Today, I was called by my son's school. They said he'd been forging my signature and comments in his reading book. He didn't forge them. I don't know what's worse: my handwriting looking like a 6 year-old's, or being too cowardly to admit it. He has a week of lunch detention, but I still have my dignity. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got sent to the principal's office because my Dad decided that instead of signing his name, he would sign, "Ms. Bigtits", because he wanted to make sure the teachers were paying attention to what their students handed in. FML
Today, my son's school called to inform me that I had to come pick him up, as he was caught vandalising. What shenanigans had he gotten up to? Writing "Epstein didn't kill himself" on various desks and walls around the school. I'm not sure if I should applaud the sentiment, or be annoyed that he got caught. FML
Today, my son, who to my great shame is a typical bully, was suspended for bullying a disabled girl. Her father must have been the biggest, meanest, most tattooed ex-marine I've ever seen. He blamed me for bad parenting, and I actually peed myself a little in fear, which he saw too. FML
Today, I found out why my history grade is so low: the kid in front of me takes my homework, writes his name on it, and passes it off as his own. FML
Today, I received a Saturday detention because the assignment I'd handed in had different handwriting. I've been practicing my handwriting skills for the past month. FML
Today, a fifth grader gave me a note from his "father" excusing him from PE. It was riddled with spelling errors and shockingly poor grammar, so I rejected it as a blatant fake. Several hours later, I was informed by his very angry father that it wasn't actually fake. FML
Today, I finally stood up for myself and beat the crap out of a bully at school, as my father told me to do. The kid and I were called to the principal's office, along with our parents. Inside my father's smirk faded when he saw that the kid's mom was his boss. FML
Today, my wife got a call from my son's school, telling her that he was talking inappropriately in class, using bad language. Neither my wife or I ever use foul language, spoken or written. I feel like such a failure as father and parent. FML
Today, my so-called friend snitched to the teachers that I was the admin of the school confessions page and I got scolded after school. FML
Today, my 9-year-old son decided honesty is the best policy and to never lie again. And by that, I mean he's decided to go ahead and blurt out every mean comment he can think of. In one school day, he made 6 kids cry, was punched by 4 other kids, was reprimanded by 3 teachers, and was uninvited to a birthday party. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You let your kid get a week's worth of detention because you won't admit it was you? Some parent you are. Your kid's gonna be pissed at you, and you deserve all of it.

You certainly do NOT have any sort of "dignity" at all; all this shows is that you're an insecure prat who would rather betray the honesty of their own child for the sake of something SO petty as handwriting. Not only is this an FML (which should really have been because you lied to your son's teacher) but a severe failure of ethics and a plethora of other terms regarding proper conduct.

You're setting a bad example, send your kid to live with his other parent and hope he actually grows up with some balls.

Funny how all the wrong people end up becoming parents. I sure as hell would never do that to my flesh & blood, because I have that fancy thing.. oh what's it called.. Oh yeah, MORALS.

this sounds like it was probably written by son about something that happened when he was a kid. if so, your parent really sucks

I'm not gonna blame this on him/her being french, because thats stupid and half racist. theres nothing wrong with the french, but that was just about the worst thing you could ever do to your child. who cares about your handwriting? it doesnt matter, nobody cares if your handwriting is bad, alot of peoples are. but telling your sons school that he forged stuff when he didnt ios a terrible thing to do. this is gonna be on his permanent record, and even though colleges dont look at 1st grade, hes not going to be respected, or trusted by anyone. and hes not gonna let you off easy, thats just plainmean. you'll get your dignity back when purple unicorns take over. your life isnt ******, your sons is.

YDI. I actually made an account just because of this post. Did you honestly think your dignity was so much more important than your child? Why did you reproduce to begin with?
