I doubt he would have started this thread if she treated him like an adult...I mean really what parents keep their college aged sons from going out all night or whatever he said he was going to do? daughters I can see but not sons

Welcome to reality. You will find that hateful parents are more the norm than the exception as you grow older and confide in more people and hear their stories.

I moved out of my home the August after my Freshman year. My Childhood room was my Step Mom's closet a week later. They literally built a wall down the middle of it, removed all my shite and built her a closet .All of my shite Which they later "lost". They caged my dog up in the laundry room for 6 months and then gave her to my Brother and she was promptly run over by a car. I lived in a frat house and when everyone went home I would be in that place alone for three weeks at a time or sleep at a girlfriend's home. I never spent another night at home. Not one single night.

That was just the beginning. My Father has been even worse to his four grandchildren. He doesn't even know them. My late brother's daughter gets married-he skips the wedding. He hasn't seen my kids in a decade and never sent a single card or a single phone call.

And this is all BEFORE we discuss my truly and clinically batshit mother who has rooted against me and complicated my life in every way imaginable since I was 12 years old.

My brother and I were cursed. I overcame it. He did not.

Thank God for the love of a good woman, the beautiful family I created and my wonderful in-laws.

And why does your mom have a set of keys to your truck anyways?



My parents have a set of keys to my ride and my house and I'm 36.


I also have a set of keys for their cars and houses too though so...

Your mother isn't crazy at all. If you were an adult your parents wouldn't be making decisions for you. Truck would be in your name and we would be telling you to report it stolen

I'm paying them $1000 a month


You are 21 years old. Handle it like a man. If she is gonna keep you from using the car and she can because it's not in your name, stop sending her 1000 dollars a month. Put the money you pay her away for 3 or 4 months and use it as a down payment on another vehicle. Throw your friend some gas money for having to haul you around too.

I don't wanna be a burden on my friends. I have a good paying internship as an engineer. This has just gotten ridiculous. And I know I probably put myself in this situation because I moved back home and bought a new vehicle. Had I not done any of this, I would not have to deal with her crazy shite. And I'm not an only child

They bought a new vehicle, you just overpay monthly rental fees. Seriously it's in their name, like everyone else has stated, give up the truck and go buy yourself a vehicle. You give them control, they will take control.

OP's mom does sound crazy, but it's a common problem when (technically) adult children return home after going to college away.

Sounds like OP would benefit from pulling himself up and paying for everything on his own (I know he said it was everything, but if he's living at home, it's not).

Sounds as though the parents financed the car in their names for possibly a lowered interest rate & insurance.

Kid is paying note, but if there's nothing in writing saying that he's paying for it and that they'll transfer title once it's paid, he's SOL. Best for him to leave them with the note to cover, get a crappy POS car till graduation & real job, and be cordial. Parents are not the bridges you want to burn in life.

Not looking to burn any bridges. I just want them to understand that I'm grown up enough to make my decisions now. I guess they don't quite understand that yet.
