Today, my daughter didn't clean the bathroom today, even though I told her yesterday that she needed to do it. She claims she forgot, because, she’s "slept since then.” FML

Today, I was in the shower, when I heard my daughter scream and shout, "Mommy, mommy! Help! Come quick!" I panicked and rushed downstairs without even looking for a towel to cover myself, all so I could find out she'd just gotten a piece of dirt on her shoe. FML

You had a fit over DUST? You are the problem. and crying for a week is not a panic attack, it's deeper than that, obviously.

I hope you never come to my house, it has dust. Am I keeping my house in unacceptable condition? I really hope your daughter packs up and goes no contact with you.
