Today, I actually heard my 14 year-old son muse to himself, "If I can drive drunk in Grand Theft Auto, how hard could it be in real life?" FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I let my 19-year-old son drive my Lexus to his date. At 11:00 p.m., I watched him pull into the driveway with a broken taillight, marks and scratches all over the car, the front bumper missing, and him being nearly passed out because he's so drunk. FML
Today, I came home to find my 14-year-old son attempting to get drunk off aftershave. FML
Today, my 15-year-old son was waiting in the car for me after driving around to build up hours for his permit. He then decided it was a good idea to quickly drive over to catch a Pokemon nearby. He didn't count on getting pulled over for texting and driving while underage without an adult though. FML
Today, I let my son take my car out for a spin, since he just got his licence. He didn't make it out of our street before totaling it. FML
Today, I caught my 14-year-old daughter stealing alcohol from me. After berating her for half-an-hour I finally said, "At least you're not doing drugs." She gave me a guilty smile and sheepishly said, "At least I'm not a prostitute?" FML
Today, thanks to Grand Theft Auto, I found myself seriously thinking about holding up an armored bank truck when I saw it in traffic. FML
Today, I picked up my idiot 20 year-old son from a party. He was shit-faced drunk and managed to drop his vape out the window as I was driving. He tried to open the door of the moving car to get out and look for it, and I had to grab him and pull him back in. Legally, this moron is an adult. FML
Today, I had to bail my son out of jail, because he's a wimp and wouldn't last a night in there. His crime: pissing through the open windows of passing cars after losing a bet with his friends. I feel like if he gave me grandkids, they'd be born with half a brain. FML
Today, my 14-year-old daughter told me she's pregnant and plans on dropping out of school to live a life on the road with her boyfriend. FML
Today, I found out that my 16-year-old son bought a huge amount of grape juice, because he thought he could store it under his bed and wait for it to turn to wine. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It's M for Mature. He shouldn't be playing if he thinks like that because he isn't Mature enough to understand.

Yeah you all say that video games like GTA don't have an effect on you so good for you all. But that's not the case for this kid and a lot of other kids. OP YDI for letting your kid play GTA of all games, and you should redeem yourself by not letting him play anymore. The responsibility lies with the parents, so don't complain for letting him play it.

Oh my lord. No one understands. You can't blame a virtual game. It's the child believing an unrealistic game and or does not have a good balance on reality. Yes, the game is mature, but you don't now how completely mature the kid acts normally.

Your kid is an idiot. Even at 14 he should know how wrong that is and that he could kill someone. You better set him straight.

Guys, seriously? The kid is FOURTEEN. OK sure, he's an idiot, but 14-year olds should be allowed to play M-rated games. ESRB had only JUST started to allow uncensored boobs in M-rated games. I'm 14 and own several M-rated games. I'm still a very nice person. I say "thank you" to almost everyone, and I have a lot of nice friends. I played Vice City, GTA 3, San Andreas, and Chinatown Wars. I played Bulletstorm, and that doesn't mean that I'm about to kick someone 20 feet, drag them back in with a lasso, and strap a grenade to their ass while kicking them into a spike pit! Besides, maturity != age, and anyone who thinks differently is an idiot.
