Worst damage your kid has ever done

[Poopatrolonthetoiletroll]

Currently counting down the days til the DC go back to school. The constant mess is fraying the ends of my sanity. What's the worst mess or damage your DC has ever done.

Worst for me is my toddler DC did a massive poo on the floor and when I went to get stuff to clean it up with they repeatedly rammed their vtech toot toot elephant through it. Absolute carnage and huge tears when I wanted to throw it away. No it was. Not the carpet but getting all the poo out of the elephant and sanitising it.

Bring on September

Oh Lord I’ve only read 3 pages and can’t believe how lucky I was, whilst also feeling very guilty about the obviously minor things that really made me mad.
But full of genuine sympathy, so many of these are so stressful and expensive. Never knew kids were so bloody inventive!

DD - drew on the side of the sofa with felt tips.
DS - removed his nappy in his cot and then had a poo and covered himself and every available surface in it. Covered the bathroom in Sudocrem.
Not too bad all in all. They're both young adults now.
My brother broke the glass on the video (remember them?) cabinet. Twice. Used his poo to redecorate the bathroom. Broke the TV remote control by dropping it in a sink full of water. Smashed a neighbour's greenhouse by throwing stones. Smashed another neighbour's window by doing the same. He's turned into a very responsible adult though and is nothing like the hooligan he was as a small boy!

Reminded me of when we went on holiday when DS was 4. We were in the pool when he told DH he needed a wee. DH told him to just do it in the pool (yes, I know!). DS duly climbed out of the pool, pulled his trunks down and pissed into the pool! Brilliant 🙈

@NooNooTheNotSoGreat
thank fuck I only had one - you made a good decision

Sudacrem all over the tv

DD3, my handbag, 2 tubes of red lipstick, friends new cream carpet and sofas. We paid for professional cleaners and even they couldn't get the stain out. Ended up paying for replacement carpet, 3 sofas and a very large bunch of flowers to apologise. Over £15k damage

Bloody hell! Didn't they have insurance??

After reading these, a reel of a young boy sticking pencils in the sofa appeared on my Instagram, I had to screenshot to share... not sure how I'd react if my son did this 😳

When my daughter was about 3 or 4 she got hold of a nail varnish, dark purple/black in colour and spilled it all over our white bedding and carpet. Two nights ago, aged 19, she managed to spill a cocktail over her bedroom carpet, that’s off white, right in front of her bedroom door. The cocktail was bright pink. Wool carpet, won’t come out. Minor compared to others but still super annoying 😡

When my daughter was younger she spilt a large tin of green gloss paint on her bedroom floor all over the carpet. On realising what she had done she came down to tell me leaving green footprints all down the stair carpet, the dining room and then into the lounge. She then ran through the kitchen all the while leaving green footprints behind her! Carpets couldn’t be saved, but thank goodness we were insured!

Saved for over a year to buy this red leather 3 piece suite, ( a few years ago )it arrived, it was in the house for less than an hour when my son aged 4 got a black marker pen and drew all across the 3 seater sofa.

My DB set off fireworks in a field behind our holiday home in France… it set a huge hay bale on fire which my parents had to pay the furious farmer quite a lot of money for!
My DS age 3 managed to crack our brand new, expensive tv, my PILs tv and the tv in a holiday let all in the space of a few months…

My ds as a toddler pushed a new dinner set onto the floor casually as I had set it down in his table until I made space for it. Atleast it was boxed so the mess didn't travel so far. But i had been to buy it as had people coming to eat and not enough plates etc so was back to square one 😂

When we were on a livery yard , knocked my brand new ( as in less than a week old , saved up and bought as a landmark birthday present) Stuebben saddle off the stable door , whereupon it hit the concrete , bounced and got stood on by someone else's horse coming out of the arena , leaving a VERY large hoof print across the seat , and the tree (spine) snapped in two. £3k in damage . Actual tears were shed. .

Thank god I'd done the one sensible thing and got it individually insured , and the yard had CCTV .

Mine have done loads of mad things...threw an iPad in the bath, threw a new camera in the bin because it was broken (battery had run down) and we didn't know about it until the bins has been collected, sharpied all over a newly painted wall, biro within a week of getting a new leather sofa. I could go on.

Oh the putting things in the bin thing is the worst! At least most damage is found out soon enough! DD went through a phase of flushing money down the toilet 😬

I can't believe these comments! My kids have never done anything worthy of adding on here. 😳

Came down one morning to find my two dd had got in the pantry and managed to make an almighty mess downstairs with oil squash flour and spices everywhere lovely to clear up
hands up yes we had the sudocreme everywhere on another occasion too

I'm not entirely innocent. Aged around 3, mum and dad had bought their first brand new cooker. It had little bakelite tiles on the front that indicated which gas burner was which. I picked at one and broke the tile. Around the same time I smeared hand cream on the bathroom wallpaper, which ripped, I then tried using other things to fix it but made it worse. Told DM a bird had flown in and pecked it (probably because we had a budgie around that time that used to peck the wallpaper in the living room).
I drew all over my Nan's beloved Des O'Connor LPs with marker pen.
Spilt a bottle of Quink ink over my bedroom carpet.
Sampled most of the miniature bottles of alcohol in my grandparents' display cabinet (because I was often left unsupervised - it was the early 1970s)

Please please please!! These threads should come with a laughter warning!!! I’ve nearly wet myself laughing! Gosh there some amazing parents out there! Well done to you all for getting through the storms!! And thank you for the often inappropriate laughs!, Tena lady here I come!!
