Today, my teenage daughter faked a suicide because I bought her a Samsung instead of an iPhone for her birthday. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I bought my girlfriend an iPhone. I preloaded it with a bunch of cool apps and stuff and spent a lot and money. She used it to send a text to me 3 hours later saying that she thought we should break up. FML
Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. FML
Today, my sister refuses to talk to me because I didn't post her a "Happy birthday" in an Instagram story. It seems that the iPhone 12 I gave her as a present is just not enough. She's 19. FML
Today, my daughter and her best friend made an elaborate plan that she was kidnapped, causing me to cough up $7000 in ransom money, which I later found out was a hoax. All this because she’s still upset I left her terminally ill mother for my current girlfriend. FML
Today, I went to visit some family out of state for my niece's birthday. I couldn't think of what to get an 8-year-old so I got her a Barbie doll. Everyone else got her money, iPods, game consoles, etc. When she got to mine she asked "how do I turn it on?" Then threw it away when she couldn't. FML
Today, I discovered that my 17-year-old daughter received several weird deposits from Paypal. I checked her phone to discover that she had changed the password for the first time in years. Fearing drugs, I confronted her. She broke down and confessed to selling rare digital Pokemon on eBay. FML
Today, I asked my fiancé's daughter to use her phone so I could call mine which I'd misplaced. Busy with homework, she nodded. Only after she jumped up did I notice that she had my number listed with a humiliating nickname, and accompanied by a photo of her middle finger. FML
Today, my 18 year-old daughter comes home, telling me she has been fired from her job at McDonalds. The reason? They had iCarly Happy Meal toys and she couldn't resist stealing one. FML
Today, I got a call informing me that my 16-year-old daughter had been arrested for shoplifting jewellery. Trying to look on the bright side, I assumed it was for my birthday that is coming up in a few days. Nope. It was a "Thank you" gift. For her drug dealer. FML
Today, my daughter asked to use my phone to find hers. Instead, she sent multiple messages to my boyfriend, trying to break up with him. When asked why she did it, she said it’s because she wants me to get back with her father. This would be somewhat understandable if she wasn’t 32 years-old. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Talk about spoiled
mkstar13 13
Seriously people they're all phones. Btw, she is a spoiled brat. That is something that should never be tolerated. Ever.

normally i say tell this little brat off because suicide is not something to joke about but instead have her committed like you don't realize she was faking and say how you don't want to lose her a little time in a center might fix her attitude [also considering i've been using second hand phones from siblings and my father since i was old enough to have a cellphone i be damn happy to have a new phone no matter what brand]

To everyone saying that she's a "spoiled brat", you don't know that. There are a lot of reasons why someone might do this.

Yeah, she did it because she didn't get an iPhone. She's spoiled.

What #66 said. There's no legitimate reason to fake a suicide because you don't like a gift. Perhaps you are OPs daughter?

#56 please list one of those reasons

How ungrateful! I'd take it off her so then she didn't have any until she learnt a bit of respect. I worry for the future generations

Make her wish she had suicided

You can't suicide.

Take any and all electronics away from her. If she needs to use a computer limit her use of it. Same goes with watching TV. As someone who's suffered from depression and had suicidal thoughts, I find this extremely disrespectful, particularly to those who have unfortunately succeeded in their attempts at suicide. I would also make her pay for her own hospital bill.

If I were you I would take away the samsung and give her one of those old school heavy brick phones with aerials that can only make calls. Carrying one of those around will be way more embarrassing for her than not having a phone at all.

Normally I don't condone violence towards children, but that little shit deserves a good ass kicking. You do NOT take suicide lightly like that, especially over something as trivial as a ******* cell phone.
