Today, I got an angry call from my 7-year-old son's school. It turned out that while doing a "what I want to be when I'm older" assignment, he wrote that he wants to be an internet troll so he can make people mad and make them kill themselves. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was told that my son has Twitter and Facebook accounts that he uses to try to bully people online, some of which are celebrities. He does it really badly, though. FML
Today, my son's teacher asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. He put down "unemployed". FML
Today, my husband was concerned about our son using the Internet, so he told him a story about a kid who gave out his personal information and was kidnapped and killed by a maniac. Now our son is scared to use anything with a screen. FML
Today, I woke up to my 7 year old son angrily trying to smother me with a pillow. FML
Today, my teenage son called me at work and started screaming abuse at me. He told me how he never wants to see me again and hopes I die a gruesome death. Why does he feel this way? I beat his high score on Bejewelled 2. FML
Today, I had to pick my son up from school after he beat the crap out of another student. The words that made him go nuts were apparently, "You mad, bro?" FML
Today, I got a phone call from my 6-year-old son's school telling me they were concerned about him as he wouldn't stop barking at the radiator. After talking to my husband about it, I found out he's been teaching him so he could see the look on my face. FML
Today, I was bitched out by my 17 year-old son's teacher. It seems the idiot teacher made the kids advocate for his own political beliefs in a presentation, and my son ended his speech saying, "And it remains my opinion that our instructor is cramping my motherfucking style." Instant suspension. FML
Today, my son announced he wants to be a YouTuber, and wants to make videos of himself doing violent things to pregnant women. He’s 9. FML
Today, my five-year-old son threatened to kill another kid at school. I told the teacher I would have a talk with my son about how that’s not okay. The teacher replied that I’d better call the cops in case he “follows through.” Did I mention the kid is five? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Sounds like you need to have a bit of a talk about compassion...

Kids these days. When I was younger, I wanted to be a marshmallow when I grew up.

I'm currently working on my degree in fluffiness so hopefully it works out. Thanks for the support

You can do it. I was once like you, dreaming to be a marshmallow. Now I'm top marshmallow in my class.

Sounds like he doesn't understand the gravity of saying stuff like "go kill yourself". Have a talk with him

You're right jail is definitely a place

Jail, for practicing free speech over the Internet? Good luck in that court case.

@66 I'm not totally sure, but I think you can go to jail for encouraging suicide if they actually go through with it.
DaRito 25
I know people have tried to get that passed, but I don't think it ever went through. Also, if you take something someone who knows nothing about you said over the Internet seriously, it's your own problem.

Internet bully is starting to be prosecuted nowadays. Plus, there's Megan's law but I that one's only in Missouri and not nationwide or anything.

@80 Megan's Law is national.

Thank you! I could only half remember the documentary I saw on it.

What happened to kids wanting to be race car drivers

If he doesn't change his mindset after giving him a stern talk about how that's wrong of him to think that way, show him one of those video's someone left on the internet before killing themselves because of trolls/online bullies. Or would that be a bit too much for a 7 year old? (honest question, since I'm not sure) Also, I'm kind of wondering from where he got the idea, because he might need some more supervising when he's online.

I don't think it would be to hard on him, but only because of his current mentality I'm regards to encouraging suicide. he needs to know what the consequences are.

I think might have met your son on a couple of forums before.

You need to have a serious talk with him and probably ban his internet use for quite a while. Saying shit like that is not okay.
