Today, my parents took my laptop, cut the Internet, took my car keys and TV, and removed my bedroom door. Why? Because they thought the plant I was growing for my science project was a marijuana plant. Oh yeah, they took that too. My presentation is tomorrow. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my mom found my weed stash and went berserk, grounding me and saying she's going to have my bedroom door removed. Less than an hour later, I found her laughing and smoking the same stash with my dad in the backyard. FML
Today, I got home from a hard day and sent a project due tomorrow from my laptop. While I was in the bathroom, my parents took my laptop, which is all paid by me for no reason. I tried telling them multiple times that I have 3 projects due this week, but they said that's not a reason to stay on my laptop. 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
Today, my parents yelled at me for 10 minutes without letting me get a word in edgeways for getting a 48 on my test. They took my phone, unplugged my internet, and took my car keys. They wouldn't listen no matter how many times I told them, "It was out of 50". It actually was. FML
Today, my thieving, layabout stepmom planted weed in my bedroom and showed my dad. Well, maybe I'm jumping to conclusions here, but her smirk and telling me later that I shouldn't fuck with her again seems conclusive to me. Goodbye freedom. FML
Today, my parents gave me an iPhone. They then checked my grades online, and promptly took it away. 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 friend went to go pick up some weed from her dealer. That same day her parents were searching her room, so guess who posted it through my letterbox so their parents wouldn’t find it. Unfortunately, my very religious parents found it and now think I'm being directed by Satan. FML
Today, my little sister got mad at me because I wouldn't let her read my IM conversation. I took a nap and when I woke up, my laptop was gone. She took it on a trip to her grandparents' house, six hours away. Nude pictures of me and my paper due tomorrow are on the laptop. FML
Today, my parents grounded me for finding their stash of weed. The irony is killing me right now. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

You should change you experiment to show how parents can go from zero to full retardation in about an hour. Will Smith had it right. Parents just don't understand.

So what kind of plant was it?

FYL if you told them and they didn't believe you YDI if you didn't try to explain

Why would they NOT explain... But if his parents are convinced it was weed, they wouldn't allow themselves to be convinced otherwise.

The FML has to start with "Today," and end with "FML." It did not necessarily take place today.

Get your teacher to talk to your parents about the plant. Then you write down their credit card number, front and back, and go nuts online.

Was the plant in your closet or something, as part of the experiment? Cause then I could understand their overreaction. If not, why the hell would they think you'd put a marijuana plant in their plain sight?

Yeah, no offence but if you're old enough to drive by yourself I'm gonna assume you're between 16-18. and um...I think that's a little too old for grounding, especially for something you didn't even do wrong. So...YDI for putting up with this at your age. I wouldn't.

I hope my children don't grow up like you then...

So what punishment should they get if they WERE growing, selling, and smoking weed, all in their parents' house?

Yeah if you're old enough to drive I'm gonna assume you're between 16-18 which no offence is a little too old for grounding, especially to this extreme when you did nothing wrong anyways soooo....you kinda deserve it if you're gonna put up with this.

Most parents I've met have reserved the role of dictator in their household. Even a 23 year old kid that went to college and came back to stay for a few days can still be grounded and have stuff taken.
