Today, it's my birthday. My dad showed up to my birthday dinner wasted, was loud and obnoxious the whole time, sexually harassed our waitress, then invited my annoying, bratty nephews to come home and spend the night with us. They're sleeping in my room. Happy birthday to me. FML

Obviously you shouldn't be drinking if your underage, especially if your dads a cop. You should know better

OP, I understand where you're coming from, but he is a police officer. He didn't give you special treatment, which no cop would have. He may have been acting more as a cop than a parent, but, as he's estranged, that should be expected. Still, I feel for you. Worst birthday ever.

He has a legal duty to arrest them if he knows, he doesn't get a choice. If your friends are drinking and are underage they deserve it and so do you. There are multitudes of reasons why you SHOULDN'T drink before 21 with the main one being that your brain is still forming and it will affect your physical brain growth. YDI

If you want to use that kind of reasoning than no one should ever drink until after the age of 25 because their brain may still be developing.

Yeah...FYL because your dad is doing his job? I fail to see this logic. Regardless of whether he is estranged or not, you shouldn't be hosting a party with booze. Do you really want to be responsible for a possible death because some drunk idiot decided to drive himself home? I see this as your dad saving YOUR ass. YDI

Though it sucks, you're a bitch for posting this when he had every duty under the law he is sworn to uphold to do such a thing. It was your birthday, but you deserved it for providing alcohol to minors--friends or not. In short; you suck and you deserved it, ENTIRELY.

How can a guy be a bitch? That's reserved to females.
