Today, my father finally achieved his long-held goal. He has legally disowned me. FML
I agree, your life sucks 35 399
You deserved it 3 255

_kyleG_ tells us more.

An explanation is probably in order here. I am mentally and socially handicapped, brainwashed, and a worthless burden. My father is a pillar of the community, a family man, and loves his poor, misguided child dearly. -according to dear old dad, at any rate. So, fact check: I've just graduated high school with a 3.9 and lots of AP credits. I'll be going to college on academic scholarship as a biology major this fall. I'm currently working full time in auto finance. Also, I'm dating the most beautiful girl in the world. My father(or ex-father?) is an abusive passive-aggressive narcissist. The last time I saw him, the police had to intervene so I could leave school without being forced to go with him. He didn't want to pay child support any longer, so the moment I turned 18, he filed for emancipation. I have a court date in about a month, to get rid of the bastard's name and take my mother's maiden name. I'm happy, and this is all for the best. Thank you all for your kind words- this community is awesome :)

Ouch, you are probably better of without him.

I'd say you didn't deserve something as awful as to be disowned, but you did. You so did. You deserved to have that toxic figure out of your life. You deserve to not be tied to him in any way. It really ******* sucks but at least he's not dragging you down anymore. Maybe someday he'll regret losing your amazing self or maybe he won't ever look back. Either way he doesn't deserve another ounce of concern or caring from you, love.

That sucks geez it's not my business but may I ask why?

No matter what you've done, family is always the most important thing. If he disowned you, you're probably better off without him. Good luck op!

#13 Actually, it does matter what a person does. I can think of a couple of reasons on why someone really deserves to be disowned.

That's really awful OP. I'm so sorry. However, use the pain this causes you as motivation to make yourself successful and make him regret his decision until his dying day. I hope you have other family or friends you can lean on for support in the mean time. Stay strong!

You, my friend, are son of an ass!!

Don't think people got the pun.. His father is indeed an ass

No, I don't think they got it. :')

It's gonna be funny when you prove to him you don't need anything from him and manage on your own just fine. Don't let this affect you to much OP. Be the bigger man and show him that one of you is.

I never knew my dad growing up, OP. I still did freaking amazing without that bum, and while it may hurt at first you don't need him to be your best!

I know how it feels OP, it'll get better!

Screw him! I have no doubt that you're an amazing person, so I hope this doesn't set you back too much. Stay strong and seek comfort/support from those around you.

I'm sorry OP, I have a "Father" that I call my biological Father I've known him my whole life, and then there is the man that I actually call Dad and he's my mom's ex boyfriend he's been more of a Dad to me than my biological Father, just because he is your biological parent doesn't make him your Dad it just makes him a sperm donor. I am sorry if you are hurting but I also hope that you are better off without him OP because if he can legally disown his own son then he doesn't deserve the title Dad. Please give us an update so we know how you are doing Good Luck OP.
