Today, my parents confiscated my iPod, because the parents' group they go to came to the conclusion that music is a gateway to anti-social behavior. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. FML
Today, my parents told me off for reading, as opposed to watching TV like the rest of the family, because it was "anti-social". FML
Today, I found out that the only reason my parents have been letting me hang out with my friends so late is so they can search my room for drugs. FML
Today, my parents canceled the Internet at our house because they view it as a "passing fad." FML
Today, I had to be the responsible adult and take my parents' phones away. Most of their time is spent on social media and low-quality brainrot. FML
Today, I accidentally left some music playing on my iPad, then left to do some errands. When I came back, I found it smashed into a million pieces. Apparently, grandpa couldn't find any other way to "shut off that goddamn music." FML
Today, my parents grounded me and took away my phone, iPod and door. That's right, my door. They think that because I was stumbling and couldn't walk straight last night, I must have been out drinking. They know I suffer from chronic vertigo, but don't believe I was having an attack. FML
Today, my mum dismissed my diagnosed schizophrenia as "too much time with those earphones in". FML
Today, my parents yelled at me for coming home drunk from a party last night. They said I couldn't hang out with my best friend anymore as he's a "bad influence". He was the only one sober in our group and drove me home safely. FML
Today, my parents took away my laptop, TV, Xbox, and car all because I broke up with my girlfriend. They said when I patch things up with her, I can have my stuff back. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

anti-social? ...yea, that's why crowds in the thousands go to concerts, and why friends crank their favorite songs in the car and sing along with it... i'd vote fyl, but i think i feel worse for your parents... for being gullible, ignorant twits. so... f your parents' lives.

Parents can be so idiotic. Fyl OP, I would hate to get my music taken away. At least you can sing in the shower or something. It's better than nothing (:

Only emo music leads to anti-social behaviour.

they told my parents that too. i told my parents they'd have to take me to court if they want my iPod or I'd have to die first and i said it to the point where they believe me and they left me alone. I'm sorry. that sucks.

you are what's wrong with your generation.

#89 That's kind of a sweeping generalization...Not everyone from that generation is materialistic and sue-happy.

sighhhh, anti-social does not mean that a person doesn't like to be around people, or is shy. it means that they hate people and want to kill them. which i guess could be kind of true (that music influences you to be anti-social) , if it's laced with extremely violent and subliminal messages. so maybe you were showing violent behavior or maybe you just have kooky parents.

That really depends on what his parents meant by anti-sociality. If it was the actual disorder, then I suppose that it could be wanting to kill people, but if it's more of a sociopathic definition, then it's just more about not being social. I don't know, but either way FYL

Hatred for humanity is called misanthropy, not being antisocial.
