Today, my mom kept swearing and punished me while I was in an online lesson. I almost got punished by the teacher as well. FML

Today, after a conference with my teacher who had previously accused me of not doing my homework, she finally discovered she'd been losing it all this time. I've been getting straight Fs for a month. FML

Today, I was told by my teacher that she had 'given up' teaching me because someone had told her I have a mental illness, and that I don't understand what she says. FML

Not missing out on much
Today, my mom is obsessed with my academic success, as she was a highschool dropout, and actually gives me more homework than my school does, all so I’ll be more advanced than my peers. I barely know what a television is anymore, since it’s been so long I’ve had enough free time to watch one. FML

I remember from back when I was in grade school, we had these tapes that had songs about stuff like that. one song was "action words are verbs". I hope that helps a lil bit.

Don't worry, OP, there are plenty of career choices for those with only up to a third grade education. There's Wendy's, Burger King, MacDonalds...

Everyone has those moments. I'm sure she will remember what a verb is, but for now, here ya go. A verb is an action word. Anyways, if you know what it is does it matter? You could always remind her.

Verb. It's what you do.

When did "of" become a verb?
monkeysinatree 6
Sorry, my bad :S

I'm pretty sure "of" is one of those helping verb things.
alexFYL 11
wut? Of is a preposition. Google a preposition list.

You took the words right out off my iPod touch keyboard (:

Derp, my bad. I don't know why I thought of was a verb.

Probably because people sometimes mistakenly put it where have should be. Should of, would of, could of...

Real school? Home-schooled students are statistically more educated then public and private schooled students... isn't education the point of school? OPs Mom should not be his teacher. And this 'REAL school' guy needs to stfu with his ignorant ass.

I'm homeschooled. I used to think I was terrible at school, as I only got B's. But when I had to go to a public school for about six months. I was the top student, in the whole school of 600+

if your old enough to post an FML, you'd remember that you learned about verbs in first grade.
TheWindowLicker 13
If you read the fml you'd know that OP is home schooled. You would also realize that OP never said he/she forgot, only that his/her mother forgot.
HeavyMetalViking 0
and you'd remember that OP's mum was his first grade teacher.

also in some states you don't have to follow the schools learning schedule.

This is why they made schools. Don't you get board at home all by yourself?

Being homeschooled and "board" have nothing to do with each other.
brenz1126 0
wow man thats the joke. he was substituting board for bored as he talked about education to make a pun-like witty retort ;)
monkeysinatree 6
they still are relate anyway since if you're homeschooled you aren't surrounded by a mass of people like you would be if you went to school
chloee484 2
Oh my gosh. to everyone who has commented on this post, the "board" you are talking about, meaning uninterested, is spelled B-O-R-E-D. You are talking about a wooden board. Like a plank? Maybe homeschooling is the way to go....
