idk if anyone has mentioned this but here's my two cents. i got in some trouble at school for forging my mom's signature (13-14 yrs old idk how a 6 yr would be able to do this) on some readings just like the OP's son. She was called in and said it was in fact her's. i know this wouldn't seem like the right thing for my mom to do but she didn't want something like this on my record that would hinder any trust i have with my teachers. I sure did learn a lesson when i got home though. I was grounded (for those that dont know, all "fun" privileges were taken away i.e. tv, computer, etc.) for a week and i was given some great chores to do. any parent should defend their kids whenever possible for the sake of their future and put it straight to them at home. Back to the OP: i know its been said already but what the hell does this show your child? to lie about something as petty as handwriting? kids hold on to things like this much longer than adults do (most of the time). my sister still holds a grudge on me from some stupid situation when i was 10 and she was 6. i honestly hope your son can forgive you for this but if he doesn't and it comes back to bite you in the ass dont act like there wasn't a warning. most of the fml community agrees you're an immature dick and should have never had kids to begin with.

If I meet you on the street and you're a man I'll kick you in the nuts. If you're a woman, I'll knock you out, drag you to the nearest plastic surgon, make you get a sex change operation, and THEN kick you in the nuts.

I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't too embarrassed to admit it. What sort of message are you sending to your kid? That it's okay to lie and get someone else in trouble? Or possibly that you don't care that much about him?

wow. that's a ****** bitch move. why would you dk that to your own son? it's not a big deal to have bad handwriting. not many people have wonderful hand writing. if you were my parent, I'd have definetly lost any sense of trust or belief in you. grow up.

okay, you probably aren't the worst parent ever (which I was tempted to call you), but you're pretty damn close to worst probably-middle-class-working-cares-about-children's-education parent (you care about you're child's education, right?) I've ever heard of.

You're a douche. So much for teaching your kid responsibility. I agree, F your kids life.

You know he could have gotten in serious trouble for this right?

why would you let your kid take the blame?? poor kid. you suck.

What the **** is wrong with you? I hope your son grows up resenting you for being such a worthless, selfish, cowardly piece of shit. You would sooner let your son suffer than admit a minor flaw on your part? If only people like you had the good sense to recognize that they are unfit parents and give their kids to a relative or any couple that is prepared to sacrifice more than these insignificant trifles for the sake of their child. You make me sick. Judging by your level of maturity and responsibility, I think it's a safe bet that you aren't very far out of high school yourself. People like you give me a sudden urge to torture them in ways that Guantanamo Bay wouldn't dare to. You are undeniably one of the most despicable cockroaches ever to post or even be mentioned in an FML. If you can't even summon the tiny amount of courage needed to admit a small issue with your handwriting, I would love to see how you hold up when your 6-year-old son comes home wondering why his parent told his teacher that he forged a signature when he didn't. First, go find your son a better home, then crawl into the darkest corner of your house, assume the fetal position, and wait to die, you unforgivable, contemptible, ignoble excuse for a human being. And you have the nerve to say you still have your dignity? You still have an ounce of self-respect after what you've done? Well, you may have caused your son to be punished for a crime he did not commit, but at least they don't know how bad your handwriting is. There are no words to sufficiently describe how lowly an insect you are. You think your life is ******? At least you aren't growing up with a parent like you.

"but I still have my dignity." No, I'm pretty sure you lost it.
