Today, I walked in on my daughter eating a handful of styrofoam packing pellets, because she thought they were Christmas candy. She's fourteen. What's next, eating rocks? FML

Today, I caught my young daughter eating candy after brushing her teeth. Angry, I asked her if she wanted all her teeth to fall out. She smiled and said, “Yes!” FML

Snack time

Today, my daughter was going to Bulk Barn so I asked her to pick me up something to snack on. When she got home, she brought over a bag and without listening to her explain what it was, I began eating it. She looked at me confused, then began laughing. It was a dog treat. FML

Today, I got a call from my daughter's school. Apparently, she was learning about the food pyramid and when she was asked to identify what she had eaten the day before, she said "dog food". FML

Today, I had to explain to my daughter that just because it says non-toxic on the crayons, it doesn't mean that you should eat them. She's 16. FML

Today, I found out my 12 year old daughter is going through a bit of an "emotional" stage. I got a call from her school saying she was sitting in the corner at recess trying to cut her wrist. With a plastic spoon. FML

Today, I walked into the kitchen to find my daughter trying to cut her wrist with a plastic spoon. When I asked her why, she said her friend Lucy did that so her parents would buy her pretty things. My daughter and Lucy are both four years old. FML

Today, after it appeared my daughter was throwing away any vegetables in her school lunch, I packed her all vegetables so she would have to eat at least one. Nope! She threw them out and complained to school that "mommy doesn't feed" her. I got a call from the school. FML

Today, my son was playing with a piece of plastic wrapping and trying not to let it fall to the floor as if it were a balloon. This is after he got some kick ass gifts for Christmas. Kids. FML

Seriously, go check if she has pica. She might have an eating disorder.

Maybe she thought it was Korean candy, they have candy that looks an awful lot like packing peanuts.

It's sad reading fmls about people and their dumb kids, where do they think the kids get their genes from?

Wow. Styrofoam as Christmas candy? Not even Brittany on _Glee_ is that much of a Cloud Cuckoolander. And yeah, I'm going with the people suggesting she might have pica. You should probably have her checked out by a mental-health professional, especially if there are signs that this is ongoing behavior.

I thought it was common sense that styrofoam doesn't taste like candy and it doesn't really look like it either.

Err.. I'm gonna be honest, it sounds more like she has pica and was just lying so you didn't realize.. You might wanna get that checked out.

Are you sure she isn't suffering from an eating disorder? Anorexics sometimes fill up on things such as toilet paper or styrofoam then drink a lot of water.
