you need to teach children things, they never just know them on their own.
I think we all learned to close the dryer door before turning it on because we all never saw the dryer on with the door open...
Why? Most devices function just fine with a door open. The only exceptions that I know of are microwaves, dryers, and dishwashers. If you haven't had your kid working with those before or showed them using those before then I don't think it's reasonable for them to just know it. I'll admit that I probably would've tried it but my parents encouraged me to explore and be inquisitive. So I naturally have been troubleshooting things. There wouldn't be logic behind it. I would have just been trying random things like pressing buttons again, checking the plug, and the like. But lots of parents don't encourage those values, especially for young girls.
It's called problem solving. Most people that age can figure out how to work a washing machine without any help.
Well I guess she had to learn at some point. On the bright side, she knows for the future and can help with laundry now
Yea, I thought the same. A suprising number of 15 year olds have never done laundry.
Seriously, go to the laundry room of any college in a froshling dorm during their first month or so. Tons of kids never figured out how the machines work.
At least she is not 20 or something
That's horrifying.
Wouldn't closing the door be common sense?
Not if the kid hasnt seen laundry done before.
Yup... Well let's hope she's hot cause I don't think she's going to Harvard...
hey it worked without the door for that guy eating noodles...
it's time she learned how to do laundry
While that is common sense you're the one that should have taught her...
America going fully stupid.
Because this definitely reflects America as a whole.
I think judging a whole country based on one person reflects more stupidity than the 15 year old in this FML.
And you can't spell dryer. How old are you?
I thought that was spelled wrong
Dryer is the actual machine that dries clothing. Drier is another form of more dry. So that means... A dryer makes clothes drier. The op used the wrong form.
Finally, someone said it
#34 Thanks cap't
Sarcastic... I don't think you know what that word means.
Does she happen to be blonde?
