Today, I was outside searching for "treasures" with my son using small plastic shovels. All of a sudden he starts screaming. He dug up the bones of our old dog. I told him that we had sent him away to live on a farm, I even helped my son write letters to the farm owners. FML

Perhaps you should have buried the dog further down... he must've been awfully close to the surface if your son was able to reach the bones with a plastic shovel.

And this is why we shouldn't lie to our kids about dumb stuff. They can handle the truth.

That's what you get for lying to your kids. And digging shallow graves.

You sent him? Are you referring to the dog or the boy?

That's what you get for lying to your kid about something like this.

Few questions - why would you let him dig where you buried the dog. Why wasn't it buried deeper. and when he DID dig it up, why did you tell him it was the dead dog..you already lied to him about the dog before so lie again and do what #6 said, tell him it was dinosaur bones or something. YDI for being stupid

agree with #3, first of all. secondly i understand the desire to want to shelter your kids, but they have to learn about death sometime. i was never told any "farm" stories as a child and i really appreciate my parents for that. but either way, it's your kid. but bury that stuff better.

And this is why we don't lie to our children. You ****** him up but good with this, far more so than if you had simply told him at the time that the dog was dead. Ace job of parenting you're doing there, son.

Hey next time, don't be such a lazy ass and bury the damn dog a little deeper in the ground. How deep can a little kid get with a plastic shovel? You my friend are an idiot because you were too lazy to dig a 4ft grave instead of a 1ft grave.

you shoulda dug deeper, idiot. and told the kid the truth. kids need to learn how to handle death at a young age.or they'll be 18 going "no my grandma didn't die, she just took a very long vacation to antarctica."
