Today, my mom insisted on making my lunch. She didn't know that knives are banned at my high school, and packed me a steak knife for cream cheese. I'm now suspended for 7 days, and she refuses to say that she did anything wrong. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my school caught a kid with a firearm, so during our lunch period we had to stay in our classrooms and nobody can leave and nobody can get food. FML
Today, after it appeared my daughter was throwing away any vegetables in her school lunch, I packed her all vegetables so she would have to eat at least one. Nope! She threw them out and complained to school that "mommy doesn't feed" her. I got a call from the school. FML
Today, I went to school wearing the same jacket I had gone hiking in the previous day. When I found out that I had left my 2" pocket knife in the pocket I immediately turned it in to the front office. They promptly had me arrested for bringing a weapon on campus. FML
Today, I was suspended from school for “being involved in a fight.” The other girl beat me up while I didn't do anything to defend myself, for fear of getting in trouble. She got off scot free. FML
Today, my mom tried to ground me. In the apartment that I own. Because I didn't eat enough of the dinner that I'd made. FML
Today, I was curious as to whether or not my mom was off of her medication. When I asked her, she pulled a knife on me. Looks like I got my answer. FML
Today, I was expelled from school. By my own mother. FML
Today, I went to my favorite restaurant with my mother. The food took a little longer than usual to arrive and my mom threw a fit, complete with kicking and screaming, in the middle of the restaurant. My mom and I are both banned for life. FML
Today, I got suspended for bringing a "hazardous weapon" to school. They were earrings. FML
Today, I tried to make a grilled cheese sandwich for myself, but as soon as I started, my mom rushed into the kitchen and criticized me for making it "wrong". She then made the sandwich for me. It tasted significantly worse than when I make them. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Gosh, why didn't she just pack a plastic knife or something :/. Maybe just a spoon... FYL, OP!

the school has some seriously messed up rules! no allowed to bring a knife? sad sad sad!

So you'd rather schools allow bringing weapons to school? It might just be a steak knife but it can do some serious damage to a person if someone got mad and started slicing people. Rules are set to protect the kids.

rules are set to protect kids, sure but dont overshoot that crap. use common sense! why on earth would soneone get mad and start slicing people??? i have a knife on me all the time and you know what: i never "sliced" anyone! i have been mad plenty of times though. had the occasionsl fight even but never once did i consider "slicing" anyone. the kid that wants to hurt someone will do so, and you will find a pencil or some scissors can do plenty damage

But, if YOU knew that the knife was bad, why would you even remove it from the bag/sack/container? Wouldn't the more intelligent option be to leave it in secret rather than wave it around? (Im aware he didn't actually wave it around)

The only thing I can figure is that OP is either really dumb or has to go through a metal detector to get inside. I'm really hoping it's the second one.

#67, I'm presuming one of the other kids saw it and reported it.

Since it is her fault she should take the wrap like a good parent. I don't understand why she couldn't send a butter knife instead but whatever. What's done is done and op shouldn't get in so much trouble for something like this.

A steak knife.. For cream cheese..

Not sure about elsewhere, but when I was in school, knives of any kind were not allowed (except plastic utensils), nor could you bring a water gun to school. How would your mom not know this?Assuming you are in high school, she should know your school districts policies for things like that.

If she didn't know then it wasn't her fault. She was trying to do something nice, give her a break!

i didn't know if I shoved that person they would lose their grip fall down the stairs and would have to pass in a bag the rest of their awful life. oh well not my fault Tra la la. or to put it another way ignorance is not a defence.

#85 that's completely different and you know it. She didn't push him down the stairs. She packed his lunch for him. If it's that much of a problem, he should do it himself instead of bitch about it.
