Is it normal to feel bad to ask your parents for money?
I feel that if i ask for money or anything that is expensive that im taking their hard earned money and i stary feeling guilty that they have to work daily and i for me to just ask for money is like taking something that they worked really hard for awway.
And i hate when my sister asks my parents for money! shes 24 and still asks for money for everything! and my parents being as kind as tbey are just give her the money but i kno for a fact that theyre makibg a sacrifice they cant afford doing so.
does anyone else feel this way?

    I always feel like this nearly every time I ask for money from my parents. Think of it that way, you can repay them in the future for all their hard work. I don't mean literally as in pay back the money you took but by taking care of them and when you finally get a stable job start buying them gifts etc. Showing them that you care and appreciate all that they do for you is more than enough for a parent.

    Yes, it's normal. If you get a job you won't feel guilty and it will be your money (:

    That's very considerate of you to know how hard it is to earn money.

    Depends on your age. If you're old enough then get a job.
