Today, I got to spend all of my time scrubbing poop off the walls and carpet because my 2-year-old decided he wanted to 'paint mama a picture.' FML
ashsaunde tells us more.
Hey OP here! First off, thanks for publishing this. It's the first one I've ever submitted. Secondly, yes he was finger painting with it as well as wiping his butt on everything in his room. We're in the middle of potty training so he thought he was helping by cleaning himself off. I also had to clean him and all of his stuffed animals up because he got it EVERYWHERE. Yes, he did get punished in an appropriate way because he's not gonna know it was wrong unless I teach him. And to the comment that I said I need to watch him better, it was while he was napping in his room. Any parent knows you can't watch your kids constantly.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Taking finger-painting to a whole new level.

then your not mature enough to have kids if you get so upset your punishment endangers your kids.

my sister did this as a baby and she's now a verrrry talented artist lol so say to your little one "instead of this.. how about this!" and show him what he can color

I am not looking forward to this, sorry that your 2 year old got poop everywhere, hopefully next time he'll remember to go in the potty or get mommy.

He is doing better with it today but it's just part of being a mom. Still not as bad as the time he puked in my mouth and all over my face.

Yup I would imagine puke in mouth would be a lot worse.

I'd take puke in the mouth every day for a year over even the smallest bit of poop painting, even if i threw everything out and replaced carpets/cleaned and painted walls i'd never be comfortable touching them again, would never feel clean.

I'd imagine you as one of the better parents in society. You have made my imagination a truthful reality.

Yeah OP, definitely take a shit painting over puke in the mouth.

You are right that you can't watch them all the time. Good luck and have fun

Indeed, kids will do shitty stuff even if you do your best to watch them. You're a human being too, its not like you can glue your eyes to your kid 24/7. I hope your kid learns and doesn't crap up your house again.

I think I'm the only person who would prefer the vomit in my mouth over the poop all over the walls. At least with the vomit it was a quick and easy cleanup!! :( the only reason I say this is because my son is currently on formula and that's the nastiest stuff I've ever seen in my life?!

No one needs to be bashing you. They either don't have kids, have a nanny, or are the perfect parent(as if there is such a thing). Things can happen so quick when they are that age. If it's any consolation, it happens to all of us. When my oldest was about the same age I looked into his room in time to see him pull his nightlight partway out( it was the only one that didn't have the safety cap on it) and stick a butter knife into the outlet. Luckily, it immediately threw the breaker and it only knocked him back a few feet. Scared me (and him!)to death. It actually scorched the knife and melted part of his nightlight! He is now 24 and is expecting his first child in a couple of weeks, so he turned out none the worse for wear.

I am so thankful my daughter never had any finger painting poop incidents.

If you've ever smelled baby milk vomit you'd never ever say the vomit would be better. Especially when they switch to cows milk. There is no worse smell on the planet.

I really hate when people tell me to watch my kids better and then complain that I need to clean or make time for myself. I want to drop my kids off for a week with them, tell them to watch them 24/7 and make sure everything is spotless and they're not allowed to be stressed.

Right? some people are just so fuckig ignorant. It is NOT possible to watch your child 24/7 unless you have a surveilance system everywhere in the home and are constantly watching it while attempting laundry, dishes etc. The people that say that are just the dumbest on earth. My 3 kids are 8,7, and 5 and all 3 of them still get into shit because thats what kids do. Keep up the good work with your kids

You must not work around animals haha. I trained sea lions for about a year and it was a normal occurrence to come to work in the morning and find everything covered in poop. They always looked so proud when I had to clean it up.

I remember those days, gotta love potty training. good luck

Your story is one of the many, MANY reasons why I am so thankful for birth control. Thanks for reminding me yet again why I am making the right choice in being child free.
