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) (link)

I totally agree with you!
I would feel the same way!!
hmmmm...
Maybe you should just try telling them how you feel, that you should be given a reward for getting a job, not punished by having to give away 1/3 of it.

I suppose, but these other answers changed my opinion. Actually when I wrote this question I felt that way, like I was being punished, but now I realized it's a nice thing to give a 1/3 to them, I mean they deserve a break and seeing me living in their house, growing up, it's about time I've helped out and been nicer. Thanks though
