Today, while working at a daycare, I had to change a kid's diaper. This may seem normal for a daycare worker, but not when it's a 7-year-old kid who is still not potty-trained and shat their pants. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, working at a daycare centre, when packing up the kids' beds after sleep time, I slipped and landed in a puddle. Of urine. I had no spare pants. I had to wear them for the rest of my shift. FML
Today, I discovered that my 8-year old is not fully toilet trained when a turd fell out of his pants, shortly after introducing him to his new babysitter. FML
Today, I was working at my day-camp, and one of my little boys told me he had to show me something important. He proudly showed me that he'd crapped his pants. I had to wipe his ass clean. FML
Today, while teaching at a daycare, a child came up to me and asked if he could go to the bathroom. Obviously, I said it was fine. He then pulled his pants down, and pee on my brand new shoes, and all over my leg. FML
Today, at work, I came back from my break to find a child covered in mud. Turns out it wasn't mud. One of the other children had taken all of the poop out of their diaper and smeared it all over the floor, walls, and other children. The other teacher hadn't noticed, and I had to clean it all up. FML
Today, I was fired because a 10-year-old shat his pants and couldn't follow directions. FML
Today, one of the kids at the daycare center I work at was so excited at the fact that his constipation was over, he felt the need to bring me his fecal matter, in his hands, to show me. Guess who had to clean up the aftermath. FML
Today, I was babysitting to make a few extra dollars. While changing one of the kid's diapers, I turned around to find the other kid gone. I turned back around frantically, only to get poop flung at my face. I guess I found him. FML
Today, I was working at the school when one of the kids came crying to me about needing help with his zipper after a little "accident". Forbidden by a district ordinance to touch them in certain areas, there was nothing I could do; to which he cried and pissed his pants. Again. FML
Today, I had explosive diarrhea. I got off the toilet to change my 3 year-old's poopy diaper. He was being stubborn, so I was going to go back to the toilet, which is when he laid down. I thought I could do it. I couldn't. He ran around diaperless as I ran back to the toilet with liquid shit running down my leg. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yikes. I thought kids of a certain age HAD to be toilet trained in order to attend day care.

That is ridiculous that, not only is the 7 year old not potty trained, but is also allowed to attend daycare. And for everyone saying things about the kid possibly having a disability.... If you work at a daycare, you are informed of a child's special needs by your director/supervisor. Plus, if you are spending time with kids daily, you will NOTICE when a child has something wrong with them. I know this because Ive worked in childcare for years..

for all we know OP may be aware of a disability the child has (if they do) and simply did not say so in the fml

If He's seven then he'd be in first grade and schools require kids to be toilet trained.

Not sure if this applies to op, but those who have said "the op wouldn't be complaining if the child had special needs" unfortunately, this isn't true. I work with children with autism, when shadowing at a daycare, I saw some awful treatment of the boy I was there for, he was five and not toilet trained. They totally resented having to do their job and change his nappy (just a pull up so he'd just have to stand there while you pulled it off and put on a fresh one). They'd leave him in it (once I saw this happening I took over and would change it straight away) , act like it was such a big deal, and say awful condescending things to him. So unfortunately, people are often very unkind to those with special needs (again, not saying this is what op has done).

It's appalling how common this is, I've seen it happen in a care home for the elderly/disabled. When I tried to report it, I was told 'compassion is not a job requirement'. Ridiculous. Maybe OP was simply too frustrated at the end of a bad day to add detail.

Someone needs to man up and say something to the parents ! Sometimes the truth hurts! God only knows that,. For god sake talk to them.

At least you just changed a diaper which you take off and dispose of. It's better than scraping the poop out of a kids underwear when they have an accident.

Tell him the next time he does that he will be killed by the Klingons around Uranus.

I thought some daycares REQUIRED the kids be potty trained. May be age related. At 7?? I was trained at 2! There may be something medically up. Or the parents are not hitting THEIR milestones!

Lazy parents.

Some children can't control when they go pee - like my little brother which is also at that age , but I haven't heard of them pooping in their pants like that .

Well, if the kid is seven and wearin diapers (pull ups, more likely), it most likely means that parents are aware of the issue. The child may have had some developmental problems, or perhaps has a disorder of some sort where it's uncontrollable. I'm sure that there's more to the story.
