Today, my psycho ex is threatening to take me to court on child abuse allegations. How did I abuse them? I “gendered” our children by buying them certain colored clothing and toys... that they’d asked for. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my ex-wife tried to hit me up for money for a skip bin, because the kids' room was too messy. She then sent me a picture of the mess after I said no, then I retaliated by submitting a report to child services against her. FML
Today, I took my step-kids and left my abusive husband. I've just been informed that I'm being accused of kidnapping. FML
Today, I confiscated my daughter’s tablet, phone and laptop after I caught her exchanging nudes with boys. My ex then called me in a rage, threatening to take me to court over “stealing his belongings” since he purchased them. No concern for our daughter’s behavior, just him wanting the stuff. FML
Today, a woman I’d never met came to my door asking if my kids were ready to go. Obviously I refused to send my kids with a stranger. Apparently she’s my ex's new girlfriend and "has his permission" to come get my kids. Now he’s threatening to take me to court for violating the visitation order. FML
Today, after being unnecessarily cruel and smearing me in court, my ex had his first weekend with the kids since our split. He has texted me no less than 38 times, wanting play by play directions on how to take care of them. I wanna tell him to go fuck himself but I’m worried my kids will suffer. FML
Today, my psychotic ex-boyfriend hit a brand new low. I was served court papers, saying that he’s suing me by demanding I give him a paternity test for my daughter. He’s also telling everyone he’s her real father. He and I were broken up for more than a year before I even got pregnant. FML
Today, my ex-wife announced that she's taking me to court for child support. Her kids were just my stepkids and we weren't even married a year, but she apparently has a pretty good lawyer on her side. FML
Today, my ex-wife brought the kids to me angry that she had tried to pick up some guy but the kids ruined it just by being there, so she brought them to my house because she couldn’t be bothered this week. The judge giving her primary custody is a travesty of our legal system. FML
Today, my ex complained that the kids cry too much when they’re with him, so I must be telling them bad things about him. Well maybe if he showed up more than once every 6-8 months, the kids would know him better and be more comfortable with him. Court says I still have to continue give him access. FML
Today, my possibly soon-to-be ex-husband assaulted his sister because she said that our adoptive kids weren't really ours. Because of the pending criminal charges, we may have the adoption revoked. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Lemme Guess: your ex also thinks all men are idiotic sex-craving pigs, thinks that statues are out to kill humanity, and is a vegan who regularly harasses meat eaters.

One thing to understand is that culture is in fact far more important in maintaining stereotype and inequality than you'd think. No feminist thinks all men are idiotic sex-craving pigs - we just believe that there is a culture of inherently sexist remarks and that all anti-feminist men are against this therefore allowing cultural prejudice and with it, discrimination, to continue. Feminists advocate equality, and that under this society would indeed require a social revolution or overhaul to change such and give women and men an equal chance in their lives. So is it a surprise most feminism seems so militant? As for the statue thing, the Charlottesville statue was glorifying a hardly glorious cause. You'll say "it's just a statue, what's the big deal?" but it's just small things like this that ultimately will remind future generations the glorification of the CSA is an acceptable and legitimate political position. But it isn't - and I'd hope you agree it should only be seen as a controversial fringe position of people believing they live in the past.

Let them! Wouldn’t you love to see the judge’s reaction to such a ridiculous claim?
ohsnapword 21
I would hope that the judge thinks this claim is as ridiculous as you and I think it is. In this day and age, one can't be so sure.

sadly it would get to court and if he is in San Francisco they may care.

No way it'd even get to court.

They didn’t sincerely ask for them — they were conforming to the norms of the patriarchy to avoid ostracism from the power elite. Now that you know, all children should receive a hoop and a stick and left to their own devices.

I see you made the mistake of dating one of today's sjw's. Just tell her there are 2 genders. She might just fall apart.

Wow. I came into these comments agreeing that OP’s life sucks, but I find myself reconsidering that position after reading them...

Let him/her do it. Watch as her case falls over like a house of cards.

Luke Skywalker had the right idea of going into exile, I might do the same if I hear about more idiots like your ex.
