Today, it's my birthday. My parents, with whom I live, told me that they didn't get me anything, but instead they said they would knock off a bit of the housekeeping I owe them. FML

For my 18th I got a nice set of luggage and a swift kick in the ass.

#22 Who said she was old enough to live on her own? The fact that OP is expected to do chores doesn't mean that they're legally old enough to move out.

OP might not even be 18, and her parents are kind of assholes. I know you are suppose to do chores, but not even a card or like a candle or some shit? xD Like damn, show your child you care enough to put a little effort. Not even making OP breakfast in bed or something? "Hey, i'm not going to do anything special or different for your birthday, i'm just going to give you less work to do and pretend like it's the best gift ever."

all these comments... OP is not spoilt or ungrateful, you all had ****** up parents. being kicked out at 18 is absolutely not okay, not having to do chores as a gift is bullshit. To all parents out there, you decided to have kids. that's not a contract till they're 18, it's for life. you are responsible for the life you create, and there is no 'done'. children are not property and should not have to be grateful for being alive, they had no choice. And if you receive a gift every year for your birthday and suddenly you don't.... wouldn't you be pissed off? that's a shitty thing to do.
