Today, when I was unpacking all of my stuff, my parents declared that they are going to live in Australia, and have found me a 'friend'. I am a 14 year old girl at boarding school, and my friend is my new foster mum. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my over-controlling parents would be moving in next door. I'm almost 23, and moved 5,365 km away to get away from them. FML
Today, the boy I have crush on at school announced that his family were moving to Australia. My friend thought that it would be funny to spread a rumour that I was moving too, in order to follow him. Everyone has heard it, and unfortunately everyone believes it, including him. FML
Today, I found out about my parent's divorce over Facebook from my sister who lives 8 hours away in another province. They made the decision 3 weeks ago. I live with my parents. FML
Today, I moved in with my friend and her husband so we can be roommates during school. Today is also the day they decided to get a divorce. It's going to be a long year. FML
Today, I borrowed my adopted mom's laptop and found out that either her, my dad, or both of them, have been trying to research legal ways of un-adopting me and giving me back to the foster care system. FML
Today, my flatmate moved in with me. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, so did her mother. FML
Today, my parents said that we're moving back to Los Angeles. I'm so fucking pissed off because in the couple of years since we moved to a tiny town, I've become a different person and love my new life. This is just completely undoing everything I've been through and they won't let me move in with my new best friend. FML
Today, after eighteen years of living with my adoptive parents, I met my biological mum for the first time. She's a forty year old, 300lb American woman who wears 'Twilight' t-shirts and will be spending the rest of her visit to the UK trying to find Robert Pattinson. She says I remind her of herself. FML
Today, I found out my mother had remarried, and that I was getting a stepfather and stepbrother. However, I found out about it 30 minutes before we left to pick them up from the airport, and also found out that I'm losing my bedroom. FML
Today, after telling my parents just exactly what I thought of them and that I was moving out, the person I was supposed to move in with called to say they'd decided they would rather live alone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

This is awful. I hope you find some other adults that you can be close to and take an interest in you. Please remember that this about them and not you; it's their selfishness and neglect, not because you are not a worthwhile person. I am so sorry to hear this.

well, once they settle there, send them a big box of cookies, make them yourself, add whatever you wish to add.

@ 66 stfuuuuuuuu sirriously dick face... if you've never been there and don't know the laws the chances are abandonment is perfectly illegal.

as a student at boarding school i'd just like to state how minor this really is and how it isn't really an FML. Seeing as we barely see our parents anyway, and the foster mother would probably be due to the OP not being able to go to Australia during half terms which are about a week long? So she'd need someone to stay with. We have it at our school, for the ones who's parents live abroad, as mine do, I just happen to be lucky as I have family around :).

Well, remember this when it's time to choose their nursing home and pick the nastiest one that has cockroach colonies roaming all over the hallways and rats gnawing on the window frames. I think that vengence is the best medicine. Can you sue them for any funds ? Probably not as they are paying for boarding school. Still, think of some (NON-VIOLENT) things you can do to them that will piss them off and that are LEGAL. You won't do any of them, but the planning will make you feel better. Anyway, I hear Australia is a right pit with terribly poisonous natural fauna, but then again I live in New Jersey, so perhaps I shouldn't be so judgmental...

Is this even legal? Meh. Unless this was preempted by something else, you're probably better off without such assholes in your life. On the bright side, if you can make something successful of your life and they try to make good on it, you can (and should) tell them to piss off.
