The mama bird has to kick the baby bird out of the nest eventually. The baby bird should shit on the nest before it leaves.

I can't figure out why people like that have kids. Honestly, it's incredible, kicking your child out like that ._.

Wow. You should send the the same thing, just to throw them off.

Or Brochures for the worst nursing homes in dodgy neighbourhoods as a reminder of what could come in the future.

Or brochures for funeral plans- but make sure they know they're paying for it

Nursing home sounds better, because parents always wish for their kids to take care of them when they're old. This will be OPs sick, humorous joke.

OP might have other siblings that are willing to take care of the parents

Even if op has other siblings if they're treated like op they'll probably be doing the same thing.

It's actually a running joke in my family that I am going to put my parents in a nursing home, and I always let them know if they are getting closer to go to a good nursing home, or the one that makes old people knit and pick okra for the homes profit....

Uhhm, why are people acting as if OP's parents have done something ridiculously cruel? Eviction may be a bit excessive, but there's plenty of parents that suggest their children move out at 18.

Just remember OP: you can give them the same when you're paying for their nursing home. Good luck though, hope they change their mind.

That's unfortunate but a good opportunity to get out in the world and see what you're made of!

It is hard at 18. You need to go to university and then have a job to pay for everything else. It is a good life lesson but it will suck.

I guess they missed the memo that 25 is the new 18. My dad made no secret of the "out at 18" rule, so we were all prepared for it. Either working our moving into uni dorms.

weird how you can be conditioned to expect and respect a lack of affection.

Well now you will also need a BURN notice! Apply cold water, OP.

Jokes aside, that's tough OP. Try to curb your anger, don't let yourself be backed into a corner. I can't believe they'd do such a thing on your birthday, they must get their Kicks from being sadistic.

Before you leave, make sure you have a huge party and trash the place. Then you wont have to clean it up as its not your house!!

Parents aren't kidding about kicking you out at 18.

all of the commenters on FML are retarded

Haha my parents said they want to kick me out at 18 too! Except they were joking... FYL

I don't think they really meant it. And if you are such a brat, you would be least cared. Its freedom.

I think, at this point, cultural differences start to manifest itself: when you turn eighteen, you become an adult and are expected to take care of yourself. So kicking OP out of the house may not have anything to do with being bratty, it may simply be the fact that OP is a legal adult now.
