Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, my history teacher confiscated my iPhone. She dropped it on the way back to her desk, and I now have a shattered iPhone screen to fix. FML

Today, my parents yelled at me for 10 minutes without letting me get a word in edgeways for getting a 48 on my test. They took my phone, unplugged my internet, and took my car keys. They wouldn't listen no matter how many times I told them, "It was out of 50". It actually was. FML

My precious
Today, my new iPhone was stolen from my school locker. After canceling my service, sobbing, having my mom yell at the secretary for their lack of security and finally agreeing to change to a private school, I found it in the corner of my locker. FML

Do as you're told
Today, my parents forced me to do chores. I worked extra slow to rebel against their tyranny. My dad then said I'm not allowed to get my learner's permit for another six months and took away my phone. FML

Today, I had to be the responsible adult and take my parents' phones away. Most of their time is spent on social media and low-quality brainrot. FML

Damn, man I pity this fool who didn't pay attention in school.

13- I have autism and a VERY terrible attention span. On top of that, I can barely remember anything. I walk out of my room and forget where I want to go very often. I still had good grades and excelled despite this. All you have to do is pay attention, stay organized, and try. Just because it isn't easy doesn't make it impossible. OP just sounds lazy.

It's totally fair for a parent to do that. Maybe that wasn't the conditions for the iPhone but op has really freaking awful marks in everything, then they grounded him anyways. His fault if he's so stupid.

that makes no sense. beggers cant choose to be poor, some of them fell on hard times and cant really get another job because of the economy. grades are something we can control, but the OC was obviously to stubborn to fix. ur being a jackass

Don't be a dipshit, get better grades and you'd have the iPhone. Kids are really more retarded each generation. "Oh no! Not my iPhone" that overpriced brick in your hand won't do ya any good when ya flunk out. By then your most used phrase will be, "would you like to super size that for .49"
