Today, I got in a huge fight with my mom, so I went to my room and locked myself in there and played loud music so I didn't have to hear her. She then started yelling at me on Facebook, so I logged out of Facebook. She then started yelling at me on Yahoo. Damn technology. FML

Today, while waiting for my mom to pick me up from university, I took out my phone and pretended to talk to someone. I didn't think people still pointed and laughed, but apparently they do when your mom pulls up and shouts, "Stop pretending to talk to someone." FML

What kind of father are you that you didn't stay in your daughter's life after the divorce? Boo to you.

Sometimes whomever gets custody of the child doesn't allow the other to even contact them, or hides them away. If he was looking for his daughter "after years of looking for her", there's only a small chance that he was out of her life by choice.
