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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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.

Your daughter is a ******* ass. I went off on my Nieces father for kicking my dog because my niece was playing with him and he got excited to play and he wagged his tail and hit her with it. I pushed him and rd him if he ever laid a hand or kicked my dog again I would knock him the **** out!

I am incredibly sorry. You have my sympathy.

You say her kick the dog repeatedly and still allowed her to be near the dog. Then you let the dog lash out. I love my dog like she is my third child, but if she ever lashes out at any family or friend that would be her last day.

Wow. So you would kill your supposed "third child" for defending itself against an assault? People who would put down dogs for defending themselves should not own dogs. Too many dogs are already killed because they defend themselves from cruel people or disrespectful children.

Obviously your daughter is deficient in parenting skills and needs a reality check. Shame on her for not seeing the bully that her daughter is towards the dog.

Dogs can only take so much. And there is no reason she should have to train her dog to tolerate repeated kicking, a 9 year old should know better or they are horribly cruel.

The dog scratched the granddaughter, I would say that the dog is pretty well trained. An untrained dog would have bitten her.

There are some children that are completely ungrateful of their parents. So this whole "you gave birth" thing is null and void in my book. I make it very clear to my daughter that you use "nice touches" with animals. And for being a 1 yo. She does just fine, it's her daughters fault, not the dog!

Good for you teaching your daughter how to be gentle with animals. :)

She needs therapy. Keep the dog.

She needs to control her shitty kid.

To all those saying the child doesn't know any better: My 3 year old knows not to be mean to animals. There's absolutely NO REASON a 9 year old shouldn't know what a 3 year old does. That little girl's butt would be redder than red if that had been my animal. And I agree with the no birthday/Christmas presents comment someone made. If she's that big of a brat, she doesn't need anything from the person who's animal she hurt. OP, please don't tear yourself up over not seeing the grandchildren. If that's how they're going to be raised, then there's nothing you can do about it. Love and spoil your dog, obviously he deserves it.

Have a 3 year old niece that is a budding drama queen: she would intentionally slap my dog and then run screaming when my dog growled. I now watch them like a hawk to guard my dog from the little psychopath. Her mom is too busy on her phone to notice.

Your daughter is psychotic. People that think kids should be able to abuse animals and not face the consequences need to be slapped.
