A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I just got my first period. My mother has been dead for years and my stepmother genuinely wishes I was dead, so who am I supposed to tell? FML

Today, I got a birthday card from my parents. It was my sister's from earlier in the year. They scratched out her name and wrote mine underneath. FML

Today, my daughter got her first period. I'm the one shaking and hyperventilating. I'm more nervous for her than I was for myself back when I got my first period. I just now understand my mom while she was pacing through house back and forward when I got my first. FML

Today, my mum, who always wanted more kids than just me, started crying because I'm not pregnant with her first grandchild yet. I'm 16, and this all started because I got my period and I asked to borrow one of her tampons because I'd ran out of my own. FML

Oh, God, your life SUCKS. My dad wouldn't even want to KNOW I started my period. :) He'll just have my mom take care of it. :)

Okay Freud, I don't think it's something to be embarrassed about, but young girls generally don't like to discuss their ****** secretions with their male family members.

... What? You think just because someone desires some privacy, they're ashamed of their vaginas and are sexually repressed? Yeah it is natural, but you know what else is? ********. But do we talk about our shit? Do you say "Yeah, today, I took a shit. Was pretty big, wet, and brown"? No... lol That doesn't mean we're ashamed to shit or our ass, we just understand that's a private thing, like periods. When it's something private brought to the open, yeah, it's embarassing. Kind of like... when you fall in love with someone, and admit it to someone else first (for advice or comfort or whatever). You're embarassed, even though you have no reason to be, because that's a private thing. Plus, it was her DAD... lol... I mean, it's nice she knows she can count on him for emergency runs, but a period's a chick thing. Wonder how many dads celebrate first ejaculations.... lol cream parties... pearls for remembrance... lmfao

Just curious... but how did your dad know? My dad probably has no idea when I started my period.

Her mom probably told her dad.

When I got mine my whole family was told. I think it was a sweet gesture. Your growing up be happy about it and tell your dad thanks for the thought.

Wow your life sucks!!! Seriously? It would be one thing if he let all of your friends know, but it;s your family! How the hell is this an FML?
