🥺 Pleading Face
Stable🌍UniversalDefinition
The pleading face emoji with big watery eyes. Used to beg, express vulnerability, react to something adorable, or make a request more sympathetic. The 'puppy dog eyes' of the emoji world.
Translation for Parents
Big puppy dog eyes. Your kid is either begging for something, reacting to something cute, or being dramatic about wanting something. 'Can I stay out until midnight 🥺' is the digital equivalent of your five-year-old looking up at you with huge sad eyes asking for ice cream. Same energy, different decade.
Examples
“Can I have $20 🥺”
“Can I have $20? (with maximum puppy dog energy)”
“The puppy 🥺🥺🥺”
“That puppy is so cute I can't handle it”
Cringe Score
Mildly embarrassing
If your kid sends you 🥺, they want something. You've been warned. If YOU send it to them, they'll think you're being sarcastic. Which could work in your favor.
