Today, I corrected my mom in front of our family while she was ragging on my 12 year old cousin who got a piercing. She said, "You don't understand you don't have kids, but on the other hand you probably never will!" I have Polycystic ovary syndrome, she is right, I probably never will. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Support system
Today, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and confided in my mom, after being told I would have trouble having kids. Five minutes later, I hear the whole family laughing about it downstairs. FML
Today, in front of the entire family, I yelled at my mom and told her she wasn't a good parent. She responded with, "Well, at least I had friends when I was your age." FML
Today, my mother accused me of getting another lip piercing done on the sly to spite her. She finally realised I have more than one and won't believe I've always had two. Thanks for noticing, mom. FML
Devil parents
Today, my mother-in-law said: "People who don't have kids are children of the devil." I'm infertile, she knows this. FML
Revelations
Today, I told my mom I was thinking of having a baby. She told me it was a huge mistake because children cost a fortune, make you miserable, and if she'd had her chance again she would have gotten her tubes tied when she was 18 and saved herself the grief. Gee, thanks mom. FML
Today, I asked my mum why she never had any children after me. She scoffed and asked if I've looked in a mirror lately. FML
Sensitive
Today, my mom had to go off on my grandmother because I don’t have kids yet and she, "wants great grand babies before she dies." My grandmother was going to gift me a baby outfit for me to get another hint. I’m 25 and can’t conceive because of health issues. I may never have my own kids. She knows. FML
Under pressure
Today, my mom asked me out of the blue if I was ever going to consider getting married. It wasn't until after the conversation ended that I remembered my siblings are all either single like I am, or incapable of having children. I am my mother's last hope of becoming a grandma, and she reminds me all the time. FML
Supportive
Today, once again, my mom ranted about how she sacrificed so much for me by moving to a better city. I said it was for my education and to stop making me feel like a burden. She scoffed, "Right, you never should've been born. My mistake." FML
Vessels
Today, my mom bitched me out for still being single at age 19, and still not having started a family. She considers this "immoral," yet showed nothing but praise for my sister, who's pregnant at 15 and doesn't know which of three guys is the father. FML

I know a woman who has serious problems with PCOS, but she's 15 weeks pregnant. There's hope. :)

You don't deserve this. You were asking for it, criticizing your mother who you would know by now is a bitch, but anyone who publicly scolds someone for publicly criticizing them is a hypocrite. I am a call-em like I see em kind of guy, and don't sugar coat things for my children, but even I think that was overly harsh. Also, to the person who had the tangent about children not being property, under US law children are defined as being the property of their parents or guardians. I am not saying it is right, just that that is how it is. Having someone responsible for you is very similar to being in prison, and you are/can be deprived of some of your most basic human rights i.e. privacy or free will. To the poster who rants and raves about adoption, I hope you are running a god-damned foster care or else STFU!!!

What a bitch of a mother, even if she was pissed off she shouldnt say stuff like that. And another your mom isnt the parent of your cousin. Like mind your own business!

When people get mad, they often say things they don't mean. It just kinda pops out. I don't know your mother, obviously, but I'm willing to bet she apologized for the slight later on, even if she's a bitch she must know this is a sensitive subject for you. Moral of the story for you: Don't incite people when they're already mad, unless absolutely necessary...

Your life is ******. I'm really sorry about your condition, I would hate it. I hope it won't stop you in the future from having children if that's what you wish to do. All the best! xx

PCOS is the new "I'm not fat, it's my glands!" excuse for fat girls to gobble down 50,000 cal with and between every meal.

Well, technically isn't "Polycystic" a compound word, and therefore, one word? Wouldn't that make the acronym... POS ? (snicker)
