A MORTIFIED woman has branded herself an “idiot” after accidentally sending her nine-year-old Godson an inappropriate present – leaving his "uptight" mum seriously unimpressed.
She placed an Amazon order of gifts to be delivered to the family home but realised too late that she’d made a huge mistake.
The blunder saw her send the young boy a chocolate bar that read “w****r”.
The bar had a novelty wrapper with letters from a Wispa bar, a Malteser packet, a Minstrels packet, a Flake, and the final letter of a Double Decker to spell out the swear word.
The woman is long-term friends with the boy's dad and said it’s a “mystery to her” why he married an “uptight” woman.
Taking to Mumsnet, the woman explained that her young Godson was not the intended recipient of the chocolate bar.

And while the young lad’s dad found it funny – and rung old friend to tell her what had happened during the gift opening ceremony – his mum was unamused.
The embarrassed gifter penned: “Can Godmothers quit?
“I’m not sure I’m cut out for this.
“I’ve messaged her to apologise.

“Clearly it is not fine.”
The worst part of the situation was the boy was opening his presents and showing them to other family members – including his little sister.
The boy’s grandparents – who are “even more uptight” than his mum, according to the gifter – were shocked at the gift.
What’s more, his little sister asked what w****r meant.
People flocked to the forum thread to weigh in on the situation, with many agreeing the boy’s mum needs to “loosen up”.
One person said: “I absolutely thought you had sent a sex toy so it’s definitely better than that.
“I’d have found that really funny as would my husband!
“Never mind, worse things have happened.”
A second penned: “This is hilarious. The mother needs a good slap. How uptight.”
The woman went on to discuss her hunch that her friend’s wife has never really liked her.
She explained: “We get on fine on the odd occasions we meet up when I am always on my best behaviour.
