She let it go on for 3 weeks? Unless your daughter is a sociopath, I feel like there's something fishy about the whole thing. How old is your daughter? If she's around high school age or so and old enough to understand what is going on, it's possible she lied and said that she did it just because you two were fighting and she wanted you guys to make up...I hope that's not the case, but just throwing it out there.
Wow!, that's not a prank but a indirect attack, pranks are suppose to be funny and last at the most a couple of hours, she deliberate did it and didn't even confess, she needs counseling and if you didn't let your husband explain, maybe you guys need couples counseling
I've read so many FML's like this where the victim doesn't recover, and it makes me afraid to even be in a relationship for fear that someone is going to purposelessly ruin it for their own amusement.
that kid deserves a nice prank in return. tell her that you are getting a divorce and that she has to stay with family in the heart of the Alaska where the sun only shines two days a year.
That girl needs an hour-long beating every day until she moves out.
Well at least you know...maybe revoking it will get your money back...
Ah hell no. Whoop that ass!
look at the situation from the kids point of view: parents fighting is one of the biggest mistakes you can do in front of your child, it stresses the kid out and creates tension in his/her life. now im not condoning what the kid did but i can understand her frustration and desperate need to have peace in her home life. don't punish her via beating, grounding, or taking everything away from her. instead you, your husband, and your daughter need to discuss calmly any problems you have with each other. your daughter needs to feel like she's in a secure environment and shouting, screaming, arguing with your husband is counterproductive to that specific crucial need for her development
Clearly you must be joking. A royal cut ass should be the order of the day
Um, yeah... you must not have kids. You'll be lucky as **** if you don't hear me scream in a day. They drive you bat shit crazy sometimes.
no i am not joking, i just don't see the point of harshly punishing the kid when all she did was attempt to get her parents to stop fighting 24/7 not that i condone her charging her fathers credit card for a website membership. now that i think about it, how did she get a hold of a activated credit card in the first place? surely your husband doesn't leave his wallet laying about or does he
this is a kid we're talking about, this isn't sociopath behavior! its the behavior of a desperate little girl trying to send a message to her parent's: stop fighting and cut the tension in my life what she did wasn't good but like i said i understand where she's coming from, how would you like it if your home life was filled with tension and stress because your parent's couldn't stop fighting for 5 minutes and give you a little peace? you wouldn't like it at all, neither does this kid and i don't blame her for wanting a non tension filled upbringing
Your totally not understanding what happened here, the girl caused all the fighting with her actions. The parents were only fighting because of what she did. If your fully understanding what happened here and you still think your suggestion will work, then you need to have some kids of your own and let me know how that works out for you. lol
Yeah, Moon_dreamer I'm thinking you missed the point, so let's try work ding this another way. "My marriage was fine, and then I found out my husband was cheating on me. It took three weeks of us fighting before my daughter fessed up that she planted the evidence of his affair as a prank." Still think she was justified in setting up her dad?
Ok apparently you have no clue about sociopathic behaviors. I agree with everyone else here about something being fishy, but if the kid did do this as a "prank" she is a sociopath. Sociopaths have no regard for anyone but themselves. Yes there might have been problems in the OP's marriage beforehand but you have just given the kid the ok to go ahead and do it because their home life sucks..
You're an idiot. While parents shouldn't fight in front of their kids it happens and they get over it. Most kids when they wan attention act out in school or hurt themselves. She didn't do this for a bit of attention, she did it with malicious intent. And it's easy to get your parents credit card, when you're at home do you lock all your credit cards in a safe? All she had to do was go into their room or get the card out of the wallet if it was left on the table. It's obvious you don't have kids or even remember being a kid because you have a holier than thou attitude.
I don't think you understand what's going on here, the daughter's prank is what caused the fighting in the first place. Plus, it's almost impossible for parents not to argue in front of the kids; my parents argue in front of my brothers and I a lot, even if they don't, we can still hear them. The best the parents can do most of the time is to explain that just they argue doesn't mean they don't love each other. I do agree they need family counseling though, I highly doubt that the daughter is some sort of sociopath, there would be other signs. I think there's much deeper issues with the daughter that led her to do this. She needs to be punished but she also needs help and to learn how to deal with these issues in a more constructive manner so she doesn't do something like this again. OP and her husband probably need counseling too, there might be underlying trust issues which caused this incident to escalate more than it should have.
*just because they argue
Maybe I'm the only one here, but I'd say it's your fault OP for not trusting your husband. Yes, I know there are cheaters on both sides of the isle. But if my significant other said "I didn't cheat" I'd trust them right up to the point where I found them in bed with another person. Was the daughter wrong? Sure... That wasn't a funny prank and I'm not defending her. But I couldn't imagine if my significant other said "I didn't do it" doubting them for even a moment much less fighting with them for weeks over it all the time they maintained their innocence.
They credit card bill is enough evidence for me to get pretty damn suspicious. Not only that but they could have been having problems before hand and that "prank" made it 100 times worse.
#64, I see some real heartache in store for you. I'm all about giving your partner the benefit of the doubt, but cheaters LIE. They aren't going to just come out and say, "oh. Yup I cheated.". An account profile filled out for your spouse and a credit card bill showing charges paying for the website is PRETTY DAMNING EVIDENCE. If that isn't enough to make you suspicious, then I wish you all the luck in the world.

Ground her butt until the apocalypse!!! That's a mean prank and she let it go way too far
You should beat her ass, why would she do a prank that could potentially ruin a relationship with marriage?
