Today, I discovered the reason my 12-year-old brother has been anxious and afraid of cops for the last 6 months. My crazy mother convinced him that porn is illegal and comes with a death penalty. She did the same thing to me when I was his age. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that while I was at college, my brother downloaded three terabytes of porn on my laptop and blamed it on me. My parents believed him. FML
Today, I decided to go through my younger brother's browser history. I found out he goes regularly on PornHub. He's only 10. FML
Today, I came home to my frantic mom boxing up all the family electronics. She'd heard about the Roblox lawsuit and is now convinced that every inch of the internet is crawling with pedophiles. Now my two little brothers are throwing earsplitting tantrums and I have no way to drown them out. FML
Today, my brother's recent creepy behavior suddenly made sense when I found "How to seduce your sister?" in his browser search history. FML
Today, my eight year-old son came to me and said he thinks it's time he started wearing bras. It turns out his older brother has been mindfucking him for the past several months and has him convinced it's something all boys his age do. I can't convince him otherwise. FML
Today, I found my son's porn. I would sit him down for a talk, but the genres were so disturbing that I'm afraid to even ask about it. FML
Today, I woke up to my wife yelling at my 11-year-old because she found porn on the laptop. Now I have to come clean and tell her it was me so I can get him off the hook. FML
Today, my mom kicked my dad out of the house and told him not to come home again. Why? I started watching some porn on my computer, forgetting I was still connected to the bluetooth speakers in the living room. My mom thought it was my dad, and I didn't have the balls to admit the truth. FML
Today, I found out that my mom gives my brother tips on how to hurt my feelings the most. FML
Today, my older brother managed to convince my younger sister that she's actually a boy, and that she'll soon be getting a penis in the mail, which she excitedly told everyone she could. He convinced me of the exact same thing as well several years ago. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Poor parenting

I would just explain to your brother that's not the case. No reason he should be terrified of a natural curiosity that a large majority of people have also been curious about.

Bad idea kids going to be kids no matter what you tell them

Your mom is really awful. There are better ways to try to discourage your underage kids from looking at **** than scaring them to death. BTW, you might want to let your brother know that your mom pulled this ish on you when you were a kid.

This is more like a "**** His Life"

Yeah I'd tell your brother your mom pulled this on you as well as you're not going to get in trouble. Maybe with mom but not the law lol. Make sure you also tell him you don't care what he's doing as its normal but tell him what certain **** will get him in trouble and to stay far away from it.

wow, is that not a form of really bad parenting or even 'abuse' ( not sure if the term applies but I think that telling your child terrifying lies like that deliberately about something very natural and normal is emotionally scarring and damaging.
