Today, after two weeks of being grounded, I was finally let out of the house by my mom. I had to call her at 1am asking her to come get me, because I got so drunk, I told my ride to leave without me. I'm grounded again after less than a day of freedom. FML

Tasha_1996 tells us more.

Hello everyone. I didn't know my FML got posted until now. This was more to express what an idiot I am than to be told I'm an idiot. For people asking questions, I'm 16 and live in Saskatchewan. A small town where there's **** all to do. There is nothing wrong with my mothers parenting, I respect her for coming to get me and grounding me. I was grounded for another month after this happened and am going to addictions councelling starting the New year. I was out last night, first night off of grounding again and didn't have a sip of alcohol. Originally, I wasn't going to comment. But I figured you guys deserved an update. Yes I deserved it.

If you're old enough to still be grounded, you're not old enough to drink. Ydi.

Grounding is usually to teach you a lesson and not be bad. She probably thought you learnt your lesson but, clap clap, you proved her wrong.

It sounds like you learnt a valuable lesson and are maturing well. I know it sounds melodramatic but you may have just saved your own life given the number of adolescents who die of alcohol poisoning, drink driving or poisoned recreational drugs. Good on you too, for being honest about it all.

Wow..is this real? I didn't know they made kids this dumb!

There is no way you didn't deserve this, you irresponsible twat.

Remember the goal is to not get caught

It says on the FML that OP is from Canada. I Googled it, and the legal drinking age in Canada is 18/19. Age of majority is either 18 or 19, depending on location (19 in Saskatchewan). So if OP was 18 at the time of the FML and happens to be where age of majority is 19, I could see why she could be old enough to drink and get grounded. Not everyone lives in America, remember.
