Today, I discovered that I'm short enough to be legally considered a midget. My daughter now wants to bring me to school for show and tell. FML

Today, after having recently told my 4-year-old daughter that she won't grow big and tall if she doesn't eat her veggies, she decided to pass this wisdom on to a midget that we passed in the store. FML
Today, despite being in high school, I'm still shorter than the average 3rd grader. FML
Today, I got mugged by a midget. FML
Today, my friends and I go to a bar and get wasted. I walk around and see a kid. I start yelling, "There's a child in this bar! There's a CHILD in this BAR!" She turns around. She was a midget. FML
Today, I got my long hair cut in a short pixie cut. When my five year old daughter saw me she laughed and proclaimed 'You look just like a man!'. That afternoon I got a concerned call from the school. My daughter has told everyone 'mummy has gone away, I now have two daddies!' FML
Today, I realized that while I've been the same minuscule height for the past five years, my feet won't stop growing. I'm 5 foot and a size 12. I look like a clown. FML
Today, a 6th grader came up to me and told me I have the smallest breasts in the class. I'm their teacher. FML
Today, I'm a 5ft2 guy and I was at the seamstress's getting some dressy pants shortened for a wedding this week. She got it to the right length, then told me, "Don't worry, you're still growing." My dad started laughing, and she stared at me as I told her that I'm 25. FML
Today, in class I was teaching 6 year olds about the difference between short and tall, and I asked them how they could see that I was shorter than the other teacher. One of them raised their hand and said it was because I'm fatter. FML
Today, someone thought I was my boyfriend's daughter, instead of his girlfriend. I'm 4'11", he's 6'2", and this has happened four times already. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

That's a little insensitive of your daughter. You'll feel better shortly, though there's a small chance I'm wrong.

I'm 5'1" and to be honest it's awesome. Everyone moves outta my way at concerts and I get to be a princess a lot because I'm short and I can get other people to do things for me. Unless you are an ugly short female than FYL.

I'm confused. I have a friend who is 4'7", and she is NOT considered a 'little person'. I thought it was like 4'3" or something. 4'5"? Anywho.... I know how mad she gets about people commenting on her height, so I imagine OP doesn't really enjoy it, either!!

To be considered a little person you have to be 4'9 I think

I feel your pain, I made it only by a few inches. I'm 4'11" and all my friends tease me about it since they're all way taller than me :/

It is where you take something to school to show everyone and tell them about it, hence the name show and tell.
