Today, I got a call from my son's second grade teacher. He happens to write and throw with both hands, and wanted to share this during show and tell. Apparently, he didn't know the word for this is ambidextrous, because his teacher told me, "Your son just told the whole class that he's bisexual!" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to my 7 year old son's school for a conference with his teacher. When I got there, the teacher said "she adored me for who and what I am". I was puzzled. Turns out my son told his class that I am a "lesbian American." Wrong. I'm Lebanese-American. FML
Today, my son decided to come out of the closet by wearing a shirt that said "Mom, I'm gay" to the family reunion. FML
Today, my daughter was telling everyone at her elementry school about my gay partner. Yes, I have a gay partner. He is my work partner and he happens to be gay. FML
Today, I found out why my 5 year-old son's teacher acts so awkward around me. My son told everyone in his class that I work as a stripper. I'm not a stripper, I work at the strip mall. FML
Today, I found out that my son is not really gay. He just told me that so I'd let him have girls in his bedroom. FML
Today, I found out that my son has been telling me he's gay so we would allow the "female friend" who is actually his girlfriend to stay over. FML
Today, I got a note from my son's kindergarten teacher. During free time yesterday, he told her, "Mommy was stripping". I was indeed stripping. Paint that is. FML
Today, I got a call from my 8-year-old's 3rd grade teacher. Apparently a question went around class asking, "Why do you think you were put on this Earth?", and my son answered, "My dad says it's because I swam the fastest." FML
Today, my son's teacher asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. He put down "unemployed". FML
Today, I got a text from my cousin saying that he's gay. I was thrilled and told him that I'm bisexual. He later texted me saying that his friend took his phone and said that. He also told all of our relatives. I accidentally came out to my family. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Ha, I'm sure they have no idea what that means. But hey, there isn't really anything wrong with being bisexual.

Haha, I am too, but I told everyone I was an air conditioner instead of ambidextrous when I was young

Second grade, so he's 6 or 7? He could just not know what it means. My little sister had a speech impediment and couldn't say certain words. For instance: beach was bitch and bench was bitch. She didn't realize it was a bad word, she just couldn't say the actual thing. Maybe that the deal with your son. He didn't know the actual word, so came up with whatever was closest.

Yeah, same here. My name is Bailey, but my brother has speech troubles and says Billy. And instread of the 'Th' sound, he just says the 'f' sound.

Ambidextrous sounds nothing like bisexual. But I do agree he did not know what it means. If he did he would not misuse it.

He didn't know the word ambidextrous but he knew the word bisexual?

He was probably told that it meant "going both ways" or "able to go both ways" That'd make sense, I guess...

LOL!! that's hilarious! Now all the kids in his class know the word too. I'd love to see a world with 7 year olds telling everyone they're bisexual

It's not that the kid couldn't pronounce "ambidextrous"- he didn't know the word for that. So he said bisexual instead. FYL for being 17 years old and not knowing how to pronounce ambidextrous. OP- at least you have a kid smart enough to know that "bi" means two...? Sucks for him though if his classmates remember this later on!

Let's hope none of the other 2nd graders know what bisexual means.
