Today, my mom told me she'd canceled my spring break trip to Europe for my 16th birthday. Why? So I could get my wisdom teeth pulled 2 months early. FML

Wtf? Sorry but that's not the reason why she cancelled it. She's hiding something because quite clearly that's not the real reason. I hope you can get things sorted out. GL OP

But wisdom teeth pulling costs money too; not all of it is covered by insurance. I think there's another reason here too

I bet she can't afford a European spring break trip AND a wisdom tooth removal surgery within two months of each other so opted to move the surgery up in order to save herself the embarrassment of having to explain it.

Seems pretty likely that this is a money issue. Both are expensive, and only one is really necessary.

Sounds like she did it on purpose to me

I'm not sure about yours, but wisdom teeth are potentially incredibly painful and removing them isn't a crappy option. I hate it for you OP, that really does suck.

Dentist aren't cheap, and maybe you'll get something better in the long run.

true. her mom could be planning something bigger for her birthday. or something good will come for her since she couldn't go on her trip. sucks her mom cancelled it though so she could get her teeth pulled. hopefully op will get something better.

You never know. I'm hoping op does get something better because if not then her mom is terrible for cancelling her plans like that and op will be in pain

Trading a trip to Europe for the dentist? Yeah, I don't think that was wise.

It wasn't a choice, hence why it's on FML.

Oof. Then that joke was reeeaal deep in there.

She has a different motive. Talk to her about it.

Two weeks of fun for two weeks of pain. Sorry OP, hope you get it sorted and happy sixteenth birthday!

She doesn't want to reinact the movie taken because the mom dies * spoiler *

Usually you put *Spoiler for Taken* first.

Don't be so spoiled. You'll probably still get great gifts.

So you WOULDN'T rather have your teeth pulled than go to Europe? Gee. Go figure.
