Today, I was babysitting four kids. I turned the TV on for them, and set the youngest on my lap. She started giggling and pointing at every single pimple I have, exclaiming "Boo-boo!" This went on for half an hour. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was watching my 2-year-old sister in the bathtub. As she was splashing, she stopped, and pointed at the "owie" on my head. I told her it was okay, and that it was just a pimple. She said, "Wow, you have a lot of pimples!" FML
Today, I was babysitting a little boy. I opened up a new bottle of bubbles and it was all goopy and gross so I said, "Eww!" The boy then asked, "What's "ew" mean?" I replied, "Something gross and yucky." Then he pointed at my face and say "Ew! Ew! Ewwww!" FML
Today, I was babysitting a three-year-old. She asked me what was wrong with my belly. I had to explain to her that I'm just fat. Twice. FML
Today, I was babysitting my baby cousin. I was lying on my back playing with her, while holding her up in the air. As I was doing that, I made cooing noises and funny faces to get her to laugh. She laughed and threw up in my mouth. FML
Today, a little girl pointed to the acne on my face and said to her dad, "Look at how many mosquito bites she has on her face!" FML
Today, I was sitting on the couch with my 5 year-old on my lap. All of a sudden, she turned to me and said, "Daddy, I love your boobies. They're a good pillow." My own kid just called me fat. FML
Today, I babysat a 10 year old from hell. She kept insulting me, saying I have tiny boobs, that boys must hate me, and that I'm ugly. I eventually got fed up and put her to bed. When her parents came back, she ran out of her room in tears and told them I'd beaten her. They believed it. FML
Today, my 7-year-old daughter came up to me in a noisy mall and said "boo-boo" pointing to her hand. Not paying enough attention, I kissed her hand to make her feel better. She grimaced and said "No dad, bird poo." FML
Today, I hired a babysitter for my two kids for the evening. When I came home, I found her sitting on the floor, crying with a full bowl of popcorn, watching a kids' movie. Apparently, my six-year-old had decided to re-enact every scene from the movie, and she couldn’t take it anymore. I had to hug her and assure her that she was doing a great job. FML
Today, while babysitting, the oldest little girl who is 7 went through my purse. She pulled out a half empty bottle of lube. She asked what it was and I told her lotion. I went to the bathroom and when I came out, the bottle was empty and there were 4 kids covered in lube. Then their mom came home. FML

The funniest part is that this youngest kid is 16. Oh, those crazy teens.

You don't say.

He is just a kid, so you can't really blame him. They have limited knowledge, and get their minds fixated on one thing. However, this FML seems to be based more on the fact that you have enough pimples for your kid to talk about for an hour. Lots of people have them, and they are a natural thing, but if they bug you a lot, you can buy some prescription pills and creams.

#21: The post doesn't specify whether OP is male or female, or for that matter whether they have makeup allergies. But using concealing makeup over acne can actually make acne worse, as it blocks the pores.

I think you might need a spell... Say "pro-act-ive".

28) May I point out that the child in this FML is, in fact, a girl?

Oh good, another character profile. Sigh.

Yeah you can, kids aren't untouchable statues of innocence ffs

^ Agreed. Arrange the firing squad. But on a happy note - Acne and oily skin isn't necessarily a bad thing. People with dry skin experience itchiness and discomfort and are more prone to wrinkles as they age. if your skin is oily, it will look more healthy and feel more healthy as you grow older. Nourish your sits girl

I don't think it's particularly her fault but that doesn't mean I wouldn't tell her not to and explain why it's not nice.

You can drop your drawers and keep them entertained all night with your pimply ass, Honey Boo-Boo.

*vomit* dammit... Not again... *shudders* I'm calling this week, nasty fml vomit orgy week, brought to you by noor... *vomits again*

The vomit one was hilarious! On another note... What the hell, perdix. xD

WTF? was that supposed to be funny perdix?

Yeah Perdix! F*ck you for having a sense of humour!!!

She's saying your face looks like shit. Consult a dermatologist.

And I'm saying you're an asshole.

Ok then. I was joking, but I'm off to a bad start today.

Today doesn't seem to be your day, Chipmunk.

That's 2 failed attempts on the day. I'd just shut up. No offense we all have our bad days

As sad as this is, I reccomend going to a dermatoligist. Little kids say stupid things. Don't take it personally.

She should just accept the way she is. I bet this person would be very beautiful
Mioko_fml 6
Not everyone are born with pimples on their face, so technically it is not the way she is. But yea go to a doctor/find some pimple healing lotion/whatever if it bothers you that much. But don't scratch and pop it, it leaves marks. If it doesn't bother you as much, then let it naturally go away.
N_Jaay 6
People are born, and they change. Her pimples may go away, but then again, they could be here to stay

^ Did you intentionally try to make that rhyme ?
GiseWuy 3
well, I've heard about little kids using people as barf rags/bathrooms before, so could've been worse right?

Take the hint. Be proactive.

Why not distract the kid with a game or some sort of activity that isn't passively staring at a television screen? If you give them something to do, they won't resort to pimple-pointing out of boredom. And don't blame the kid for this. If she's a toddler or younger, she can't help it. If your skin angers or embarrasses you, get it fixed. OTC or a dermatologist if those don't work.

That kid must have a really long attention span to sit there for an hour and a half.

Connect the dots. I mean pimples.

Half an hour, #22, but it's still a good breadth of time. Kids will pay attention when they're interested. OP's face must've been fascinating to that girl. The amount of time my toddler can spend doing tasks I consider mundane is amazing.

I know two kinds of people who are brutally honest.. Drunks and kids. Don't take it too hard, OP, but if your face is broken out that badly, it may be time to see a dermatologist or order Proactive. The Proactive worked wonders for me, I highly recommend it!
kenbarbz72 0
That's because your skin type is prone to the ingredients and chemicals in Proactiv. It doesn't mean that this person's face would be either.

Why is this thumbed down?

30- I understand that what works for one might not work for another. But it's a place to start, and they offer a 30 day money back guarantee if it doesn't work for you. I just meant it as a place to start.. Not to work miracles.
Mademoiselle_fml 34
I think it's safe to assume that if someone has enough acne to last half an hour of "booboo" time, then he/she has probably already tried ProActiv.
