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?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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

If you feel that way you shouldn't have kids. You're probably a bad parent to have such hate for a child, remember your child is a reflection of you.

You're probably childless and alone. See? I can make dumb assumptions too!

who10nanny, regardless of whether or not wickedcharm has children, she's right. Children are partially a product of their environment. But given how often you point out that you're a mother, you should know that, hm?

Why in gods name did you have kids if you look forward to kicking them out?

When you first have kids it seems like a great idea. After two decades of whining, fighting and teenage girl drama, it will wear on you. It's like an old soldier looking forward to retirement, proud of what they have achieved and wishing the best for the future, but worn out and ready to step aside for another to take their place.

Not everybody raises their kids to whine, fight and be dramatic.. That's just lazy parenting

Seriously?? She's 8. Kids can be pains. They grow out of their annoying habits, you can't judge them on how annoying they will be throughout life when they are only 8. It's normal to be annoyed by your child, not really a FML :(

If that is really how you see your kid, then please consider seeking profesional help. It is not normal to feel that way all the time and if you ever loved your child then get HER help. If you felt just frustratred and needed to vent then yoiu might consider a less public outlet for the next time.

If you feel that way now, wait until she's 13. I hope this is a momentry thing and you are just venting. Otherwise its not an FYL its an F your daughter's life. How horrible it would be to grow up in a home where you are not loved and wanted.

look on the bright side - it's only one more year and you're half through your odysee. but let's be honest - once she hits puberty you'll be happy about every night she stays home and not with some shady boyfriend ;)
