Today, while babysitting my neighbors' kids, their oldest son used a paint pen on the carpet. The boy blamed me and I got fired. He's only 3 and can barely talk. FML

Today, while babysitting a 9-year-old boy, I stubbed my toe on a coffee table. I yelled, "SON OF A…" but managed to stop myself before saying the last part. The boy yelled, "You were gonna say bitch! I'm telling mom and dad!" and, despite my desperate attempts to dissuade him, he did just that. Guess who's fired. FML
Today, the woman I babysat for blamed me for the cut on her son's face, and fired me with no pay for not looking after him properly. He already had the cut when I arrived. FML
Today, I slipped on a crayon a little girl threw on the floor, causing me to drop the tray of water I was carrying, making me spill it all over her. After getting cussed out by her mom, I was fired for making a customer unhappy. FML
Today, I was fired because a 10-year-old shat his pants and couldn't follow directions. FML
Today, I babysat the brattiest and most foul-mouthed 8-year-old I've ever met. After I survived three hours of it, his parents finally came home. He claimed I'd invited a boy over and that we did "stuff" on the couch all evening. They believed him. I didn't get paid, to say the least. FML
Today, I had to clean up after the kid who discovered he could finger paint with his poo. FML
Today, my son drew in Sharpie all over the wall, so I spanked him as punishment. When my boss came over for dinner, my son shouted, "Daddy made me take my punishment in the butt." FML
Today, I was babysitting my neighbor's kid. We were playing in the yard, when he fell and got a small scratch on his leg. I gasp, and he takes a huge breath in and yells, "FUUUCK!!!" as loud as possible. The parents thought it was me, and the mother slapped me in the face. FML
Today, while babysitting, I got stabbed by a 7 year-old with a mechanical pencil. FML
Today, I got fired from a great babysitting job because the little girl said I was boring. FML

Criminals these days start so young! Before long he'll be yanking car stereos from their ports and streaking down the road.

He might have had practice streaking already lol. I know a lot of 3 year old boys who think it's funny to run around naked lol.

Not gonna lie but I would have fired you too. You have a job, to watch my kids. If they are able to find this pen, crawl around then use it then clearly you aren't watching them as you should be.

The kid was 3 and the oldest of the neighbor's kids, this implies there were one or more younger kids. Yeah OP should have been trying to keep an eye on him but you can't be everywhere at once. It takes less than a minute for a 3 year old to find a paint pen (that the parents have in the house, within reach) and draw on the carpet.

I wouldn't trust you with my life if my 3 year old managed to outsmart you either.

you don't have to talk to assign blame, a simple point will do.

While you may not have been the one to paint the carpet, clearly you weren't keeping an eye on him and should have been fired anyway. You can't leave a 3-year-old alone to their own devices and not expect them to get into something...

You should have burned the carpet and blamed that pyromaniac who is running around!
