Today, my elderly neighbor along with our community church's priest came to my house and demanded to "give them the girl". The girl is my 3-year-old daughter, who has natural born red irises and is photo-sensitive. And yes, we are also Romanian. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, some guys were doing construction on my house, when one of them came over and started asking me about my "hot sister". That "sister" is my 13-year-old daughter. FML
Today, I found out that my seemingly innocent 80-something neighbor has been stalking every girl in the neighborhood, and considers me his girlfriend. FML
Today, my grandmother called me in a fit of panic because her new neighbors are black. So is my fiancé, whom she is supposed to meet tomorrow. FML
Today, we've been dating for over three months, but I went over my girlfriend's house for the first time. As we walked through the door, I was greeted by a little girl whose first words to me were, "Are you my daddy?" FML
Today, I was with my four year-old daughter when we met an elderly, rather wrinkled woman I know. My daughter looked at her for a while and then asked, "Why doesn’t your skin fit your face?" FML
Today, I was stretching on the balcony, when I heard my neighbor's daughter scream. She was playing in their kiddie pool and thought I was peeping on her. And now her parents think so too. FML
Today, I met a nice girl and decided to ask her out. Later on she showed me a picture of her with her family, she was wearing red and everyone else black. I said jokingly "you look like the adopted child" only to find out that her had parents died and she was indeed adopted. FML
Today, I was working at a portrait studio and was taking pictures of a little girl, I kept telling the girl to stop making silly faces when she smiles because her eyes go cross-eyed. After the third time I said it her mom grabbed the little girl and left. Turns out, she was naturally cross-eyed. FML
Today, a little girl looked at me and yelled "Mommy look, there's a real leprechaun!" FML

Westboro hates everyone. I don't think that would make a difference.

Still a better story than "Twilight." No, wait, that IS the story of "Twilight!" Is she sparkly like Edward?

How rare is that? I've never heard of red irises?

It happens with some albinoes. She could be either compltely albino or just partially.

Actually there is NO recorded case of a natural red iris. However albinos eyes can give off a red hue but only because they lack pigment to give off a "real" color. What you are seeing is the blood vessels in the eye itself. So either OPs daughter is a medical marvel, or affected by the aforementioned lack of pigment.

Not yet there isnt

why the **** do you expect OP to post "my daughter born with no pigment in her eyes so it gives the illusion of being red but really their colorless"
ForwardUn2Dawn 18
I had forgot about the appearance of an albinos eyes! I hope OP replies, I would very much like to know if the kid is an albino. If so, the neighbor and priest's reaction is no better than the sicking superstition seen in many villages throughout Africa!

#76 I did not expect OP to do anything. I was answering number 20's question. Way to over react.

I just want to say that red eye color isn't impossible. Ruby red eye color is unheard of yes, but a lot of people have purple/red eyes. It's a trick of the true eye color against the blood vessels behind it. A few of my cousins have the purple/red eye color(depends on the lighting) even though they are brown kids like me.

There may not be red irises, but maroon is well documented.

That is so cool!

The retina of the eye is red. Without pigment to conceal that, the red of the retina is all that you see. Now I'm no medical expert, but this is my belief on this matter. I do ask that, if I'm wrong, someone let me know.

Neighbors like that can drive you batty! With so much at stake, you could get bloody cross!
