Today, my son had to help out at the local retirement home for his community service. He got in serious trouble and came whining to me about it after he tried threatening some of the residents into taking part in a Harlem Shake video. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, a punk-looking college kid was making fun of my mentally handicapped son. Out of anger, I punched him in the face. I got handcuffed and thrown into a police car. The kid stood there laughing and pointing at me. FML
Today, my son broke his arm roughhousing with his brother on a bunk bed. While at the ER, he thought it would be funny to tell a different story to each doctor and nurse, forcing me to speak over him. They found this behavior "suspicious" and reported us to child services. FML
Today, my son's lemonade stand was robbed by a senior citizen. FML
Today, my son came running in, saying he had a project due tomorrow. I asked when it was assigned; he said two weeks ago. I refused to help, saying that he failed to act responsibly and had to live with the consequences. Now he's throwing a tantrum and my wife is screaming at me. FML
Today, my dad walked in on me filming a Harlem Shake video. He stared for a moment, then said, "Son, I don't have a problem with homosexuals, but… nevermind", shook his head and walked out. FML
Today, someone called the police on me because one of my students was going home with me every day. The student is my son. FML
Today, I got called into the principal's office of my son's school. Why? He'd called his teacher a "fudge packer". No more weekends with his uncle. FML
Today, my son paid the price for emulating his idols, aka the sub-human scum on Jersey Shore. He called me from jail and actually had the balls to try to guilt me into bailing him out, after he'd been arrested for punching his girlfriend at a liquor store. FML
Today, I received a call from child care. Apparently, my four year-old boy tried to start a mosh pit during naptime. FML
Today, my son got a beating. Apparently, he went to a club, waited until he saw a couple of girls pulling a duckface for a photo, then rushed over and threw pieces of bread at them. Their boyfriends, not too surprisingly, didn't appreciate this. I had to drive the idiot home from the hospital. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

The poor elderly. After they've lived so long they get harassed by a teenager to do a Harlem shake video.

YDI for raising him badly. He shouldn't be doing community service in the first place!

Why not? Who says he's doing it as punishment? There are lots of other reasons, it looks great on college applications, its required for some school clubs, and its a generally nice thing to do. OP's kid could be doing it for any of those reasons and more!

As a matter of fact, in Ontario, you must do a certain numer of community service hours in high school to receive your diploma.

My high school in California required community service for graduation. And even after that, I volunteer every now and then to clean up a beach or a school or whatever. Someone raised you badly if you think giving back to the community is nothing more than a punishment.

At least he didn't want to make a Justin Bieber music video.

The bigger question is, how poorly did you raise him that he would get in trouble and have to do community service?

You can be the best parent in the world and still have a child or children that take the wrong path and end up in a lot of trouble because of rebellion, peer pressure ect.

Some school systems require a certain number of community service hours to be performed in order to graduate. Both my elementary and high schools had that as a requirement (they were both Catholic). I hope this clears that up for you. :3
