Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Parents of the year
Today, I got to experience the rare pleasure of overhearing my divorcing parents admit that neither of them want full custody of me, or even shared custody, and then planning to guilt one of my grandparents into accepting custody instead. God I hate them both. FML
For the kids
Today, I overheard my parents discussing their divorce. Apparently, what they mostly disagree over is that neither of them want custody of me and are considering delaying their divorce until I’m 18, because at least then legally I’m not either of their problem to deal with. FML
Unstable
Today, I won my custody battle. I wish I could be happy about it, but it strained my current marriage so badly that now I'm going through my second divorce. FML
Today, my mom was put in jail for beating the shit out of my dad. FML
Today, I found out my parents are getting divorced. They're fighting over the dog instead of my sister and me. FML
Today, I was arguing with one of my professors. She said that all married couples fight and I told her that my parents have never argued or fought about anything. When I got home my parents told me that they're getting a divorce. FML
Today, my parents tried to convince me to get a divorce. My wife and I are perfectly fine. FML
Today, I had to dig into my savings to help my parents pay for their divorce. FML
Today, I got fired from my job. I worked for my parents. FML
The Unmatchmaker
Today, my parents found out that I separately convinced them not to get back together, and now they're not speaking to me. FML

I am very sorry to hear that. You should talk to your counselor at school. I know this is in no way close to how you must feel, but my parents made it clear they liked all of my siblings more then me. Try to realize that you can be a great person and have an amazing future despite them. Try to learn from the mistakes of your parents so that you can become a better person then them. And most of all, don't give up. Life gets better. Remember; Those that matter, don't mind. And those that mind, don't matter.

I'm sorry OP. parents going through divorces sometimes act like total assholes and don't think of the kids. Mine are divorcing too and both parents try to make me think the other is evil. Try staying with relatives for a while. Hope it all works out
