Today, I realized why my water bill has gone down so much. My 16 year old daughter now only feels it necessary to shower whenever her boyfriend is going to come over. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I confronted my 18-year-old daughter about her excessively lengthy showers. She said she didn't see the big deal, considering the water "comes free with the house." No dear, it doesn't. FML
Today, I've found that the water bill has been much lower than usual as of late. I then realized that this is because I'm so depressed and hardly get out at all, that I've stopped showering or even taking care of myself in general. Who do I have to impress, anyway? FML
Today, my boyfriend pointed out that the water bill is getting kind of high. I suggested that we shower together to save water. He said he'd rather deal with the high water bill. FML
Today, my 17 year-old reacted with shock and horror when she learned that a single utility bill can amount to more than 200 dollars. FML
Today, I was complaining to my boyfriend about our excessive water bill. He then says, "Don't look at me, I don't even shower." FML
Today, my daughter spent three hours crying and having a temper tantrum over being forced to have a bath after four days without one. My daughter is 16. FML
Today, my mother told me to take a quick shower. When I got out, she told me I took too long, and now I have to pay the utilities bill. My shower was two minutes long. FML
Today, my mom revoked my shower privileges for a week, all because I'm “using too much water.” I'm the kind of person who will smell like garbage after one skipped shower. FML
Today, my roommate decided to go on a group trip instead of paying our water bill. Now I can't shower until next week. FML
Today, my 14 year-old daughter threw a massive fit over showering. She dislodged the shower curtain rod and threatened to beat us with it if we ever force her to shower again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Try a scare tactic and ask her what's going to happen if her boyfriend comes over to surprise her. I bet that'll put her on a regular shower schedule.

I hope he feels special. ._.

ryan4723 24
I would assume he doesn't know

Make a deal with her boyfriend and make him come over every other day. Problem solved.

Doesn't matter free money to the dad lol
hendix 17
Just subtly mention it to him, that'll put a stop to it one way or another!
fml1365 30
He doesn't know
DenBriZel 31
I'm assuming that the boyfriend doesn't know, and the daughter is too lazy to shower so she only does when he comes over so she smells most fresh right before they sex it up. However, IF they ARE sexing it up, she probably should be showering AFTER since it's a workout and she probably doesn't smell too wonderful afterwards..

Maybe she wants to bask in the post-sex musk for as long as possible, but doesn't want him to find her gross for doing so. Or maybe she's like Patrick from spongebob and really loves her grime, but loves her boyfriend slightly more. There's so many possibilities, really, but all are pretty nasty.

Thank her for not spending any

That's just straight up laziness. I feel sorry for her bf
DefiningDivine 13
It's just, so romantic. "You're the only reason I shower."
guiltnazan 23
Sounds like a stinky situation...

What if she decides to take 5 showers a day :o
Rosebudx 32
Explain that her skin and hair would quickly dry out so badly that bottles and bottles of lotion and hair moisturizing hair serum wouldn't help.
Ubehage 32
Or better yet, invite him over as a surprise. Don't just let her think about it - make her feel it.

At least you're saving money. I'm pretty sure since its summer half of the teens in the world are doing the same thing.
Miss_Klutzie 28
I can honestly say I shower once a day. And depending how hot/humid, twice ._.
LittleGreenPaola 23
"since it's summer"? Showers should be intensified in summer!
lemon_phat 11
It usually gets hotter in the summer... why would people shower less...?
Ctrl_H 18
Well I guess I was the weird kid then... This explains so much...
slooby_fml 25
He did say half the teens. So that must mean you guys are in the other half. I shower every day, but I don't think my sister does. Also, I feel like it's more common for boys to stop showering regularly during the summer than it is for girls

I personally shower much less in the summer. Mostly because I'm swimming in the lake pretty much every day.
cyanidesandwich 21
As a teen myself, I do tend to shower less during the summer because I'm not seeing anyone I know outside of my immediate family, so what does it matter if I don't shower?
awkwardlysmiles 12
Ugh, have I been doing it wrong all this time? I usually shower twice a day.
mcaisse77 17
I shower like every two days. I have no reason to even get dressed in the summer usually, since I live in the middle of nowhere and can't drive. I guess I'm just weird. And lazier than I thought...
NoMore_CoolNames 14
I guess I was also the weird kid who didn't shower during the summer unless something was happening.
beclaurela 18
I am a teen and I have to say this is fact. ._. The laziness level jump 400% when summer began.

#45, You don't shower after swimming in the lake? You do know fish **** in that water.
geko911 22
I shower after swimming in a lake, mostly because a few people still drop their shit in it. I usually won't shower however if I spend my day in a chlorinated pool. Still I'll shower the next day even if I spent that day in the pool too..
JacobH34 10
Well I'd say it's better than the alternative, a bit much perhaps but better than never showering for him!
JacobH34 10
*realizes he completely misread the FML...facepalms self repeatedly*
itsmecutiepie 17
Well, how often does he come over? If he does so every (other) day I don't see the problem.
lemon_phat 11
think it's safe to assume its not that frequent If their water bill has dropped so noticeably.

Sometimes I just lose faith in my generation.
xLIGHTS_fml 23
There's people like that in every generation. God, I'm tired of seeing these type of comments all the time lol. Or "faith in humanity restored."
tiernang 21
^ that would be ifunny, not fml.
chelseaaababyyy 17
Although this isn't a reason to lose faith in a generation, I still think this generation is one of the shittiest. I look at the 11 year olds in their booty shorts and crop tops, talking like they haven't got a brain in their head, and I just stop and think, 'THIS is our future.'
rocker_chick105 31
42- if you think this generation sucks blame the generation that brought them up. Every generation has problems.
Zomg_Okay 27
42 - Most of them will grow out of it and the ones that don't will amount to nothing. We'll be fine.

#57 has a point. Maybe it wouldn't make a difference with every kid, but it would with many.
BrotherPhil 35
Go back 300 400 years, and they were probably just the same - or at least the equivalent for the time, showing off their ankles or something. Only difference was that they were getting ready to get married, rather than getting ready to try to have underage sex.
tiernang 21
threaten to tell her boyfriend.
