Today, I opened my Christmas present from my parents. I got a road-side assistance package. I don't own a vehicle, and I don't even have a driver's license. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I unwrapped my present and, to my surprise, I had gotten a repair manual for my truck. Apparently, my parents are "Tired of seeing that piece of shit in front of our house." FML
Today, my dad got me a GPS for my birthday. I appreciate the sentiment, but I don't have a permit or a car. FML
Today, on Christmas Eve, as I was getting my car loaded for the holiday rounds to the in-laws and parents, my car decided now was the time to break down. I recently put in over $1000 fixing it. FML
Today, my parents said that they bought me a car. I had been begging for one for a year and they always said that I would have to pay for it myself. I got really excited and went to the garage to see my new ride. It was a Hot Wheels car with a note saying, "Save your money". FML
Today, it was my 16th birthday. My surprise was a new car, that is now in the side of the garage because my mom lost control while driving it around front. FML
Today, I just bought a car with all of my own money. Then, when I brought it home my dad informed me that my mom will be driving it to work every day. FML
Today, I financed my first car. I also made my first call to AAA when it broke down. It barely had any miles on it and I wasn't even home yet. FML
Today, I got woken up by my parents telling me I had to go buy a car so they could have transportation. Neither of their cars work, so I was letting them use mine, and then they wrecked it. It needs nearly a thousand bucks in repairs to be drivable again, but since it was my car, I have to replace it now to appease them. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket in the mail. I don't have a car. FML
Today, I'm so broke, I asked my parents if they'd pay for me to go to the eye doctor and consider it my Christmas present. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think it's a sign to get a car and a license

Well now that you have the road side assistance package, the only logical thing to do is get a license and go get a vehicle! Come on OP, think of all the money you'll save since your parents already got you the road-side assistance package...

You should be glad your parents think for your future.

Lol. Or it could be a hint!

The roadside assistance package will likely run out before OP has a car or licence. It's a completely stupid present if they honestly want to help with the future.

No, it's just one of those presents: "Oh, you don't like it? Well I guess I'll have to take it then…"

OP is 12 and what is this? Just a reference, guys, chill out, slow down on the downvotes, I know that we don't know OP's age.

That's a pretty ugly hand you got there.

A better hint would have been driving lessons.

Except it'll probably run out before OP has a car or licence.

Or they are intending to buy a car if you will only get your license

Wrong person maybe?

That seems rather unlikely, don't you think?

You never know. Maybe OP was supposed to get a vibrator for Christmas, but the giver screwed up and gave it to their mom. That leaves OP with the roadside equipment thing.

Maybe they thinking you should get a license and a vehicle and planning ahead

And you think your parents would know that

I would hope so.

Maybe they're thinking of buying you a car, or they think you need to hurry up and start driving.

That must have driven you insane.

I bet OP broke down in tears, their parents could've steered clear of this disappointment! I guess wheel never know what happened after they got that lousy present
