Today, I was shopping with my baby daughter when an older woman came up to me. She glared and said, "You know, if you kids learned how to keep your legs closed, you wouldn't be a mother at 16." I'm 25. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Judgement Day
Today, I was walking through the grocery store with my new baby daughter, when an old woman came up to me and spat, "If you whores would keep your legs together, you wouldn't be a mom at fifteen." I'm eighteen. FML
I'm still young
Today, I was sitting in a waiting room with my two-month-old son. A sweet little old lady came up to me and said, "Maybe if you knew how to keep your legs closed, you wouldn't have a baby at 15, slut." I'm 23 and married. FML
People of Walmart
Today, at Walmart, a crazy old woman bitched me out for being pregnant. She kept following me around, calling me a stupid teen slut and saying she hoped my baby died so I could live a "normal life." I'm 26 and just very short. FML
You tried
Today, while shopping, I saw a little girl and her mom. The girl was pouting so I tried to cheer her up by asking her if she was a princess, because she was so pretty. She smiled but her mom looked at me with disgust and told me to, "Get lost, pedo." I'm a 17-year-old girl. FML
RUDE!
Today, I was at Aéropostale with some friends when I noticed a woman glaring at me. When we got to the checkout, the woman still had her eyes on me, so I asked why she was staring. She snapped, "If you had kept your legs closed, you wouldn't be pregnant." I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I was in line at the store behind a lady and her young daughter. Trying to be polite I smiled at the little girl. She burst into tears asking her mommy 'what is wrong with that ladies teeth'. Apparently braces on a 25 year old is not 'kid friendly'. FML
All my fault
Today, I went clothes shopping. I took my little daughter into the dressing room while I tried some clothes on. She somehow managed to open the door while I was changing. A lady outside then bitched me out for "exposing" myself to her kids. FML
Today, while in line at the supermarket, I told the lady behind me that she had a cute baby. She shot me a disgusted look and straight up accused me of being a pedophile. FML
Today, I had to explain to my son why it is not okay to slap old women's butts. He's 16. FML
External validation
Today, I was grocery shopping, feeling good about myself, until when I was waiting in line at the checkout, a small kid in his mother's arms in front turned to look straight at me and said, "Ewwwww." FML

Even if you were 16, she shouldn't have just come up and said that. People are unbelievably rude. Seriously, it's none of their business, screw off.

Most women would find this to be a compliment, but I understand where you are coming from. Some people are so rude these days!

most 35 year olds want to be told they look 16... not most 25 year olds.

When I was 12, i was baby sitting my 4 month old cousin and had the same sort of comment. Now I'm 25, and like you, still get those comments... People just need to learn to mind their own business.

Hope you told her.

1. OP, I hope you punched her and said "You want more, byatch?" 2. It's a compliment. You look very young and she's jealous. When you are her age you'll look much better than she ever did at your age.

It's not a compliment, and she wasn't jealous. She was getting her granny panties in a knot because [she thought] it just reaffirmed her belief that 16 year old girls are ***** who need to be fitted with locked chastity belts or something.

25 year olds don't want to look younger than they really are, now if you were 35 then it's a compliment.

I don't get it? What's so bad about it? If you were really 16, that would have sucked. When us women get older, we complain about looking old and try everything on the market to look young again. Obviously you're going to look young for a long time. What's so bad about that?

What's wrong with that? This should totally be on MLIA, she basically just gave you a compliment while trying to insult you, by calling you younger than you actually are. You should have said "THANK YOU!!!" and given her a big hug. c:

I know how you feel. I've gotten the glares after my son calls me mommy and I'm 27. I actually had a girl ask me if my son was my only little brother. Apparently she thought I was 12. No, I was 5 months pregnant and the only sweatshirt that fit me was one of my SIL's sweatshirts and she's really into Tigger.

Chuck Norris owns the greatest poker face of all time. It helped him win the World Series of Poker despite holding just a joker, a get out of jail free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs and a green #4 from the game Uno.

Same thing happens to me all the time, but I get 12 rather than 16. I'm 24 and only 4'8, so imagine having 3 kids, one almost as tall as you hanging around calling you mommy. It could always be worse. Just sayin...
