Today, I was playing Farmville all day, and I was really into the game. I was getting phone calls all day, but I kept ignoring them cause I was making so much Farm Money. Come to find out it was my son's school. He fell off the jungle gym and broke his arm. FML

This is so fake it isn't even funny. No parent would do that and besides it's impossible to play Farmville nonstop since the shortest growing time is 2 hours. More like a sad attempt to get high on the "Most Deserved" list.

I was going to say that too, you can't play farmville all day and especially make money,like the OP was saying..things have to grow..and yeah 2 hours is the min. What a lame and fake fml..how did this make it through

Fake. Farmville can't be played nonstop, you have to wait to harvest things, which take at least 2 hours. No one would just be staring at some crappy animations for the time in between. Also, it's called Farm Cash and Farm Coins, not Farm Money. Someone who plays the game nonstop all day should know that.

I think the OP meant they were on Farmville all day planting, harvesting, and waiting for plants to grow. If the OP is willing to ignore all phone calls to play it's not that much of a stretch to think she'd stare at a computer all day waiting on crops to grow.

Believe me, you can. My mom can sit at FarmVille/FarmTown for upwards of five hours. She's been known to be on for up to ten. There is a lot you can do, especially if you have a lot of friends or multiple accounts (she made one alt, and harvests my "dad's" farm which he didn't even want, she just logged in as him one day and made him both a 'Town and a 'Ville).
So yes, one can waste many, many hours on these games.....

As horrible as it sounds, she didn't know her son was in the hospital and she might have been known to get calls from telemarketers. I think she should have answered the phone after it rang more than once, but its none of your business what she does with her day, as we are all on FML writing comments and this site takes up a lot of time.

SHE A BAD MOTHER THAT FUCKEN BITCH FUCK U WHORE

Angry much. She is not a bad mother. Stuff happens. I am not saying that she shouldn't have answered the phone, but she took a break for the day. Taking care of kids is hard. You guys take days off. What she chooses to do with her day is her business. Yeah its terrible the school tried to reach her, but she is not a bad mother for one bad thing happening that wasn't her fault (her kid breaking his arm) and then thinking that nothing bad would happen.

Op you should have answered the phone though.

#174 - On 10/25/2009 at 8:54pm by TenebrificTurtle

I think it's sort of irresponsible when you have children that are in someone else's care not to even check the phone (assuming she has caller i.d.) when it rings... especially if it rings repeatedly. I won't go as far to cuss the woman out and assume she's a bad mother because I don't know her, but that was really irresponsible. I mean I don't even have kids but I always check my caller i.d. on my phone when it rings.. even when I'm playing sims 3. That is saying a lot.

#188 - On 10/26/2009 at 5:19pm by Loverfli

We don't know how far the phone was. A kid is at school six to eight hours a day. The call about her son getting his arm broken might have been happening later in the day. I understand what she should have done, but the one day she takes a moment to herself is the day something goes wrong. I just don't think people have the right to curse her out and call her a bad mother for trying to take some time for herself. Children are hard to raise. Sure its not the best game in the world, but its free. She was most likely online with people. I mean, people are not required to be glued to the phone.

Of course, I'm single and childless, but I do the same thing: let voice mail pick up my calls and, then, check my messages as I have time. This is just an unfortunate situation. Perhaps, she should let her phone calls go to voice mail--but check it VERY often, as she DOES have a child (at least one). But let's not judge her unless she's ALWAYS playing FarmVille while never giving her kid(s) the time of day.

god damn... i hope your kid walks up while you're playing farmville and clubs you in the neck with his cast.
1st of all, you are a parent, that means you have to at least pretend to be responsible, and 2nd, that game is dumb as shit..

imagine this through the eyes of your kid, he's playing at school and having a great time, then he is experiencing the worst pain of his life and when the school nurse tells him that she's gonna call mommy and everything will be OK, your cunt-ass was ignoring the calls and leaving your injured son terrified.
i realize breaking an arm isn't the end of the world, but when you're a little kid, it seems like it just might be sometimes, and the only thing they want is for someone to comfort them and to feel better.

please try to learn what being a parent is about, because you obviously have no clue.

Though the OP most definitely deserves the shame and embarassment of this, you should most definitely not being using the words gay, and faggot. First of all, a faggot is a bundle of twigs the gets thrown in a fire. And back in the day, when people weren't as openminded, they would call homosexuals this, meaning that they are worth nothing and should be burned. Do you really think that because someone is not attracted to the opposite sex, that they are worth nothing in life? Think before you say things, and stop being a homophobe. They're people too.

FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've played Farmville, and ITS LITERALLY NOT POSSIBLE TO PLAY EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF THE DAY. The shortest amount of time some of the plants need is two hours, and unless you were rearranging your farm for 2 HOURS, then its practically impossible to play all day.
Plus, answering a phone call doesn't stop you from gaining money. And phone calls don't take much time. Its not like she couldn't have gotten up from sitting behind the computer to answer her phone for a few minutes.
And, I've never met someone who completely ignores the phone ringing multiple times to sit at the computer and basically just sit there staring at it because they want to gain money.

There's no way she could have played Farmville ALL DAY and not answered the phone. fake fake fake.

I love how you all say it is absolutely impossible to play Farmville all day, when it isn't. I don't believe the bit about raking in dough, but it isn't impossible, and plenty of people sit there on video games day in and day out with their slow grind, making little progress for hours on end.

So no, it isn't impossible, this FML is entirely believable, even if she's lying about raking in the dough.

Not really. I mean, it's a little irresponsible but it's definately not the most irresponsible thing I've ever thought of a parent doing. How could she have known that it was her son's school calling? Granted, after the third or fourth time it called, she might think that someone might be wanting to get into contact with her, but it's not like the school weren't taking care of the kid.

I mean, I put YDI but I've definately heard of more irresponsible things.

You don't have caller ID? How much time does it take to divert your dead glazed over farming eyes to the phone to see who's calling. Playing farm chores and making farm money?! So, why not get a real job on a real farm and make real money? Oh, wait... That's not as much fun it's much more fun to see your name on a leader board for having no life other then staying on a game making play money then to go see your son in the hospital.

So, what you brought him home and went right back to the game, right? It sickens me that people get so caught up in games and their net friends that people have forgotten the real world. So, how many times have you not picked him up because you were having oh, so much fun.

*holds up a hand rubbing my thumb and index finger together.* This is the smallest violin in the world playing my heart bleeds purple piss for you.

Bring the caller ID closer to your dumb ass next time so you can see who the hell is calling don't just ignore the phone. Because next time it might not just be a broken arm, it might be someone calling to tell you that your house is on fire, or your car is rolling down the street.

Stupid people make me sick and this site shows there is a mass abundance of them all over the world. STOP BREEDING. >.<

Which is why you ALWAYS answer the phone, especially if you have kids that aren't with you at the moment.

You never thought, hell I am stressed, lets do something that doesn't involve work. She was on facebook talking to people, playing games. Do you not understand how stressful raising children is? Motherhood is one of the most undervalued jobs in the world. So someone takes the day off from life. It is only because she is not supermom and didn't all of a sudden know her son was injured when she decided she didn't have to answer the phone for telemarketers and people who might just want to talk.
