Today, my 17-year-old son hacked off the legs of his bed with a saw. His explanation? "The bed looks cooler closer to the floor." FML

Just throw him a blanket and let him sleep on the floor. He'll be the coolest kid in the neighborhood.

If he cut it so the whole bed is level I'm impressed

I read that soo wrong at first lol. Thought it said that he hacked off his own legs to be closer to the ground. I was like OMG

Why exactly is this a problem? Low beds aren't his own ridiculous idea; they're sold in stores and do have a certain appeal. He's growing up and wants to change his room accordingly. He decided to DIY it rather than whining and getting you to buy a new bed like a lot of teens would. If it was a really expensive bed or a family heirloom then yeah, that sucks, bit if it's just a standard bed it's not really a problem. Just help him sand the edges down so it's even and not rough and you're all good.

Seeing as its most probably his parents who paid for the bed, and he didn't ask permission, then I think it's a pretty valid FML

Obviously it would've been best if he'd talked to them about it first. I'm just saying, it's not that crazy a thing to do, and the end result likely isn't really a problem for anyone.

It's not like he's on crack, it's just a bed.

Apparently taking the mattress off didn't occur to him...but hey if he got the bed level give him a bit more wood he could maybe become a carpenter...

When I was a teenager, I set my bed on 4 cinderblocks so it was higher off the ground. That way, I could have more storage space under my bed and have more room. I then hung a bed sheet off the boxspring to the floor (like a long bedskirt) to hide the stuff under the bed to make it neater in appearance.
