If you've ever lived or worked with a passive-aggressive note-leaver, you'll know they can be some of the most irritating things in the universe to receive. 

But one UK mother has discovered that sometimes a passive-aggressive note can be the funniest thing in the world - when they come from young children. 

She was left in stitches after coming across the letter penned by her seven-year-old daughter, who was very unimpressed about being asked to switch off her Disney movie and get ready for bed. 

Taking to Reddit, the woman shared a photo of the complaint, explaining: "Whenever our daughter disagrees with a parental decision, we receive these passive-aggressive cards."

Other parents and amused Redditors quickly took to the comments to praise the creativity of the little girl's response, and muse on how it indicates a certain type of communication as an adult. 

"Her email game is going to be fierce," one person pointed out. 

"That's top-level emotional manipulation for a child. I'd be proud and scared," another advised. 

"She will truly be a formidable housemate come university," another joked. 

It's not the first passive-aggressive note from a kid to go viral. 

Earlier this year, one mortified mum discovered her six-year-old daughter had been leaving instructions for their cleaner
