Today, my dad learned how to use the parental controls. I now have an 11 o'clock curfew. I am 17. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I'm a 22 year-old guy with a 11:00 pm curfew. FML
Today, my mom left me at home with a babysitter. I'm 17. FML
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
Do as you're told
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
Judge and jury
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
Sounds like a cult
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.

When I was 17, my curfew was 11 o'clock, too. Get over it.

And you never argued, tried to compromise, or wanted to stay out later?

People should read the comments posted on here... The OP meant their dad put an 11 o'clock curfew on the computer...

If OP goes to high school, they shouldn't be doing pointless crap on the computer after 11 anyhow. It is our job to get an education, and we should act professionally, meaning we don't disrespect our teachers by falling asleep in class.

You do realize most homework is done on the computer now right? I'm just finishing freshman year of college, but for the past 3 years (junior and senior in high school plus this year) I've done NOTHING on paper. My teachers wouldn't even accept it if I did.

parents have the allusion of control most of the time we listen but if they say be in bed by 11, and your not, wtf are they gonna do? beat you? thats child abuse. i mean i listen to mine most of the time, cuz they are nice but really . its silly to think you have control over somoene if you cant : hurt them in anway, the most they can do is kick you out. but hey even then. but wtv im just tired so that didnt make any sens

Corporal punishment isn't a crime, at least not where I live.

At 17? That's a bit too old to bend your kids over and spank them, don't you think? I graduated at 17... And I dated someone in the grade below me who still got spanked... His dad was verbally abusive, to both of us actually, and my bf had no confidence and refused to go out and do stuff because of it.

No... no it's not. "Parental controls." He's taking about the computer or TV (not sure which.) 11 o'clock curfew for under 18s doesn't apply here, and incidentallythat law isn't the same everywhere anyway.
