Today, my parents decided to finally kick me out of the house because they've gotten tired of seeing me "sleep around all day and being so lazy" whenever I'm home. I'm currently triple-shifting for 6 days a week. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I moved out of my parents' house and started living alone. All of a sudden, my parents started requiring me to text or call them every 5 minutes to tell them where I am and what I'm doing, from 6am to 12am every day. If I don't, they will go looking for me, and force me to move back in with them. FML
Today, I got fired from my job. I worked for my parents. FML
Today, my parents have separated. I stayed with them, living at home far too long for my own comfort, just to help them keep it together after they lost their remaining parents. Literally the month after I moved out, they decided it wasn't worth it. I now suspect they stayed together only because I still lived at home. FML
Today, I live in the basement and as far as I can tell, my parents spend every day rearranging the furniture upstairs and slamming every door in the house, all day long. If I complain or even mention the noise, they threaten to kick me out onto the streets. I’m not even old enough to move out. 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 moved back in with my parents in order to help them with the mortgage, so they don't lose the house that has been in our family for three generations. I also found out that I now have a curfew, and so does my husband and our 3 year old son. FML
Today, as usual, my parents hate to see me relax. Every time I'm not working, doing a sport, or doing chores, I must be working on some form of education to keep them at bay. Today, I had the day off and caught up on schoolwork. My parents woke me up at 6 AM by running the vacuum outside my door. "Go mow the lawn, you slob." FML
Today, my mom got drunk and told me to leave the house because "I've been mooching off her for too long". I'm 14 and now am sleeping at my friends house. FML
Today, I visited my dad. He gave the, "You live under my roof, you follow my rules" lecture since I didn't do my "chores". I moved out 3 years ago. FML
Today, my parents threw a hissy fit calling me ungrateful and disrespectful for wanting to do laundry and clean at home, instead of going out to their friends' house for dinner. They also disconnected the Internet to punish me when they left. I'm 20 and visiting home on a college break. FML

It's like people only read the first part of comments. I don't see why 47 was downvoted.

I find this very hard to believe so correct me if I'm wrong but it sounded like op said the work literally 6 days a week before they get one day off because a shift is 8 hrs they work 3 shifts which means they work 24hr days for 6 of 7 weeks who is this person God. Is op creating worlds with the 7 day for rest. Is this the even newer testament where we prequel to gods parents and his life story. But again I may have read this wrong. Don't think I did but. I am not this person I am human and can make mistakes.

Hahahahahahaha... This seems incredibly familiar. Hopefully you have some mates that won't mind helping you out until you get on your feet! Good luck!

If you're "triple-shifting", when exactly are they able to see you sleeping? Some one is making something up.

She probably works night shifts and only has time to sleep in the day.

That would make sense if OP said "double". Maybe it's me, but a triple means they would never be home anyway, to be seen sleeping or to feel the ill effects of being homeless. Maybe we'll get a follow-up?

That's a weird way of showing they care.. Hopefully you can work something out or have a friend who you can turn to

My parents had that same mindset, I just moved out and got my own place instead of dealing with it.
