Get on with it
Today, my mom demanded that I go into the basement and fix the water heater. I told her that I had no idea how to fix it, so she threw my phone down the stairs, told me to Google it, and locked the basement door behind me. It's been two hours. FML

Some parents... how the **** are you supposed to know the problem? how in the blue hell are you supposed to fix it? She wants to turn you into an emergency plumber?.. wickedness. At least did she give you a 3D printer to print out the required tools?

Yes, this is definitely abusive and illegal. Call 911.

I agree with this, this is not right, OP's mother shouldn't be locking them in the basement.

I was searching for this comment. I cannot believe it took this long. Seriously, do most people see this as ok???

Took the words out of my mouth. That is incredibly illegal and she should not be trusted with children. OP I'm sorry your mom is batsh!t insane. You should go live with a relative.

Call child services. That's no way to treat your kid.

Google silence of the lambs while you are down there my friend. You may want to "apply the lotion" before she hits you with some water...

What the abusive ****!? Mother or not, I'd get her done for it - that's unlawful detention, that is!

Find out how to turn the water off.

She should seek help, she's clearly mentally unstable.

You got a phone. Call for help. And a plumber.

Call the cops and tell them you're being held prisoner in a crazy woman's basement.
