my name is hannah! i'm a sophomore and i love life. i'll give you the best advice i can give.

advice

I am finally getting a job, so when I told my parents about how I won't need their money to go the mall anymore I felt mature and glad I wasen't going to have to keep asking them from cash. Well, in the middle of the conversation my mom was like "You do know that you are putting a third in the bank and giving a third to us right?" I couldn't believe that I have to pay them my money. My dad was like "Well what about our hard earned money? We give it to you two (my sister and I) all the time. Besides the family needs it." Um hello, isn't that what you two are for? My mom thinks since I have a job I have to pay "room and board" WTH?! Are my parents being unreasonably rediculous here???
(Keep in mind I'm earning minimum wage here, so saving up for anything now is foolish)

okay the person that first answered is kinda right. but parents are SUPPOSED to do that. they are parents they should be taking care of you and buying you food and clothes, etc. i think it's absolute crap you have to do that..
but that's just my oppinion. i'd try talking to them more about it..

(Rating: 3) True, but seeing some of these answers, I've come to a decision that, my parents do deserve the money. My parents would like a break and if they asked me in a nicer way, I would have said yes. But its all cool now, I agreed to the 1/3 plan. Thanks though
