Today, it's been 3 months since my dog scratched my 9 year old granddaughter after she walked over and repeatedly kicked him. My daughter has disowned me and won't let me see my own grandchildren until I have my companion of 11 years "destroyed". FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I saw my grandfather kick my dog, who is a 6-pound chihuahua, across the room. When I confronted him about it, he screamed at me for having "too much sex during the apocalypse" and "invading my brain with your pancakes." This man is my legal guardian for 3 more years. FML
Today, it's been weeks since my teenage kids have walked the dog I got them; they also don’t play with it, pay it any attention, or feed it. It’s all been me, so since I never wanted it in the first place, I gave it to a friend of my mom's. My kids now think I’m the devil and my husband says I overreacted. FML
Today, my neighbor's 4-year-old daughter came up to me and asked if she could have my dog. When I said no, she started crying so much that her mom came out 5 minutes later and demanded that I give her daughter the dog. FML
Today, my mom's super spoiled small demon dog attacked my 3 year-old daughter, mauling her leg. Out of instinct, I kicked it away, causing it to fly across the room yelping. I picked up my daughter and took her straight to the hospital, where she got stitches. Later that night, I was greeted with a vet bill. FML
Today, it's been one week since my demented grandma babysat my five-year-old daughter while my husband took me to a fancy restaurant. Now she's taken to screaming and calling me a "damn commie" whenever I discipline or say no to her. FML
Today, I lost my custody battle and I have to return my grandchildren to my disowned daughter, who was allowing her now ex-husband to abuse them. I can't appeal or anything because frankly we don't have the funds. I wish I'd never had her. FML
Today, as punishment for getting caught kissing my precious newborn grandbaby two years ago, my son and his nasty wife have barred me from even meeting my second grandbaby until she's at least two months old. FML
Today, my daughter told me that now that she's a Christian, I can no longer see my grandchildren unless I repent from my "homosexual lifestyle." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I broke up. He now argues that he should keep the dog. We only dated for three months, and I've had the dog since I was ten. FML
Today, my grandmother hates me. So much so that I've become a rotten, desperate, and overall evil person with no thoughts and considerations towards other people. My family doesn't know this, but I can never undo the damage she has done to me since birth (as she raised me). I only care about my own well-being, nothing else. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Tell her to shut the **** up.

Clearly some adults haven't realized what your granddaughter either has by now or needs to: that there are consequences for actions and that animals are not punching bags.

It says "walked over and repeatedly kicked him"...I'm going to go with yes, it was her fault.

I'm assuming 13 meant it was the kid's fault she got bit.

Who's the mother in the relationship? I'd say grab your balls and assert your dominance, but since you don't have any, I'll just say tell her to shut the **** up and calm down.

this is a parent to child relationship, not a animal relationship in which dominance has to be asserted.

So parents are equals to kids now? That's what's wrong with America and why Yall have so many mass murderers because parents are too afraid of their kids. Go **** yourself.

Wow! Your granddaughter is an absolute brat and it's not hard to see where she gets it, I'm so sick of mothers blaming everyone else for their childs terrible behaviour

That's terrible. I hope you two can work it out and she realizes that your dog only responded naturally. You can't harm an animal and expect them to just let it happen. It's sad she's put you in that situation, maybe a compromise could be reached, such as just keeping the dog and children apart during visits. Anyways, best wishes to you OP, I hope you can work something out.

Totally agree. And let's hope that the 9 y.o. doesn't have any pets of her own.

I agree. I feel so sorry for op! Grandchildren are often the best stage for a grandparent and to have that relationship taken away is so sad! My parents would be totally devastated if they couldn't see their grandkids for 3 months, especially because they're used to seeing them several times a week. I can't believe your daughter has put you in this sort of a position and given you such an ultimatum. My advice would be to talk to your daughter, as calmly as possible, and suggest separating the dog and children when they come to visit and in the meantime maybe you go to their house instead of them coming to yours. Best of luck op, and I hope you can make her see reason, an ultimatum like this is devastating no matter what size you choose.

Sounds like a rotten lil bitch.

Tell her to discipline her daughter first! Animals are not toys

You should teach that bitch of a granddaughter a lesson about respecting animals. Don't bother giving that bitch any birthday presents she doesn't deserve them.
meli1195 31
whoa, she's only 9,even if she is a brat
SMHsohard 22
And 9 is old enough to understand that actions have consequences-act like a little shit towards me or a pet, you're going to be ignored. Simple enough. When I hear parents say "but my little angel is only a child" when they do something obnoxious, I know that they are raising a brat.

My thoughts exactly, 21. She ought to have used the situation as a teaching tool. When I was four I would pull our dog's tail and ears nonstop, despite what my mom would say. The dog was patient thing normally, but finally one day he got fed up and nipped my hand. My mom's response? "See, that's what happens." And that's how a child learns to respect animals if they don't already. This mom is telling her child that it's okay to hurt someone and then get revenge when they fight back.

Daughter or not your dog shouldn't have to pay for Her incompetence as a parent. Sorry OP, hope things get better for you.
