[FONT=Arial][SIZE=1]Hmm I'm 19. A college students who works part time. Ever since I was 16 I've had a job which pretty much helped me be independent. As soon as I graduated high school and found a job.. my parents made me pay for everything I owned. Being filipino... most parents would get you things.. like your car and everything like that.. provide you with money when you need. Not mines.. well for me anyway. I have two other sisters (one older and one younger) and they get everything... I on the other hand dont get sh*t!!

I have to pay for:
1. My Car
2. My Insurance
3. My cell phone
4. My credit cards
5. and Entertainment

Monthly that amounts to almost $1300.00 Damn! thats a grip load of money.. anyway.. my point is.. I HAVE SHIESTY parents... what about you???

well, my parents abuse me alot, they should be reported and they would be given the death sentence, im either gonna commit suicide or kill them, u got it easy

Sorry to hear that.. but you shouldnt have to put up with that.... sorry if that offended you...

Awww, I'm sorry to hear that..

Report 'em, yo.

yea i know what you mean. my parents give my little brother all the money he wants and needs (and he doesn't even have to work for it!)... while i'm stuck doing this 5.15/hr job trying to pay for many of my own things. however, my parents are a bit nicer since they agreed to pay for my cell.

=T

well im spoiled so its ok...buh at times dey threaten mee bout da money i used nd dey said dat i hab to pay fo maiself...its annoying

Well .. I guess yer parents r jz tryin to teach you independence .. you gotta pay fer yer own stuff .. i hope it werks out =]

my parents r hella strict. they i have limits for pretty much everything. plus they alwayz treat me like im only 5 -_-. they dont think that i can be independent. i dont ask for alot n they go and say im spoiled and stuff. they also get mad at me over things mai bro does. bleh mai parents are mean. i noe i probably dont got it that bad but they realli do make me feel bad all the time

How about no one dies? And you just report them because that's messed up if they abuse you and they should have to pay not you.

My parents are the typical filipino parents who get me everything... I am also an only child which kinda makes me even more spoiled then I am... But i mean they do make me work hard for the th ings i get... And ya know you may be workin really hard and not get very much, while everyone else in your family gets everything, but you also gotta know that since your 19 and your doing all of these things independently, you'll also be alot more mature then most 19 yr old people ya know... Your in school, you work, you are mostly independent... You've got my respect, because i like it when people work hard to get where they are. So in a way you may be bummed out, but in another way you could be very happy

my parents can get stingy on me at times, but its very rare they do that...

I think you should talk to an adult.. don't suicide..

my parents are soo freakin over protective and annoying argh..

well i dink my parents are fine. but urs are.. maybe u should tell dem how u feel.

damn for real...that is a lot
well maybe cuz i don't have car or car insurance
i mean i only pay for:
cellie
clothes
hygiene stuff
