Today, my parents told me that due to my lacking height and weight, I legally have to sit in a booster seat in the car from now on. I'm nineteen. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out that if I were 2 inches shorter, I would have to sit in a booster seat in the car. I'm about to turn 22. FML
Today, I got pulled over, not because I was speeding but because apparently, I looked like a kid driving. The officer said I was too short to drive and needed a booster seat. FML
Today, I was seated, once again, at the "too small" children's table. I'm twenty. FML
Today, my parents told me that from now on I have to share a room with my 9-year-old sister. She already called top bunk. I'm 20. FML
Today, I had to sit through yet another one of my mom's, "You need to grow and gain some weight!" rants. I'm 22 and she doesn't believe me when I tell her I'm done growing. I'm pretty sure I'm not getting past 5'2". FML
Today, after boarding my flight, the flight attendant looked at me and said that I had to sit elsewhere because I had to be over 14 to sit near the emergency exit. I'm 22. FML
Today, my parents insisted that despite the fact I've just turned sixteen, I have to save them money by ordering from the children's menu, because I "still look like a twelve year-old." FML
Today, my dad learned how to use the parental controls. I now have an 11 o'clock curfew. I am 17. FML
Today, my parents decided to go on a diet. This would be perfectly fine if they didn’t insist I go on one too. I weigh less than 90 pounds and am underweight for my height. FML
Today, I discovered that I'm short enough to be legally considered a midget. My daughter now wants to bring me to school for show and tell. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I don't think it's for those above age 10.

YDI for being a midget, for being a scrawny wuss, for ever riding in a car for any reason at all, and for even having parents. SHAME on you.

Eating! Of course! Why didn't OP think of that? I'm in a pissy mood today so I'll stick an unrelated rant here about people who shout "Eat!" at naturally small-framed people or who shout "Eat less!" at naturally large-framed people. /rant

not everyone does, you don't have control over your thymus gland. you can exercise thought, but if youre small and skinny and have hypersecretion of thymosine (basically high metabolism) like I do, then you dont really have any control.

very high protein and exercise. you can still put on muscle weight no matter how high your metabolism is. and I am speaking from personal experience on this one.

Yeah, thats still bs. I've worked at McDonalds for over three years, I hate to admit it but I eat an unhealthy amount of it and I'm still under 100lbs. No matter what I eat (even outside of McDonalds) and no matter how much of it I eat, I can't make fat to turn into muscle. I guess what I'm trying to say is Everyones body is different. The same thing isn't going to work for everybody out there. Just go with the flow.

yeah. ******* mcdonalds is really what skinny people need to put on weight. I'm sorry but muscle creation is a rather simple process. also, you've already expressed your ignorance by saying fat turns into muscle. open a ducking book before opening your mouth. that's one of the biggest misconceptions about weight gain. I re-iterate. eating healthy, high protein calories the morning before a workout is how you put on muscle which will increase weight faster than fat. look, I weighed 95 lbs and wanted to start playing football in high school. I researched the topic, knowing that I had a very high metabolism, and put on 60 lbs of pure muscle in just over 6 months. I realize my case may be slightly extraordinary. but seriously, don't call bs on my comment when you can't even create a properly informed one yourself.

I'm sure the cops won't mind you not sitting in a booster seat. you don't have to sit in those after you're 8 anyway

Don't worry, it's no big deal. It is just a tiny error on your parents' part. Don't weigh your self down over this, just lighten up. Sorry if I offend you, sorry, it was very small of me.

It says "United States (Georgia)" right there on the FML. So, you're wrong, it can be in the US.
