I am 17 years old and currently I live with my dad and little sister. My mom doesnt live with us but sometimes she gives me and my sister some allowance IF she can.
Of course since its just my dad...he has to pay the bills and that has always been stressful and still is.
Whenever I get money, I usually "lend" him the money,but I still havent seen some it back(he just doesnt have it,i guess).
I mean this is my last year of high school and I have senior AND junior dues to pay;homecoming stuff;and I want to save for a car of my own,
I also get money from another family member occasionally...but I SAVE this money b/c Idk where the next $ is going to come from.
Yes,I am currently looking for a job.
But I feel like I cant reach my goals by giving my Dad mone. At the same time I feel like if I have enough time to save this crucial money I can get a car and stuff...that will be better for the family in the long run. Dont you think I should be able to have money for myself to grow?
Please share your opinion.
