Today, I was babysitting my 8-year-old niece. I left her for 10 minutes so I could take a shower, only to walk in on her with her dress rolled up, peeing on the floor. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was babysitting my cousin when I realized my aunt didn't tell me where the diapers were. I searched the entire house, but I had no luck. Then my cousin ripped off the diaper she was wearing and peed on the kitchen floor. FML
Today, I babysat my niece and thought a quick shower would be fine. I left her watching cartoons with a blanket and returned to find she’d used washable paints on the carpet and her hands, leaving tiny colorful footprints to the couch. Her proud smile made me forgive the mess, but I spent the evening scrubbing. FML
Today, my sister and her two-year-old came to my place for a visit. Not long after arriving, my niece ripped off her diaper and immediately took a dump on my white carpet. Guess who had to 'suddenly' leave afterwards, leaving me to clean up the mess. FML
Today, I was babysitting a really bratty little girl. She came and cuddled up on the couch so I took it as an apology. I feel asleep while she was sitting with me and when I woke up she had peed on me. She locked herself in her room and was laughing about peeing on me for discipling her. FML
Today, my 2-year-old sister walked in on me while I was showering. She began to splash around in the toilet, and as I hastily jumped out to stop her, my brother and his friend got a good look as they walked past the room. FML
Today, I was babysitting my friend's two year-old daughter. Within 15 minutes, she had crawled out of her crib, taken off her diaper, and smooshed her poop in between the cracks in the floor. I put her in the tub, left to get a towel, and came back to her pooping in the tub. FML
Today, I went to let my puppy out, and I turned around to see her peeing on the carpet. After getting her outside, I saw my little sister pooping on the floor. FML
Today, my not-quite-potty-trained toddler niece had a 'wee accident' in my bed. I used towels to mop it up and changed the sheets. Later, I had the bright idea to dry it faster by turning the electric blanket on high. Now my room smells like burned urine. FML
Today, I was babysitting a little girl. She told me she wanted to go to the park, so we did. As we were walking back, I was carrying her on my back. When we were almost at the front door, she told me she had to pee. I told her to hold it in for a second. As we were walking through the door, I felt a warm spot on my back. FML
Today, while shopping, I suddenly got the terrible urge to use the bathroom. I already had several items and my 5-year-old niece in tow, so I hurried to checkout. I ended up pissing myself. FML

8 years old is a bit old to not know better than that

yeah some kids definitely cant be left alone, I know my 8 year old is fine but theyre just some that aren't. usually if I HAVE to shower I'll put a movie on with a snack for everyone and they're usually fine. honestly just talk to her about it, she could have really needed to go but couldn't go in the bathroom, could be a number of reasons but either way shes old enough to clean it up.

What took you so long in the shower? The kid couldn't get to the toilet while you were doing God-knows-what in the bathroom.

10 minutes is too long? Unwashed man alert.

A lot of kids can’t be left alone for that long. Some can. But they just don’t have enough logic and conscience at that age still.

You're being paid to babysit, it's not the time for personal grooming. Would you take a shower at the office?

She may not have been getting payed.

Depending on how long she babysits for, personal grooming time is expected. Babysitting isn’t always just a few hours dude.

You never leave young kids alone. Since you are babysitting you should have done that before you got there, or wait until her parents arrived.

She’s 8 years old, old enough to generally manage bodily autonomy like bathroom usage. If you think her parents don’t leave her alone at all, you’re sorely mistaken.

At eight years old? A toddler maybe but damn 8’s too old for that. Somebody needs to potty train

Hey, OP here! Just to clarify on a few things, my niece is a very good, mature kid most of the time, she just had an accident whilst she was distracted :)! I was babysitting her over the course of a weekend so just going without a shower wouldn't have been very hygienic lol, hope that clears things up
