Today, my dad vehemently refused to let me go on vacation to France with my best friend, because he watched Taken a few months ago and apparently forgot that it's just a movie. FML

Today, I was watching a movie with my family in which a character said "Fuck you, dad." My dad then slapped me over the head to get my attention and said, "Never talk to your father like that." Okay, dad. FML

Today, we watched a movie in French class. I went on a French exchange last year, so I wanted to sound all impressive and cultured for my crush who is in the same class. I said that it was my favorite movie and I couldn't wait to watch it with everyone. The movie turned out to be about incest. FML

Today, my sister and I were planning a trip to get away from things and visit some faraway friends. My dad then decided to insert himself into our plans. He got mad when we said no, and couldn't understand why we wanted to go by ourselves. FML

Movie night

Today, my friend had invited me to his home for a movie night with another friend. I had to decline because I have prior plans. He then revealed that they only wanted me there so I could bring DVDs, but "don't worry, we'll find something on Netflix to watch instead." FML

Overreaction much?

Today, I was watching a movie that had a mild sex scene in it. My mother walked in just as that scene was starting and she flipped out. I'm now grounded. She's taken my TV and laptop out of my room and refuses to let me see my boyfriend because she's sure he's the cause of my "disgusting behaviour". FML

Today, my dad lectured me because my mom cried herself to sleep last night. Why? Because I didn't want to watch a movie with her. I had to go to sleep to be up for work at 6 a.m., and was too tired to watch a movie in the first place. I live with drama queens. FML

Kidnapping happens all of the time. You never know, be happy with your dad because he obviously loves you.

To be fair, my parents wouldn't have let me go to France without adult supervision when I was under 18 either.

Hopefully it's not too late for him to snap back into reality and allow you to go. P.S, I'm super jealous, I'd love to go to France.

Why are people down voting? What was wrong with what #12 said?

Just because it was on a movie doesn't mean it can't still happen. People get kiddnapped all around the world. He is just looking out for your well-being! Althought it does suck not being able to go on your trip.

Maybe he could go with you? I know it's lame, but it's better to take advantage of the opportunity and please your dad at the same time than it is to completely miss out on this chance

Apparently you forgot that everything that happened in said movie exists in real life. The only thing they made up was the story.

I agree. In my opinion, The fact that Op thinks that only happens in the movies is an indicator that she isn't prepared to go away like that without adult supervision. If you are under 18 than I have to say I agree with him, as much as that may suck.
