His house, his rules?
Today, it’s been a week since my dad has decided I’m only allowed to sleep with my door open. Guess how long it’s been since I’ve slept. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, it's been a week since my dad told me I’m no longer allowed to put my phone on do not disturb when I sleep, and a scam caller woke me up at 7 am. I’ve had a serious migraine ever since because waking up early triggers my migraines. FML
Today, I told my dad to go to the doctor, as he’s been hacking his lungs up every minute for a month, and I've not had a decent night’s sleep since then. He insists he’s not sick, and my mom yelled at me because she sleeps in the same room and is able to sleep through it. FML
Today, I'm on my 20th consecutive night without decent sleep, ever since circumstances forced me to move back to my parents' bungalow, and my dad's thunderous snoring keeping me awake. FML
Today, and for the past week, I've been incredibly on edge because apparently my dad is kicking me out but I don't know when, and my mom has told me I'm not allowed to tell anyone. She then got mad at me because I did. FML
Today, my dad decided that he shouldn't have to wear clothes in the privacy of his own home. FML
Today, I watched as my step-dad put locks on my window, because he's convinced that I've been sneaking out at night. All my mom did was casually remark that I'm fucked if there's ever a fire. FML
Today, my overprotective dad bolted all of my windows shut so that I don't turn out like my sister and sneak out or sneak boys in. FML
Today, it's been about two months since I made my husband sleep in the spare room after an argument. I invited him back to our room after two nights but he refused. Since then he’s moved a TV, Xbox, fridge and new armchair into the spare room, and put a lock on the door only he has a key for. I’ve barely seen him. FML
Today, I got yelled at by my dad again for being inside so much instead of outside doing stuff. We are still in a lockdown and are not allowed to leave the house unless its for work or to go to the store. FML
Today, my dad walked in on me using the bathroom. After rushing out, he yelled at me through the door for not locking it. He made up the "no locking the doors inside the house" rule. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Is he a creepy creep? WTF, how old are you that he thinks you need to sleep with your door open? I lock my door when I'm going to bed. If you feel unsafe, tell someone at school or a trusted adult. You should be getting more privacy as you get older, not less. WTF does he think you're doing while sleeping? If he's worried, take your phone and electronics at night. Idk, I never grew up with my dad, so I'd be creeped out having to sleep with my door open and people having access to me while I'm unconscious. People love playing tricks on others when they can't defend themselves. Plus every sound someone makes wakes you up. Nah, who cares what you do with your body in the privacy of your own room? As long as you aren't bringing someone else into there or sneaking out or doing drugs or something. I like sleeping naked or close to it. My door stays locked as I tend to randomly take stuff off in my sleep or while I'm half awake, haha. I know he pays the bills and what not, but people deserve some privacy too.

go and wake him up every night at 3am telling him you cant sleep with your door open (light? noise? whatever) if you cant sleep due to him, he should be involved in the consequences

i feel we are missing critical info as it wasnt always like this. Are you underage and had sex with someone? (the only thing i can think of) but if i was in your position i would be constantly naked in my room, if you hear him come start jerking off and thats surely enough to make him uncomfortable and never wanting to see that again if not your dad is very wierd and hopefully and can go somewhere safer

Wait until he goes to sleep and then close the damn door. That's ridiculous.
