Today, I walked into the kitchen at 5 am, to have my 7 and 9 year olds throw a bucket of water on me. To their surprise and horror, I didn't melt. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my parents woke me up by pouring a glass of freezing cold water over my head. Their reason? They were "bored". FML
Today, I got up early to prank my family. I put a bucket of ice water on top of a door frame so whoever walked through would get an icy surprise. After I was done, I went back to bed. I woke up groggy and disoriented like always and walked right through the doorway I had rigged. FML
Today, my mom decided to wake me up by pouring ice cold water on my face. Again. FML
Today, while working my job as a swim instructor, my coworker sprayed me with the hose. I instinctively held up what I was holding to block the cold water. I was holding a 4 year-old. FML
Today, I was taking a shower, when my dad decided to turn off the water to the house, run upstairs, and throw a bucket of freezing cold sludge into the shower with me. He wouldn't turn the water back on for 2 hours. FML
Today, I tried to pull the old "bucket of water above the door" prank on my brother, but the bucket didn't fall when he opened the door. He noticed it, took it down, then pinned me to the floor and waterboarded me with the ice-cold water. FML
Today, while relaxing in the kitchen drinking coffee, my dad suddenly rushed in, knocking me over and causing me to spill boiling hot coffee all over myself. Then, my dad thought it would be a good idea to grab the sprayer from the sink and douse me with cold water in order to "put me out." FML
Today, I was shut in a boiling hot room with six children: a ten year-old who kept shouting; a belligerent seven year-old; two five year-olds who thought hitting me was funny, and two two year-olds who wouldn't stop crying. Their parents were just outside, laughing away, ignoring me. FML
Today, it's the third time in a row that I've woken myself up in the middle of the night by pouring freezing cold water on myself. I didn’t even have water on my nightstand last night. I woke up in the kitchen. FML
Today, I left for work. Halfway to my car, my neighbour's son jumped out and emptied a bucket of water all over me. The little pissant screamed with laughter and ran back to his house. His mum's reaction was essentially, "Kids will be kids" and slamming the door on me. FML

You must be a bad parent

Your kid being mad at you and throwing something at you makes you a bad parent? Sounds like you don't know shit about parenting, 1.

8- If they thought that (s)he would melt, I think that they would be a bad parent. Have you ever watched the wizard of oz?

12, you sound like an idiot. I thought my mom was a witch every time I got in trouble. That didn't make her a bad parent, that made me an angry kid with an imagination that liked the wizard of oz.

#12: Solid logic. Not.

or her kids are just brats...no matter how hard you try you can't tell your kids how to grow up

You must be a child. When you grow up, you'll learn that parenting is often a thankless job. If you base your parenting decisions on your kids' approval, you're probably not a great parent.

Witches burn. What also burns? Wood. Wood floats. What also floats? A DUCK! Therefore, if the woman weighs as much as a duck, she is........ A WITCH!!

You must be a real bitch to your kids for them to try to melt you like the wicked witch of the west.

Monty Python reference. I don't think you have the quotes exactly right, but it's been years since I've seen the movie, so I might be wrong.

The Wicked Bitch of the West. At least your children have some sense of humour :)

I kind if makes you wonder how bad and mean op is to her kids, to make them think she is a witch "bitch." For your kids to go that far to try to melt you with water. Try to be nicer to your kids op.

Hey at least they didn't try to throw a house on you

44 - Monty python says "We found a witch! May we burn her?" and "she turned me into a newt!.. I got better."

If I was OP I would've faked melting just so the kids would freak.

It's possible

They should think you're a witch now.
cheekyterier 13
actually, they wouldve already thought that, seeing as they threw water on her
onlychildFTW 34
Now they think she isn't a witch.
heygirlie777 21
She might, however, rhyme with witch.
YacL 15
No, now they think she's a super powerful witch who's immune to water. Watch out OP, they might start taking more drastic measures.

I'd show them who's the REAL Wicked Bitch of West if it was were me.
MarisaCB 16
That's kind of sad... but they are just children! If they were teens, I would be more worried.

Don't take it personally, whenever you tell a little kid they can't have something they want, they think you're the devil.
Noldea 5
They must've thought you were the wicked witch of the west.

Wicked witch of the west!

Don't b such a bitch to ur kids then! I hate and resent my mom for all the shit she did to me!
daminantion 14
Without your mom, you'd be a wasted sperm in a Kleenex. Ignorant little brat, you probably deserved being spanked with a wooden spoon.
raraisbang 12
Uhm, they're kids. Any time they get told no or get in trouble they probably think their mom is evil. Way to make yourself look like a real asshole by calling op a bitch.
