Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom told me to break a leg before performing in my dancing school's show. I really did break part of my leg while performing. FML
Today, I broke my leg while trying to show my friend how I broke my other leg. FML
Today, I was studying on a bench outside my dorm when the leg snapped. I decided to do the right thing and let administration know what happened. After assuring me it wasn't my fault, and having me fill out an incident report, they billed me $400. I can't enroll for next semester until I pay. FML
Today, I texted my mom if she could pick me up from the hospital. She replied, "No fatty, walk home." I have a broken foot. FML
Today, I spent an excruciating hour walking to campus with a broken leg, only to find my professor had left a note on the door saying class was canceled. FML
Today, I fell down the stairs and landed heavily on my foot. Because I wasn't crying, my mom refused to take me to the hospital. It took me an hour of agony to convince her. It turned out to be broken in three different places. FML
Today, I decided to be healthy and go for a run. I broke my ankle. FML
Today, my parents told me that I'm going on our upcoming family vacation and that's final. I broke both my legs in an accident and have to use a wheelchair. I"m in constant pain and don't want to go anywhere. FML
Today, I broke my toe and screamed, "Fuck!" My mom heard and yelled at me for swearing, while I laid on the floor in pain. FML
Today, I sprained my ankle while playing soccer. I still have to walk home. In the rain. FML

Usually places with no refund policies will bend the rules for serious medical conditions such as a broken leg or at least offer credit and be able to take the course later. Ive gotten refunds or credit from stores/services with no refund policies many times.

Or as someone else has mentioned, maybe they can reschedule for after your leg heals. That way you're still getting your full lesson in. It would suck to have to pay for something you couldn't participate in (through no fault of your own), and I'm sure the companies manager would understand that. If it's a private lesson it should be easy to reschedule, if it's a public lesson, maybe you can stop the course now and pick up the next session when it starts? I'm imagining this being similar to swimming lessons and you could therefore drop out of the one your taking and instead take the next set of lessons when the next one starts.

I really despise those kind of parents.

Tell her to go if it's a waste...then at least she'll know how to play tennis and be a terrible mother...

You can still learn by listening to the instructor and watching, it's not a terrible situation.

Tennis is not a game you learn from by watching unless you're watching replays to find where you struggle so you know what to fix. As a result... going to the lesson is a waste of money AND, thanks to the idiot mother, time.

Actually. No. You can learn plays, abd strategy. I agree with the video of yourself, it helps ne a ton. But you can still learn where to place the ball and build up a play then finish the point off

She said you had to go, didn't say you had to actually participate.
