Today, my mom has forbidden me from drinking skim milk, because my sister is upset that I'm skinnier than her. The same sister who refuses to drink any other milk than 2% chocolate. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom claimed that lactose intolerance is a "myth" and told me to drink my damn milk because it's good for my bones. FML
Today, my mom complained that I never do anything nice for her, so while out shopping I bought her favorite chocolate bar. When I got home, she screamed at me because she’s on a diet. FML
Today, my sister was concerned that her daughter (my niece) was sick, and hesitant to take her to the ER. I asked if she'd eaten something she shouldn't have, and she replied, "No, especially since we feed her the most healthy food we can." This was fine until I flipped out when she said, "We even give her raw milk so that she'll be strong." FML
Today, we ran out of milk and my 4 year-old son came up to me and asked if he could "milk" my wife's breasts for his cereal. Apparently, he thinks my wife doesn't love him and his sister is selfish for not sharing her milk. His sister is only one month old. FML
Today, my mother offered me some chocolate milk. I took a few gulps before I realized the label said it was raw unpasteurized milk. When I pointed this out to my mother, she asked me what pasteurization is. We might get sick because my mother is the most horrifically ignorant and out-of-touch person on earth. FML
Today, I threw a tantrum because my younger sister ate my chocolate. I'm almost 18. FML
Today, I was on the phone with my little sister as she explained that all these guys like her now that she's so skinny and beautiful. My mom must have overheard me tell my sister that at least I was a cuter child, because my mom laughed and said, "Yeah right, we had to buy you fat kid diapers." FML
Today, despite begging my parents to get food other than diet and weight loss stuff, they refused. I'm bullied for being skinny on a daily basis. FML
Today, my aunt said that it looked like I lost some weight. I was pleased with this, since I've been trying to lose some. My mom, for some reason, thought it was insulting. She pulled me to aside to assure me that I most definitely don't look any skinnier. FML
Today, I found out my mom intentionally puts extra butter and oil in the food she cooks for me because she wants me to be fatter than her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Skim milk is disgusting anyway, you're not missing out on much. 1% is a compromise. 2% is the paragon of milk greatness.

79 So go run 5 miles and show me how wrong this misconception of ours really is. I work at a sports nutrition and supplement store bud helping people get into shape and some of the most unhealthy are the high metabolic rate kids who think that healthy diets don't concern them. 105 Nothing wrong with the natural sugars in fruit as long as you eat them in moderation, you do in fact need some if these natural sugars for your body. Just like carbs they are used for your natural energy and glycogen replenishment. It's all about balance and moderation in your diet as well as eating as much unprocessed and natural food as possible.

My mom would be like "stop complaining. Get up and exercise fatass." She would never make my siblings drink 2% chocolate just because I thought they were too skinny.

It's not like drinking 1% or 2% white milk is gonna make you fat.

That's just dumb. I can't belive the lengths parents go to make one child happy and the other miserable.

You don't get your milk, she don't get hers.

To each according to their insecurities, from each according to their ability to resist the fat! Redistribute the calories! Equalize the ugliness! Power to the people! Who are you to be thinner and prettier that your sister? Occupy the salad bar! :)

Drink water. She can't stop you from drinking that and tell your sister to get off her ass, exercise and eat a better diet if she wants to loose weight. I understand some people have a harder time with weight (myself included) but she shouldn't expect you to gain weight just to make herself feel better.
