Today, I was upset after a fight with my husband, so I cried alone in the bedroom. My 4-year-old son then comes in and hugs me. I thought he was trying to comfort me, but he then told me he had to go get his quarter my husband had promised to pay him if he made me shut up. FML

Same thing different taste
Supportive
Today, I was crying after having argued with my boyfriend. My mom saw me, she asked, "Why are you crying? Don't you have homework to do?" FML
Today, I went to see my mother with my kids. Before, I had told my son to give her hugs and kisses and I would buy him candy. He did, but then he told her that I said that. FML
Today, my mom's friend came over. She brought her son and claimed that we could have bonding time. I ended up chasing the five-year-old around the house for an hour. After they'd left, my mom saw that the little kid had broken a lamp and a clock. She then said I had to pay for it using my money. FML
Back-seat parenting
Today, I yelled at my oldest son for picking his little brother up by the throat. Only to then be yelled at my my mother-in-law for hurting his feelings. FML
Pure evil
Today, my son got in an argument with my boyfriend, packed up his stuff, and moved in with his dad. Not five minutes later I saw my boyfriend doing his stupid happy dance. When angrily confronted, he admitted he orchestrated every argument for months until he got the result he wanted, my son gone. FML
Wise kid
Today, I had to give my four year-old daughter some tough love, which I hate doing. When she ran away crying, my son, her twin brother, looked at me and said, "You should be ashamed of yourself." FML
Home sweet home
Today, when I got home from the store, the dog was wiping his ass on the carpet, my two older boys were brawling, my youngest was crying because he'd broken a glass and cut himself, and my husband was in the kitchen, eating the cake I'd told him to leave alone. FML
Gold digger
Today, I asked my boyfriend to help me with groceries, since the last of my money went to last week's groceries. His response was to start a fight, then tell me it's my fault my daughter acts the way she does, which is when he finally got me to break down and cry. I'm pregnant with his kid, and I also pay 90% of our bills. FML
Time out
Today, after a fight, my boyfriend brought me a soda that exploded when I opened it. Furious at his constant childish bullshit, I threw his ass out. Two hours later, my son confessed that he'd shaken the cans as a joke. I tried to call my boyfriend, but he'd blocked my number. FML
Tetchy
Today, my husband broke a set of dishes, told me I had to clean it all up, and stormed out of the house. It’s now 3:30am and he still hasn’t come home. Our 5 year-old son keeps asking about him. What warranted all this? Asking him how his day went. FML

Good Idea! You should've given him a dollar to do something to return the favor though!

More than half these people in here don't know what a serious relationship is...yeah this is really grounds for divorce...good call...you'll make it 2 months with an attitude like that. He could have sent the kid in without paying him, but dad was pissed obviously and wanted to make a point. How do we know the mom didnt deserve it?

Even if she did deserve it, don't use the kid. Don't put the kid in the middle... they'll end up possibly scarred and will learn bad habits that will prevent them from carrying on normal relationships. If you're going to have a fight, be an adult and do it yourselves. Don't involve others like a child.

Point taken

If he never had intentions of the kid telling the mom about the quarter, dad did the right thing sending him in to comfort her. So possibly the kid an his loud mouth could be the culprit!

If you think a "serious relationship" involves fights that leave people crying and then sending in a four-year-old child to "shut up" the hurting person, I'm sure glad I'm not your significant other.

I wouldn't doubt it if the mom exaggerated on the "shut up" part. And people fight, and people cry. Wait till you live with someone...

Why are you married to this man? Was he always such an asshole?

Your all heartless bastards! Can't you see the subtle nuance of the male psyche at work? This was his way of extending an olive branch & saying, "Sorry honey, I effed up!" (Even my idiotic ex-wife couldn't understand this concept!)

#69 But he didn't send him in to comfort her. He sent him in to 'shut her up'. He's a douche and her kid is a mercenary.

Man, you sure married a winner. FYL for sure, but by the same token, this is why it's a good idea to make sure well ahead of time that the dude you're dating isn't a complete and total asshole before you decide to marry him.
