Today, after saving up for weeks, I bought myself an iPad. Because mine is better than the one my parents bought my ten-year-old brother, he got pissed and threw it into our pool. I'm now grounded for getting angry and calling him a bastard in the aftermath. FML

Today, my dad borrowed my new iPad to amuse him while he was in the shower without my knowledge. The iPad is now completely ruined, and my dad is refusing to buy me a new one. He says, "How was I to know that it wasn't waterproof?" FML

Today, I had to take my little brother to the pool. He acted like a brat the whole time, and when I told him we were leaving, he ran away, slipped, and hit his face on the tile floor. He told my dad and step-mom I punched him. They believed him, and I'm grounded for two months. FML

Today, my little brother was feeling like the god damned bratty douchebag he is and hurled a basketball at me. It missed, hit the wall, and rebounded straight into his face. He burst into tears, and I'm now grounded because my parents believed him when he said I threw it at him. FML

Today, while mopping the kitchen, I ended up slipping and and knocked over the table that had my mom’s iPad on it. The screen shattered; I sprained my wrist. I asked my mom to take me to the ER. She called me "selfish" because her iPad screen repair would "cost more." FML

Today, my little brother got mad at me, so he colored the entire screen of my new iPod Touch with a black sharpie. FML

Today, I briefly left my laptop while I went to use the toilet. When I came back, I found "I" had posted on Facebook, calling my mom a "stupid cunt who should just stay in the kitchen." The only other person home at the time was my grandpa. She didn't believe it, and permanently grounded me. FML

Today, I got grounded for 2 weeks for slapping my brother after he threw a baseball at my head and hit my shin with a bat. He’s in 9th grade and I'm in 8th. He got ice cream to "cheer him up". FML

Today, my dad made a big show of sending me to my room and grounding me for a week. Not because he heard me cursing at my video game, but because I "swear like a little girl" and it embarrassed him in front of his friends. FML

Today, my dad's new girlfriend's daughter came over with them. She had a tantrum because my brand new computer, which I worked and saved for, was better than her notebook, which was bought for her. So what did she do? Oh, she threw it off my desk. For some reason I'm being yelled at. FML

If that's all you did, I admire your restraint.

I dont see anything wrong with a 10 year old having a ipad you can learn a lot on them. However he was so wrong.

I would have called him a lot more than that.

Well it looks like his Ipad is now your Ipad. Or if that isn't good enough at least sell his to help pay to fix yours.

To all the people saying that its just the younger siblings being treated unfairly it's not. I'm the younger sibling and the minute my older sister was old enough to get a job and make money and buy things for herself she immediatly starting bitching that it was unfair if I got things paid for when she had to pay for things herself (small things like clothes or going to the movies. Not phones and ipads etc.) so I was forced to start paying for things myself at the same time she did (even though she was paid for, for 3 years longer than I was because of our ages) and I didn't even get an allowance or was even able to get a job (as it was illegal for me to work at my age) so I was unable to buy anything for basicly 3 years till I was able to get a job and make money myself. Sometimes it's the older sibling who is the one favoured.

Your parents owe you a new iPad. Shame on them for raising a spoiled brat.

I would've smashed his on his head, and used him as a freakin' pool float!

Maybe you missed the part where OP had to save for it (most likely from a job). I'm back in school for my masters and finally saved enough to pick up an iPad, so I feel her pain.
