Today, I told my parents I was pregnant but don’t know who the Dad is. My Mom said “that’s alright, I still don’t know who your dad is”. So apparently my father isn’t my real Dad. FML

Today, my youngest of four children turned 18. It was also the same day that my ex-wife called to tell me that after 18 years of paying child support, I wasn't the father. FML

Today, it's my 21st birthday. I got a call from my deadbeat dad, who I thought had finally mellowed and had something nice to say. Nope; he just told me I'm 21 years a disappointment, then hung up. FML

Today, it's my birthday. My dad was supposed to take me to get a tattoo, but instead he went to the bar, got drunk, and told me how I was the biggest mistake he and my mom have ever made. FML

Today, I turned 17. My parents completely forgot it was my birthday, and when I reminded them, my dad thought it was my 18th. He was ecstatic and mentioned that I can "finally get the hell out." FML

Today, it's my birthday and my mom took me and some friends to an amusement park. Looking for a tampon, I found a phone in my mom's purse that I didn't recognize. Turns out my mom is cheating on my dad. Happy birthday to me, I guess. FML

That guy in prison was the sperm donor. The guy who changed your diapers and lived with you for 18 years is your Father.

I completely agree, but the point is that OP's mom lied to him about who his father was, and his biological father's whereabouts. Parents seem to think hiding stuff from their kids will protect them (mine do that all the time) but really, it just makes a bad situation worse, because now OP won't ever trust his mom again.

people chill out i would be mad if i have to wait 18 years to find out my father acually killed someone id be happy that the other guy was a great father to me its still kind of alot to take in when all you wanted to do was celebrate the fact you just turned 18. -_-

Oh snap! Sux4u. There's a difference between a biological father and a father though. The father that took care of you for 18 years is your father. The dude in prison just helped make you. No big deal. - S.
