Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I was sad, but the only thing my mom could say was, "You should have waited until I got him to mow the lawn." FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Your mom has definitely got her priorities straight *sarcasm*

I'd like to remove the sarcasm from that, those neighbor kids charge an arm and a leg to mow it nowadays; let alone hiring a professional. Free lawn mowing? Way to go mom.

That sucks OP :( I'm sorry about your breakup and your mom's terrible attitude. But you can come out of this a stronger person :)

I think that the mom was just joking, trying to make light out of a sad situation the daughters going through. I don't think the mom was being serious at all. Sorry OP, it will get better. Keep smiling ;)

She may have been joking, but there is such a thing as "too soon". The mother's comment may have made OP feel worse.
