Today, my daughter wouldn't stop yapping on about not being able to register on the new Harry Potter website. The amount of whiny jibber-jabber emanating from her cake-hole made me want to boot her from our family tree, and I had to resort to booze to wash the pain away. I'm a terrible parent. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my daughter turned 11. Since she LOVES Harry Potter, I decided to write her an acceptance letter to Hogwarts. When she saw the letter, she screamed and showed me. When she found out I wrote it, she told me she hated me, started crying, and stepped on my foot. FML
Today, my 9-year-old daughter was acting out and wouldn't do her homework. I told her that if she didn't study, she wouldn't get her acceptance letter from Hogwarts. She looked into my eyes, straight through to my soul and said, "Hogwarts isn't real, retard." FML
Today, during dinner, my daughter rudely cut into my conversation and gushed that she's "like, totally" going to audition for a reality TV show next year, after I pay her way. Five minutes into her jaw-dropping stupidity, I had to physically restrain myself from slapping her out of her chair. FML
Today, my mom made a Facebook status about me: "My daughter is on her rags and won't shut the fuck up #annoyingbitch". FML
Today, I took away my 8-year-old daughter's toy for throwing it too many times. She then said, "I need a beer." FML
Today, after months of being pestered to do so, I finally read the first Harry Potter book. I hated it. Upon hearing this, my girlfriend posted the fact on Facebook, where I immediately received tons of abuse and eventual shunning by my friends, family, and coworkers. My girlfriend just laughed. FML
Today, my husband tried to annoy me by slurping on his almost-finished drink. I yelled at him to knock it off. Later, our daughter told her class that mommy and daddy had been fighting about his drinking during breakfast. FML
Today, I was going through my daughter's contacts, except all of them had names from Harry Potter. I found the name "Mom." I was relieved I didn't have some silly name, until I realized it wasn't my number; it was her father's new wife. My number was under "Voldemort." FML
Today, I told my daughter that she wasn't allowed to eat in her room, so she sat at the table and glared at me for 10 minutes while she ate. She's 15. FML
Today, after being fed up with my sarcastic, mouthy daughter, I decided to remove her TV from her room. I dropped it on my foot and broke two toes. She promptly said, "That's what you get." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

wow harsh... You couldn't have worded that any meaner. Maybe that's just something your daughter is in to and if you want to be a good parent and respect the things she is interested in you could start by trying to help her with her problem and stop complaining about her "cake hole". Maybe her "cake hole" would be shut if her mother would try and resolve her problem like she is suppose to do.

if she wants to register early, make sure she matches time with england, or else the register will close. I had to wake up and wait to register! POTTERMORE FTW

Children need some boundaries. Kids in today's society are spoiled. And there's nothing a parent can do.

Wait, just so I'm clear, there's nothing a parent can do about their children being spoiled? Call me crazy, but I'm not quite sure you know what a parent's job is supposed to be.

WHAT NEW HARRY POTTER WEBSITE???

I agree op. Tell that kid he/she needs to stop living in this NONEXISTENT and MADE UP fantasy world of Harry potter. I've always liked hp, but the damn people who are OBSESSED with this shit piss me off. It's like Harry Potter and Doctor Who run their lives, and forget what reality is.
