All Finn Dove wanted to do was be a hated bad guy, but instead he wound up becoming one of the most beloved 3-year-olds on the planet.
It all started when, while celebrating Christmas at his parents’ Alabama home, Finn and his two cousins got it into their heads to use a green marker to “paint” Finn into a bad guy as part of the game they were playing. Sounds good, right?
And it was all good up until Finn’s mother caught them in the act. Ruh oh!
Watch what happened next, courtesy sports anchor Rick Karle of Birmingham station WVTM:
When you are 3 years old, you grab a green marker, you turn yourself into a bad guy and then you get caught by your mom.

Finn promptly began apologizing.
“We wanted to be bad guys. That’s why we did it. And we’re sorry. Are you mad at us?” he said.
“I’m pretty upset,” his mom replied.
“Is daddy going to be mad too?” Finn then said.
“Who knows? Who knows?” his mom responded.
And then came the young “bad guy’s” moment of enlightenment.
“Maybe we should think about what we done,” he said.
But Finn’s mom wasn’t convinced.
“You think thinking about what you’ve done is going to take away the marker all over your chest,” she asked.
“If we take a bath, it will,” Finn replied.
Fact-check: TRUE.
The video concluded with Finn’s mother giving the three a life sentence.
“You are officially never allowed to use a marker again,” she said.
Brutal … but hey, don’t do the crime, don’t do the time!
“But we use them to draw,” Finn tried rebutting.
“Well, try paper next time,” his mom said.
“Yes, ma’am,” Finn replied.
Now, while Finn must obviously pay a dear price for his mission to become a “bad guy,” he’s since become a beloved international sensation for many reasons.
One of those reasons is his incredibly polite demeanor and willingness to take responsibility:
Great kids right there. Very well mannered. Kids will be kids and do stuff, but these three have some great times ahead. Reminds me of me and my two brothers, 5 years separates us in age.

He took responsibility, owned up to it, said he was sorry, and offered a solution. Better than 99% of us!

And finished with a chastened “Yes, ma’am.” Love this kid! He also stood up to take the heat for all three of them. Love him!

Another reason is that Finn and his cousins reminded parents of their own children.
Look:
Absolutely precious!!!! My boys are 15 & 16 and I’d give anything for them to be that age again even for just one day.

When my son was this age he cut his 2 year old sister’s long hair the day before her photos were being taken. His reason was he wanted her “to have beautiful short hair like mommy and grandma”. Yes, I was upset, but I couldn’t stay mad. Kids are precious!

Classic! Reminds me of my son when he was three he decided to get a black marker and write all over the walls. Yeah…..🤔😂

While Finn earned himself some new fans, his mother meanwhile got herself some new critics who felt that she was too tough on him and should “lighten up.”
Look:
Don’t be so mean Parental! This precocious and precious little guy needs an immediate pardon!

Speaking of pardons, President Donald Trump reportedly hasn’t finished his pardoning spree yet, so you never know …
