Love, Parents and Overreaction: Enough is enough

Enough is enough

By Rachaael - 19/01/2023 02:00

Today, I fell asleep at my boyfriend’s house and missed my curfew. It’s almost 4 a.m. Scrambling, I arrived home to find the locks changed. On the door knob was a note: “Go live with your boyfriend, you slut. See if he cooks and cleans up after you. I’ll help you move out your stuff in the morning. - Mom” FML

Strict house

Today, after I spent a weekend at my boyfriend’s house, I came home to find the locks changed. My parents decided to change them because they “don’t need me slutting around under their roof.” My boyfriend lives 4 hours away and I have nothing but an overnight bag. FML

Overreacting mom striked again

Today, my mom kicked me out of the house because I missed my curfew and overslept at my boyfriend’s house. She said she’d let me back in on one condition: that I was still a virgin. My boyfriend’s parents won’t let me live with him. I’m currently staying in the Walmart restroom. FML

Overreacting much?

Today, I came from a 12-hour shift to find my clothes and stuff outside, and the locks changed. I called my mom to let me in and she told me, “Hell the fuck no, I’m not having a drug addicted junkie up in my house! You’re no longer my daughter!” and hung up. Apparently, she found my stash of weed. FML

Today, my fiancé's mother made him pack his stuff and move to Montana while I was at work. I came home to a half-written note because she wouldn’t let him finish. We own a house together. FML

Get out

Today, I came back to my boyfriend's house where I've been staying to find all my things thrown outside, ruined, including my entire CD collection, textbooks and clothes cut up. All because I had left my phone there and had got a text from a guy saying, "Hi, how have you been?" FML

Today, I was in my bedroom with my boyfriend and we were kissing. My mom then came into my room and started shouting at my boyfriend for cheating on her. FML

Today, I packed up to get ready to move to my boyfriend’s. I just graduated high school and I don’t get along with his mom, but I have no other choice of living. I was supposed to move in with his family tomorrow but now his mom won’t let me. It was last minute, and I’m basically homeless. FML

Today, my mother stormed into my room shouting about how I never go anywhere and then tells me to go out "NOW" and do something. As she is pushing me out the door, her boyfriend walks in. FML

Today, I came home early, and my boyfriend's car was in my driveway. Inside, he was talking to my parents. He walked right past me and left. My mother then says, "He wanted me to tell you it's over." FML

Today, my girlfriend and I decided to sneak into the shower at her house while her parents went out to eat and a movie. Half way through our shower we heard a knocking at the door, it was her mom. We had left all of our clothes downstairs. Safe to say I won't be allowed there any more. FML

Illegal eviction. Take a photo of the note and bring the original to the police. They'll force her to let you back in - if you choose to continue living there - or she could be arrested. If you're a minor, she also could possibly be charged with child abandonment.

I wouldn't want to accuse someone of lying on the internet but if you're not, I'm impressed that your mom was able to get the locks changed AFTER your curfew passed.

She could have switched out the knobs herself. It’s not hard; I’ve done it, and I’m not exactly Bob Vila.

True, but that would mean she'd had the new deadbolts on hand and ready to swap out the instant her kid 'stepped out of line' which is honestly scary. :/

But the fact Mom had a fresh set of locks for all the doors is key here. If Mom did have them ready, it implies that there have been recurrences of this curfew breaking or other arguments/discussions which OP is not fessing up to. There is more to the story here. OPs age is a big part of it.

But you'd have to have them already purchased and ready to put in. For ALL the doors.

Only thing I can think of is, some Parents, if they are controlling enough, will give their child one key, that works on one door, the front, so they can't 'sneak in' or other stuff.
