>Mother is a (failed) career woman>Father is mediocre, did nothing with his life except watching TV and popping out some kids, has even asked me for money>Mother also has asked me for money for decaying grandparents>Who have also contributed nothing to me>Parents are also decaying and becoming older themselves>I barely feel like I've managed to escape the bleak future they secured for me, barely feel like I've started livingI think and feel my entire family didn't plan for shit and now are trying to leech off of me. I found some modicum of success, at least enough to get by alone, but I can't have dependents besides my small dog. They've given me nothing, taught me nothing to deal with real life.I've already told them I'd give them no money, but they still feel like a heavy load on my shoulders, psychologically speaking. I wish I could tell them they're fucking losers, but that'd probably break them.
>>34525002>They've given me nothing, taught me nothing to deal with real life.Yeah they have you absolutely nothing. You fed yourself as a baby, clothed yourself as an infant, made yourself dinners as a toddler. Signed yourself up to school, signed yourself up to doctors and got your vitamins and vaccinations all on your own you just crawled there as a baby. You did it all on your own, it was you as a 2 year old who worked hand over fist to make money to keep the lights on and the heat in the house. You even worked the grind as a 5 year old and got yourself those birthday presents and Christmas presents to give to yourself. You did it all alone, your parents just sat there. They even watched you change your own diapers and wipe your own ass for 3 years straight, you were just so independent and individual right out of the womb. Fucking screwbal.
>>34525491That's the bare minimum you are supposed to do if you decide to bring life into this world by having children... What a retarded argument.
>>34525491>They kept you alive so that means you're their slave until they / you dieKEK
>>34525002>>34525536i dont really agree with either of you two, you are both kind of having an extreme viewif you arent wealthy enough to spend on your parents then just tell them that and thats about it. if you are wealthy enough to help them a little bit i think it would be decent of you to do, but like i said if you arent really wealthy you dont need to do this at all...i dont think you need to make a huge fuss about this
>>34525547>if you are wealthy enough to help them a little bit i think it would be decent of you to do,I've done so but I feel burdened. In a "offer your hand, they take the entire arm" kind of wayI haven't decided to have kids yet, but I couldn't ever imagine ever deciding to impose burdens on them
>>34525536>>34525545No one said anything about being their slave, retards. OP's the dumbass who lies the this parents gave him nothing which isn't true because if it were true he'd be dead. Being thankful isn't being a slave. At least an acknowledgement would be nice but no, OP had to sound off like a spoiled brat instead. >Wahhh I had to get my own job and make my own money >Wahh my parents therefore didn't give me shit they should have just given me money for free >Wahhh I don't understand how loans work or how lending money works wahhh
>>34525733You sound like a fucking retarded boomer.If you bring life into the world you have to prepare it for independence, not leech off it you worthless cattle.
>>34525002Just ignore them, honestly it's shameful for a parent to ask for money from their child. They had decades to get their shit together but didn't.
>>34525740You're delusional. I ask parents for money all the time and I pay it back. They ask me for money, I oblige, and they pay me back. It's called being a functional adult who interacts with parents as a fellow adult. If you're over 18 and still expecting to be babied that's a sign of immaturity
Most people are not fit to be in relationships and have kids
