Today, I turned 17. My parents completely forgot it was my birthday, and when I reminded them, my dad thought it was my 18th. He was ecstatic and mentioned that I can "finally get the hell out." FML

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

Today, my dad took my phone away. This would be fine if I was 14. I'm 22 and pay for all of my own bills. FML

Today, I got a computer. When I opened it, I found out that my dad had made himself the administrator. He made it so everything shut off after 11 o'clock, and made it so I couldn't download anything without his password. FML

Today, my parents forced me to do chores. I worked extra slow to rebel against their tyranny. My dad then said I'm not allowed to get my learner's permit for another six months and took away my phone. FML

Today, my mom decided it was a good idea to put a camera in my room so I could be watched at all times, to make sure I'm behaving. I'm 14. 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 realized that my 14 year-old runs my home. She has her own room, while her 11 year-old sister and I (her mother) share a room. I literally have to get her permission to go anywhere as well. FML

Did you guys read the first line about parental controls? The 11PM curfew is on the computer, not for staying out. (And is kind of ridiculous btw.) Chillax people.

You have a legitimate complaint, #5, but OP is still a minor and can complain as loud as they want and it won't matter. Minor's have no rights in our society. Bummer.

You're 17, get over it. Here's the deal: until you get your own place, whatever your parents say goes. His house, his rules. And don't bitch that it "isn't fair." Cause it is. You're not paying rent, I'll assume. And I doubt you're paying for anything else. So, yeah. Until you start contributing, it is fair for your dad to set a curfew or any other rules he may deem necessary.

You little speech is exactly why teenagers rebel and generally don't give a f*ck what their parents say and do they things they want with or without their parents permission. If there was some leeway or compromising there, I would be different.

Well I'm 19, I DO pay rent, and my curfew is ten pm. Plus I'm only allowed to go out a few times a week because I have a ton of chores to do, and I have to be home at 6 every day to feed and walk my mother's dog. So how is that fair?

That's fair. You live with your mom, and so it's only fair that since your 19 to pay, do chores and have a curfew.

You'll get the last laugh when you go off to college and over compensate by staying out all night doing debaucherous things because you were too restricted at home. There's something to be said for a little bit of leeway to let a kid learn responsibility before dumping them in the shark tank when they turn 18.

MCart, that is so true. I know this kid with really strict parents. He's really polite and quiet at home, but he's a douche bag at school. When a kid can't do anything with their parents around, they release all their frustration and energy later in life.

I happen to have an 11 o'clock curfew and I'm 18, I also rarely get out of work before 9 pm

No, we're saying it because she's still a child, living under her father's roof. I have no sympathy for a 17-year-old brat who thinks she needs to stay out all night. I never stayed out late until I turned 18 (aka, legal adult) and graduated high school.

I hate comments like "still a child", children are 12 and below. There is a coming of age process known as being a teenager. A child doesn't have a 1 year to decide what they are going to do with their lives, a child can't drive, or get a job.

Calm your **** with this "I'M PRETTY MUCH AN ADULT" shit. I was done with that when I was 12. I'm 16 and I understand that a curfew makes a lot of sense. Grow up, bro.

I agree but we don't need to be calling them names like brat. kids don't respond to anger they are more receptive to compassionate criticism

I disagree with all the angry comments. If you didn't go out until you were a legal adult, that was your choice. In a lot of places, the nightlife doesn't really get started until later. A lot of my friends go out to dinner at 10 but I can't go because I have an 11 PM curfew too. It sucks. Of course there are worse things, there always are, but it's still frustrating.
