Today, I realized I can't wait until my daughter moves out the house when she is 18. She's eight. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out my mom can't wait until I turn 18, so she can kick me out and turn my room into a huge closet for all her clothes. FML
Today, my mom told me she can't wait for me to turn eighteen so she can turn my room into a place for her to display all her antique glass dolls. FML
Today, I realized my daughter has been in longer relationships than I have. FML
Today, I'm moving out of the house. My little sister can't wait and I've never seen my dad so happy. FML
Today, I realized that my 14 year-old runs my home. She has her own room, while her 11 year-old sister and I (her mother) share a room. I literally have to get her permission to go anywhere as well. FML
Today, at age eighteen, I finished moving out of my parents' house and into my own. The only person to even remotely give a shit was my sister, and that was only because I was taking the cat with me. FML
Today, I was forced to sit silently through my 20-year-old daughter's wedding to a man who is 8 years older than I am. FML
Today, and for the last few months, I finally have enough money to be able to move into my own place. I can finally have girls over. I am also at the age of 26, where most girls stop wanting to go over to a guy's house. I wish I was 18 again, when independence is seen as new and sexy. FML
Today, our youngest child finally moved out of our house. I went to embrace my wife and say something romantic about us growing old together, but she said, "Thank God they're gone, I can finally leave you." An hour later, she was gone too. FML
Today, my niece told me to go and find my own friends. She's 2, and I'm 18. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Calm down, she's just 8. Once she does move out you'll probably wish she was back. Let's hope she doesn't see her about this FML when she IS 18.

Cherish the moments you have with her when she gets older she could want nothing to do with you

You. Suck. That was my first thought when I read this. Then I thought about it more...yeah, you still suck. My daughter is about the same age, and I want nothing more than for her to stay with me forever.

My daughter is still a toddler, but I agree. I can't imagine life without her. My only looking forward to her growing up is being a part of it and getting to enjoy things I see my parents enjoying with me.

You say that now, but when she moves out, you will miss her, OP. I'm sure whatever she's doing is just a phase anyway. Patients is always the key.

I'm 18 and haven't moved out yet. Sorry, but just because someone turns 18, it doesn't mean they will move out on the very first day. I don't know why people think that way.

It's so sad that you feel that way. I'm bracing for the day when my daughter leaves and I think I will be falling into a depression then. And my D-Day is much closer than yours.

Well, I suggest you plan to do a damn good job parenting for the next ten years to make sure she's as self reliant and independent as possible, otherwise you're going to be stuck with her forever! I left home when I was 21 and to this day, if I wanted to move back home, my parents would accept me with open arms. It's kinda sad you raised a child you can't stand to be around.

You'll miss her when she's gone OP. My mom spent the better part of my life telling me she couldn't wait to have us kids moved out so she can have some time to herself. Now that we're gone she's always bored and not knowing what to do. My dad works a lot so that doesn't help matters. She's lonely.
