Yeah and at 15 I am owed nothing. Do you know how hard it is to find work at all under 16?

So basically I go out and work every saturday, earning £10 a week. I used some of my money to buy herbal tea and then my dad decided to throw it out because apparently every time I make tea I make mess. I paid for that tea, completely with my own money and I'm 15. I had to buy my own butter the other day and then my Mum used it all up for cooking too. It's not like I'm loaded, I mean 7 hours, no breaks, for a tenner is just stupid.
I asked my Dad for the money back amd he said right after you pay me back for everything you've ever broken. They're my ****ing parents!
I know I'm just ranting but I mean wtf I get no pocket money from them or anything, yet they expect me to do loads.
What can I do? I can't just keep spending money for them to take it from me as they please!!

You're amazing, when you said in another post, 15 and saving up for bus fare. That's pretty honourable youngun
And it's **** that your folks ain't supportin ya and are just being selfish opportunists. My mum is like that, 22 now, got **** loads of money from paying too much for Uni and so they gagged up refunds back to me. I'm fulltime and don't work 
I just get lucky Manna from the gov and mates here and there. Everytime I do, my mum refuses to buy me food, thinking I have all this money in the world when the truth is, I ain't working and sometimes money just drops in right when I need it. If I were working, it would keep coming back to me. So I have to save it since it's not stable income. At least yours is stable income, as you work, and at least they let you work. When I was 15, my mum refused because I had to babysit my sister.
Now she keeps asking me for money to buy stuff she could buy, knowing or disregarding that I'm trying to save, argues when I ask her to pay me back, and seems to forget my sister is 26 and has more money than I do and works and never asks her, though. She even threatened to kick me out if I didn't order take away I only have a couple 100 and I need books and food.Original post by ChaoticButterfly
Don't work.

Just go and get one then. Are they going to physically stop you each morning from going out?
As you're 15 have you looked at this for help with travel to school?

Yes. And they'll probably take my phone, laptop, TV etc. Lock me in a room screaming at me, throw water over me each morning etc.
It's for next year and my parents are quite rich so we wouldn't get anything.

Breaking something in retaliation is an incredibly immature and unhelpful thing to do, and only makes things worse.

£10 for 7 hours? wtf.
Why did you have to buy your own butter?
You can't really do much. What you could do is show your parents you're responsible with your money, that you can be trusted with money and don't get caught lying about ****, keep your word. Then they should ease up on your ass.
And then you could try talking with them about getting some pocket money, maybe even make some expenses sheet where and on what you'd spend it. Have some reasons why you need it. Don't argue or get mad. No point.
You had to buy your own butter?!
Is it only the parents I know or do every South Asian parents pay for everything? A lot of my white friends used to work to pay for their bus fare which I thought was a bit unfair...

Surely they would be giving you money to go for college??
You are being underpaid by a country mile and I'm guessing you are working cash-in-hand?

My mum bought really salty stuff that makes me get blisters on my tongue, even though I told her this. She still continues do so.
