Today, my parents threatened to take away my college funds. Why? Because I complained about my 10 pm curfew during break as a freshman in college. FML

Sadly... Until you move out into your own place you need to live by their rules. I know that sucks for you, but unless they can accept that you're grown up and an adult now, you're gunna have to learn to deal with it. Sorry. :/

Or your parents should respect the fact you're a grown adult and shouldn't have a curfew. I mean 11 pm is kinda early for a 22 yr old..

I seem to be in the minority here but I think you should be grateful that your parents are giving you money for college and not complain about a curfew you only have to endure when you're living at their house. You have it better than many, try to remember that.

Their house their rules. Now that I'm done with school I'm thankful that they were strict. You'll understand when you have your own kids.

I hope you went back and thanked them. Parenting is not easy when done right....

I never had a curfew or strict parents and I turned out ok I mean I'm 23 5 years into my career and I own my own home

You are lucky 62. A lot of kids without rules and good parenting either don't turn out to be as great, or they do, but they made some big stupid mistakes when they were younger and had no rules.

46 I totally agree. My daughter is 2 and I'm already worried about all these things. I thank my parents everyday for all they've done for me.

Do you plan on commenting this on every fml post? How original...

Simple you don't like the curfew? Become a true adult and get your own place with your own bills I bet in 6 months you'd be crying to go back home

what's wrong with 10pm? unless they're like, "if you're not home by 9:59 i'm going to call you every 5 minutes to see where you are and if you're not home 20 minutes later, i'm taking away your college fund and kicking you out so you have to pay on your own," then yeah, they crazy.

pay your own way that is not new York so they don't have to

These funds might've what the parents saved up when OP was a child. Some parents do that.

Your only a freshmen in college, you cant really be that old but to be fair you should try and talking with them

Ditch them. Get a job. Or two. Be free.

At least you have college funds. My dad already told me I'm on my own. Life debt or 10 PM curfew temporarily? Yeah.

So what? When you're staying in their house, it's their rules. And they're paying for you to go to college, even better, they don't have to, especially if you're not following the rules they have set for you. Yeah, it might not seem fair to have a curfew, especially at 10pm, but oh well. Be grateful you have a place to stay and money to go to college.
