Today, I asked my 5-year-old nephew to clean up his mess of toys. He responded by kicking my foot. My bandaged foot which was still recovering from my surgery last week. I'm probably going to need another operation to fix the damage. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my wheelchair was delivered. My brother and I were messing around with it when he rolled over my already injured foot. At least surgery is next week. FML
Today, my nephew stabbed me in the knee with a colouring pencil. The hospital says he ripped a hole in a tendon and I need surgery to fix it or one day it'll snap. I’ll have a limp for the rest of my life. FML
Today, I went to see a podiatrist, two weeks after having major surgery on my abdomen, only to be told I might need surgery on my foot. FML
Today, mere hours after getting my knee out of plaster and walking normally again, I stepped on a giant nail, which went through my shoe and came out of the top of my foot. Surgery on the splintered bone, bandages, and no putting weight on it for at least 2 weeks. Here I go again. FML
Today, I’m being kept awake in the middle of the night trying to distract myself with trashy TV as my entire foot radiates with pain. The surgery was a week ago. FML
Today, I was washing the dishes when I gave myself a nasty gash on my leg from the open dishwasher door. After five minutes of cleaning up the blood and wrapping it up, I came back to finish the job only to drop a plate and send broken shards into my foot. FML
Today, I was visiting my 8-year-old nephew. He told me he learned about fire safety, so I asked him what he'd do if there were a fire right now. He pushed me out of the way and I fell, then he ran over me and out the front door, leaving me on the floor in pain. FML
Today, while helping a child through a tantrum, I was kicked and my hand broke. The bone is completely in half and fixing it will require plates, screws, and surgery along with months of recovery. Another day on the job. FML
Today, my dad ran over my foot with his work truck. FML
Today, as revenge for being grounded for bullying a kid at school, my eight-year-old son flung a handful of Lego into my path as I walked barefoot into the kitchen. I'm still in pain. FML

I'd kick him back.

Oh man, that's bad. Tell his mother! Hopefully he'll clean up his toys in the future when he learns what he did.

Instruct Mommy and Daddy that you will take little junior for a walk outside and you will be instructing the little f*cker to pick out a switch that will light his ass up courtesy dear ol Mom and Dad.

"Pick out a switch that will light his ass up"?

Creative wording meaning "whip his ass till its red" with a switch/small thin tree branch.

I think #35 has a point. If a child does something to physically harm another, they sometimes don't stop until they're hurt the same way. If they're young enough, sometimes they'll take the reaction of the other person being hurt as a joke, and laugh and turn it into a game. Like children who bite others and then laugh and run away, only to return and do it again.

Awe! That kid sounds spoiled

I'd say a spanking is in order.

No. Your sibling and their spouse created that little demonic beast and they are the ones that will control his actions until he learns respect enough to not injure so much as an ant. Feel free to quote me on this.

This little shit kid's mom and dad should pay for the surgery, whether they have home owners insurance or not. Then the need to beat some sense into this kid. Then use him as a poster child for birth control.

Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I just can't believe that little brat would do that much damage!

I do agree that the parents should pay for the surgery and that your nephew needs to have some sort of large consequence. My sister broke her arm and someone's kid yanked on it, causing it to break even further. She was almost done with the cast and had to spend another seven months in a cast. The parents told their son that he had hurt someone and would not also be spending seven months "healing." He was grounded until he cast came off.
