My parents suck...

[chadm_88]

So I got like a 3 hour detention at school for skipping my other detentions, and my parents throw a huge fit and take my truck keys away. I don't see why they are punishing me since im already getting a freaking 3 hour detention on a damn SATURDAY! My parents are such bitches...this is one of about 1000 things that i do that arent really that big of a deal, but they turn it into one. I didnt even do anything seriously wrong, just forgot some detentions that i got for not doing my homework...what kind of bullshit is that?! you would think the damn teacher wouldnt care because im already hurting my grade....whatever though.

Nobody has to reply to this, im just getting this out...it makes me feel better when i can just let other ppl know about it.

Well, it should help you learn your lesson: Do your homework.

Would that be the truck they gave you? Cry me a river.

[96Civ]

Thats why I dropped out of school...

...but got my deploma another way.

You'll get no sympathy from most of us as most of us got ourselves in to trouble in school and with parents as well. However, most of us dont go complain that our parents are bitches because of our own mess-ups. As OZ said, if thats the truck they gave to you then its their right to take it back, boo-hoo.

Yeah, my mom is like that, but i do very well in school, number 3 in grade, she just wont let me do hardly anything. New Years night, she wanted me to be home by 12 from a friends house. Finally got her to set it back to 12:30, but she makes so many threats that she'll take my truck away if i screw up, yeah she gave it to me, so i follow what she says and am slowly earning her trust. Both of my older brothers totalled a car each while in high school, so she started off not trusting me, for no reason at all. Oh well, the trust will come soon enough.....she will eventually get over her unsupported suspicians that i drink. She might even think i do drugs.......for no reason at all......other than the fact that shes paranoid......i think paranoia is hereditary.....im a kinda paranoid person myself.......

Oh, uhh just follow their rules and you will have nothing to worry about. If it was me I would not have my truck keys, be thankful.

I tell ya, I really do get sick of when kids bash their parents. They do so much more than you will ever know, and then you get pissy because they make a decision that you don't like, even when they have the authority to make such a decision. My parents have worked damn hard to be where they are and I've got more respect for them than I do anyone I know. I'm glad they treated me the way the did, because I appreciate everything I have and appreciate everything that they do for me, because I know that they didn't necessarily have to.

I used to be the same way you are. I would get pissed because my parents would ground me for things that I thought were so tiny. A bad grade here and there, or being late and not calling. I finally figured out that I had to be responsible for things on my own and that if I wasn't going to take care of it, my parents were going to help me out in that department.

So...did you have a reason for skipping your other detentions, or did you just not want to own up to your own personal responsibility like a man? My guess is that if you aren't bothered by the punishment that the school gave you, then your parents felt the need to show you an inconvenience instead. Take the hint and take responsibility for yourself.

Teachers DO care, because the poor grade you get reflects poorly on them. Teachers are reviewed in their positions and the poor grades of their students are taken into account. If all the students in your class had the same poor attitude you have, your teacher would most likely not have a job next year.

Homework is a pain in the ass. I know this. I spent 14 hours on a single project last semester. 14 consecutive hours. I didn't want to do it, but you know what? Sometimes there are things that need to get done, even if you don't want to do them.

You're right, people don't have to reply to this. However, when you put it in a forum such as this, you're more than likely to get comments. A synopsis of my thoughts?

Grow up and take responsibility for your own actions. Try to think of how your parents see things. How would you treat your child if he or she was doing poorly and didn't care? If he or she didn't do what was required of him or her because of "not feeling like it"?

I apologize if I seem like an asshole, but so often I see this kind of thing and I think "how hard is it to just be a man and do it"? Apparently it's harder than I thought.

[Jimster]

No sir, YOU suck.

[351Cougar]

i wish that was the least of my worries, try getting abandoned by your mother on christmas for no reason at all

[sltdhs]

Well said Swigz...

[WickedNYCowboy]

How old are you two complaining about your parents taking "your" truck away. Grow up and take responsibility for your actions. You brought the troubles upon yourself. You made a choice now suffer the consequences. Also don't do the crime if you can't do the time. Grow up would you. Also keep in mind what goes around comes around. Respect your parents they will be the only ones that can help you if something goes seriously wrong.

"Oh mommy I reeally reeeally want ma twuck back, pweeeezzz, ill be goo i promissse.."

[Oz]

a_hol06 - I totalled their car. Twice. And my own. And I do all the shit you mention. And these days, they trust me. It's taken a while.

nah man, you need to stop being a little bitch and think of how lucky you are. Don't take this the hard way. Try this: just shut the fuck up for the next like 3 years. try to learn. and get good grades and then try to go to school. then in three years. open your mouth and start talking again. you'll thank me.

you know I just sent my dad an e-mail the other day that wen't a little something like this:

Dad,
remember when I was a kid and I used to fuck up and you'd beat my ass and I hated you? and you said I'd thank you for it someday. Well I'm 20 now and... you were right. Thanks for beating my ass dad. I needed it.
-Love your Son.


And I'm only 20. You'll see in a few years. You know what would be even worse though.... is if they just didn't give a shit. you should be happy they are mad. because they care about you.

[my3rdskyline]

another thing I have learned is that if you are in trouble and you owe shit like detentions or whatever... just stop running from it. it's going to get worse. pay up... get it overwith and try to keep your head clean. you'll be a lot less stressed out. and do your fucking homework. just do it right when you get home from school that way it's done and you can really relax the rest of the night.

to sum it up. you are old enough to realize you are being a dipshit. so just knock it off jackass.
