Today, I was in the supermarket when I saw a little boy trying to reach for something on the top shelf. I went over to him and asked if his mom knew where he was. The boy turned around. He was actually a very angry midget. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

Just trying to help
Today, I saw a little boy wandering in the supermarket looking lost and distraught. I gently put my hand on his shoulder and said, “Hey buddy, where’s your mommy?” He screamed, “STRANGER DANGER!” and kicked me in the shin. His actual mom wandered over from the cheese section, gave me a dirty look, and walked off. FML.
Today, I was in a store when a child looked at me and said to his mother "look at that tall man!" His mother replied "he's an evil giant isn't he, darling?" I then mimed being an evil giant to make the kid laugh. His mother slapped me. FML
Today, my friends and I go to a bar and get wasted. I walk around and see a kid. I start yelling, "There's a child in this bar! There's a CHILD in this BAR!" She turns around. She was a midget. FML
Lesson learned
Today, my kid was lying on the floor in Morrisons screaming, no matter what I tried to do, until another mother came, picked him up, and dumped him in the trolley seat. She then looked me up and down and said, “Girl, he’s 4 years-old and 3 feet tall, grow some fucking backbone.” She was so right too. FML
Today, I was at the grocery store, when a little boy looked up at me and asked if I was a prostitute. FML
Today, at my job working retail, I had just finished cleaning and straightening a whole aisle. This kid watched me do the whole thing. When I was done, he stuck his arm out, and ran it down the whole shelf, knocking everything off it. His mother just grabbed his hand and walked away. FML
Today, while working at my local supermarket, I found a boy lost and wandering about, so I took him to the front desk. My reward from his mother was a slap around the face and harsh words for supposedly having kidnapped him. FML
Call CPS, quick
Today, I saw a kid throwing a tantrum in a supermarket. Thinking it was a matter of lack of discipline, I waited for the kid’s mother to come out of the bathroom to tell her how naughty her son was being. I then got to watch her beat her son to the point of unconsciousness. FML
External validation
Today, I was grocery shopping, feeling good about myself, until when I was waiting in line at the checkout, a small kid in his mother's arms in front turned to look straight at me and said, "Ewwwww." FML
Today, I was cashier at work. The line came to a stop, but there was still people there. I kept saying next, but no one moved. I finally looked over the counter where there was a lady who had been standing there the whole time. She was a midget. FML

I don't see how you could make this mistake. People who suffer from dwarfism tend to have a very characteristic body shape that looks nothing like a child...

Why does every FML poster think they need to use 'proceed' in their story? It really doesn't make you sound any smarter... And this is more of a FHL than yours

Come on guys, for just a quick glance from the back it's an easy mistake. You don't expect to see midgets all over the place, when you see a short person you think it's a kid until you see them in more detail, and especially from the front. The OP was just trying to be nice and help what she thought was a poor lost kid. #19, wtf is your problem? First of all, calm down with the insults. Second of all, the OP wasn't being rude at all. He/she was actually trying to be nice. I know from experience, being a little kid lost from your mom at the grocery store is not fun. Edit: #32 is completely right. I swear, "proceed" is in almost every FML.

trying to reach for something on the top shelf, really? I don't think a little boy that small would be trying to do that, especially since a top shelf in a supermarket is like 8 feet high.

I find it funny that you still tagged this as 'Kids'

I didn't get a chance to see 19... :( If OP had helped this person, he/she would have probably gotten shin-kicked for asking. Isn't that what dwarves do, after all?
