Kids: Kids say the funniest things

Kids say the funniest things

Today, my 6 year-old daughter saw a man in a wheelchair whose leg had been amputated. She walks up to him and says, "What happened?" He answers kindly that he's a war veteran. She then responds, "Well then you deserve to get your leg blown off. You shouldn't be killing people." FML

Stranger danger

Today, my five-year-old daughter is absolutely miserable and constantly putting herself down, as she has been for a week. What happened a week ago? She bumped into a stranger at Walmart, apologized, and the guy told her, “Nope, not good enough. You need to die.” Who says that to a child? FML

Quiet

Today, I was sitting in the hospital waiting area. An old lady was crying, and my five year-old daughter asked her, "Are you okay?" The woman quietly nodded, prompting my daughter to scream at the top of her lungs, "Well shut up then!" FML

Today, I was giving a tour for parents who wanted to send their kids to our school. One of the parents had a kid on crutches with what appeared to be a broken leg, so I asked him how he broke it. He replied, "I was born like this." FML

Today, my 6-year-old daughter walked into the bathroom where I was grumbling about my weight. Seeing how upset I was, she took my hand and said, "Mom, you're not fat. You just look fat." FML

Today, while making small talk with a veteran, I made the mistake of using the phrase "Cost an arm and a leg". He was a double amputee. FML

Today, I was visiting my sick grandmother in the hospital when my cousin and I were playing in some empty wheelchairs. After goofing off I said, "They're fun, but I would kill myself if I was in a wheelchair." A little boy rounded the corner and said, "Tell me about it." He was in a wheelchair. FML

Today, while shopping, an old man came up to me and told me I should be ashamed for walking around fake limping, and that it's horrible to mock people who actually limp from serious injuries. I wasn't faking, I was born without my right leg and I was getting used to my new prosthetic one. FML

Today, my anatomy teacher was putting together a skeleton model for class. He had misplaced the leg bone, so I thoughtfully asked, "What's the matter, lose a leg?" Unfortunately, there's nothing thoughtful about asking that question to a guy with an amputated leg. FML

Toxic masculinity

By Anonymous - 21/04/2022 18:00

Today, my great-grandfather had his arm blown off in the army and used the splintered bone to stab an enemy soldier, and got a goddamn medal for it, and yet I just watched my grown-ass son squealing like a bitch for over 10 minutes because he got a splinter in his toe. How far we’ve fallen. FML

#43 is an idiot. Someone who volunteers to fight for his country deserves to have his leg blown off?

People shes 6 lol. this is all being over analyzed. its a good fml. Think the mom gets it that is why she posted it, some of you are adding insult to injury by agreeing with the 6 yrl old or disagreeing with the idea. I mean if most of you are adults you would realize its an innocent thing a kid would say like "mom your fat" or "your ugly" that is how how kids are, stop bashing the mom by the way.

Maybe if her parents (or parent, there is a good chance you were an unwed mother) weren't raging "progressives" (PC term for ignorant liberals) that care more about being "citizens of the world" than protecting American lives she wouldn't spew stupid, offensive garbage. You're a failure as a parent and not because you disagree with US policy, but because you feel its appropriate to discuss things like that in front of your adolescent child.

On a basic level she is right about the pointless nature of war. We should have, by this time, developed a means to compromise other than shoot at each other. However, that's not the way the world works at the present and he didn't "deserve" to have his leg amputated.

This is an extreme slippery slope topic. I agree war is pointless. My fiance is in Iraq right now fighting in a war that is completly pointless. I however, do not think that our soilders deserve to have their legs amputated or anything much worse that unfortunatly happens to our soilders in war.

Apparently at age 6 we aren't able to justify whatever the hell we want. I wish more people had the smarts of your 6 year old. Maybe then you wouldn't see amputees on the streets.
