Today, my daughter somehow got a hold of the lighter we keep on top of the fridge. I found this out when she snuck up behind me and thought it would be fun to set my hair on fire. FML

Today, my daughter tried to cover up her relapse into pyromania by explaining to me that the reason our carpet caught on fire was because a hot coal somehow worked its way free from the fireplace. Our fireplace is electric. FML

Not the sharpest crayon in the box
Today, my idiot daughter used my wax warmer to try to give herself a bikini wax using old crayons. Not sure which YouTube idiot she learned it from, but the stench of melted crayon, burnt hair, and singed flesh isn’t a smell I’ll soon be forgetting. FML

Today, I came home to find my eight-year-old son had basically set fire to the kitchen, after trying to practice some kind of stupid shit he'd seen on TV called "fire bending." FML

In other words: "I fail as a parent, Internet is raising my kids." I agree, **** your life. And **** your kids' lives, too.

DUDE. WHY ARE YOU RESTRICTIN YOURE DAUGHTERS CREATIVE MIND? LET HER BE FREEEE LIKE THEE WIND YOU FOOL. KIDS IN AMERICAN LIFE NEED TO LEARN TO THINK AS INDIVIDUALS NOT AS ROBOT ZOMBIES LIKE YOU'RE TRYIN TO TRAIN THEM INTO BEIN. DON'T BE LIKE THAT. ONE TIME I THREW GAS IN A FIRE AND IT WAS GREAT! I BURNED DOWN LIKE HALF A FOREST. THAT SHIT WAS SICCCKKKK.

Actually, your fault for not monitoring her internet access!! If she's young enough to do something that stupid, she's too young to be online unsupervised!

Absolutely get rid of her internet now. She can't be trusted to not do stupid things that she sees done online, well then she shouldn't be seeing them online! I also agree that she should've been supervised while online. You really need to open your eyes and see that children should be protected while online, not left to do their own thing.

Stealz her interwebz, put it in a bag, and throwz it into the fireplace. Then maybe she'll see what fire can do.

How can anyone click anything other then YDI, his daughter copied something she saw on the internet, meaning clearly the parents weren't paying attention to what she was looking at online or what she was doing. It could have been ALOT worse, then everyone would be blaming youtube. YDI for being one of today's classic SHITTY parents!

You expect parents to be able to monitor every little thing that you see online? Not every parent can stay at home all day and i doubt any parent would want to monitor their kid online 24/7, not to mention being super invasive to watch over their shoulder every minute. It's as easy as alt-tabbing when they do come in, whether that be something bad (****) or anything else.
