. The teacher says that’s a bad word.” Dax confirms that the boy is “naughty” and the word is “not a nice” one before moving on to the finger part. “You know, that’s a naughty finger and I never see you do that. It makes me so proud that you know that, yet you don’t do it,” he tells her as Kristen struggles not tor burst out laughing. “Well, you did it a couple of times when you were young, before you knew it was a naughty word,” Dax adds. “I fidgeting because i am trying so hard not to laugh. Its excruciating. @daxshepard, u handled this brilliantly. (sic),” Kristen captioned one post. Her favorite part, though? “This was too funny,” she wrote alongside another video. “But also the ending when she said ‘and he laughs at everything I do’ 💔💔😫.”
