Today, my 4 year old son excitedly asked me if he'd get to see drones at the zoo. He apparently thinks drones are living creatures. I guess I can go ahead and spend his college savings on shoes. FML

Today, I finally bought the toy my two year-old son always wanted. He would always tap on the TV when the commercial for it would appear. I gave him the gift, and he started playing with the bag it came in. FML

Today, my son turned 8. We watched as he unwrapped a $55 Nerf gun, extra 'bullets', new shoes and a school bag with his favorite TV character on the front and a action figure inside. As he finished he looked me straight in the eyes and says, "That's great ma, but seriously what'd you get me?". FML

Today, my 4 year old son thought it was funny to put money in the shredder. He stuck over 500 dollars in it. FML

Today, after explaining to my two year old that we were going bra shopping, he decided to announce to the entire bank that we were going to buy Mommy some boobies. FML

The Talk

Today, I asked my 13-year-old son if he thought he was mature enough for a talk about "the birds and the bees." His response was, "They fly, so what? Why would I care?" FML

Fatherly pride

Today, my wife insisted we start a college fund for our son, even though from where we were sat in the kitchen, we could clearly see him eating ice cream he'd just dropped on the floor, while picking at his belly button. He’s 13. College, sure. FML

Today, I took my 4-year-old son to the bank with me. He asked why we were going, and I explained that I had a couple of checks that they would turn into money. When we got in line, he loudly exclaimed that "Mommy has checks for money!" Except "checks" sounded almost exactly like "sex". FML

Today, my 3 year old kid wanted to do something nice. I told him he could pick up some of his toys. He washed my new Iphone instead. FML

Come on now, he's four. How is he supposed to know that unless you teach him?

What is wrong with you? He’s not even in school yet. What he doesn’t know is on you.

Exactly. This isn't a case of "dumb kid", but "mom who wants an excuse to buy new shoes".

Drones are living creatures. Do some research on bees. Probably not the kind he meant, but still...

Cut him some slack. He's only four years old, so OF COURSE he doesn't know all the basics yet. It's your job to teach him.

I can understand your reaction if he's in 3rd grade or above, but come on, you're acting like that over somebody who didn't even start Kindergarten yet?

Get the shoes and send him to a lesser college.

Drones are real creatures (male bees), but that's probably not the kind of drone he is thinking of.

F.O.C.U.S. **** off cuz ur stupid. Comes handy when people complain over stupid shit, or when someone wants homework help on every problem because "you know what you're doing." used this a lot in highschool.
