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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to Subway. A lady was in the line with her toddler. The kid screamed in his bid for attention, while his mother and the cashier ignored him, to the point that his voice became a loud screech and the sandwich artist couldn't hear me. I bellowed, "SHUT THAT KID UP!" Silence and glares followed. FML
Today, while working at Subway, a man ordered a sub with avocado. When I told him it was no longer available, he screamed, spit in my face and ran out, pushing over an innocent bystander in the process. FML
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
Today, while shopping, my six-year-old son threw a tantrum because I wouldn't buy him a video game. I ended up having to grab his arm and leave the store. He screamed that I was kidnapping him, at which point I was socked in the face and pinned to the floor by three bystanders. FML
Today, while I was standing in line at the store, some guy insulted the girl in front of me as he walked past. She turned around and socked me in the face. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my husband and our 6-year-old son. My husband kept stealing popcorn from the guy next to him, to the point where the guy punched him in the face. The movie was stopped, the police were called, and my son is now inconsolable. 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
Today, I saw a kid throwing a tantrum in a supermarket. Thinking it was a matter of lack of discipline, I waited for the kid’s mother to come out of the bathroom to tell her how naughty her son was being. I then got to watch her beat her son to the point of unconsciousness. FML
Today, I was at a restaurant when I heard a young girl telling her father she didn't think she was pretty. When I got up to leave, I walked past her table and told her she was beautiful. Her dad then punched me in the face. FML
Today, my son trained his little sister to walk up to strangers and whimper: "My mommy punches me." FML

My sympathy goes to the OP. Kids are hard to manage; all of you were probably fuckheads as kids too, seeing as you're all fuckheads now.

So because children are difficult to manage we should just let them run wild and free? No not really. Children push the limits and test the boundaries you give them. The only learn to respect you as a parent of you enforce those boundaries. For example, if OP had said "if you don't stop and apologize right now we're going home and eating something from there instead." and then took her bratty child home the moment he started to insult the girl again, he would've learned that there will be undesirable consequences for bad behavior. Its the OP's responsibility to discipline her child, even if it means missing out on Subway herself.

why are people saying the kid deserved it? what little kid deserves to be punched in the face for doing something that he didnt know any better for? this isn't the kids fault, it's op for not knowing how to control him.

The kid deserved it because she told him to stop and he didn't listen. Would you prefer she berates and spanks him in the middle of Subway?

It's not like he got punched after saying ONE nasty thing, he kept on insulting her even after his mother told him to stop. No, he didn't deserve to get PUNCHED, but he did deserve some kind of punishment.

You should have beat his ass

LOL sorry OP, but your son most definitely deserved it. I'm glad you tried to get him to stop, but he deserved it for being a little prick. At least we know that girl can stand up for herself. xD

After she punched him you should have spanked his ass right their in the store and not gotten any food for him.
