“In cub scouts, we were doing the pinewood derby. I worked really hard on my car, (my dad helped, of course). I had already won the first 3 rounds, and before the final round, one of the dads of the of the other kids picked up my car to hand it to me. It “slipped” out of his hand, and broke the wheels when it hit the floor. I’m convinced it was not an accident, and he was sabotaging my car so his kid would win.” –bgzkinsella

“Had a teacher in kindergarten threaten to expel me because I was sick and didn’t show up the day before. She put me on the spot in front of the whole class telling me not to lie and that she’d call the principal. I cried in front of the whole class not knowing what to do. Apparently she wanted to win some attendance award and thought confronting a child was a good idea. Like bruh I was fking 5.” –BeansOnToast_0507

“One of my uncles was in a years-long fight with my mom. To stir trouble, any time he greeted my sister and I, he would tell my sister how beautiful and wonderful she is and to me just say “Oh, you’re here too” and then promptly ignore me the rest of the night. I used to adore him up to that point so this ended up in me being extremely hurt and crying to my mom for hours about how I’m ugly and not special.

He got his petty vengeance on my mother and crushed my self-esteem. Till today I don’t forgive him for it.” –super-ro

“My mom asked if I wanted to play 52 card pick up, while my friends were over. I asked her what it was and she said I either want to play or I don’t. I told her I didn’t want to play anything if I didn’t know what it was. She got visibly irritated and threw the cards on the ground and said “this is 52 card pick up, pick them up.” She then threatened to ground me as she watched me pick the cards up and put them away nicely. I think it was worse because my friends were watching.” –throwaway61419

“I got a 0 on a history assignment in fourth grade because I “improperly cited a source” for one of the pictures I used, meaning it was plagiarism. The citation I used was from the educational website I got the picture from, and it was to the format she wanted. I simply forgot a period at the end. Fuck you Ms. Easton. This was at least 2 decades ago and I’m just remembering it.” –187-MDK

“I was a chubby kid, so when I was 12 I decided I would go for runs around the neighborhood, at dusk so people wouldn’t stare at the fat kid so much. On the second or third run, some guy walking his dog unleashes it and sics it on me for shits and giggles. And calls it back just before it gets to me. I stopped going for runs after that.” –LinusPaulingsCat

“This was when I was a teenager but for my eagle scout project, you had to have a proposal and get it through several levels of clearance. My proposal was very good. I was the only person in years to get through the initial level of clearance without having to revise it. Unfortunately at the district level, there was a stick in the mud who believed that he wasn’t doing his job unless he rejected every proposal at least once. He rejected mine after an hour and a half of arguing, for not including “ladder safety measures”. So I printed out a 150 page manual on ladders and put that in front of him. Unfortunately it was not the same guy so I didn’t get to see his face. I told the other guy what happened when he asked why the proposal was so massive. He thought it was hilarious.” –phonz1851

“My swimming teacher promised me a candy bar if I jumped off the board when I couldn’t swim and when I did they said they forgot, but I saw them eating one in the lounge. I was 5 and I was betrayed.” –Orion465

“I still don’t understand, one time when my dad farted, he laughed and said “whoops.” When I farted, he made me walk up and down a flight of stairs three times.” –Bonanza86
