Today, I was told my eldest grandson doesn't want me at his birthday party, nor does he want my gift. It would seem he and his younger brother still haven't forgiven me for my prank on Easter, when I tricked them into thinking I was taking them to the 'Big Neighborhood Egg Hunt', when really we were going to church.

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I mustered up the courage to tell my son that I would not be attending his sixth wedding. He responded by cutting access to my grandson. FML
Today, my grandfather scolded me for not wanting to go to my 12-year-old cousin's basketball game. This is the same grandfather that refused to go to my high school graduation. FML
Today, my brother mentioned my dad's birthday party. I said, "What party?" He said, "Shit, forgot I wasn't supposed to tell you." My own father doesn't want me at his party. FML
Today, I was uninvited from my own birthday party. FML
Today, I ran into a guy I haven't seen since high school. He started ranting about what an asshole I was for not inviting him to my birthday party when I was 12. We're 50 now, the party was cancelled because my granddad died, and we were not friends anyway, I just hung out with him as I felt sorry for him sometimes. FML
Today, my aunts found grandpa's will, which left everything to me and nothing to them, and his lawyer confirmed on the phone this was definitely grandpa's wish. My entire family now hate me and think I manipulated him. My grandpa has hated me my entire life, so I think this is his way of punishing me. FML
Today, after I found out my uncle took me off my grandma's funeral program, I had to fight to speak. He spent the week taking out his jealousy and anger on me and my sister for being included in her funeral. To everyone else he's played the saint, and the whole family has no idea. FML
Today, I went to the graveyard with my little brother to visit my grandfather's grave. While we were there, my brother suddenly asked me, "Can you die now? I hate you." He's 7 years-old. FML
Today, my family and friends threw a surprise birthday party for me, after I'd said multiple times that I didn't want one. I turned and left and now everybody is angry at me and calling me ungrateful and spoiled. FML
Today, my now ex-boyfriend accused me of wanting to screw his 11-year-old brother, all because I expressed interest in going to his birthday party. FML

That’s not a “prank” it’s dishonest which is the opposite of what they are supposed to be teaching in that church.

nor should you be forgiven. it wasn't a prank. you not only lied (which is a sin) but you had them all excited for an activity and then let them down. YDI yourself. if I was their parent it would be the last time you took them anywhere

Very Christian of you, so much for religious indoctrination.

yeah i wouldn't trust you anymore either. that wasn't remotely a prank at all. you have work to do and it doesn't involve dragging them to church

Wow. People get real serious about church on FML the comments are so harsh. I found it extremely funny. They are kids so they will get over it as Grandma it's your job to load them up on sugar and give them tv and video games. let the parents be concerned with religion. My mother has brought the kids to church a couple of times but they asked to go because she loads them up with candy beforehand and hanging out with Grandma means special attention.

I'm sure the "gift" was eternal damnation in hellfire. What kid wants that?

Typical modern Christian bullshit... Lie to everyone so that they have to do what you want, then piss and moan when they push you away after realizing you lied. On top of forcing your beliefs onto people, in this case little kids who most likely have zero interest in listening to adults talk about nonsense for hours while trapped indoors. They'll forgive you in time, because you're family, but you'll need to stop forcing religion down their throats and leave it to them to decide whether or not they choose to believe.

Make your own Easter Egg Hunt, dress up like a bunny and have money and candy hidden inside plastic eggs next to actual eggs and hopefully you learned your lesson. My dad when he messed up horribly one Easter had $100.00 bills in the purple eggs and had two purple eggs per child hidden. We had to split the high bills.

It's horrible to lie to children and get them excited about something that isn't going to happen. You could have told them you were taking them to church, and then after church taken them to do something they would have been excited for. I hope your stupid "prank" doesn't keep them from Jesus for life. And I hope they somehow learn about forgiveness and can forgive you for doing something really mean to them.
