Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I gave a safe sex speech to teens at my local high school. This was just ten minutes after my girlfriend had texted me telling me she's pregnant. FML
Today, my 14-year-old daughter told me she's pregnant and plans on dropping out of school to live a life on the road with her boyfriend. FML
Today, I had to call a parent and tell them that their special needs daughter is pregnant. FML
Today, my 14-year-old step-daughter announced that she is 4 months pregnant. The father is my 15-year-old son. FML
Today, my youngest, the 17 year-old, told me she’s pregnant. That makes it official: despite all my warnings about safe sex, all three of my daughters got pregnant before the age of 18. FML
Today, my 15-year-old birth daughter asked if I've ever had sex. FML
Today, I went with my son to a conference about sexual education at his high school. I guess it was all too late, because among the attendees I saw three girls from the same high school who were already pregnant. They aren't even 18. FML
Today, after ranting to my best friend about how all our friends are having kids and how teenage pregnancy will ruin their lives, she announced to me that she's pregnant. FML
Today, not only did I find out that my 13 year-old daughter is pregnant, I found out that she did it on purpose "to prove that she’s responsible." FML
Today, I sat down with my daughter to have the sex talk, because she recently started seeing a guy. I mentioned at one point how disappointed I would be if she got pregnant. She went wide-eyed and asked, "Didn't mom tell you?" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

there's no such thing as safe sex. a couple can use condoms, diaphragms, the pill, etc but truly safe sex does not exist. she was probably rebelling against you and your unwise teachings, to prove that you were wrong.

anyone who has sex before marriage should be killed. I hate teenagers who drink or have sex.

That is extremely naive of you. Having sex before marriage is not necessarily a wise decision. However, some people (myself included) do not want to get married; does that mean we can't have sex? Although sex is never 100% safe, nothing is, and if you're careful, it's no so risky. As Dr. Brennan (from the show Bones) would say, "marriage is an antiquated ritual" and it is unrealistic to be happy in a relationship for your entire life. There's a reason people are getting divorced more frequently; society places a higher value on "true love" than it used to. The daughter shouldn't be having sex at the age of fourteen, but a fully grown adult should not be killed for having sex and not being married. Also, abstinence until marriage doesn't mean that getting pregnant after marriage is a good idea. A huge percentage of American marriages end in divorce, often after the parents have children. People should learn to wait a few years before they have kids (my parents waited 9 years, and they're still happily married). Often times, the divorce is as bad as teenage pregnancy, because the teen is more likely to realize that they can't handle the child and will consider other options. The young wife, on the other hand, will probably think it's great, and then get divorced two years later, and leave her child without a father, or means to support it. Also, there is no mention of drinking in this post. This page isn't a place for people to post irrelevant comments. I agree that teenage drinking, and drinking in general, is not good, but find a better place to talk about it.

http://www.fmylife.com/intimacy/226342#c_3628619 ...yeah.... way to many kids gettin' knocked up these days.... Anyway, to the OP, I'm sorry, that's terrible! Maybe it'll be a miscarriage.... I heard somewhere that about half of first pregnancies end is miscarriage? But I'm not sure, don't quote me. Anyway, just talk her through it. You're lucky she told you before something really bad happened.... My Aunt lost her virginity at 14, and is now happily married to the guy that stole her v-card ;) anyway, good luck!

I honestly can't believe you are practically rooting for a miscarriage... WTH is wrong with you? I'm no religious fanatic, I'm pro-choice, but honestly, that is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Choosing to get an abortion is one thing, but deciding to go through with it and hoping for a miscarriage... Jeez I hope you never reproduce.

If she doesn't want an abortion a miscarriage is the only chance she has at life, I don't think it's that ****** up.

Don't worry, OP. This just gives you more material in your speech.

If safe sex is taught more than or as much as celibacy then your life sucks. If your only stance for her was to wait until marriage YDI. Teach your children how to keep themselves healthy and safe FIRST.
