Today, my daughter was unable to take the SAT. They wouldn’t let her in, because, “no one told her she would need two forms of ID.” To be fair, she would have gotten a terrible score anyway, if she’s really that dumb. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to slowly explain to my daughter why her Facebook profile isn't a valid piece of ID. FML
Today, I took my 16 year-old daughter to get a bank account, taking her birth certificate with us as requested. When the teller wrote her name down on a piece of paper, my daughter said, "How do you know my name?" The teller just looked at her and held up her birth certificate. I raised a nitwit. FML
Today, my daughter admitted why her grades, which are usually straight A's, have been slipping the past few weeks. Turns out she has been deliberately failing tests to avoid becoming valedictorian, so she won't have to deliver a speech at graduation. FML
Today, my wife refuses to admit our 13-year-old son has no chance in hell of getting into college. He never got more than an E or an F on his exams, routinely misspells his own name, can't remember our address and I just watched him spend 10 minutes looking for his lost hat which, by the way, was on his head. FML
Today, my daughter must be punishing me for something. She's dating a boy who dropped out of high school to “escape the system” and yet loves collecting unemployment benefits, and refuses to read books because he hates not knowing what the characters really look like. FML
Today, my daughter, whom I consigned a credit card for, told me she was in a bit of financial trouble. It turns out that she was trying to pay off her credit card with the same credit card her bill was for, and couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. FML
Today, I had to explain to my 18-year-old daughter why she can't pull a duck face pose for her driver's license. She still doesn't believe me. FML
Today, without trying, I convinced my 24 year-old daughter that Stop signs with a white border around it were optional. Her car is now totaled and she’s in the emergency room with whiplash. I didn’t think she’d be that gullible. FML
Today, my 9-year-old daughter was acting out and wouldn't do her homework. I told her that if she didn't study, she wouldn't get her acceptance letter from Hogwarts. She looked into my eyes, straight through to my soul and said, "Hogwarts isn't real, retard." FML
Today, I learned that my daughter pocketed the money I'd paid so she could go to college. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Seriously sir, maybe educate your child and put her in a better state of mind and environment where she can pass the SAT. If you can't do that, then your holes in parenting are showing which already shows due to your last statement. **** her life most of all.

It's clearly written in the instructions that you need two forms of ID to take the test! It's a good thing you don't need to know how to read to do well on the SAT... No,...wait...

You don't know how old she is. Might be 25 for all we know. And even if she's 16, that's an age where you need to start taking responsibility for some things yourself, such as reading the instructions. And you're totally allowed to call it dumb when someone is acting dumb. No need to sugarcoat every ****-up.

If she's old enough to take the SAT, calling her a "child" is becoming a bit of a stretch. Of course she should have read the instructions herself. Didn't you? My parents were not involved in any SAT prep, nor should they have been.

**** her life for having a toxic dad who doesn't respect her. I hope she goes no contact from you someday.

If you need 2 forms of ID then what about the students who don’t have a second form of ID such as a passport, a social security card, a CostCo card, a YMCA card, a school ID, because they’re not able to work due to parental restrictions, because a parent is being controlling and abusive and hid all of their ID’s, are just too poor to have that second form of ID, can’t afford to get any ID’s or because they’re in a domestic abuse, or a controlling parent situation?

if you know she's a bit lacking in the common sense department, you could have helped her a bit here and there. HELL.. Einstein couldn't balance his checkbook, maybe she would have passed.

I'm sure Einstein could balance his checkbook if he really wanted to, but he had other things to focus on. I would not be surprised if he got a mediocre or worse score on the verbal section.

As someone not from USA – why do you need two forms of ID?

Wow, way to be an optimist, supportive parent. Did YOU remind her that she'd need two forms of ID? No? Guess that makes you dumb, too, then. Seriously, if no one informed her, how is she supposed to know? Usually you only need one form of ID, especially for something like this. Why would you need two to take a freaking test?
