parents - the necessary evil

My parents are on my case again. Only this time, I am afraid it is on a bit bigger scale, and that scares me.
Last week, my dad basically told me that even if by some remote chance I did get in to Chico, I show no sign of succeeding there. In an email a few weeks ago, he stated that, this is a direct quote:

If you do not get into Chico State, our intent is that you go directly into the workforce and support yourself completely (i.e., not live at home). We do not want to support you going to a community college at any time, but you may, of course, do so at your own volition and expense.

Well, how did this come into play today? Yesterday he went to my bank and pulled my account, of which he was the undersigner. He gave me the remaining balance in cash, but my account has now been deactivated. My dad told me that if I wanted a new one, I am going to have to wait until I am 18. Funny, my birthday (May 29) is suprisingly close to graduation day (June 3), and hence summer. Anyone want a roomate this summer?
*sigh*

It may actually come to that. I have another friend that is moving there at the beginning of this summer, so if I get kicked out or anything, I want to move down there too.
I will keep you posted

Why would he pull all the money out of your account?? That just sounds like somebody having a bad day and acting like a looney because of it. My dad does that sometimes.

Sheesh, talk about anal retentive. Well Dave, I've never met your dad, but he sounds like he can be a prick at times. I'm sure if you needed it, you could camp out at my place for a while, but it gets crazy soemtimes, with the having a million kids and all. I'll be gong to shasta college, so maybe you could give me rides.... lol... yeah... not driving bites.
