Constant surveillance
Today, I made the mistake of taking apart and fixing a malfunctioning toaster in front of my five year-old. Two hours later, he tried to take apart a lamp that was plugged in. He shocked himself, broke the lamp, and set the carpet on fire. FML

Today, my idiot son incinerated his shoes in the oven. They were wet and he wanted to "quick-dry" them, so now the whole house smells terrible. FML

One night
Today, I woke up after putting my child to bed. Drowsy, I stumbled down to the kitchen to make a mug cookie. I read a recipe on my phone, and put a knob of butter in a cup to melt in the microwave. I put my phone in the microwave and turned it on for 30 seconds, and didn't realize what I'd done until I smelt burning plastic. FML

At least he cares. He could have put them in the toilet.

when I was four, I covered a plastic dinosaur in peanut butter and microwaved him because dinosaur love heat. I also thought he'd like peanut butter. lets just say I killed the dino and stunk up the place. you can't blame the kid as he was just doing what he thought was right.

How does a kid that small even reach the microwave?

with a chair. in my story I dragged a chair over, climbed on it to put the dino in.

Some microwaves are below counter level too. Which is stupid. But even if it was above the counter level, a chair is all that's needed.
