Today, my parents decided they won't pay for college because of a Fox News story that said higher education "makes you liberal." FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I found out why my parents have been trying to convince me not to go to college this year. I also found out where the $20,000 they just spent on landscaping came from. My college fund. Which is now $0. FML
Today, my parents threatened to take away my college funds. Why? Because I complained about my 10 pm curfew during break as a freshman in college. FML
Today, after 25 years of marriage, my parents decided to get a very nasty and extremely expensive divorce. Using my college tuition to pay for it. FML
Today, I discovered that when my parents offered to help me pay for college, what they really meant is they would get the forms for me to apply for student loans. FML
Today, I was offered a job that pays far more than I expected, being a high school senior. My parents decided they aren't letting me take the job, saying I should enjoy my childhood. They're also not paying for my college, which is why I was looking for work in the first place. FML
Today, I was accepted to college and received a scholarship equal to almost half the tuition. After sharing this news with my parents, I spent the next 35 minutes getting yelled at about how I wasn't allowed to go there because my boyfriend might go there. FML
Today, I finally got the nerve to tell my parents that I'm no longer going to pay them a flat percent of my salary, but only what they need to cover my expenses. Their response: "Better find a place of your own then, you freeloading bastard." FML
Today, I found out that not only does my sister consider Fox News "reliable" but her husband has been buying Trump merchandise. They owe me $1,900 but they're literally giving a millionaire money instead of me. FML
Today, I told my conservative friends over dinner that I was a bit of a liberal. They then went off on me about how liberals are lazy, stupid, and a financial burden on society. I was the only employed person at the table with a college degree and not living with my parents. FML
Today, I discovered my parents have spent my college fund because "2012 will happen" before I graduate. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Going to college doesn't make you liberal, it makes you smarter and more prepared in the world. Your parents are really ignorant

Fox are idiots, they just implied that Liberal people are highly educated. They're right for once; their right wing nazi-fest is for retards.

for those of saying this and that about fox news choosing sides well they are neither they just tell the news with no biased or prejudiced reports and btw for most of you stop taking every little thing and turn it into a political battle if you didn't you could have a lot more friends and get farther by not worrying about

no, higher education makes you smart, the being liberal thing is just a side-effect of that

I'd have to agree though.. higher education would more than likely make you more liberal

please, all you people who say obama 'sucks' or isnt 'qualified' are all just sore loser republicans. stop bitching just cuz you lost the election. obama isnt hitler or something. he isnt some 'anti-american muslim terrorist'. regarding the post, fox IS conservative. CNN just doesnt say that obama is satan like fox does. if you want to call them liberal fine.

Ok wait you know what you guys are all blaming each other I'm Australian and you all sound like a bunch of airheads you can't blame one person for starting a war, frankly Obama is still running your country whenever a new leader gets elected you blame them for all your problems it's not easy running a ******* country I personally believe half of you airheads wouldn't be able to run a sim city and your blaming this man for all your problems. Maybe most of you guys should get off your lazy asses and vote if you wanted a different leader.

if you say fox news isn't biased, you've obviously never watched it.
