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.
Same thing different taste
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
Today, I found out my dad bought an iPhone. I've spent the better part of the last six months teaching him how to check his email and online newspapers. 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
Etiquette
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
Memory man
Today, my dad let me use his phone. Five minutes later, he had my mom call it because he thought he'd lost it. FML
Today, I found out that my mom has linked my iPhone with her iPad and has been secretly reading my texts. FML
Today, my teenage daughter faked a suicide because I bought her a Samsung instead of an iPhone for her birthday. FML
Today, I graduated from college and my parents gave me an apple. Not the computer, the fruit. 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.

What? I love mine! Can't live without it. (: The OP just needs to study harder to look forward to his/her gift back. Sounds like an ass move on the parents' part because their gift shouldn't have condition that weren't looked into before OP's gift purchase.

So..waving a $10 bill in front of a homeless person's face once, is the same as giving a kid a several hundred dollar phone with a basic $95 a month plan..when that Broken Condom can't even do what's expected of offspring, and pass standard classes?

Your parents are willing to GIVE you a 400 dollar phone while you can't even be bothered to keep your grades up? YDI, spoiled brat.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Stop your bitching and WORK for things, OP. I've been working for just about everything I have right now since I was 16. And if I had a low grade in school, my parents did a whole hell of a lot more than take away a phone...

Agreed. All I got for christmas was ******* perfume from my sister. My parents didn't even get me anything and I have a 4.1 GPA. Quit your bitching and get back to work.

I love how the only two ways to get bad grades is to have a learning disability or to be lazy. -_- not everybody can easily get good grade, whether it be it that he can't get the help he needs or he has terrible teachers. Sometimes it's the teacher's fault: sometimes it's the students. They should have checked your grades beforehand so that they didn't have to do that -.-
