Not the sharpest tool

By Mothering - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - Australia

Today, I took my 16 year-old daughter to get a bank account, taking her birth certificate with us as requested. When the teller wrote her name down on a piece of paper, my daughter said, "How do you know my name?" The teller just looked at her and held up her birth certificate. I raised a nitwit. FML

shes a keeper, dont worry, theres always clown university ;)

Am I the only one who feels sorry for the daughter? I mean , maybe she wasn't paying attention or maybe she spaced out a little. I think her mother saying ' I raised a nitwit' is a bit harsh. She's your frigging daughter woman.

Just do what my dad does when we ask a dumb question and stare her down with a "Are you stupid?" look. Now we always think before we speak.

she probably didnt see the birth certificet

Well I just hope she is at least hot... for her sake...

She really doesn't sound like a loving mother at all. Her daughter's life sucks.

Geeze it was only a mistake lol! She didn't take time to think before she spoke, it happens to all of us.

All the frat boys are just waiting for someone like her to come along. Seriously raise her better

someone doesnt take their kids for who they are! [shame shame shame!]

A child's intelligence and social behavior does not lie completely on the parents.

I think it's just cuz your from Queensland

is your pick gerard way or Ellen degenerous

ahem. it is the lead singer of the best band ever, therefore it is gerard way. because there are many differences between ellen and this hottie right here

..i dont understand how OP thinks their daughter is a nit wit .. maybe she just forgot about it ?

Wooooooow. You really think that? That's pretty ignorant.

Hey hey, it could be true. maybe the kid was raised stupid.

7, she did say that she raised a nitwit...

Actually, that's not ignorant at all. "Like father, like son", the old saying goes. Why can't we substitute the males in the saying with female? Are you being sexist now huh punk lol

VasilisaUzhasnaj 29

Who the **** was being sexist??

69 before I tell you you're actually being sexist and being very contradicting, congratulations on the number you got. Anyways your actually saying that they should blame the dad because it's like "Father like son." Since they are both women and by your logic them it's "Like mother like daughter." :D

There is a substitution. The saying is "like mother like daughter."

#189 and AlexandersAngel: But that also means you are 3/4 not Dutch, and 3/4 not christian. What exactly has this got to do with the OP and current conversation thread?

i totally agree the apple doesnt fall far from the tree

honest mistake...everybody gas a blonde moment every once in a while

i totally agree! if her kids arent up to her "standards," dont go writing an FML for the world. i feel bad for the girl. FHL for having a mother who doesnt except her few (or many) blonde moments!

just because we have blonde hair doesnt mean we are dumb im a blonde A+ student

I'm a blonde and an A-A+ University student. too. I still have like a million blonde moments though.

ps any spelling and punctuation Errors are due to autocorrect. My iPod has a mind of its own.

Hmm.. maybe getting her a bank account isn't the best idea.

agreed. cancel that shit with a quickness

You guys are either the worst Parents or are 13. She forgot/didn't realize the teller had her name there so her OWN FATHER calls her a nitwit? Wtf?

OP's daughter is in shock that she is now a part of "the system" from here on in.
