Today, my husband and I were fighting over money. As we were arguing, our 13 year-old daughter stole $250 dollars from my purse. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I learned that my daughter pocketed the money I'd paid so she could go to college. FML
Today, my daughter's idea of a prank was taking all of our money and getting herself arrested. FML
Today, my brat daughter got pissed that I didn't spend "enough" money on her Sweet Sixteen party. She threw a tantrum and told my husband about my affair. FML
Today, I slipped money into my mother's purse after she refused to let me pay for lunch. She caught me in the act and thought I was stealing money from her instead. FML
Today, I enjoyed a lovely family dinner, but my irritating grandma kept trying to buy my purse off me, and kept picking it up to look at it. When I got home I realized all my cash and cigarettes were gone. FML
Today, I found out my mother-in-law sold a precious family heirloom and gambled away the money. FML
Today, I caught my husband's crazy aunt attempting to steal from my daughter's piggy bank. When I confronted her, she tried to defend herself by saying, "She's 2 months-old, she doesn't need the money!" FML
Today, I confiscated my daughter’s tablet, phone and laptop after I caught her exchanging nudes with boys. My ex then called me in a rage, threatening to take me to court over “stealing his belongings” since he purchased them. No concern for our daughter’s behavior, just him wanting the stuff. FML
Today, I was talking to my mom about my issues with my girlfriend. While she was sympathizing, she slowly picked up my wallet, took $100 and left. FML
Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

ohnowhyme123 15
If that was me I'd be dead
hox83_fml 13
yes not good
michaelaranda 28
if that was me, there would be no money in the purse to begin with, my parents are both broke and unemployed
HKCgrimmjow 15
Who carries 250$ in cash??? I'm sorry but you're kind of asking for it in my opinion if you decide to carry that much
Mommy_of_one 2
The OP probably had it to do last minute Christmas shopping.
domolovesyoshi 33
exactly, now this depends on how old the daughter is, if she were my child, she would be getting nothing for christmas, I would return all of her presents to get the $250 back, if they don't add up whatever she bought will be returned
Koravel 10
81, They said 13, and they know it's her, so I assume they took the money back from her and yeah I agree return anything they got her
adrianh1090 12
Yet u got internet.
Mommy_of_one 2
The OP could have written the FML at the library, or one of the millions of places that have free WIFI

I think it's time to show your daughter some oldschool education. I think belting is a good one to start with.

Hey 70, I bet you blame rape on the girls for wearing too little clothing.
SneezyBear 27
Am I the only one who's wondering if the daughter stole the money for selfish purposes or because she was so sick of the fighting that she took the money to try and make a point e.g. "That's enough, no more money for you until you can stop fighting over it."?
SillyGirl4602 23
70, I carry that much cash on me. I bartend and sometimes I don't have time to make it to a bank. Op may have had that money on her to finish her Christmas shopping.

Freedom of Speech protects what you say from the government - not the consequences of your speech.
ahippienamedrae 10
Freedom of speech really only applies to the government.

Great job, maybe your child was using your discussion to make a move on that purse of yours ;)
lilhellian 27
What does a thirteen year old even need money for? Let alone $250.
Dramori 29
Probably to buy designer clothes and make up so she can go on the pull... Darn kids grow up too fast these days.
whiskeey 14
Maybe she stole it to buy her mother a spa treatment!
StzaCrack666 18
drugs
miianah1 22
Were you one of those kids who sat on the internet all day? Money can be used for movies, bowling, games, pizza, etc. I don't agree with OP's thief of a child, but asking what a teenager needs money for is ignorant.
Nickb55 16
Where did she learn that from I wonder?
TunaFireStarter 16
I hope you punished her appropriately! No respect.
jazzy_123 20
Yes I really hope so too. People think it's no big deal when their child steals a couple of bucks but it's a big deal. I know someone who used ti steal change from his parents and siblings, and his parents never did anything about it thinking he'd grow out of it. Well years later he went from stealing change, to taking their credit cards, to stealing their jewelry and tools. So please OP do something about it or it will come back and bite you in the ass.

Whenever I punish my kids, I'm going to do it Matilda-style and lock them in the chokey.
SneezyBear 27
#56 You know those toy cars/horses that you ride in as kid at shopping centres? They used to be only 20 cents when I was a kid, and I was obsessed with them. Whenever my parents dropped their wallet/money, I used to always take the twenty cent coins and ignore the $20 and $50 notes. Still have my dumb moments now, but I think I turned out ok otherwise? XD
jazzy_123 20
haha I loved those but they were a quarter when I was a kid. I should have been more specific. He would go to his sisters box full of quarters and coins worth a bit more and take a handful of them. So it'd probably add up to a couple bucks, which still isn't a lot. but his parents should have disciplined him..Obviously not everyone is the same. So good for you 141! :)

At least you've found the source of part of your issues, if not the whole issue.
