Wouldn't the OP be used to it by now, though?...

sad. so sorry for u.

thats what you get for living in Missouri!

All families need a little dysfunction in it to survive. I guarantee if it was 'perfect' looking, your parents would split. It's just the way the 'rule of thumb' goes with families. If your parents stopped fighting or having any sort of dysfunction in open view of the rest of the family, that's when you start worrying. They have the mentality of "Don't show our kids the splitting up fights". Although, too much dysfunction is bad too. So, a dad that gets drunk (as long as it's not 3+ days a week) and a sister that gets stoned isn't that bad. Is a pretty good balance between perfect and extreme dysfunction, in my opinion. My father gets drunk once in a while and looks silly, my mother and I fight all the time, my brother is a stoner, and we think my sister is a lesbian. It's family life. I love it. This is not a FML or YDI at all.

He just didn't want his mother to write it.

At least it sounds like your family knows how to have a good time !

Lmao your family is awsome! this ain't a FML it's a MLIA! Lucky.

Yeah, this made me cry. For his poor mother.

this is by far the best FML. And it's a true fml as well and a heeeeel yeah ylf !
