I’m a 4ft 5 dwarf & look 16 – I hate buying alcohol because of the weird stares… people think I’m a child with boobs
SHE'S 4ft 5, and is faced with challenges on a daily basis.
One such situation is when she has to go and buy alcohol - which happened recently when she wanted to pick up a bottle of wine for her mum.
In a video on her TikTok page, Mihaley admitted she was "very nervous" ahead of the trip into the store.
"I feel like on a good day, I look at least 16," she said.
"I just want to get my mum a bottle of wine!"
She then resumed the video after getting back into her car - WITH the bottle of wine.

"Okay, so I just got back from inside, and of course, I got ID, which, whatever," Mihaley continued.
"But I got some funny looks.
"People were just like, what is the 7 year old with boobs doing in here?
"I had to ask for help because I couldn't find it, and then ended up being on the top shelf, which wasn't gonna happen.
"So the lady was really sweet.
"She asked for ID, I was like, 'I know I look seven, I promise. I just turned 21'.
"And she's like, 'No, you're okay. Happy late birthday!'
"She was nice about it, though, so. Yay!"
"Chronicles of being 4ft 5," Mihaley captioned the video.
And the comments section was almost immediately filled with other people admitting they have similar difficulties to Mihaley.
"I’m 24 and the lady at Applebees legit said i looked 16 and she had to see my ID & still didn’t believe me 100%," one wrote.
"I'm only 4'9" and 27 years old," another added.
"I get told all the time I look like I'm 15!"
"I’m 5’2 and I get carded if I’m in sweatpants and a hoodie but if I’m in my scrubs they don’t card me…. I’m like damn okay," a third commented.
"I'm 4'9 and almost 24. when I was pregnant everyone looked at me weird," someone else commented.
