Today, my mum yelled at me for wanting to apply to university courses that she doesn't approve of. I'm applying for Biomedical Sciences and Microbiology, she's an unemployed Jehovah's Witness. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mother won't let me intern at a prestigious college, working with graduate students and professors, and being paid, because she doesn't want to drive me. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me because I refused to lend her money. The reason I won't lend her money? The last time I did, she and my dad went out and bought a Macbook and a new car instead of paying bills. Apparently, I'm being 'selfish' by keeping my own money and putting it towards university. FML
Today, I found out my mom has been stealing from me to pay for Scientology courses. FML
Today, my mum decided that me being bisexual meant that I was "deciding whether or not to be a lesbian" because supposedly, no man will have me. Thanks mum. FML
Today, I got an offer to study at a good university. My father has been pushing me to apply for years, so I ecstatically broke the news. Instead of congratulating me, he just grunted and delivered the more important news that he's divorcing my mum. Moment ruined. FML
Today, as I was brushing my teeth, I heard my mum praying to God to help her "get rid of such a stupid child". I have no idea what I've done wrong, and she's refused to talk to me all day. FML
Today, my dad refused to sign a student finance form to allow me to study my dream subject at university because he doesn't want the government knowing his business. FML
Today, my aunt asked me to change my major to a program I’m not interested in so her depressed son, my cousin, could have a study buddy. I’m in my last year of university and have been accepted to a master’s program. FML
Today, my mum thought it would be acceptable to tell my school that the reason I will not be attending classes is because I have "the shits." FML
Today, my mom bitched me out and threatened to send me to a Bible camp, after catching me admiring a photo of a bikini model, which is apparently "immoral behavior." This is the same woman who cheated on my dad twice, justifying it by claiming the Devil tempted her. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

And when she is asked what she does in her adult life, she will respond saying, "I walk around to people's houses and annoy people."

Start knocking on doors and see what other people think of your class choices.

They don't fall for that shit. I had a JW come to my house a year ago & I listened to her beliefs just to be polite. She comes to my house every ******* month now. Shit, she even knows my name.

Next time look who's there and if its her don't answer the door
Alexisthebestest 16
Well you have a group of JW come to your house & then you'll understand. They will pretty much camp out & wait for you to answer the door. Yes, I've told them I don't share their beliefs but they just won't give up. They have to much free time on their hands.

@iknoweveryhing jws actually can socialize with whomever they want, their humans just like every one else in this world.

It's actually quite looked down upon to be friends with anyone that is not a JW.

limited conversation with those of the "outside world" to look for opportunities to convert them does not equate to having the freedom to socialize with everyone as you please.

Ummm not exactly true have you ever been counseled by the elders . Not the best situation when your not up to "their" standards. because I really feel like hearing that "non witnesses don't have my interests in mind." Not

My big brother is going to be studying Biomedical Sciences in University. Just thought I'd say that. He's an Athiest as well. And you're Mum should be proud of what you're doing! Stupid religious woman...

JWs, generally speaking, do not approve of going to college. Going to college allows one to think for themselves instead of being brainwashed by a cult. jwfacts.net is a good place to start...

looks like its .org not .net for that site

I promise that's not a good place to start. That's a bunch of hate speech on witnesses. The only reason most witnesses don't goto college is because they're taught that life has better things to offer than getting a high paying job and being a giant ass your whole life.
poemqueen 15
That's not even close to the truth! There's a ton of witnesses that go to collage if they can afford it. I have plans of going to collage and take classes in journalism. That doesn't go against our religious beliefs. Now if I was to go and take a class to become something that goes against our beliefs. Say someone that specializes in blood transfusions then yes that wouldn't be allow

^ Learning about or having a job that saves someone else's life is against your beliefs? :0 It is spelled college btw.

or because the world is going to end and there is no point in cultivating a life now...that's why my JW parents don't keep a job. or because it interferes with preaching time.

I believe it's called not being a low-life and living a successful life so your spouse and/or children can live happy lives and be supported by a person with a strong work ethic and a no-bullshit attitude.

Thanks for the website correction, my bad.

Since you "believe in" science so much, you ought to sign up for Scientology. I'm sure the JWs will be good with that -- they're a tolerant breed.
Eaglestrike117 29
You know Scientology is considered a religion right? And that it isn't synonymous with Science? I am ashamed to call you a fellow human being.

They arent really tollerant...

perdix is pretty hit-and-miss. A lot of miss, really. I'm no big fan of DocBastard either.

Does anyone understand sarcasm?
Eaglestrike117 29
You're the one who used the wording "believe in science." That was not the OP's words.
