Today, after having bought my daughter a complete set of new school clothes, she threw a tantrum and refused to wear them. I told her she could either wear them, or go to school naked. She made if half-way down the street in the nude before I caught up and dragged her back inside. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my 6-year-old daughter threw a tantrum in the middle of a store, all because I wouldn't buy her a pushup bra. FML
Today, I went clothes shopping. I took my little daughter into the dressing room while I tried some clothes on. She somehow managed to open the door while I was changing. A lady outside then bitched me out for "exposing" myself to her kids. FML
Today, my mother had a full-on hissy fit because of the clothes I was wearing. Not because she thought they were inappropriate, but because I was "stealing her look." FML
Today, the cops were called to my apartment because my daughter had a temper tantrum while I was at work. She was naked when they were there. FML
Today, the bus came to pick up my daughter to take her to kindergarten. When it honked, I opened the door for her to let her run out to it. Halfway there, she tripped and started crying. I couldn't run out because I was still in my underwear. Now her bus thinks I'm the worst mom ever. FML
Today, my mother threatened me if I keep wearing yoga pants to school, she's going to have my dad pick me up in a speedo. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me for going through her closet for some warmer clothes. She had a rant about taking her clothes without her permission, all while wearing a pair of my boots and one of my sweaters. 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 learned from my daughter's teacher that she has been wearing the same shirt for the past few weeks, ever since we had a fight about how I don't pay attention to her. FML
Today, I got into a huge fight with a girl at school. My mom and dad decided to punish me by letting my three older brothers pick out my wardrobe for the next week. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for a massive parenting fail in your word choice. The moral victory's hers.

One thing I don't think most commenters have picked up on or know is that in the UK, where the OP is from, the vast majority of schools have a uniform, not free choice on what to wear. So everyone saying the OP shouldn't have chosen the clothes, the child didn't have a choice what to wear.

next time take her with you. I remember my dad use to pick clothes out for me that I didn't like and I complained about it, so he just start taking me with him when he shopped for me.

The fml said the mother bought a set of school clothes, that leads me to believe the school has a uniform requirement, therefore the mother has the right to buy those clothes and the daughter is a spoiled brat, even if she is over 18. If the school/college has a uniform then she has to wear it.

Op is a UK poster so would have been mandatory school uniform she was buying for her daughter. No choice about it!

Seriously?! Nobody bothered to look at where the FML was from? In the UK schools have a uniform, you have no choice what to wear, so you can't go hating on the mother for not being considerate of her child. School uniforms are expensive and if you don't wear them you can get sent home. If you break the uniform rule a number of times you can be excluded.

I can't believe she would do that! Everyone has to wear school uniform, she would have looked incredibly stupid standing naked around a bunch of people wearing school uniform.

Why wouldn't she be going to School in a Uniform ? I don't know of any Schools in Wokingham or Berkshire that don't have uniform. Unless she is in sixth form or college?!

To the people who are bringing up that the poster is from the UK, not all of us can see location. I use the mobile edition and I can't see it unless I click on the name. I'm too lazy to do that every time. Think before you post.

Equally, you could say the same about the people who are going on about it as though it's not a uniform. They should think before they post because more than one country has school uniforms.
