Curb your expectations

By Academia - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom

Today, I got accepted into University, onto a course I don't want to do, but my parents said they would disown me if I didn't go. I believe them, since they haven't spoken to my shop assistant sister in about three years now. FML

Don't listen to your parents. Just do what you want in life. It's your life, not theirs.

Let them be stupid. They'll regret it when they don't have any kids who come to see them or talk to them. They'll just come crawling back one day, and u can tell them they did it to themselves

your parents suck. I would have told them off and wrecked the house

Why did you apply for a course that you didn't want to do? Surely that's a bad idea and you should've just steered clear of that course altogether?!?!

Their parents probably filled out the application for them.

you're dumb. get a pair. wtf does it matter about your parents. its your life. you gonna rely on them forever? cmon now.

It's okay, at least now you are in the university system and can easily change to the course you want (:

Don't forget to take a grammar course, semi-colon much.

The colon was appropriate for the context; your comma was not.

sounds to me like being disowned by people like that would be no great loss

I'm sorry but if your parents feel they should disown you after that? is it really worth having them at all?
