Today, my twelve year-old son thought it would be a good idea to relentlessly shoot the mail truck with a paintball gun in front of all the neighbors. FML
NYmets456 tells us more.
Just so you know, everything has worked out fine. The mailman was pretty nice about it. He had to wash off the back of the truck, and pay a little money to help fix it.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Shouldn't his parent discipline him? Oh wait........ YOU'RE the parent!

If your son hasn't already been informed, maybe now would be a good time to let him know... On August 2, 1968, assault on a mail carrier became a federal crime in the United States. I hope your mailman has a sense of humor or your son could be in big trouble. We were all stupid kids once. Use this opportunity to help scare him smart! Good luck!!!

I sympathized until you added "in front of all the neighbors". You don't give a shit that your child is being obnoxious and ruining your mailman's day, you care that your neighbors see. **** you.

Well OP probably did care, but doing it in front of all the neighbors, neighbors that OP probably knew (whereas they may not have known the mailman) was twice as embarrassing.

Don't let him do that again. You can get a hefty fine, considering that he wouldn't be able to pay a "defacement of public property" ticket.

Discipline your kids and that won't happen.

Who gives a 12 year old a Paintball gun? And why on earth wouldn't you take it off him as soon as he started being a little shit?
