Today, I passed a car, and heard a baby crying in the back seat. It was hot and no one was around. All the doors were locked so I broke it with a rock, cutting my arm and setting the alarm off. Only to find out that it was a realistic baby doll. I have to get 7 stitches and pay for the window. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my car window got smashed, because someone somehow confused the doll my daughter always leaves strapped into a carseat for an actual kid. It's a cabbage patch kid. FML
Today, I woke up to find my car broken into. After being upset for not hearing my car alarm go off I realized it had in the middle of the night. I had woken up and cursed the idiot who set off their alarm and put a pillow over my head, falling back to sleep shortly after. FML
Today, I heard a baby crying while I was walking down the street. I walked around until I found it. In a dumpster. I immediately called the cops, completely freaking out. When the cops came, they pulled the baby out of the dumpster. It was a plastic baby doll. FML
Today, I couldn't get into my car. In an attempt to get in, I broke a window. As I climbed in, the actual owner of the car walked up. Mine was across the street. FML
Today, I was mowing my yard when I hit a small rock, which hit my shed. I got done mowing and realized that it wasn't a small rock, it was my son's toy plyers and it wasn't my shed, it was my car window, which had shattered on impact. FML
Today, I bought my daughter a rape alarm after she had a near-miss with a creep following her to her part-time job. As soon as I handed it to her in the car park, she accidentally set it off and one of her coworkers put me in a rather painful headlock and threw me to the ground, breaking my arm. FML
Today, after an argument with my girlfriend, I tried to be dramatic by slamming my car door shut as hard as I could. Something broke and now it won't open. Now I have to climb through the passenger's side just to drive my car to work. FML
Today, I locked my keys in my car. I was late for work so I went to smash the side window with a big rock. The rock bounced off the window and into my face. FML
Today, I got into a fight with the dryer over a plastic toy car. My hand is bleeding and numb, three of my nails are broken and I have a bruise on my chin. The plastic car is still stuck in the now broken dryer. FML
Today, after I got in my car in the Walmart parking lot, a creepy man knocked on my window. Since I'm incredibly paranoid and scare easily, I put my car in gear and tore out of there, accidentally hitting another car. Apparently he was returning my phone that I dropped. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I understand the OPs panic...and I really do applaud your attempts to help out. Even if it did end badly for you. :/ You should really call EMS, but on a really hot day--who knows how many more seconds are critical... And @Empirical tyrant....unfortunately that isn't always true. People leave their kids, pets, babies in the car windows up, windows down more than we realize...there's a lot of news stories about parents who leave babies/children in the car, windows up or car running, etc. People are nuts, and people don't think.

Babies die from being locked in hot cars all the time. They did the right thing. Once when my 4 year old cousin had an allergic reaction to a bee, I called the police, and I got the busy signal. Even when I finally got through it took them half an hour to come. By then it was too late.

^ This is the reason why cops aren't exactly the best to call in some situations.

i am a mother and EMT student and i really appreciate your effort in trying to help a crying baby in a hot car. death of infants like that is not uncommon. it is a horrible way for a child to die.... its happened to many children. better it turned out a doll and not really someones kid. it could have been a child, after having passed out from heat exhaustion after crying and there wasnt enough time to call authorities at that point. so i really want to say thank you for being so caring and looking out. you could have saved someones life! and next time you really could! =) sorry about the shittiness of the situation though. but yeah. i think about my kids and i appreciate you more. =) so really, thank you. hope you feel better. =)
