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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

Not only would I have clapped too, I would've burst out laughing. Your son had it coming.

I would have laughed, little boys can be little bastards. I have one and if this would have happened to my kid, I would have said oh well that's what you get lol.

76- I have two boys and they are wonderfully behaved. I know I'll never have to worry about them slinging insults and a random stranger decking them because they would never do anything like that in the first place. Parenting...apparently it's a lost art.

I never said my son wasn't well behaved. He's an amazing little man and I'm an awesome mom. But kids have no fitters and say whatever is on their mind no matter what. So don't judge.

Girl has sense! And teach your son some patience and concentration... Subway is way too quick to get bored at. Holy moly.

Damn OP, your son has no respect for you or anyone else, that'll get him nowhere in life real quick. He's still young, you can probably still fix this behavior if you actually discipline him.

Why the hell were you letting your son insult not only someone you don't know, but also a girl. You deserved it for not controlling your kid.

Did someone in the crowd yell something along the lines of "Bet ya won't hit him?"

Six is old enough to know better. He wouldn't stop? Seriously? My kids would never ever consider acting like that. Because they'd be in so much trouble. And any time my kids decided to act up in a store I took them outside until they straightened up and went back in and did what i needed to - buy groceries, sandwiches, whatever....I told them this could take 20 minutes or 3 hours. You really need to get a handle on him, gets harder as they get older.

So if someone was insulting you incessantly and wouldn't stop or go away, you'd just stand there and go "okay"? If it was me I'd get just as pissed as the girl. If the only way to shut them up is a punch in the face, it's happening.

Just see this as a hard lesson learned by your son. He will probably not insult or harass anybody else, ever.

This FML makes no sense. Who lets their "young" son insult a teenager in the middle of a restaurant and then does not have said teenager arrested for assault of a "young" child? This one shouldn't have made it past the moderators.

If I was OP, I would give everyone the finger
