Today, a four-year-old said a word that I didn't know the meaning of. I had to look up the definition. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my four year-old daughter asked me what the word “necrophilia” means. I have no idea where she even heard that. FML
Today, I heard my son use the word "exacerbated". I had to look it up to see if he had correctly used it, which he had, because I couldn't remember what it meant. I'll be 23 next week. He's not even 4. FML
Today, a tourist from an English-as-second-language country taught me a new word. In English. FML
Today, my 4 year-old daughter's favorite expression became "shit balls." FML
Today, at work I put myself squarely in the lame / old people category when I foolishly asked out loud what FML meant. FML
Today, a 4 year-old saw me and started crying and screaming like heck. I mean, I knew that I didn't look good, but this is too much. FML
Today, I had to use a dictionary before I realized I was being flirted with. FML
Today, my four year-old very loudly asked me if the little person she saw at the shops was like that because he didn't eat his vegetables. He definitely heard. FML
Today, my four-year-old daughter called me by her mom's new boyfriend's name. Three different times. FML
Today, my 3-year-old son said to me, "Fuck a duck, Daddy." I have no idea where he heard this. FML

YDI. Brush up on your syntax and grammar. Unless of course the word was something totally made up.

What's with all the YDI's? Without knowing the word, it seems unfair. It might actually be an uncommon or difficult word that the kid just happened to pick up from his parents.

It's hard to vote on this one without knowing what the word was.

If it were some slang like yoloswag then why would the op deserve it? Wouldn't it be a good thing that they didn't know?
