Today, while teaching my kindergarten class, I had a feeling I was starting my period again. A boy in the class asked me what a period was. Stressing over my own, I briefly told him it's a woman's time of the month when they have mood swings. He was asking about the dot at the end of a sentence. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got my period at school. I didn't notice until a boy asked me if I'd killed someone in my pants. FML
Today, a kid came into the classroom I teach in to tell me there was "something" in the girls' toilets. "What kind of something?" I asked. I was not expecting the answer, "A period mural." FML
Today, a senior girl in my college-level biology course asked our professor what periods are like when you’re pregnant. FML
Today, I had the misfortune of getting my period during another exam. And yes, the male professor also noticed this time. FML
Today, while writing a midterm, my period came unexpectedly. Too bad my male professor was the one to notice and not me. FML
Today, my mother and I went to a meeting at my school about a camping trip the students in my grade will be going on. When the time to ask questions came, my mother raised her hand and loudly asked, "What if my child is on their period during the trip?" FML
Today, I called my mom to tell her that I finally got my period. There was an awkward pause. She was at work. I was on speakerphone. FML
Today, my period started. It wouldn't be a big deal if it hadn't happened while I was in my karate class practicing kicks, and if the guy I have a crush on hadn't informed me of it after chuckling. FML
Today, I, an insecure high school student, told my 11-year-old sister that I got my period in third grade. She responded with, “What?! Then how come you didn’t have tits until last year?” FML
Today, while in the store with my kids, they wanted to buy tampons because I am "getting cranky, and it should be that time of the month." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

#52 FTW Honestly, if you had to tell a 5 year old about a period, that's probably the safest thing you could've said so it'll probably all just blow over.

lol, i agree with #79. He is in kindergarten. He wont learn about menstruation until about 4th to 5th grade...

Nice job perpetuating the stereotype that women can't control their emotions because of their periods.

this clearly isnt even true. a kindergarden teacher would know what he was talking about the period at the end of a sentence, like #81 stated, he wont learn baout menstruation till about 4thor 5th grade....

this story is from an elementary school joke, and is untrue. also, the kid wouldnt have understood and u could've handled the situation easily - thats if u are a qualified teacher.
