Today, I was called by my son's school to pick him up. Apparently, he snorted baking soda, crushed aspirin, and flour because he thought it was coke. Where did I go wrong raising this twerp? FML

Today, I picked my son up from school, and asked how his day went. He told me how his friend explained to him that his mommy snorts sugar with his uncle, and if he could try what his friend's mom calls "Booger sugar" when we got home. FML

Today, I realized it was mistake telling my son to toughen up and fight his own battles when he told me he was getting bullied. Apparently, his idea of fighting his own battles involves ipecac. I don't know where he got it, but when I asked, he just gave the Kubrick stare and denied knowing what I was talking about. FML

Today, my son thought it was a good idea to spray deodorant into his mouth because he wanted fresh breath. This resulted in him passing out. My son is 17. FML

Today, I got a call from my five-year-old son's principal. My son had pooped in the schoolyard, then gave the teacher a Ziploc bag, and commanded her to pick it up. He said he was trying to imitate our dog. FML

Today, I had to stop my son from climbing out the window, slithering on the stairs like a snake, and attempting to call 911 to help bring him down from his “bad trip”. What caused all this? His older brother convinced him the dried mushrooms in the kitchen were ‘shrooms and the idiot beloved him. FML

Today, against my wishes, my son snuck out of my house to go partying. When he came home, I called him in so I could properly discipline him. While I was talking, he staggered to our fish tank, pulled open the lid, and vomited straight into it. FML

You didn't teach him how to tell real coke from BS. That's where you went wrong.

Maybe you went wrong when you started calling him a twerp? It's infuriating to see how many parents wonder why their kids are so messed up when they're the ones who caused the problems. Stop blaming them for your bad parenting! And yes, calling your son names is bad parenting... ever heard of verbal or emotional abuse? YDI

there's a difference between verbal abuse and calling your son a twerp. verbal abuse is constantly calling your kid names and not just when your mad. it's all the time and it is a lot worse than twerp. I know someone who was verbally abused. her mom would call he stupid fat ugly a bitch a **** an accident or worse. have we gotten so politically correct that calling your kid a twerp means you are verbally abusing them?
