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

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
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?

Faking a suicide cause you didn't get an iphone. **** that. Teach her humility. The world doesn't revolve around her. Also tell her that she won't have ANYTHING but the clothes she was buried in and the worms who will be eating her when she's really dead. See how she feels then. Ungrateful kid.

I am sorry, but I would never be friends with a spoiled kid such as yours. My generation is just so stupid.

Yeah your daughter seems seriously spoiled. Honestly take back the phone and say that she doesn't deserve it. That'll teach her a lesson. If the behavior continues then restrict money and such, make her get a job if she wants to continue spending.

Seems like the only way she'll appreciate anything is if she has to work and earn it herself. I really hope you don't keep buying her things after that.

What would happen if you got her a windows? Actually attempt suicide? (Of course this is an opinion she might have appreciated that)

Jeez! That's so spoiled and selfish! I admit that if I had gotten a different brand of phone I might have been slightly disappointed because I am an Apple girl, but I would say thank you and keep it to myself and ask if I could have an iPhone two years later when the phone plan ran out or if the phone broke, this is just ridiculous! This girl really needs to learn some manners and she might have some issues to deal with if she sees this as worthy of a fake suicide... Nothing is worthy of that!

I didn't get a phone until I was 18 and could pay for it myself, and even though my phone may not be the best, I'm just grateful to have one. Take away your daughter's phone until she learns a lesson about what it means to work for something.
