Today, during a heated argument with my son, I lost my temper and called him a son of a bitch. He enthusiastically agreed. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I grounded my son after finding out that he's been bullying other kids at school. He got mad and screamed at me, calling me a "bastard". Instead of defending me, my wife got pissed and accused me of having taught our son to swear like that. I can never win. FML
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
Today, I yelled at my oldest son for picking his little brother up by the throat. Only to then be yelled at my my mother-in-law for hurting his feelings. FML
Today, I realized that both my husband and son refer to me as "the bitch." FML
Today, I accused my son of faking being sick. He then blew chunks all over me. FML
Today, I had to pick my son up from school after he beat the crap out of another student. The words that made him go nuts were apparently, "You mad, bro?" FML
Today, I told my son he couldn't have a toy. He threw a fit, looked me in the eye, and screamed, "Daddy's right! You are a bitch!" The whole store was watching. FML
Today, my dad and I got into an argument, and he ended up calling me a son of a bitch. My mom heard and started arguing with him over him calling her a bitch. Three hours later, I'm now staying at my gran's house with my mom and hoping her threats of a divorce weren't for real. FML
Today, I picked up my four year old son from daycare. As I was putting him in his car seat, I asked him if he had fun. He yelled, "Shut it, bitch!" FML
Today, I asked my son to repeat something he had said. He got right up in my face and screamed that it was time I got a "fucking hearing aid." His siblings agreed with him. My husband agreed so much, he won’t even punish him for yelling and swearing, because, “Honestly, we all wanted to scream it.” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You really had that coming to you. But I can't say much as my own mother tends to be a big cusser and loves calling me nasty names. Long story short, don't become my mother.

No. It is her way of parenting. It's not your job to criticize her. She is teaching him discipline. Some parents swear some parents don't, and it's up to them to decide if it's ok or not, not you.

Bitches are female dogs, and dogs are loyal. And if your wife is loyal then that could be a compliment, so everybody wins.

There's a big difference between swearing and calling your child a swear word out of temper. One of those is a matter of preference. The other is hurtful, damaging to the self esteem, and is a bad example to set for your child about how to constructively deal with anger.

So you're saying it's ok to use profanity towards children when they misbehave? Since the context of this FML shows that her son knows about the word bitch and what it means, what if this were to be the case where this was the first time he had heard that word, his mother never told him not to use it at anyone, and he used it at, let's say, a classmate he had a disagreement with or a teacher who's yelling at him for misbehaving and he doesn't take it well, would you still think it's right to swear at children as a means of discipline? Even if they already know what the word(s) mean, that still doesn't make it right.

41, your name is apt. These people DO have a reason to question the parenting of this woman. note I didn't say skills. name calling stays with you for a long time. if your parents, who are supposed to give you a good foundation of self esteem and unconditional love, call you names, how is a teenager going to tell the difference between a frustrated mother and her opinions. they don't have a frame of reference for that. it is wrong.
