Today, my sisters and I pitched together nearly $500 to send my mom to the spa for Mother's Day. We put the printed sheet with her info into a little box with our card on top. When she opened it, she freaked out and started hugging my dad. Turns out he switched the cards and took all the credit. FML

Today, after spending $120 to have a bouquet of flowers delivered to my mom, she called to complain that I had forgotten about her for Mother's day, but also praise my sister for apparently receiving my flowers I sent at the door and passing them off as hers. FML

Today, I bought my mom a gift certificate for a spa treatment for two so we could spend some quality time together. She took my sister. FML

Today, I took my mom out to a fancy restaurant, and spent close to $300 on her Mother's Day present. Later, my little brother drew her a card with crayons on pink construction paper. She cried. He's 20 years-old. FML

Today, I got a birthday card from my parents. It was my sister's from earlier in the year. They scratched out her name and wrote mine underneath. FML

Today, I found out my mom took around $2,500 from my savings account to pay off my sister's college tuition. She recently flunked out of her studies and won't be returning to college anyway. FML

Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. FML

Today, I slipped money into my mother's purse after she refused to let me pay for lunch. She caught me in the act and thought I was stealing money from her instead. FML

Today, it's my mother's birthday. She received the ultimate gift from my brother, who told her he had just been accepted into medical school. I bought her scratch-offs. She won a dollar. FML

I don't know if he did it jokingly because if he didn't your dad is a dick, OP. Anyway, you should tell your mother how it was.

Never get a gift for him or her again. Simple as that.

Your father is an asshole and I think you and your sisters should tell her the truth that it was actually you guys who set this up for her and you're upset he took the credit for it. Might be worth talking to your father AFTER your mother, and ask why the hell he would do something like that!!

Oh and for Fathers Day don't get him anything, tell him it's for swapping the presents on Mothers Day and that karma is a bitch.

Well guess he's not getting anything for fathers day. You can take that for credit.

Oh, so you only got her the gift so you could get credit for it? Get over it you whiny twat. Your mom got a nice gift that she loved. Who cares who claimed it.
