When you ask your parents for something like a new phone or a console game etc, do you always get it?
if i want something, in the long run i do get it. whether my parents or i pay for it, i will get it.
Depends on the cost.
I can't think of anything that I was never able to have but I never really did ask for anything stupidly expensive except at Christmas, It's good having a similar aged sister because every time she got something my parents would always let me have something to be fair.
I am sorta at the stage I basically buy the majority of stuff myself and my parents just give me the money back. So much easier :)
Still dont know what i want this year! xD
Sometimes, yes.. unless it's something ridiculous.
no my parents make me pay for stuff myself -_-
if ur on about xmas then ye
Mum n dad will generally, only because I dont ask for stuff from one month to another.
it kinda depends on what it is, but i'm one of those people who feels guilty if someone else buys them something - so i tend to try and pay for things myself :)
same ^^^
Not all the time, but most times yes, even though it might take a while :D But I don't constantly say 'get me this, get me that' - I'm not a spoile brat.
edit: i made a rhyme :)
If your on about for christmas, I usualy get everything I ask for.
If your on about all the time, I only get clothes and other essentials bought for me now.
The only things I buy myself are DVDs really tho.
when i ask for stuff i dont get it
but if i asked for money, i always do lol
Within reason, yes.
Nope...
Depends on what it is...
As long as it's within reason price-wise, I would get it eventually (like I've wanted an iPhone since the 1st gen came out) and that's me just getting one for Xmas this year.
depends on what it is, how neccessary it is, how much money at present i can put towards it
Nah not really, i don't take advantage of my family.
Absolutely not.
Most the things I have like my imac, HDTV, I payed for. Not because they don't want to buy me it. Just because they have more important things to spend 300 pounds on. For IE I want a PS3 but there not going to spend 300 pounds so they will give me some money towards it.
yea, pretty much...
yeh ....
If I want something like a game or something, which is usually around £50, my mum usually lends me the money so I can pay her back with any spare cash I have. But when I start making an effort at paying back, she usually lets me have it, or pays for half of it.
Meh, she does get £15 child benefits a week.. LOL doesn't even pay for butchers.
I tend to think that if I asked I would probably get something I wanted, but I find myself not asking for things I feel are too expensive in conjunction with that.
Yeah whatever I ask for within reason I get.
Nah,
i prefer buying things for myself..
well i did ask my mom for a brand new honda accord coupe, but she said no and helped me buy a used accord sedan instead.
Sometimes if i ask for somthing my mum will buy me it, but most of the time i have to buy my own stuff. I have a job and i get ema though.
But then again, if i turn around and ask for some money for the cinema or petrol she noramlly gives me a tenner here and there.
If I want something I'll buy it myself.
i buy my own stuff
tell my mum, and she gives me the money and says 'you dont have to pay for that'
:)
Exactly like me. I work so I saved my money up to buy stuff I wanted. I wanted a new TV so I bought one. I wanted a PS3, so I bought one.Quote:
