Today, my mother was reading an annual Christmas letter from an old university friend. When she remarked that she could have married him instead of my father, I replied that she wouldn't have had me then. She then said, "Exactly, I could have had his daughter instead." FML

Today, my old man told me that he only married my mom because she convinced him she was pregnant with his child. In fact, she aborted a week later. "And then we had you instead." FML

Today, I thought my mom and I could put aside our differences and open our Christmas presents. When she opened mine, she turned to my dad and said she didn't want the present, so I could give it to someone else. 'Tis the season. FML

Today, my mother was talking about a holiday she went on this time last year. She turned to me to say, "You would've loved it, it's a shame you couldn't come". I was there. It was just the two of us on holiday together. FML

Thanks for nothing

Today, I asked my mother why she had me in the first place, as we never get along. She replied because my father wanted me. So, I called my father to ask him the same question, he said he only wanted to have me to keep my mother around, and that didn't work, so I was a waste. FML

Today, my mother told me to my face that if she could do it all over again, she wouldn't have had kids. Thanks, Mum. It's not like I asked to be born. FML

Guess whose Christmas present I would be returning! :D If you don't want me as your child, you must not want my gifts either!

No one is commenting on how the OP was also sort of rude--maybe mom snapped because her kid is digging for a compliment. A between the lines "But you have me, so you're totally happy with your life, right? Cause my existence validates everything."

A child digging for a compliment from a parent, we must alert the village elders!! Seriously, what the hell is wrong with you!

Probably because none of the rest of us saw the "glass as half full" like you...are you this depressing to the people around you as well?

Think of it like this, you can always threaten to dump her in a nursing home when she grows old enough. She would have no one to blame but herself!

U should tell her that she is going to the nursing home as soon as she can't take care of her self and if she gets sick and it up to u that ur going to pull the plug on her

Actually, she wouldn't have had "his" daughter...probably more like a son or just a bad case of stupidity...(oh, sorry..I see she suffers from that already)...your mom is mean for saying such drivel.
