Today, my 4 year old son excitedly asked me if he'd get to see drones at the zoo. He apparently thinks drones are living creatures. I guess I can go ahead and spend his college savings on shoes. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I finally bought the toy my two year-old son always wanted. He would always tap on the TV when the commercial for it would appear. I gave him the gift, and he started playing with the bag it came in. FML
Today, I realized that my 5 year old son has more money saved up in his piggy bank than I have in my actual bank account. FML
Today, my son turned 8. We watched as he unwrapped a $55 Nerf gun, extra 'bullets', new shoes and a school bag with his favorite TV character on the front and a action figure inside. As he finished he looked me straight in the eyes and says, "That's great ma, but seriously what'd you get me?". FML
Today, my 4 year old son thought it was funny to put money in the shredder. He stuck over 500 dollars in it. FML
Today, after explaining to my two year old that we were going bra shopping, he decided to announce to the entire bank that we were going to buy Mommy some boobies. FML
Isn't that illegal?
Today, my neighbor, who has 4 video cameras pointed at the front of my house, got a drone that’s now hovering over my backyard. FML
The Talk
Today, I asked my 13-year-old son if he thought he was mature enough for a talk about "the birds and the bees." His response was, "They fly, so what? Why would I care?" FML
Fatherly pride
Today, my wife insisted we start a college fund for our son, even though from where we were sat in the kitchen, we could clearly see him eating ice cream he'd just dropped on the floor, while picking at his belly button. He’s 13. College, sure. FML
It's not what you think
Today, I took my 4 year-old son to the bank with me. He asked why we were going, and I explained that I had a couple of checks that they would turn into money. When we got in line, he loudly exclaimed, "Mommy has checks for money!" Except "checks" sounded almost exactly like "sex." FML
Today, my 3 year old kid wanted to do something nice. I told him he could pick up some of his toys. He washed my new Iphone instead. FML

Come on now, he's four. How is he supposed to know that unless you teach him?

What is wrong with you? He’s not even in school yet. What he doesn’t know is on you.

Drones aren't living creatures? Yeah right! Next you'll be telling me reindeer can't fly.

Make sure you get a whole lot of really nice shoes though! Unless he smartens up during the forthcoming decade, you should really enjoy yourself! You go, girl!👍 Good luck in the zoo, BTW!

It's a 4 yr old.. your the parent why are you not teaching your child instead? A child can only learn what is instructed to them in some way, shape or form.

Somehow, I get the feeling OP meant to type 14. Wouldn't be the first fml with typos to get through.

Wouldn't most 14-year-olds know what a drone is?

Today, my mom thinks I'm stupid because I thought drones were animals and lived at the zoo. She never taught me otherwise and assumes I just should know stuff. I'm only four. FML
