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

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, my mom took my phone away because of a huge mistake I made, which we need to go to court for. I own the actual phone but they pay for the line. I'm autistic with severe anxiety. I'm also 34 years-old. FML

Today, I was involved in an intense argument with my dad. Just as I yelled, "You haven't done one thing for me", my phone rang. The same phone that, as of today, my dad no longer pays the bill for. 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 mobile phone wouldn't turn on. I took it in to the phone store, but they won't fix or replace it because the account is in my dad's name, not mine. He's abroad for the next month, and the only way to get a hold of him is on a number I only stored on my phone. FML

Today, my dad took my phone away because I "had to be texting while driving in order to wreck my car." I was too ashamed to tell him that a huge bug flew into my face causing me to veer off the road and into a brick mailbox. FML

Blame game
Today, my dad tried to blame me for ringing an out of network number for two hours, which charged his bill by the minute. I rang the number, which turned out to belong to one of his business pals who lives abroad. He punished me anyway for having an attitude when I proved the call was his fault. FML

I say if you are living on your own call the police and report the phone as stolen, it is theft and your dad is an overprotective nut job. If you are living at home then I would have to agree with the some of the other people on here and say get your own place, as long as you live with your parents you live by their rules. Sorry.

Your 22, you can always move out.

How is it that your father can take away your phone? Do you live at home? Is the phone in his name? If either of those are true, you don't pay your own bills, regardless of what you think.

To everyone saying that 22 is "too old" to be living at one's parents house...Try paying for rent while you're in college. Or simply try paying for rent when you can only get a minimum wage job, and likely a part-time one at that. I don't get why some people seem to think that once you're an adult, an income that you can easily live on just magically appears. Sometimes, even when you have a job, it's just not enough to pay for rent, food, car insurance, and various other bills. I moved out of my mom's house when I was 21. I currently have two jobs, but paying for everything is still near impossible.

If I can do it, u can do it. Try not having mommy and daddy to "fall back on" when life ***** you. If you're an ADULT you figure it out. Work 3-4 jobs like I have done when times get tough. Apparently you're not as grown as u think u are.

#103 Don't be so mean. I don't live with my mother anymore and I AM supporting myself. Perhaps you're not as grown as you think you are, since you feel the need to insult people on the FML comments.
