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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I think the only reason my mom hosts my kid's birthday, and other parties at her huge house in the country, is so she can be a complete bitch to us on the day, and if we even sound annoyed, it's, "Well, this is my home, I don't have to open it to anyone." FML
Today, I got into THE party of the year. Too bad it was the party my daughter was throwing while her father and I were out of town. FML
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
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
Today, it's my birthday. A month ago, I'd told everyone I invited to my party that it was going to be adults only. One of my friends brought her kids with her anyway, then started screaming and trashing the place when I politely asked her to leave. The cops had to be called to finally get her out of my house. FML
Today, I found out my daughter was planning a wedding and invited everyone but me. FML
Today, my daughter is such a bitch that when her husband texted to say he’d be 30 minutes late after work, she rang him to yell at him. He got so upset, he decided not to come home at all and booked a hotel, which was awkward for everyone waiting to surprise him with a birthday party. FML
Today, my daughter asked to go to a party and I said no, because I know some of the other people going and they're bad news. She then said she only asked permission as a courtesy, and is going anyway and just left. She lives with me but she did turn 18 last week, and I don’t know what to do. FML
Today, I was uninvited from my own birthday party. FML
Today, it was my daughter's 11th birthday party. One kid broke a vase, another lost a (baby) tooth, and two kids, including mine, tested positive for Covid. My kid parties harder than I ever have. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I admit I'm not the most polite person, but sometimes you just need to tell someone to shut up and leave.

Guess who isn't being invited back.

Yeah **** the kids life (with the bitch parent). I'd be super embarrassed if I was 13 and my mum stayed at the party with me. I'm 21, so it's different now, but back then... :Z Ain't no body got time fo dat!

Next time just refuse when she wants to stay at your house... There is no place for such impolite person.

You do have the power to tell this parent and kid to leave. I'm sorry, but why didn't you? I don't always vote YDI, but when I do, they deserved it.

It's not the kid's fault her mother is a massive ****. It's also unfair on OP's daughter who has to have one less friend at her birthday party.

but Unless the kid is really young she should have remembered to remind her mother or asked her mother to get a gift/give her money to get a gift for her friend

#68- It's possible that the kid did ask but the mom flat out refused.

I am a bit confused...how did each kid except hers? Maybe I am just tired i don't know

I think OP meant that all the other kids brought gifts for her daughter (their friend) And the kid with the mean mum didn't bring a gift for OP's daughter. I could be wrong! God knows they'll hang you for making a damn assumption on FML, aha

#31 that was my understanding of it as well.

unless the kid is really young she should have remembered to get her friend something to. That part isn't entirely the **** of a mother's fault

You must be a really patient person because I would eventually explode and put that bitch in her place. You are a saint!

Don't take that! Tell her if she doesn't like it she can leave

Some people feel their presence is present enough. Usually it is a delightful person like you experienced.

Why would you let her stay? I would have told her bye felicia the minute she tried to sleep over.

She sounds like she has Aspergers.
