I'm 20 years old and I still live with my parents while I'm in school. They are driving me crazy. I want to get out but I can't afford to so I'm stuck in this situation. Anyway, my birthday is coming up and they're throwing this huge party that I don't want. They already sent out the invitations, so I can't get out of it. Is it wrong to fake an illness so I can stay the entire night in my room? (link)
If your parents aren't listening to you, there are some definite communication problems that should probably be addressed before said party.

However, if the invitations are already sent and you aren't in the mood to look like a huge ass completely insensitive to what your parents do for you, I'd suck it up and go. Otherwise, no matter who says what, it's going to look to everyone that it's your fault and you're a horrible ingrate. In the future, make it clear to your parents that you won't be attending anymore of this stuff if they don't clear it with you.
