Help! I owe my parents money but cant pay...?

Question

So I owe my parents $100, but I only have 70. I had 150 in my bank but spent it. My parents keep saying 'we'll take you down to the bank and get the money' but i dont have it and they wont listen to me, they're getting really angry and i dont know what to do because i cant pay them all the money, what do i do?!?!

Answer 1

Learn some responsibilities. Shouldn't have spent it, more importantly shouldn't have barrowed it.

Get a job, and or work it off!

Answer 2

get a job  

Answer 3

Give them what you've got, it's better than nothing, and promise to pay them the rest when you get your first paycheck. When you get a job, of course.  

Answer 4

Give them the $70 and apologize for not having the full amount. Be honest, tell them you over spent but you plan on paying them the other $30 as soon as possible. They might really need the money or I am sure they wouldn't be hounding you for it. (And if they dont need the money they must be trying to teach you a lesson)

Answer 5

can't u borrow money from someone or get a job? XD

Answer 6

Sorry but all you can do is give them the $70 and tell them you

will pay them back the rest when you can.

: )

Answer 7

Go with them down to bank and give them the $70 you have, and also tell on yourself - that you spent the rest of your money instead of paying them off.

Apologize.

Then go get job to pay beck the rest of the money. If you are not old enough to work in public - then work in the neighborhood by mowing grass, babysitting, cleaning out basements or garages, etc.

Answer 8

If they want the money today, then there isn't anything you can do..just give them the 70 and tell them you will have the rest in a week or2..then in the meantime get some work and pay them..I bet you wont make that mistake again.. I know it's not going to be easy to tell them , but it's really better to get it over with..you're just prolonging the agony.
