Today, after waiting for years for my oldest daughter to grow out of Twilight, my younger daughter discovered it. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my tween daughter found an exciting new book series to replace her two-year obsession with Harry Potter. Hello, Team Jacob. FML
Today, I realized my daughter has been in longer relationships than I have. FML
Today, I walked in on my daughter hugging and sobbing into her Edward Cullen cut-out. She won't tell me what's wrong, yet she can confide in a creepy fictional stalker whose facial expression is locked to "chronically constipated". Where did I go wrong? FML
Today, I realized the reason my 20-year-old daughter has been so moody and aggressive is because she missed the promotional My Little Pony toys at McDonald's. FML
Today, my husband and our 4-year-old daughter were watching My Little Pony. When her favorite character angrily screamed, "You're going to love me!", she looked at him with a perplexed look. My husband then responded, "And THAT'S how I met your mommy!" FML
Today, my 15-year-old son begged me to pre-order the next season of My Little Pony. FML
Today, my wife showed me what was missing in our marriage with a Twilight video montage. FML
Today, my 12-year-old daughter was suspended from school for doing a book report on 50 Shades of Grey. FML
Today, my eldest daughter announced she was getting divorced. She never even told me she was married. FML
Today, I came home and caught my husband in a compromising position. He was watching Twilight. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hopefully, your oldest daughter will not discover Fifty Shades of Grey now...

Get them obsessed with Harry Potter and the hell you live in will be over.

Hey there is nothing wrong with Twilight, the books are a 1000x better than the movies granted but solid story regardless.

Give the kid some better prose. The Dresden Files if the genre of paranormal is important, Mercedes Lackey's Elemental Masters books if female lead with romance is desired. Carmilla for vampires. Kushiel's Dart if she's seeking erotica with BDSM (yes I know that's the fanfic, I'm anticipating the related bad choices) Tamora Pierce, Holly Black, there are tons of writers out there who are much better. Find an anthology of urban fantasy. Don't just sit back and let people eat sawdust when there's a buffet standing by.

Make her read the books. Tbh I loved the books. They were pretty good teen fiction and I went through all of them within 5 days. Tell her only then can she watch the movies and be crazy obsessed. Trust me, once she reads the books she won't be so enthralled by the movies. It actually surprises me that more parents don't do this with their kids: only when you've read the book can you see the movie. It promotes literacy and keeps them from becoming zombie fans because the movies are rarely better than the books.

What's wrong with that, exactly?

They're young girls. What do you expect? YDI for being judgmental. Seriously, there is nothing wrong with Twilight. She could be reading 50 Shades of Grey, which wouldn't be appropriate for her age...

Get them into Harry Potter or The Divergent Trilogy, the Twilight craze(or whatever you would like to call it) will go away(most likely).
