Today, my mom added me on Facebook. She wrote on my wall, for the whole world to see, "Why are you swearing on the internet?! You're grounded". FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I checked my Facebook to find I had been tagged in a bunch of photos from a party I had attended last night. On each picture I had a comment from my mom saying, "You're grounded." FML
Today, I briefly left my laptop while I went to use the toilet. When I came back, I found "I" had posted on Facebook, calling my mom a "stupid cunt who should just stay in the kitchen." The only other person home at the time was my grandpa. She didn't believe it, and permanently grounded me. FML
Today, I logged onto Facebook to a new notification. I got excited, until I went on to see that it was my mom commenting on my status. She had seen my friends swear in previous comments and decided to make a comment of her own. She told them, "Hey, watch out yr language!" I'm nineteen. FML
Today, my normally very modest and prissy mom came home, pissed off about something. I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say, and snapped at me to "fuck off." She then grounded me for "making" her use that kind of "vile language." FML
Today, my dad grounded me for swearing, after I read a funny comment on Youtube to my sister. The supposed swear word? "YOLO." FML
Today, my mom left for a business trip. Thinking it was a good time to throw a party, I mass messaged everyone on my contact list. I thought it was going to be a success. The problem with this? My mom is on my contacts list. She replied "I'll be home in an hour. You're grounded." 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, my mother is mad at me for deleting my Facebook account. I actually deleted the account because I'd had enough of putting up with her criticizing comments on every Facebook post I made. FML
Today, our house caught fire. While trying to help my mom get to safety, the word "fuck" accidentally escaped my mouth. Once we were safe, she said I was grounded for swearing. I'm 19. FML
Today, my mom took my cell to work with her. When she got home later, she scolded me for not answering her calls. When I pointed out that she'd taken it, she grounded me for "talking back". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's what you get for saying things on the internet you won't normally say in front of your mom.

Write "**** off" to her and when she confronts you about it, tell her you're a whole different person on the internet. :D

this is why: a. old people shouldn't be on facebook. b. you should NEVER add a parent to something like that. defriend immediately.

Sounds like my mum, except for the 'grounded' part, lmao. Add parents but hide some info from them, you can adjust your privacy settings.

You can flip around privacy settings on individual posts. That way only she can see her post and she won't notice that you've removed it from the rest of the world's view. Likewise you can hide posts with profanity from her. It's all in the lock icon near the post.

Never add relatives if you aren't prepared to deal with the consequences, I would have thought that would've been clear to you. Haha I told my dad I'd never accept him on facebook if he made an account (he was thinking of doing so) and I got a request with a message saying "add or die" my dad has 3 facebook friends. I'm not one of them. DE-NIED.

Agreed, #6. the Internet is way more permanent than getting in your mom's face and OP clearly doesn't have the stones for the latter.
ImaginaryFoe 1
Agreed with #36. If you are mortified by a "you're grounded" comment, you probably shouldn't be cursing anyway, you little poseur. No interwebz for you.

Rule #1 of being a teenager with a facebook account: Remember, your parents read it. Punishment deserved.

this you can also set your privacy settings to stop her from seeing your wall

that's why you never add family members. they **** you in reality and they WILL **** you over on FB.

The OP was a teenager, which means they didn't have a choice.
Telinaa 0
Kinda do have a choice. Have you noticed the big blue "ignore" button recently?
ConradKay 13
Umm, have you considered that OP might have gotten in trouble for not accepting their mom?
rawr_ily96 24
I say she should've clicked ignore, then when her mom asked about it she should go "What friend request?"
Cinn_fml 23
Well, if you didn't want her to see it, you either shouldn't have said it, or shouldn't have added her. Facebook is a site that contains a wide variety of people, usually the ones you talk to are friends and family, just because it's an internet interface, doesn't mean it suddenly becomes acceptable to swear in front of people you wouldn't normally swear in front of.

WTF, ur not their mum, u cant tell them what to do... and btw why do u hav to comment on every effing fml there is, don't u have a life?

ummm HELLO !!!!! She is trying to give advice !!! So the OP can maybe fix it !!!
cantfightfate 0
67 why r you such a bitch? every comment I read youre saying something mean to this girl. i think YOU need to get a life.
Cinn_fml 23
hahaalolz, I don't have a comment on every FML going. And, as I said to the last person who asked that question, define 'life'. I clearly have a life in the pure definition, as I am alive, but I do not think that is what you meant. Also, what mahimalil said. And yes, Cantfightfate, I've noticed that too.
TheIrishJaneDoe 9
I lol'ed at "ur not their mum." 67, I'd give it up. Cinn's haterz have a way of getting stomped pretty soundly around here, and not by people as nice and polite as Cinn is.

that's why you don't add your family on facebook if they care what they read
