I hope your kids aren't old enough to be on Facebook and realize their mom is a lying asshole. That kind of thing can give a kid a complex about being unwanted. But hey, at least you got more time with them at the holidays. That's always a plus.
If the kids are emotionally mature enough to understand that their mom is the problem and that they deserve better, I'd absolutely agree. But a lot of kids in this situation will assume they are somehow at fault or unworthy, no matter how well you explain that the opposite is true. If they can handle it though, it would be much better for their dad to break it to them (rather than just getting hit with pictures of mommy slamming back Jager-Bombs).
They probably couldn't afford NyQuil, so they went to the bar to get Jaegermeister.
It seems like a good thing that you aren't married to a scumbag like her.
I think the father is a peace of crap, because he complains how he had to care of his kid?? This is a shame

I hope you get to call her out on her shit OP and that she should understand she should be honest about stuff like this rather than lying to you. Either way you got to spend time with your kids and see the New Year.
Well sounds like she is dumb as a flat hat so at least she's an ex. Happy New Year to you and the kiddos.

Well I was going to tell you how lucky you are tonight but everyone has already stated the obvious. So I'll just say sorry that you still have feelings for ex and things didn't work out with her.
What? What did you read?
Nice to see that you and your ex-wife really love your daughters.

Nice to see you actually know them and the whole story. Oh, wait. . .
Y'know...when my parents split up, my Dad would have killed to have me and my brother with him for any kind of holiday. And we would have loved to spend it with him too. I really don't see how this is an FML at all. You're spending time with your daughters and it sounds like you didn't even have to have a row with your ex to do it. Stop whining and enjoy your time together.
So, you are completely fine with the mother lying to him, and most likely also to the children, just to be able to go out and drink? The least she could have done is be honest and call him to change the custody arrangement.
You got to share a major event with your daughter. Kind of feel sorry for her having two parents who don't want her around.
You deserved it for acting like having your child is a punishment. Your poor kid has TWO parents who suck.

More like f your daughters lives because the way this FML was phrased it sounds like neither of you wanted to spend time with them for New Years. At least your with family OP!
Why are you complaining about having your own children to chill with. To me that's winning
