Today, my young son and I were in line at Subway. I guess he got bored and started to insult the teenage girl behind us. I tried to get him to stop, but he wouldn't listen. Eventually the girl punched him in the face and left. As my son cried uncontrollably, everyone else there clapped. FML

Today, I went to Subway. A lady was in the line with her toddler. The kid screamed in his bid for attention, while his mother and the cashier ignored him, to the point that his voice became a loud screech and the sandwich artist couldn't hear me. I bellowed, "SHUT THAT KID UP!" Silence and glares followed. FML

Today, while working at Subway, a man ordered a sub with avocado. When I told him it was no longer available, he screamed, spit in my face and ran out, pushing over an innocent bystander in the process. FML

Today, my 15-year-old son got so enraged at a fly that kept harassing him, that he ended up slapping himself in the face as it flew by him. This caused him to fall out of his chair, at which point he broke down into a mess of tears, humiliating me in front of everyone. FML

Today, while shopping, my six-year-old son threw a tantrum because I wouldn't buy him a video game. I ended up having to grab his arm and leave the store. He screamed that I was kidnapping him, at which point I was socked in the face and pinned to the floor by three bystanders. FML

Today, I went to the movies with my husband and our 6-year-old son. My husband kept stealing popcorn from the guy next to him, to the point where the guy punched him in the face. The movie was stopped, the police were called, and my son is now inconsolable. FML

Today, my son got a beating. Apparently, he went to a club, waited until he saw a couple of girls pulling a duckface for a photo, then rushed over and threw pieces of bread at them. Their boyfriends, not too surprisingly, didn't appreciate this. I had to drive the idiot home from the hospital. FML

Call CPS, quick

Today, I saw a kid throwing a tantrum in a supermarket. Thinking it was a matter of lack of discipline, I waited for the kid’s mother to come out of the bathroom to tell her how naughty her son was being. I then got to watch her beat her son to the point of unconsciousness. FML

Today, I was at a restaurant when I heard a young girl telling her father she didn't think she was pretty. When I got up to leave, I walked past her table and told her she was beautiful. Her dad then punched me in the face. FML

Not only would I have clapped too, I would've burst out laughing. Your son had it coming.

See this as a fail on your part and improve your parenting skills. It probably should've been you that got punched in the face.

I wouldn't say that you deserved it, but your son definitely did.

Words can not explain how embarrassed I would be if my child ever did something like that!

"I GUESS he got bored...I TRIED to get him to stop but he wouldn't listen..." It's already been said, but christ, OP, who is the parent here? Go and discipline your child, you should be ashamed of yourself for allowing your son to get away with being such a little brat. If that was my kid I would be mortified... That girl had the right idea, you're raising a bully.

I think the need for that went after a girl beat him up

I love all of you judging her when you likely do not have children yourselves. She probably tried everything short of hitting him and making him leave with her. Some kids deserve a smack, but if a parent does that they get judged for that too. You cannot win as a parent these days - you use stern words and the kid sill misbehaves, you're a bad mom; if you use a good thwack on the ass to get their attention, you're a bad mom. How about you all get off your high horses and try to walk in her shoes? With FML's character limit, we never can know the full story.

I have to disagree Zehla. Even her wording "I guess he got bored". Firstly she doesn't even pay enough attention to her kid to keep him occupied, and secondly, who the hell randomly starts to insult people when they are bored? Parenting fail!

NO. Just NO. She should have left the store if she could not control him. While it is true that parents nowadays, regrettably, get in trouble for spanking their kids, she definitely would not get in any trouble for leaving the store to spare other patrons the trouble.
