She Accidentally Flashed Her Daughter’s Class On Zoom After Getting Out Of The Shower
As March progresses, many of us are starting to be hit with memories and social media post flashbacks from the start of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns and quarantine era.
For those who were forced to suddenly start working their corporate jobs or attend classes from home and have Zoom meetings, chances are, you embarrassed yourself or someone else did something embarrassing during a virtual meeting at least once.
After all, none of us are perfect, and getting used to seeing our peers and loved ones virtually every day took some getting used to.
One mom went viral in 2020 after one of her worst nightmares came through, and she accidentally flashed her kid’s Zoom class mid-pandemic.
Ashley Smith, a mom in Florida, posted a hilarious video in May 2020 of her hardly being able to stop laughing as she explained what happened.
“Today I became a cautionary tale,” wrote Ashley in the caption of her Facebook video.
Between laughs, Ashley explains that she decided to take a shower after her kids had all logged onto Zoom for school.
After enjoying her nice shower, she felt fresh and ready for the day. Ashley went from her bathroom into her bedroom to grab her clothes and take off her towel. Then, suddenly, she heard her youngest daughter’s voice say, “Hang on.”
Then, she heard another young voice from her kid’s computer, saying, “I think we need to hang up; we might all be in trouble.”

That was when Ashley realized that her seven-year-old daughter had decided to take her Zoom call into her bedroom while she was in the shower, and she was Zooming with her classmates from her bed.
“Her computer was on my pillow, camera facing the middle of the room, [and] she was on her stomach tucked under the covers,” wrote Ashley.
At that moment, Ashley realized she walked right in front of her daughter’s Zoom call with no clothes on.
“What do I do?” says a cackling Ashley in her video, with a towel still wrapped around her wet hair.
“Do I write an apology note to all the parents? Or do I pretend like it didn’t happen or call them all liars and [say] they didn’t really see it? How is this real life?”
In her caption, Ashley writes about how the struggles and potential humiliation that come with children’s virtual learning weren’t in any parenting handbooks before the pandemic.
“Not being able to exist in your own house without knowing where a Zoom call might pop up is hard,” she wrote.
Thankfully, after posting her viral video and learning more about her daughter’s friends’ experience that day, she found out they didn’t see anything too graphic. Phew!
