Today, I am currently grounded for three weeks, have no car, cell phone, or television privileges, and am not allowed to spend more than 10 minutes on the computer a day. The reason why: I was seven minutes past my 9'oclock curfew. I'm 18. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was grounded for not agreeing with an article on dating my mom found in a very strict magazine. The article told parents to monitor phone calls, make rumors about their children cheating on people, and not allow their children anywhere but home. FML
Today, I turned 18 and I’m now subject to adult discipline. My dad says I will no longer be grounded or have my phone taken away, but I have three strikes and if I get to three, he’s throwing me out to get my own house. He then gave me my first strike because I was 30 minutes late picking up my nana. FML
Today, I'm a 22 year-old guy with a 11:00 pm curfew. FML
Today, my dad learned how to use the parental controls. I now have an 11 o'clock curfew. I am 17. FML
Today, my mom scolded me and threatened to ground me for coming home past midnight. Normally, it wouldn't be unreasonable, except for the fact that I'm 24 years-old, and that my parents live with me, in my own house. FML
Today, my mum took away my laptop and my phone and won't let me call, text, or go out with friends for one month. Why? I left the toilet seat up. I'm writing this from a public library. FML
Today, I was given a call home, a 3-day-suspension, and a week of detention in school for a "serious violation of the code of conduct." Said violation? Jogging in the middle of the hall. FML
Today, I was grounded by my mom because I had slept in past 11, when she wanted me to wake up at seven to do chores. According to her logic, I should have seen the note she left on the counter earlier this morning. FML
Today, I told my mom about the couple of times that I'd skipped classes during high school. She got really mad and grounded me for a month. That would usually be normal except for the fact that I'm 27 and live in my own apartment. FML
Today, I'm grounded for literally the whole summer because my parents found out that I was still seeing my grandma behind their backs, even though they banned her from ever seeing us again after she spanked my sister. FML

wow. your parents are punishing you for not moving out even though you're 18. they're ready for you to leave already. they've probably been trying to get you to run away for the last few years. take the hint buddy.

I'll tell u what's wrong here...ur 13 and ur parents "don't give a shit". I guarentee OP's parents at least care about where they are and what they're doing...even if it's a bit over the top. Turning 18 only legally makes one an adult. You don't instantly become mature the minute you fur. 18. For instance, if you are 18 and live with ur parents, there's a reason.

"if you're eighteen and live with your parents, there's a reason" but did it occur to you that the reason might be that an eighteen year old could be in high school or university and couldn't live away from home? i'm 19 and i have no other option but to live with my parents, despite the fact that it takes me two and a half hours each way travelling to my uni, because as a full time student, i can't work enough hours to support myself without it severely affecting my studies, but i can't get money any other way - my parents don't have enough money to pay for me to move out, yet they have too much money for me to be eligible for any kind of government assistance (where i live i would not be considered independent unless i was married over a year or had a child, even if i lived in another state, so all their income & assets are included in means testing), and i can't get any kind of scholarship from my uni, as they are only available to people who get financial assistance from the government! i don't know how these things work in kansas but the op could be in a similar situation. personally, i think that moving away from home and needing to work so many hours that your studies (and potentially your future) would be affected simply to get away from strict parents isn't really a mature way to act - to me it seems like a pretty irresponsible decision.

Just do whatever the **** you want. You're 18, they can't physically make you do anything.
