Today, a senile old lady came up to me and offered me chocolate. I noticed that it was ex-lax, so I politely told her no. My 4-year-old daughter pushed me aside and ate the ex-lax, because she thought it was candy. I now have a stinky child on a 3 hour bus ride, with no stops. FML

You couldn't stop your child? I'd never let my daughter take any sort of candy from a stranger. I would have said no, given a reason and distracted my daughter with something else.

You let your child eat a laxative from a SENILE lady? She's lucky nothing worse happened. Who know what could have been in it. Parenting fail.

Tell her that excessively having to go to the bathroom until it hurts, is what happens when you disobey your parents.

'Smooth move, ex-lax', mom says to her son.

I am sorry but this is why people should need to get a license to breed. I don't care how strong the kid is, I don't care how light weight you are. The next time it's not going to be shit-me-chocolate, it's going to be booze or drugs and you will be on here going "oh poor me, FML" well guess what you will deserve it then as much as you do now for not teaching your child, not only basic manners and restraint, but taking candy from a stranger. Read a parenting book. Please.

Ex lax takes over 6 hours to kick in-you're totally exaggerating the situation

So is this what parenting is now-a-days? Blaming other people because you can't control your kids yourself?

YOU are the parent! you tell your child no, they don't grab the 'candy'. If she starts going for it, you need to stop her. This is YOUR fault, not the strangers, not your 4 year old's. Learn how to say no to your child

YDI For not teaching your child manners! Even a 4 year old is old enough to know better!

There is a difference between SPANKING and BEATING a child. All tho in this case I think instead of spanking the child someone shoulda beat some sense into the parent!

Actually no, there's not a difference. Spanking...beating... Abuse is abuse, plain and simple.
