Kids these days…

By Anonymous - 13/04/2009 02:39 - United States

Today, my two year-old cousin was having a temper tantrum. I decided to give him a flashlight because playing with it usually distracts him. It didn't. Instead, he hit me in the face with it as hard as possible, leaving a bruise. FML

Today, I asked my 2 year old son to clean up his toys. When I bent down to give him a good job kiss afterwards, he punched me in the nose. FML

Today, my 2-year-old son put his hand on my face, gave me a sweet kiss, and put his cheek against mine. Then he slapped me hard enough to leave a mark, laughed, and scrambled away. FML

Little shit

Today, I was asked to take care of my 3 year-old little brother. After 15 minutes of him screaming and me trying to keep him entertained, he started throwing his toy cars at me. He hit me in the mouth, and I started to bleed. My parents yelled at me for "not controlling him." FML

Demon child

Today, I was babysitting a two year-old. He was messing around with a silver fork and I told him it was dangerous. He then got mad at me, started crying, and stabbed me right in the foot. Be warned, even though they're little, they can still cause a lot of pain. FML

Not her fault nor mine

Today, my 4 year-old daughter got royally annoyed at my uncle who won't stop surprise tickling her by poking her waist. When he went for another, she punched him square on the nose, making him a laughing stock. Not accepting that he got owned, he started preaching about child discipline to me. FML

Today, my 5 year old daughter thought it would be funny to wake me up by tickling my toes. I guess one of my reflexes acted out because I kicked her right in the face. FML

Today, my son accidentally damaged another kid in the face with a baseball bat, while blindfolded trying to hit a piñata. Except there was no piñata, or blindfold. FML

Today, while shopping, my six-year-old son threw a tantrum because I wouldn't buy him a video game. I ended up having to grab his arm and leave the store. He screamed that I was kidnapping him, at which point I was socked in the face and pinned to the floor by three bystanders. FML

Today, my little brother was feeling like the god damned bratty douchebag he is and hurled a basketball at me. It missed, hit the wall, and rebounded straight into his face. He burst into tears, and I'm now grounded because my parents believed him when he said I threw it at him. FML

Today, I was babysitting my neighbor's kid. We were playing in the yard, when he fell and got a small scratch on his leg. I gasp, and he takes a huge breath in and yells, "FUUUCK!!!" as loud as possible. The parents thought it was me, and the mother slapped me in the face. FML

Does he have special needs? Sometimes that is how children with special needs act. Now, if his special need is SBS (spoiled brat syndrome), then tell your sibling and their SO that you will NOT be babysitting unless a) you're paid twice minimum wage and b) they're presesnt. Let them get their asses beat ,it's a good form of birth control for them.

Aww, you got a bruise? You want us to kiss it and give you a band-aid?

Many commenters seem to not realize the intelligence level of a two year old. Many of them cannot talk yet, are too young to just leave in a room and spanking them will just make them more angry without them understanding why they are being punished. This FML is hardly one, the person watching the baby should have known how to handle an upset child. Totally YDI, and I would suggest not babysitting anymore.

yo fault. Rather than deal with a tantrum, you gave him a toy instead. Which he used to beat some sense into you. You need to deal with the kid's needs before you give him a toy to play with. He is the Rafiki to your Simba.

Well, that's definitely one demonstration for why you shouldn't give ANYTHING to some bratty little kid to get them to behave. The only thing they should get when they're being awful is discipline. Two year olds are smarter than people give them credit for. Just because there's a language barrier doesn't mean they dont' get it. It's like training a puppy. They can't speak english. They're just babies. And they might not get it at first either and go sulk but they get it pretty quickly.

Ok, first of all, why didn't you just hit HIM with the flashlight to begin with (tantrum solved)? And secondly, if he was having a temper tantrum, why on earth would you hand the little shit something you could kill a person with??? "Oh, Timmy's angry again. Here Timmy, play with this machete like a good boy..."
