Today, I learned the hard way that if you tell your child that they're old enough to cook their own food in the microwave, you have to make sure they're smart enough not to put the metal spoon in with the food as well. FML

It's not about how smart the kid is, it's about how dumb you are for not telling him what he should not put in the microwave. YDI.

Expecting a kid to know to not put metal in a microwave without being told is like expecting anti-obesity groups to blame parents rather than McDonalds for child obesity.

Did you ever teach them that metal couldn't go in a microwave?

I mean that seems like common sense, but at a young age maybe not? It'd help if I knew the kids age to decide. But for now it's a FYL

You should've told your kid not to put metal in the microwave... How the heck would they know otherwise?

Instead of just shrugging and saying "Meh, you're old enough. Do it yourself.", maybe next time you should actually teach your kid. -_- YDI Double YDI for calling your kid stupid for YOUR screw up.

When my parents first let me use the microwave by myself, they told me specifically not to put metal in there. If you didn't tell him not to put metal in there, how else was he suppose to know before actually doing it? Idiot.
