Today, I overheard my daughter compliment my mother by saying "My mom is way flabbier than you, Grandma." When I told her later that she hurt my feelings, she told me to "man up." She's seven. FML

Today, a 7-year-old girl came up to me and told me to go fuck myself. I told her to watch her language or else I'd tell her parents. Her mom happened to be nearby and actually heard the conversation; she came up to me and told me to go fuck myself as well. FML

Today, I had to give my four year-old daughter some tough love, which I hate doing. When she ran away crying, my son, her twin brother, looked at me and said, "You should be ashamed of yourself." FML

Today, like every other day, my daughter thinks that degrading skinny people is very "non-conformist" and "edgy". This time, though, a slightly slim girl punched her in the face when she accused her of being anorexic. Now people think I gave my daughter her new black eye. FML

Today, I got a call from my daughter’s school. Apparently, she told her teacher about the “special massages” mommy gives her. I’m a licensed massage therapist, and I massage my daughter with lavender to help her sleep. Now everyone thinks I’m a weirdo. FML

Ironic, isn't it?

Today, I got into an argument with my mother, when she snapped and called me a son of a bitch. I said that made no sense, because I'm a girl, and it'd only really confirm that she's a bitch. She then grounded me for insulting her. FML

I always take it as a compliment. Because it's true and the world is crazy so I actually really enjoy being one.

It had to be done. Kids have to learn not to use words they don't fully comprehend. You'll be vindicated when she evades a blumpkin. They sound cute and harmless, but they are not!!!

Then ask why they use it and explain it? Why punish them right away for something they didn't intend to do?

This is a lesson for you. Next time your children say obscure things, ask them why they said it / what they actually meant. You jumped the gun.

Sounds pretty harsh. Maybe you should rethink your parenting style. That poor kid :( Look up “narcissistic parenting.”
