Today, I got the car of my dreams. My daughter also learned how to write her name. Now I have "LAUREN" across the side of my car. FML

I'm confused as to how the only way to not be a bad parent is to sit in front of the child and stare at it like a ghoul until it's 8 years old.

did she carve it it cuz how does she have a pocket knife and she'd have to be four or five I doubt a five year old wants to do that

Oh come on, why is it that every time there's a FML about kids, all the perfect parents suddenly come here and say "YDI, you should have watched your kid, you're a bad parent, let's call social services etc. etc." ?? It's a CHILD, for God's sake! All children, no matter how well you supervise them, do stupid and funny things like this one. That's what makes children adorable. If you keep your kids tied up in a leash and don't let them do absolutely anything, they'll grow into retards. Besides, if that kid knew how to write, it means she's about 5 years old, maybe even older. At that age, a kid doesn't need constant supervision like a 2 years old. OP, sorry for your car. But at least, when your daughter grows up, you'll have funny things to remember at family reunions :)

thank you I was thinking the same thing, just because your kid does something bad does not mean they arnt supervised enough it means they are kids and parents only have two eyes and two hands and a million things to do. Even if kids are younger but there are more of them at least on of them gets into something while the parent is tending to the other. Hell just last week my two year old made scrambled eggs on the floor while I was putting the one year old down for a nap.

I don't have an issue with lettin the kid play without watching them all the time. I'm just thinking that playing in the driveway outside while unsupervised is a little, um, not good. if it was a garage then that's alright I guess. you can't do much about that once they figure out those dang door knobs!! rofl

If you really were a good parent, your dream car would have your child's name emblazoned on it prominently. YDI for not getting a personalized plate that says "LAUREN!" My mom just got a new RAV4 and is proud that I engraved my name on the hood.

Don't you now wish you gave her a shorter name like- Bo? or watched her better?

When I was a kid, tow 6-year-old neighbours carved lines into my dad's car with a stone from the garden and finished it off with my brother's name to try to pin the blame on him (he was only 3 though, he couldn't even write his own name yet). At least your kid presumably didn't do it out of spite. You can get it fixed.

use some rubbing alcohol on it and it'll come off easily

YDI for naming her Lauren... in all honesty though, this could be a great opportunity for you to advertise her.
