Today, my daughter used the kids potty chair on her own for the first time. Bad: The bucket was not in it so poo hit the floor. Good: she tried to clean it... Bad: with her socks. Good: she decided to clean the socks. Bad: she used the wall. Good: she finally called dad. FML

anyone else agree that this fml would be 10 times better if it ended with Bad: I'm dad. FML

I DO!

I CAN SEE THE DAUGHTER FUTURE. A DUM BLOND BITCH FROM THE MOM SIDE

#104 - On 09/11/2009 at 9:49am by CHRIS1920

I can see your future: a flaming retard with less than half a brain left. Seriously the kid is young so obviously she wouldn't understand that. At least she tried to clean up her mess and had the brains to call someone who knew how to clean up the mess. Seriously if all you will do is consider little children to be as smart as you then I wonder how smart they will be when they grow up.

#109 - On 09/11/2009 at 8:02pm by xSinful

That's not his future. That already happened.

shouldn't someone be watching her? especially somewhere with hard floors and lots of stuff that could probably do her harm?

#2 - On 09/10/2009 at 10:25am by AnthonyD86

Reply to #2: I hope you never have kids, you're going to be an overprotective nervous wreck. When you have children your house generally doesn't have "things that could do her harm" around every corner. Also, by the time they are old enough to use the potty on their own they don't need constant supervision, it's not like they just learned to walk and are falling all over the place, they generally can talk and move about quite freely by this time. Lighten up. At #13 you're an ass. OP welcome to the wonderful world of potty training, we've all done it, we made it through ok!

#19 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:13am by whyohwhyohwhy

i disagree.

Grown people that have gone through school make stupid choices all the time, what makes babies that much more capable? just cuz a kid can go to potty themselves doesn't mean they won't mistake medicine for candy, slip and land head first, or other things. A kid should not be left home alone without supervision.
i hope YOU (#19) don't reproduce. you'd be a lousy parent.

OP, i love the way u phrased this fml. but kids will always be kids. have fun :)

#38 - On 09/10/2009 at 12:52pm by CryingHowls

Where does it say the kid was left "home alone"? Idiot.

The wording was cute, OP, and your daughter sounds adorable.

#41 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:08pm by girlygirl666

You know... After reading all these FMLs... Maybe children SHOULD be supervised more, haha.

Anyways, OP: FYL.

On the brightside... She didn't use your pants like I did when I tried to wipe myself with my hands....

#45 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:56pm by dudeitsdanny

thanks for your comment #38 i have three year old twins that are potty training. My husband and i are very attentive parents (then again, we have a VERY small house so they can't really get out of earshot), thus not leaving "medicine to be mistaken for candy" anywhere where a child can get to it. The bathroom door is always open to them if they need to go and potty chairs are at toddler height so there will never be the "slipping and falling on the head" you speak of, and where does it say anything about the child being left home alone?

#54 - On 09/10/2009 at 3:19pm by whyohwhyohwhy

Seriously, what house does not have hard floors. Carpet or not, it is still very hard, and a child could find a way to get hurt in a padded cell.

#76 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:03pm by Udxero

lol true true
i ran into walls as a baby... lol i still do
op sucks for u

#89 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:08pm by fmylifegurl

I lol'd at this FML.

To the people who take FML too literally: lighten up and don't bother coming here if all you can think about is trying to sound smart by accusing FML's to be fake regardless of the fact that this site is just here for a good laugh.

Dude, you are a fucking moron, its just a kid, they always do stupid stuff. You are a fucking dick how would you like it if you were retarded any way? Dont say shit like that unless you know what the person is going through you fucking dick. Shut your fucking mouth and go hang your self. I fucking hate when dumb fucks like you make fun of mentally challenged people, its not like they chose to be like that. You fucking prick.

#27 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:38am by 07_MKV

Angry much?

#30 - On 09/10/2009 at 12:01pm by musu

No, 27 has every right to be. 13 obviously doesn't know much about children. I'm 21 and no where near to having my own kids, but I already know the type of things to expect...like this.

And yeah 13, don't say rude things like that. It's a fucking toddler; she's still learning. At least she was considerate and SMART enough to know that it needed to be cleaned and she was trying to help.

#34 - On 09/10/2009 at 12:30pm by gigi37

#13 is obviously the star of her repeat 2nd grade English class, seeing as how she thinks "You are kid is..." is proper English.

#36 - On 09/10/2009 at 12:39pm by Intoxicunt

haha so true #36!
but seriously #13 chill out. people had it right when they said at least she was trying to help clean up. shes probably like 2. give the kid a break

#75 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:01pm by DanceRox9008

Wow, you are good at guessing ages. She turned 2 in august.

#78 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:11pm by Udxero

If they're quiet for 5 minutes, go check on them.

#15 - On 09/10/2009 at 10:49am by aback

oh goodness. That's funny = ] what a mess to clean up though!

Oh to all the people who say "where were you" "shouldn't you have been watching you kid". Seriously, there isn't a single person that can keep an eye on their child at ALL times! You can't cook dinner or clean the house and watch you kid watch t.v. or play with their toys or take a nap all at the same time.

#16 - On 09/10/2009 at 10:55am by KBear816

Oh, this is funny. Good: You having a sense of humor. She sounds like she just wants to do the right thing!!

#18 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:08am by mollie1

YDI. 1. That young, why wasn't anyone watching her. 2. If you're trying to potty train her, why would you ever not have the bucket in place?

#20 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:14am by youthink

Win FML. The way this is worded is pretty sweet.

#21 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:17am by Intoxicunt

"Your kid's a moron" Please punctuate correctly before debating someone's intelligence.

#25 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:32am by DannyD

I agree with #25, but on this site, only about 30% of users know the difference between "your" and "you're". It's sad when people just accept not knowing 2nd grade words. =/

#26 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:33am by Intoxicunt

Whoops, I didn't read the original comment and assumed you were correcting the "your". My point stands, though.

#28 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:43am by Intoxicunt

It's better than when people try to abbreviate "you're" as "ur," though...

#29 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:57am by your_face

Good point.

That's about where the last three letters come in.

#43 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:24pm by Escapist28

I'm sure OP would rather have his daughter call him, than continue to try 'helping.' Yeah he had to clean it up, but its better than NOT getting it cleaned up.

#52 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:47pm by boatkicker

Very original way to write an FML, if I could I would nominate this for 'most realistic what-an-fml-is-supposed-to-be' type FML.

#42 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:12pm by snavula

haha, I agree. Real nice way to write the FML.

#44 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:41pm by Baselisk

Would it be ok with you if I added your story to my website? You can check it out at www.kidsmakemelol.blogspot.com. I'm looking for lots of funny kid stories to add. Thanks!

#46 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:56pm by corriland

Yeah, add i don't mind. I thought it was kind of funny. Other than the fact it was gross.

#77 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:08pm by Udxero

how cute :P

#47 - On 09/10/2009 at 1:57pm by Meme1988

another how the hell is this FML?!?

#48 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:05pm by lobby0ne

Easy, all you have to do is have some kids, and have one of them do something like this...or poop in the tub during a bath...or remove a poopie diaper in the middle of the night and play in it... At the time it happens it is definitely fml, after, it's very funny. Now, all of you without kids- please refrain from judgment because you have no idea what you are talking about. You need to be a parent to understand parenting, books and lofty ideals are a very poor substitute.

#81 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:26pm by ccr69

i love how this was written

#49 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:18pm by gordonskatespc

Your daughter is great, she really tried to help you out. And she is now potty trained!

#50 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:21pm by Calaura9

This is hilarious! I would not say this FML for you, but an FML for dad because she finally called for him. So it would be a FDL.

#51 - On 09/10/2009 at 2:41pm by ely46

reply to #48 and 51;; The OP is the dad. It would not be an FML if it was the mom writing this but the dad had to clean the shit off the socks wall and floor. OP;; I love how you wrote this hahah

#53 - On 09/10/2009 at 3:01pm by dcait_1196

Why wasn't the bucket in the shitter when your daughter was going to shit in it? Your fault.

LOL! xD

#62 - On 09/10/2009 at 4:28pm by x_Leopard_x

This situation completely sucks, but to me it is pretty clear that "You Deserved It:" The bucket should have been in the potty-training chair. If that one simple action had been followed, there would be no problems whatsoever. Your daughter would go to the bathroom there--it sounds like she did everything right--and there would be no mess, and no dirty socks or walls. YDI for forgetting the bucket!

#63 - On 09/10/2009 at 4:33pm by whererthefriends

Is there any way this could possibly be better worded? I think not.

#65 - On 09/10/2009 at 5:22pm by pentameter

#70 - On 09/10/2009 at 7:04pm by TheLizardKing

haha. Don't you just love little kids and the way they try to do things on their own...and I just want to give you props...because that would have been a really stupid fml, but the way you worded it was pretty genius.

#71 - On 09/10/2009 at 7:18pm by ditzykayla

Okay, I wanted to clarify a few things for some people. During this event, I was in the living room she was in her bedroom. She was actually laying down for bed; this was close to 10:00AM she was supposed to be already sleeping. So I thought she was already asleep. As for the bucket in the potty chair, my wife decided since my daughter is a big girl we would place it in her room, so if she needed to go at night she could. A bad decision on our part I assure you. She removed the bucket herself before the post occurred. Again she was lying down and suppose to be asleep, I did not know she did this either. Needless to say the potty chair is no longer in their room.

#74 - On 09/10/2009 at 7:58pm by Udxero

Ah, so she called for you, meaning she yelled for you, not got on the phone.
Gotta love English, too lol

Man potty in the room was a silly idea. Why show a kid the bathroom is their room? Asking for a brown toybox then.

#79 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:15pm by DameGreyWulf

Lol talk to my wife about the potty in the room. I agree it was NOT a good idea. wife thought it might save on diapers some how? I don't know....

#80 - On 09/10/2009 at 8:24pm by Udxero

Damn! All of my kids hated their naptimes and more than once used their naptimes ''creatively''. Kudos on the bright ideas, sorry about the outcome!

#87 - On 09/10/2009 at 10:21pm by qwertyone

Funny but cute. Your daughter sounds like a smart child if she knew that something was wrong and tried to fix it:)
How is she a moron? Were you not a child at one point in time? Judging by your comment I think she is way more smart than you. Special ed classes? Seriously? Who the fuck are you to say that? It's not like people chose to be mentally challenged or handicap or black or white. If you were to have a handicap child I assure you that you'll regret this imbicilic comment. Some people are so ignorant it makes me upset to call America my birth place.
OP: say hi to the kid for me

#88 - On 09/10/2009 at 10:53pm by Egotistical

how do u know she's a kid? maybe she's 17...

#90 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:18pm by jack9ooo

She's a child because the OP wassaid she just turned two. Any more questions?

#92 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:32pm by Egotistical

Fucking iPod touches always mess up what you are trying to say. I ment the OP said she just turned two

#93 - On 09/10/2009 at 11:38pm by Egotistical

oh no! Not things that can do her harm! To all over protective parents: GET A GOD DAMN LIFE
