Today, my 15-year-old son got so enraged at a fly that kept harassing him, that he ended up slapping himself in the face as it flew by him. This caused him to fall out of his chair, at which point he broke down into a mess of tears, humiliating me in front of everyone. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after twelve straight hours of work, my fourteen year old son surprised me with a broken window and a cracked TV. He said, "I was swatting away a fly." FML
Today, my son tried to swat a fly with a hammer. Our apartment walls are now littered with dents and holes. FML
Today, my young son and I were in line at Subway. I guess he got bored and started to insult the teenage girl behind us. I tried to get him to stop, but he wouldn't listen. Eventually the girl punched him in the face and left. As my son cried uncontrollably, everyone else there clapped. FML
Today, two days after losing my temper with my smart mouthed 7 year-old son and slapping him across the face, I tried to apologize by buying him a treat and telling him if anyone found out, I would get in trouble. Today, I got a call from social services about the "bruise" on his face. FML
Today, I accused my son of faking being sick. He then blew chunks all over me. FML
Today, during a heated argument with my son, I lost my temper and called him a son of a bitch. He enthusiastically agreed. FML
Today, I walked into my son's room only to be attacked by a swarm of flies. I'm afraid to go back in there. FML
Today, during a family game of basketball, my 15 year old son shoved me hard to get the ball. I fell and cut my arm badly on the ground. I yelled at him for being an idiot. He replied "Oh jeez, a bleeding woman being a bitch, what a fucking shocker." My husband doubled over laughing. FML
Today, my 2-year-old son put his hand on my face, gave me a sweet kiss, and put his cheek against mine. Then he slapped me hard enough to leave a mark, laughed, and scrambled away. FML
Today, my son got a beating. Apparently, he went to a club, waited until he saw a couple of girls pulling a duckface for a photo, then rushed over and threw pieces of bread at them. Their boyfriends, not too surprisingly, didn't appreciate this. I had to drive the idiot home from the hospital. FML

Why would he cry if he's 15? Does he have a disability? How would he end up slapping himself?

And Also your making this about yourself and showing how much you hate your child. HOW! How does this have anything to do with you? He was the one who was humiliated he fell out of the chair

I have anger management issues and maybe he does too. I just know that in the heat of the moment you are freaking out and so it is quite possible to hit yourself, but on top of that once the outburst is over you're frustrated that it happened and also frustrated about the thing that caused the outburst. He also may have been humiliated because of what happened... Not that the dad would know, he only cares about how he looks.

Have you even considered getting your son some help for these anger issues?

You're a bitch... You're son is upset and crying(which not a lot of men do) and you're worried about your own reputation? What a selfish thing to say.

I said the same thing. It's awful how some parents react to the actions if their kids. I mean parents these days...

Humiliating you? Sounds like someone else needs to grow up.

When people bottle up emotions small things can set them off. You should talk to him and see what really caused the fit of rage. Don't let it 'fly' over your radar.

Ok no offense but why is it always about how the parents look. The kid is the one who should be embarrassed. The only reason you should be embarrassed is that you care more that you think your kids actions effected you than the fact that your kid is probably genuinely upset and frustrated.
