Today, my son threw the biggest fit in history about going to the dentist. He broke a whole stack of plates, overflowed the bathtub, let the dog loose, and kicked his father when he tried to calm him down. My son is 17. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my son is going through a rebellious phase. He's taken to wearing leather and chains, listening to death metal music all day in his room alone, and screaming at me in public places. He was fired from his part-time job for swearing at customers. My son is 29 years old. FML
Today, my son threw a temper tantrum and told me I “should have aborted him” and threatened to run away from home. Why? Because I nicely asked him to share his french fries with his sister. My son is 17. FML
Today, my son had a screaming meltdown because I told him to clean his own room and that I refuse to be treated like his personal maid. He’s 16. 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, my 14 year-old daughter threw a massive fit over showering. She dislodged the shower curtain rod and threatened to beat us with it if we ever force her to shower again. FML
Today, my son thought it was a good idea to spray deodorant into his mouth because he wanted fresh breath. This resulted in him passing out. My son is 17. FML
Today, my wife asked our 17 year-old son to clean his room. Following up, he lied to his mom and said it was clean. After rechecking his room, he began to throw things and I returned to find holes punched in the walls. I went and patched the holes, after which he immediately kicked more holes. FML
Today, I caught my son trying to punch his own teeth out so he'd get more money from the tooth fairy. FML
Today, I had to go into school for the third time this week because my son is claiming he's on bath salts and biting all his classmates. My son is 16. FML
Today, my 16-year-old son broke two of his fingers playing with Play-Doh. FML

Sounds like someone still needs his ass whooped! I understand he's 17, but if you want to act like a child than you should be treated like a child!

It's about time for the parents to take control by finding a way to not let him get his way, or seek professional for his aggressive behaviour. If you let this one slip, who knows what he will do the next time he doesn't want to do something that needs to be done.

No matter what a 17 year old does you don't spank them. Should we start spanking bank robbers and rapist too? A more age appropriate punishment would be effective. Has someone tried to spank me at 17 I would have simply walked away and hit back if they actually touched me. I don't take too kindly to being hit.

Ok, for those of you who are saying ops kid deserves to be punched kicked etc. pleas shut up. A friend of mine is constantly abused by her father, CPS won't do shit because she won't show her scars. Why won't she show her scars? She is afraid of what her father will do to her if she reviles the truth. As for op, he/she might have deserved it. Maybe they gave into temper tantrums often enough before for ops kid to think that's how to get what he wants. The kid should be grounded and forced to pay for any damages in my opinion. What If ops kid has anger management issues? Pleas don't judge until you know the whole story.

Jeez, you know how to turn a mosquito into an elephant. You urgently need to realise there's a huge difference between punishing your child when it's misbehaving and abusing your child. Just because some "parents" enjoy beating the crap out of their kids only because they can doesn't mean other parents shouldn't teach their kids how to behave.

There's a difference between a good ass whoopin and abuse. Abuse makes the target bleed, or leaves emotional scars. A whoopin makes it hurt to sit for a couple hours and teaches a lesson. Have been subjected to both, and I know the difference. Every kid needs a good whoopin every once in a while. Just make sure you use the right end of the belt, and everything should be good. And as the kid is 17, it may take a little extra roughing up to do the job, feel free to backhand him across the mouth.
