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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

ydi for having sex that young. your parents are absolutely right for doing that to you. I'm 23, so no, I'm not your parents or any of your parents friends. but I'm so sick of the teens nowadays thinking they can have sex with no consequences. it's people like you who add to the problems with societey today.

He didn't say ANYTHING about having sex. You must have the wrong FML.

Obviously you're sexually frustrated and can't stand the idea that someone else might be getting some. (The OP didn't even imply they were, btw). Please, for the sake of everyone on the internet... Get laid.

i don't see where you are getting this sex business from, but an 18 year old is not exactly a child who can't make a responsible decision (despite what the OP's parents think!). i don't like the idea of "teenagers" having sex either, but i don't think 18 really counts! maybe if they were like fourteen your concerns would be valid but seriously.

Everyone is quick to yell "move out!", but I'd like to suggest something else. Times are kind of tough, and living with your parents is a sweet deal that is usually only appreciated once you've moved out and have to spend all your time working up rent money. How about not breaking any of their rules, and trying to negociate a later curfew by proving you're responsible? If they continue to punish you and refuse to trust you, then (and only then) I would move out.

Wow your parents are way too overprotective and strict. They have major issues.

That might be true... Or maybe this person has a reputation of getting into trouble and therefore their parents don't trust them. Awesome username btw.
