Today, my son's hamster died. It was overweight and got stuck in its plastic tube. My 6 year old son came downstairs to me smashing a plastic tube with a dead hamster in it on the kitchen table. He thinks I killed it. FML

Basically, he's had hamsters that have dies before, and we always gave them a funeral... so I didn't want to bury him in a plastic tube so my husband gave me the job of removing the hamster....

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should have blown it out. It would have been hilarious if the fat, dead hamster hit your kid like a blowgun dart. Hilarious for us; years of therapy for the kid.

Dear God, man! What was the point of smashing it open to get the hamster out? Either way, the tube and hamster are out of there. Throw tube and hamster away together!

He likes to have proper funerals for his hamsters.

Why the hell would you kill an innocent hamster? What's wrong with you?

Easy solution: tell him what really happened and just explain that things die. He's six; he'll get over it.

Hey, what's worse than ten dead hamsters stuck in a plastic tube? One dead hamster stuck in ten plastic tubes.

This is your son's fault for overfeeding the hamster

Well, if she lets her son feed the hamster at six years old, she's kind of dumb.

Maybe you just know a hell of a lot of dumb six year olds. Also, may I had this hamster has lived for 5 years, which is a good age for a hamster.

Your son is spoiled. Don't let him get away with a tantrum like that.
