Today, during my daughter's 8th birthday at a skating rink, a family showed up that didn't RSVP. The mother brought all 3 of her kids and left them at the party alone. She didn't feed them lunch and they followed me around the whole time asking for money. FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I was hosting my daughter's thirteenth birthday party. One parent decided to stay at my house, the only parent to do so. The entire night she critiqued every decision I made, from the films to the cake. When it was time to open presents, her kid was the only one without one. FML

Social distancing

Today, we celebrated our daughter's sixth birthday. Out of the 30 invited, 7 showed up. The last one to cancel this morning told us she was ill. My daughter was in tears as this meant the last remaining playmate couldn't come. My wife later saw her tagged on Facebook at another party. FML

Merry Xmas

Today, a friend had invited me to Christmas dinner since I have no family close by. When I got there, she told me that her and her husband had forgotten they had another dinner to go to, and asked if I would watch their kids for them. They each grabbed a handful of cookies I had baked and rushed out the door. FML

Today, after it appeared my daughter was throwing away any vegetables in her school lunch, I packed her all vegetables so she would have to eat at least one. Nope! She threw them out and complained to school that "mommy doesn't feed" her. I got a call from the school. FML

Fussy eater

Today, my kids and I went to have dinner with a coworker. After everyone ate, the kids went to play while I helped clear the dishes. To my horror, instead of individually wrapping the kids leftovers, she scraped all the uneaten food back into the main pots. I wanted to puke on the spot. FML

Today, all of my friends showed up an hour late for my 18th birthday party because they decided to go get dinner without me. FML

Today, it's my mom's birthday. I woke up at midnight to be the first to tell her happy birthday. When I awoke in the morning, I decided to bake her a cake. Little did I know my whole family was going out to lunch to celebrate. I wasn't invited. FML

Today, it's my birthday. I'd asked my mom weeks ago if she could watch my kids, so my husband and I could go celebrate. She told me an hour before we were supposed to leave I'd have to reschedule, so she could watch my brother's kids while he goes out for fun. Gee, thanks mom. FML

Today, my parents, my two sisters and their significant others went on a vacation and dropped their children at my house without ever asking me. I'm single, live alone, and can barely make ends meet, and they know it. FML

Today, I found out that my parents forgot to invite me out to eat with them. I found this out when my mom invited my sister right in front of me. FML

Call the cops informing them you found three lost children. Their mother would have a lot of explaining to do to get them back.

A store I sometimes go into has a sign that says: unattended children will be given lots of sugar and a puppy. I think that applies well here.

No, no. Unattended children will be given Bang energy drinks and allowed to socialize small puppies for an hour. Then the PARENTS get to deal with whether or not to bring the puppy home...

hopefully you called the mom and I sure hope you didn't give them money. and I really hope you hollered at her when she came to get her kids.

why traumatize the kids like that to punish and embarrass the mom. The cops are going to ask and she is going to say she forgot to rsvp but if one of the kids knows your kid then you are just going to look immature and petty

pretty sure the parent probably asked the daughter if she knew them, since this is an FML she definitely didnt recognize em

As a person, this disturbs me to no end ... And as a mother, it just plain infuriates me! What kind of person just abandons their children somewhere?? I don’t get humans anymore .. I really don’t!

I sure hope you stood up for yourself and reamed her out away from her kids. Ask for compensation, and don't back down. Probably too late to do it now though. :\

I'm going to guess that they weren't invited to the party, that the shitty excuse for a mother thought she could cadge some free babysitting. Did your daughter seem to know them? And yeah, I hope you yelled at the mother for just abandoning her kids like that.
