Today, after telling my parents just exactly what I thought of them and that I was moving out, the person I was supposed to move in with called to say they'd decided they would rather live alone. FML

Might have been a better idea to wait until you were actually moved out to open your mouth. YDI

I think it's very noble to stand up to authority when it's clearly wrong, even if that authority is your own parents. Not every parent is loving and rational. That said, it seems that even if the parents were understanding and wanted to make amends, they weren't given a chance; the OP immediately declared he was moving out.

So even if the OP has terrible parents, they obviously took care of her until adulthood! Some people don't have parents, live in foster homes or on the streets....it's all about appreciating what you have...if you don't it gets taken from you. YDI OP..**** your parents life for having such a ungrateful daughter!!

Your naive assumptions about parents amaze me. Obviously you don't know about the parents who abuse their children so much that they WANT to not have parents, live in a foster home, or run away to live on the street. You obviously don't know about parents who take care of their children until adulthood whilst traumatizing them and making them violent as well as amoral. How about the parents who kill, or torture and THEN kill, their own children? Being a parent doesn't prevent somebody from being evil. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Well. You deserve it, in a way. Depending on how you told your parents what you think about them. If you verbally attacked them- YDI. But then again, that sucks. Awkward living conditions for a while!

Is the person you were going to live with schizophrenic?

Its a serious decision to confront your parents, and you should think about it for a long time before you do. Doing something like that can cause irreparable damage! I left and refused to come home in high school, because I was exhausted from the mental strain if being verbally abused by my stepmother. it's not a decision to take lightly; the relationship dynamic I once had with my father has suffered much damage since then. Always be sure before a confrontation!

Unless your parents were seriously physically, verbally, or emotionally abusive, it's usually better to keep your grievances to yourself.
