Today, my twelve year-old son thought it would be a good idea to relentlessly shoot the mail truck with a paintball gun in front of all the neighbors. FML

Just so you know, everything has worked out fine. The mailman was pretty nice about it. He had to wash off the back of the truck, and pay a little money to help fix it.

Shouldn't his parent discipline him? Oh wait........ YOU'RE the parent!

If your son hasn't already been informed, maybe now would be a good time to let him know... On August 2, 1968, assault on a mail carrier became a federal crime in the United States. I hope your mailman has a sense of humor or your son could be in big trouble. We were all stupid kids once. Use this opportunity to help scare him smart! Good luck!!!

and WHO bought a 12 year old boy the paintball gun? -.-

Out! * raises hand and mailbag while stuffing a sock over can of mace*

My kids would never do that I guess some kids are brought up with morals

Absolutely right! My kids would never have done that & if they did, they would've never come back home because they knew they'd get their butts tore up & lose every single toy they owned!

You should tell him to make sure nobody's watching next time he does something like this.

Is your son a dog? No one hates mailmen more than dogs.

Maybe hes trying to lead a revolution

Even if you didn't buy it, it's a fail on your part & I'm sure the US Postal Service has or will let you know that when you get the huge-mongous bill for the damages! You will get a bill, you can count on it! Still gotta say, YDI!

If he's going to be that irresponsible with his paintball gun, then you shouldn't have even bought it for him in the first place.
