| 0:00.0 | My crazy and titled parents demand that I trade houses with them, because they were jealous |
| 0:04.9 | that mine was better, but when I said no, they retaliated by breaking into my house and stealing |
| 0:10.2 | my belongings. Things were so bad that I had to get the police involved, just to confront them |
| 0:15.0 | for what they did. Here's what happened. I'm gonna start this off by saying that if you have a house |
| 0:19.6 | and don't have cameras installed, get cameras. I have some now and I wish I had some sooner. |
| 0:24.7 | I live in a pretty typical manufactured home in Arizona. My parents also live in one just a few |
| 0:29.7 | streets over. Despite how close we are, I'm very limited contact because they are just plain |
| 0:34.8 | bad people. They treated me okay as a kid, but things changed as soon as I was in my late teens. |
| 0:39.8 | I was expected to do more and pay my way as soon as I finished high school. That was fair, |
| 0:45.0 | I wasn't adult by then after all, but my parents wanted a lot more in rent than I would have to pay |
| 0:50.2 | if I got my own apartment. I would have basically had next to nothing left for my monthly paycheck, |
| 0:55.1 | if I had given them exactly what they wanted, which was just ridiculous. So I refused to |
| 0:59.6 | give them more than a fair amount, plus a share in the utilities, and I started buying my own food |
| 1:04.6 | as well. My father openly said that this was not good enough, and my parents actually filed official |
| 1:10.0 | paperwork to evict me when I refused to cater to their demands. I left home and got an apartment |
| 1:14.9 | with my best friend. Five years later, I bought my own house in a neighborhood not far from my parents. |
| 1:20.3 | It's just a manufactured home on a small property, but it was so cheap that I couldn't turn it down, |
| 1:25.6 | and my monthly mortgage isn't bad either. I even moved my best friend in to help me cover the |
| 1:30.2 | bills. We were already used to living in a small space as it is, and the house gave us much more room. |
| 1:35.6 | I may even let another friend move in to get some more rent money for the mortgage, |
| 1:39.6 | because we've only got one room that's actually left unused right now, since the house is a |
| 1:43.9 | three bedroom. My parents, though, somehow didn't like my independence from them. |
