Today, I told my father I registered for the Marines, and that I'm leaving for bootcamp next week. He asked if this means that he doesn't have to pay child support anymore. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after a fight with my parents, I told them I was running away. They said, "Good. Now we have less to pay in child support." FML
Today, my mom and dad went to court to negotiate child support for me and my brothers. During the meeting, my dad was asked, "Sir, are you saying that the only reason you want your sons to live with you full time is so you don't have to pay child support?" To which he responded, "Yes." FML
Today, I realized that when my dad said he would pay for my college, he really meant that he was going to forge my signature on a student loan in my name and not make payments on it. FML
Today, I discovered that I don't have a college fund. My mother stole the money when she divorced my dad and he never bothered to tell me. Now he's offered to pay my tuition if I go to a military academy. If I don't take the offer, he wants me to move out by next Friday. FML
Today, I told my dad I was going to the gym. He stood up and clapped. FML
Today, my dad asked to borrow some money off me, so I said okay. Later on, he told me he'll be using it to help divorce my mom. I pretty much just helped pay for my parents' divorce. FML
Today, my father got married. He left me a voicemail to tell me all about it. FML
Today, my mom cleaned out my bank account, saying my "no-good dad" owes her child support and that she'll get it one way or another. FML
Today, my dad had something to tell me. He'd cleaned out my bank account to pay off 38,000 dollars worth of gambling debt. My wedding is in 5 months. FML
Today, I finally got the nerve to tell my parents that I'm no longer going to pay them a flat percent of my salary, but only what they need to cover my expenses. Their response: "Better find a place of your own then, you freeloading bastard." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I would say that's not an fml as the marines will make a man out of you, but seeing as how it's the French, they'll probably just teach you how to raise both arms.

Depends on the state where the child support agreements were made. In Colorado a parent can be made to pay up until age 26. Of course, the child can, at age 18 anywhere, put a stop to it. But some do not because free money > love and family.
rileykins 0
26?! that's crazy talk. but hey, good for the child who's gettin the support. :]

I agree w/ 2. seems like a legitimate question 2 me. ur mom doesn't need $ 2 support u if ur not there so why keep paying the bitch?

You can enlist in the Marines at g age 16 (I think).
saint_jimmy 0
17 is the youngest to enter into the Delayed Entry Program, where technically you've already signed up but you don't go to basic training until your 18th birthday. To enlist at 17 you need parental consent.
ianzzz 0
no 17 is the youngest but your parents have to let u go and sign papers

Why don't you shut your mouth, 72, and pay a little respect for some one that's serving our country?

I served as a Marine. If you don't like a course of action, either be part of the solution or quit your bitching. It doesn't help anyone and it only makes you look like an ass.

81, if you don't like the US, get out. I am perfectly aware of what's happening and of the first amendment. I don't think that insulting Marines is helping in any way.
kaijapapaya 0
112, I'm assuming you're referring to the part of the first amendment that mentions free speech. If I didn't understand it, then I wouldn't be voicing my opinion, would I?
