Today, after selling their car, my parents decided to inform me that my car (that I paid for myself) is now going to be the "Family Car". They also informed me that since it is, after all, my car, I'll still have to pay for the gas and maintenance. FML

If my parents did that to me I'd tell them they can either start contributing to gas and maintenance or they can start finding other ways to travel, like a bus, or a bike. They may be your parents but if you paid for that car with your own money, you should still have a say on who can and can't use it, and you shouldn't have to foot the car bills yourself if you aren't the only one using it.

Damn parents. You at least say SOMETHING... but sorry to say it probably won't work...

I can understand they might need you to drive some places sometimes, and your family need help getting around. but thats not right they have to do that to you. Don't really have to be mean and tell them to F**k off, just have to say, "look I bought this car and if I'm not busy I will try to help in any way."

sell your car, buy a small truck. Problem solved. Your "family car" can't consist of two seats.

If you legally own it and it's in your name, they can't do that. It's YOUR car, and if they take it without your permission, that would be considered stealing.

Hell no. Refuse. And if they tell you its either that, or you move out, then Move out. It's your car, your money.

Just call the car in stolen if they take it. No...I'm kidding on that one. But you should say something. It is your car after all. You have every right to.
