such tools.

Sure im grateful for my dad giving my plenty of support to my band and carting my huge amount of gear around to the different venues every 2 weeks, but as soon as I mention a party and about to leave the house, they go mental.

Im almost 20 and my parents have grounded me, because apparently im not spending money on taxis, and if they dont know where I am, it apparently ruins their night. So I said that im going anyway, so they took my key and said if I go I dont get back in.

Somehow I think choosing to live at home this year was a mistake, sure I get out enough with all the gigs we do, but I feel that whilst Im under this roof I cant leave the house at all unless its in the local area, traveling to town for uni or for band practices. Gay.

I am so outta here next summer.
 
You're at uni at home?

See, there's your problem.

Well Im doing first year again, different subjects though, because I basically cocked up last year by pretty going 5 times in the entire year and mainly concentrating on band activities and going to strange places at night getting drunk. So thought I should have another bash at it this year with different subjects, but since that put me in more debt that your average student, I figured I had to save some money by living at home. Shit I know, but it seems necessary under the circumstances.
 
When you grow up, you'll be a strict, overprotective douche to your kids just like your parents.

It'll happen to yoOoooOOOOOuuuUUUUUuuuu....
 
You are 20 and got grounded? Even so, you got grounded overall?

Move to sweden, theres no such thing as "grounded" in our culture, or maybe thats just my family. I can take a piss on my floor and roll around in it and my parents will go "oh how cute".

Yes, but its their fault he exists, he did not create himself, therefore he is not responsible for his own acts, they are merely a results of his parents ****ing, thus hes unlimitied in his acts.


I dont know :rolleyes:
 
Mothers are almost always to bitchier of the 2 parents.
Fathers are just like 'Hey, can I cut off my head with a chainsaw like that guy...?' 'Sure, knock yourself out son...'
 
My parents were, and are pretty cool about going out and having parties. Only grief I ever got (and still to this day get whenever I'm home) is that my mom won't go to sleep until I get home. Not, in the sense that she'll stay up and wait for me, but in the sense that she is too worried to fall asleep. Now that, is a guilt trip. It's also somewhat puzzling with regards to logic, as I don't live at home anymore but she supposedly sleeps just fine every night when I'm several miles away and she has no clue what I'm doing or where I am.
I am in fact, very likely out murdering prostitutes, but the less my mother knows the better.

The world economy is in the sink and you're suggesting people move out and burden themselves with extra expenses that can be avoided by sticking with other peoples? Yeah....Good luck with that.

Pretty much the same. Was more than one time when I'd stumble back home at 4 in the morning and my mother would be awake in our living room, grilling me in my drunken stupor. Then she'd ask "Are you drunk?!", and this is after it had been well-established that my weekend life regularly involved late nights getting pissed at a bar or party. Best way to avoid the whole thing was just giving a late-night update as to what my specific plans were.

Yes.

Or else don't complain.
 
Hahaha. I'm 14 and my parents let me go out the whole time but I have to be back by 12. D:

This is your problem. You're the tool, not your parents. Get a brain and focus on what matters.

Same here.

Wow, even the prostitute part fits.
 
I moved out and I party every night with hot chicks who all want to **** me.

Take it you have never been to uni, because from what I saw thats pretty much all that happens, I just didnt focus on the course I was doing at all because I hated it. Im doing something I like doing this year however. Anyway, to me, my band is all that matters.

He's at uni.

And much more than that happens. It's just all the british kids do that at uni.
 
You're twenty years old. Move the **** out.


You're twenty years old. You can't be grounded anymore.


You're twenty years old. Grow the **** up and stop wasting money on your education if you're not going to go.


You're twenty years old. Your band isnt going anywhere.
 
Sounds to me like the OP is the one who's a tool.

Seriously, you're too old for the teenage angst. Grow up.
 
I've never had any problems with my parents
 
So you ****ed up your first year and landed in a heap of debt because of partying and you're wondering why your parents are grounding you for taking a stab at it again ? ... are you serious ?.
 
What would you have done without them, ejected from your own vagina? I don't think so.
 
You clearly dont know what you are talking about. It has nothing to do with uni. Its because since losing my brother 10 years ago my mum has been stupidly paranoid about what I do. Get your facts right but shouting your mouth off.

I simply cant move out until next year, plus it defeats the reason why I decided to stay at home this year anyway. I did not go in last year because I hated the course, I mean hated to a point of insanity, thats why I changed to something better, try reading peoples posts. And I dont know why being 20 and still being in a band has to do with 'not going anywhere', considering we have only been going for a year, most bands Ive looked at can take up to 6 years to get anywhere.

And finally, Im not 20 until the 21st Jan, since I said, Im almost 20.

Firstly, you didnt explain most of any of that before this post. Neither your brother's death, nor your "reason" for not going to the classes you paid thousands of dollars for. Plus almost twenty is close enough to not matter. You are an adult and acting like a child. It doesnt matter what course you take if you dont change your partying ways. Thats what your parents are trying to get you to do. You sound like you're doing the same thing that ****ed you over last time. The only difference is that now you're doing it with a class you hate slightly less.
 
My parents willingly buy my 16 year old brother booze to take to parties.

Yeah. :p

I ****ed up a year of uni, I'm at home with my parents for a year doing sod all and them I'm gunna give uni another shot next year. I'm also 19 but my parents aren't shit.
I need to get a job and a life because I'm seriously just ****ing everything up.
 
I'm doing awesome in college and my life is great. I'm majoring in pre-law and political science so I can be the biggest douche bag lawyer ever and have bags of money and two silos one filled with chocolate and the other filled with prostitutes.

My wife is going to be a 18 year old gold digger with huge tits and a virgin ****.

I don't care about my family and they don't care about me. My kid is going to grow up to be whatever he ****ing wants to be but it better pay ****ing good.

Complete opposite for me.
 
It was already said in this thread. Their house, their rules. If you don't like it, move out, otherwise deal. Parents are annoying but that's because they're parents.
 
Parents are big ****ing hypocrites. Do as I say, not as I do/did. And I love it.
 
When I have kids, I'm going to teach them that violence is not the answer by beating the living daylight out of them. I'm going to teach them to save their hard earned cash and spend wisely while driving them to school in a Ferrari. I'll teach them to stay away from drugs and alcohol during the few sober minutes I have each morning. I'll teach them about sex after having a three way with their mom and a hooker.



Damn, my life is going to kick ass.
