Today, I was at a restaurant with my kids. I told my 13 year old about how the very first time she said she loved me. She was 2 and it was at this very restaurant. I told her the details and even started tearing up a little. She didn't even look up from her cell phone and said, "That's fab, ma." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, my daughter said "I love you mom", to me for the first time I can remember. She is 16 years old. She said it because I bought her first thong. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I were talking about times we'd made our mothers cry. She said she'd only made her mother cry once. When I asked when, she said, "When I told her I was thinking about dating you." FML
Today, I told my mom, "I love you". She responded with, "What? I never told you I loved you." FML
Today, I kissed my husband and said, "I love you." That's when our 5 year-old son said to my husband, "How can you love her so much if she's so ugly?" FML
Today, I told my mom I loved her a lot. Her reply? "Thanks." FML
Today, I told my girlfriend I love her for the first time. She said, "Thanks." FML
Gratitude walks
Today, it's my soon to be 12 year-old daughter's birthday. On my break at work I texted her how much I loved her and happy birthday. She replied with, "K, when will you be home? Mom won't let me open presents until you're here." Good to know I'm loved. FML
Cute
Today, my boyfriend said, "One day I'll tell my children how I met you. I mean, our children." It's pretty cute, except for the fact that we're 17 and have been dating for only two weeks. FML
Awwww
Today, I asked my kids how much they loved me. My seven year-old responded, 'I'll love you forever mummy.' My sixteen year-old responded, 'Can you wind down the window, I just farted.' FML
Today, I told my daughter that she should put some love into her cooking. She started kissing the ingredients. FML

I'm only a year older than OP's daughter, and I would have probably gushed all about it! :') Am I the only one who loves hearing stories about their childhood?

Gosh.. That make things a bit awkward especially the tearing up part! But I see where you're coming from so FYL.

I'm 15 and I'm not like that at all. I keep my phone or iPod away when I'm eating or talking to someone.

I really think people who are saying "I hate my generation" are just people who want thumbs up. I'm sick and tired of every goddamn person who thinks they are mature and better than the rest of us by saying how stupid and inconsiderate we all are. News flash, we are not all the same!

Some Technologies like cell phone ruined lives...

I'm gonna have to say YDI... You sound like one of those mothers who spoil their children, like getting them a cellphone at 13. If you spoil them, they'll only love you if you give them things.

Our generation is screwed

She's 13. Even without the cell phone, at most she'd probably just get embarrassed. It doesn't mean she doesn't love you, it means she's at an age where talking about it like that is strange for her.

What else did you expect? She's thirteen. I mean, I am a teenager myself, and I know that I HATE it when my mom does stuff like that to me. I couldn't care less what I was like at age three, and honestly, it's embarrassing as hell, even if there is nobody around. I would probably look up and put my phone away, but still, I doubt I could muster anything better than a "Oh... well, that's great, mom." It's just a normal part of growing up. Maybe ask her politely to put her phone away, but nothing more.

There are some people in this world who would love to hear what they were like at they age. To bad they can't because thier parents were such druggies that DHS has to step in and remove them from thier home. And yeah I'm one of those people.
