use the 'hole in the bucket' strategy.

Son, Sweep the path please.
With what shall I sweep it?
Try the broom.
The broom handle's broken.
Then fix it.
With what?
Try the curtain rail.
But the curtain rail's too long.
Then cut it.
What with?
Try the saw.
Where's the saw?
In the garage.
The garage is too messy.
Then clean it.
With what shall I clean it?
Use the broom.
But the broom handle's broken..

That's annoying? How about the fact that it's their money? Be fortunate in todays day and age you have clean clothes, shelter and food. Your parents work for their money and probably didn't have the stuff that you have when they were young.

I can't stand having a messy room anyway, if I have stuff everywhere, I feel really 'stuffy', I don't know, I just like having everything put away.

I suppose, but, why do they not just say that it is their money. I'm not asking to keep the money, I would be simply asking to borrow it.
