Today, instead of having my friends come pick me up, my dad drove me over to visit them. He insisted on walking me up to the door, hugging me goodbye, and making sure my friends were appropriate enough to hang out with. I'm in college. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad refused to pick me up because he didn't want to get off the couch, so I had to walk for an hour and a half to get home. When I finally got home, my dad had gone out to pick my sister up from her friend's house. Her friend lives a 3-minute walk away. FML
Today, I went to a concert with a friend of mine. When his dad came to pick him up, I walked towards the car, expecting a ride. His dad told me he didn't have time to drive me home. I'm his neighbour. FML
Today, in front of a bunch of people on my college campus, my mom grabbed my hand and lead me across the street. I'm 20. FML
Today, I had to pick up my dad because he was too drunk to drive home. Drive his wheelchair home, that is. FML
Today, my dad came to pick me up. It would have been nicer if he'd had his clothes on. FML
Today, I got home from college. Since I haven't seen my parents in almost a year, I sorta expected them to come meet me/pick me up at the airport. Nope. What did I get instead? A text from my dad saying, "I hope you have a key." FML
Today, my mom walked me to school to make sure I don't cut class. I'm 20 years old. FML
Today, my friend and I were getting picked up by his dad after a carnival. As I put my stuff in the back of the car and shut the door to walk around to get in the other side, his dad drove off, thinking I was in the car, leaving me to walk up their hill. It was midnight and I ended up lost. FML
Today, my father was helping me move into college. When we arrived, the students helping people move in mistook me for one of the parents. I’m 19. FML
Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. FML

He doesn't want you hanging out with the wrong crowd OP

I'll bet it got kinda creepy when he insisted on hugging all of your friends, too.

Today, My father made sure I wasn't going to be in the presence of bad influences, who little-would-I-know, could slowly press me to let my entire life deteriorate. FML OP, at least your father cares about you. Some people's father's beat them, leave them, don't care about them, or hate them. Be grateful your dad LOVES YOU enough to do something like that even though you'll take it as effing your life.

It's so horrible having a dad who cares.

I accidentally thumbed down this, but agree. Try having parents who don't care and that grass will stop looking so green pretty quick.

Oh my then. You're absolutely an adult who can make your own decisions... I wish I could post the sarcastic/condescending wonka meme...

Sounds like my dad. Except it's with boys and he insists on stealing the Bill Engvall stand up line "I have no problem going back to prison." Now that's annoying. And unnecessary.

I had wondered where my uncle got that! Now I know.

Yes, how awful . . . someone cares about you . . . how will you ever cope with such a tragedy?

I am possibly being very naive but I thought you were married Noor?

Sounds like what my children will be dealing with in the future. I know the dumb stuff my friends and I did. I still tell my parents I love them every time we talk.
