My parents took my car, destroyed my cell phone, and wont tell me where my computer is. i ran away and walked 5 miles to this hotel i'm at now. unfortunately i'm in the lobby because there is no rooms left and i called every other hotel within 20 miles and the same answer. thank you tourism -_-
oh, and i tried calling every single person i know around here and they are eaither not home or i cant get a hold of them. god dammit i dont know what i'm going to do. it's 1am and i have no where to go and no money.
I'm officially homeless. great. watch the art i have now because you wont be seeing any more of it for, well, a long long time.

Ok...first of all....how are you typing on a computer? (*edit...nm...you're still at the hotel as we speak)
A couple other questions.....
-Why did they do all of this? What did you do that's soo bad?
-Did they actually destroy your cel? That's nuts man! That dumbfounds me.
-Do you have money to live???
-Will they let you back home??
-Are you okay dude? This is pretty serious....

i was gonna go galactic bowling w/ dylan and dan and my dad was like no, not any chance. and i was like "ok so i'll call him back and jsut tell him my parents are assholes?" and he said yes and i did, and he was like no one calls me an asshole and took my phone, broke it in half, threw it at me then threw it out the window, went down stairs, took my car keys, and told me to get out. yeah.
i have a debit card that i cant remember the pin to and a credit card that only has about 15$ on it. i have 10$ cash. i've called every hotel in the area and no one can let me in so i'm stuck.....nowhere for the night.

Yeah thats pretty intense... situations like this, dont freak out. Just wait an hour or so and try calling again.
Your parents sound crazy, fill us in on what happened.
and yeah, how u posting this?

and when i say he threw it at me, i mean he pitched it at me like a baseball player. it left a big welt on my back.
edit: i'm posting this from the courtesy computer in the lobby of this hotel that the clerk was so nicely allowing me to use.

Okay...well I look at it like this:
a) by calling your dad that (who provides you with a house, food, and whatever else)....he has every right to get mad (I'd almost even let that justify him breaking your phone, but my gut still tells me that that was still going too far)
b) I'm assuming the "get out" is one of those "don't come back for a while until you've thought about what you said and are ready to sincerely apologize" things....I doubt he's saying "we never want to see you again"
c) your best bet would be to stay the night somewhere (even if it IS a hotel lobby or whatever) and let your parents know that you've thought about the situation long and hard......and then return in the morning with an apology. Your parents seem very strict in their rules and seem like the types to stand by their statements......so I'd suggest remaining as HUMBLE and UN-ARGUMENTATIVE and SORRY as possible. I'm sure you're probably FUMING about what they did etc.....but the only way that I can see you getting back inside is if you admit to being completely wrong etc....maybe give them an alternative like "I'll do X activity in order to make it up to you" etc
d) try not to call your parents names again

...you obviously hit a nerve
e) why wouldn't they let you go bowling??

thanks for the advice tyson, you're a good friend. they wouldnt let me go bowling because it was 11pm and the bowling is from 12-2, and they were already mad at me for making them leave some party early so i could go to this.

makes me sad to hear that, ridestowe...
hope everything will be fine when night is over...
good advices here
i'm just speculating about it, but your parents might don't like the things you use your computer for...
try to concentrate on schoolthings, not gaming (if you do).
if its 3 ds max, tell 'em that you want to make a living from it and work hard, so they'll see you have a goal in mind...
i know, those advices are boring, but since i'm a father myself, thats the way we old bastards are ... we make boring advices...
good luck

Wow that is really scary dude. I have a friend who constantly argues with his parents. WHen im at his house i just want to slap him a new brain because he is argueing over the smallest things.
For trying to patch things up make them breakfast before they go to work or something say bye and you love them(or something like that) and head off to school right after that. They will have time to think about the situation and when you come home they might want to talk to you in a civilized manner.
I hope things get better for you soon.

really sad to hear this.
Your father really told you to get out of the house? What old are you? I hope I'll never say to my children to get out for a night, never know what could happen.
