Today, I arrived home. I'd left for a business trip 5 days earlier, and trusted my husband with our young boys. As soon as I stepped in the door, I noticed my son had thinner hair than when I'd left. He then showed me an empty container of Nair. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I came home from a long business trip. I walked in the front door to see my house was a complete mess. The first thing my son said was, "Did you bring pizza?" FML
Today, I returned home early from a week away for work. I was worried about my husband's mental health after a week alone with our two ADD kids. He wasn’t expecting me, but I was surprised to see the house cleaner than it had ever been, and our children happily reading on the couch. How did he do that? FML
Today, while my mother-in-law visited, I asked if she wouldn't mind watching my son for 10 minutes as I had run out of baby shampoo. I came back home to see she had shaved his head completely bald. That was his very first haircut. FML
Today, I arrived home, having just had my long hair cut and my beard shaved. My idiot daughter’s reaction when she saw me? “Who are you and how did you get in the house?” FML
Today, I left my husband in charge of the house for a day. When I returned, I saw him gaming through the window, so I stormed in and yelled at him. Then, my eyes adjusted, and I saw the neatly folded laundry, clean kitchen, vacuumed rugs, and my son, who was asleep until I woke him. Whoops. FML
Today, I left my son with my husband while I went to the store. Ten minutes later, my dog was missing a large patch of fur, and neither of them can stop laughing. FML
Today, I asked my kids if I looked good before going to work. Smiling, they told me I looked wonderful. It wasn't until I got to work and looked into the mirror until I noticed my left eyebrow was gone. FML
Today, I returned home from a three-week vacation. None of my friends realized I'd been gone. FML
Today, me, my boyfriend and his family stayed at an AirBnB while on a trip. While I was doing my makeup, my boyfriend told me he was going to take a shower. A few minutes later, I went in the bathroom to shave my legs thinking my boyfriend was in there, but his dad was in the shower, scrubbing his ass. FML
Today, I left the house for a while and when I came back my husband was wearing my lacy lingerie. He looks better in it than I do. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Child : what's this daddy? (holding nair) What child heard daddy say *'that's what daddy uses on his head'* What daddy actually said "that's what daddy uses, so he gets head"

Maybe you shouldn't leave the nair within the child's reach. Just sayin'...

Are you trying to say it's the husbands fault?
borntoperform 14
Well if they're very young, they shouldve been supervised. But if they're over 6 or 7, then it's the boys own fault.

At least they weren't hurt, coulda been worse
Keyman1212 14
I'm sure it's hard to supervise two young boys, they're probably pretty wild at that age. Not that I'm saying it's an excuse for them to misbehave! But part of the blame also lies with the mother, who I'm going to assume was the proud owner of said Nair.

Psh. Who cares about the hair, the house was still standing.
hellbilly205 17
I'd say it was a winning situation. The house is standing, none of them are dead, hair grows back, and you returned safetly to your family.

#7 is right, could have been worse. Kid could have drank it instead of using it.
girl112891 7
I think what the real FML here for her is the fact that her husband is not responsible enough to take care of the boys without her. BUT it is a funny story to remind the kid about when he's older lol my mom would ask me if I remember when (insert childhood story) and I would laugh and wonder what went through my young head!

You can only keep a leash so short on a child. They will and do get into trouble. The kid getting into nair would take all but a few minutes of being alone, especially if they found it while using the restroom. To blame the husband is silly.

#29 - Actually, that product (Nair) can do some serious damage and I doubt the child used it as instructed on the bottle since he thought it was a good idea to use it on his head. Those chemicals burn away the hair and its imperative that the directions are followed (IE on the skin for no more than 10 minutes or you start getting chemical burns.) Also, it causes hair to grow back thinner/less each time it is used, so the child could have done permanent damage to his hair. The fact of the matter is, if the Dad wasn't paying attention to the son to see that he was playing with dangerous chemicals, imagine if the child had ingested it rather that just slathering it all over his head!

How is it the mothers fault? She left on a business trip and left her trustworthy husband in charge. She had no choice but to leave. Her fault how?

Its never the hussbands fault..

Well duhh it isn't the hussbands fault, because hussbands don't exist.

Does no body on here realize how curios kids are? OP didn't have to have it "in reach" for the child to get to the Nair. The son was probably digging in a cabinet or climbing on top of a counter. I'd also like to point out that anyone thinking the husband messed up everything is not correct. OP's husband might have been dealing with the other son while this son was going on a scavenger hunt.
desireev 18
Well said 18!
kjcookie10 9
If your kids are young like aforementioned, then understandable on being so curious. But if you're talking about like 15 year old... I would be worried.
Laurenlou 24
59- I agree but the FML says "young boys." If they were around 15 the FML would probably say "teenage boys."

how old is he? probably did it himself

Of course! Him and his friends were having a prank war and filming it for YouTube. Ahh YouTube where the masses go to get their 15 mins. of shame and fame.

Well, it wasn't the father! Last I checked men only shave their heads, while nair and waxing is left to us ladies.

What gay guys use one their assholes so they can get their salads tossed... what? was that offensive? My bad "urkle voice"

I would've said "get their salad dressed", but then again I probably wouldn't have posted that.

Why do people always attack the gays? Like really, it's not funny at all...

No. It isn't. You know what really is disturbing, though? The number of LGBT kids that kill themselves because of prejudiced cavemen like you.

Kids do stupid stuff. Especially when non-kid stuff is in reach. Keep him away from stuff like bleach and rat poison.
ImInYourFACEbook 8
Stupid? Kids are like mini geniuses. They do things that no one else would think was possible. Using Nair on our heads is going to be the new thing, just you wait.

Your husband is a complete **** up. Obviously he wasn't paying attention and this could have been prevented. I'm sorry OP
StoryOfTheYear 15
In five seconds a kid can do a lot more than just get away with using a bottle of Nair. I doubt OP's husband was encouraging the situation so he can record it and post it to YouTube. Give a guy a break.

At least he's a boy and boys tend to atleast shave their heads anyway. For a girl, that'd be disastrous. Try not leaving that stuff out with mischievious boys around next time.
