Today, my son decided he wanted roasted marshmallows. It would've been fine, except he put the entire bag into the oven I had preheating for pizza and caught it on fire. FML

How old is he? I want to know if he's young, and didn't know better, or if he's old enough for a smack, and a "How could I have raised this kid to be a ******* moron?".

Nothing like the smell of burning plastic to wake you up.

Wait, you mean that's not how you're supposed to roast marshmallows?

And of course you can't eat anything with melted plastic on it. Just do what I did. Speared it with a fork or knife and put it over the stove gas burner. Microwave can also work.

Now that's what I call a sticky situation...

Time to provide the kid, hopefully it is a kid, some basic cooking lessons. By the age of six my girlfriend's daughter could do basic things in the kitchen, though obviously we watched her carefully. Hopefully your son is just really young, had a craving, and didn't think it through. The basic kitchen safety and cooking protocol would be a good idea, I mean if he is a really young child, go with just the kitchen safety stuff, tossing things in a hot oven could end a lot worse than melted plastic. Could have stuck a bottle of Drano in there just as easily.
