Today, my parents grounded me and took away my phone, iPod and door. That's right, my door. They think that because I was stumbling and couldn't walk straight last night, I must have been out drinking. They know I suffer from chronic vertigo, but don't believe I was having an attack. FML

Today, while talking to my parents, I dropped an ordinary drinking glass. After I apologized and cleaned the mess, they told me that they had decided that if I couldn't be careful at home, I certainly couldn't be careful on the roads. They took away my keys. I'm 19. FML
Today, I woke up with a hangover from last night. Last night, I snuck out and went to a party at a club. To hide my hangover, I cleaned myself up and walked into the kitchen to get a drink. My mother looked at me and said, "What's that on your wrist?" I'd forgotten I'd left the wristband on from the club. I'm already grounded. FML
Today, my dad got extremely drunk, so I took away his car keys and left on foot. When I came back, I saw that he had broken down my door. Now my dad is mad at me for not giving him the keys when he was drunk, and I'm door-less. FML
Today, my dad came home drunk off his ass. So drunk that he couldn't manage to open the refrigerator, and ended up punching it in a fit of rage. When I tried to calm him down and get him to bed, he told me to fuck off, and grounded me. FML
Today, I was running to my car, slipped, and slammed my head on the car door. I started driving to the hospital because it was bleeding profusely and I was dizzy, I called my mom to tell her what had happened. She said I was grounded for "goofing off" and that she was "sick of my shit". FML
Today, my parents tried to apologize for wrongly grounding me. I told them to go fuck themselves, so now I'm re-grounded. FML
Today, my parents woke me up and grounded me for the "disrespectful" things I said to them in my sleep. Apparently I say these things every night, and each time I do they extend the grounding. FML
Today, my parents yelled at me for coming home drunk from a party last night. They said I couldn't hang out with my best friend anymore as he's a "bad influence". He was the only one sober in our group and drove me home safely. FML
Today, my parents accused me of being secretive. I have no idea what they're talking about; all I do is work, go to school, sleep, and eat. Now I'm grounded until I tell them what's going on. I have crazy parents, that's what's going on. 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

I feel for you OP. My mum always took my door off, the problem was that I wouldn't even know why she would take the door and not something more valuable. Many a time I thought about taking her bedroom door off and holding it for ransom.

she was probably trying to teach you a lesson by "taking away your privacy".

There's a specific list of things they took. It doesn't include computers or laptops. Or local libraries.

It's the worst punishment. When I was little, I pitched a fit anytime my parents removed my door.

71: that's gross af. your own brother hitting on you?... that's a problem.

That is really disgusting and you should talk to your parents about that. They need to sit down with your brother and explain how wrong that is. If you have no door at all though, and you know your family always walks past your room, why wouldnt you just get changed in the washroom?

100 - Depending on how large the family is and how much time everyone takes, that may not be an option.

Yes it is...just wait by the door for someone to come out and go in with your clothes. I grew up with a family of 7, with one washroom. When I was younger I had to share a room so I always got changed in the washroom because I hated worrying that someone could come just come in at any time. Even though there could only be one washroom, theres no way she never has a chance to use it. She could get changed in there when she has a shower, or when she wakes up and uses the bathroom the first time in the morning. It's not like she doesn't have any chance, she just doesn't seem to take it which is what I don't understand. If you had a creepy brother who hit on you when you got changed would you keep changing in your room, or find any way to change behind a closed door?

161 - I grew up with a family of seven as well and shared a room with my younger sister. While we had two bathrooms rather than one, there was still never any time to do anything in the bathroom. Everything I did in the morning had to be done in my room; if OP's situation is like mine, without a door it would be hard to get everything done in private. I resorted to showering in the evening because I could never get one in before school or whatever else I had to do in the morning. She could go into another family member's room, (that has a door) to change, but there are still problems that can arise with that. I usually waited for my sister to leave the room and got changed quickly, or I got changed under the covers if I really had to.

based on how fat u are in that pic I highly doubt ur brother is hitting on u

183 - Buddy, just because someone may have a few pounds to lose doesn't mean they're unattractive. Everyone has different tastes; that's her brother's prerogative if he wants to lust after his sister.

for the record, drinking does not relieve vertigo? ask doc
dgr8ing 0
that's because vertigo is caused by stress.

Once my parents gave me this exact punishment when I was 11, because I hung up on my mom.
