As a child who lives in the house with parents, parents do not answer to u... u answer to them. And I'm sorry if that's a hard pill to swallow. They do pay the bills and make sure u have a roof over ur head.. and also pay that bill to that phone u use and the internet that u are using. So what If u don't l Iike something. Parents are parents first, friends second. As a parent I can say LIFE ISNT FAIR. A Parents job is not to answer to the child no matter how much u think they should!! When u have kids one day u will fully comprehend this. But none of u out there who do not have children will ever comprehend this! Because most of you think your parents owe you things. NEWS FLASH THEY DO NOT. I used to have similar gripes when I was younger. Then I had my own kids and completely understood this.

I don't disagree with you. Thankfully my son is too young to think he's entitled to things
I totally understand the general sentiment, and am big on two-way respect, showing gratitude for your parents, pulling weight around the house etc
But sometimes, I do think parents need reminding that they chose to have the kid. You can't expect it all from your children. They didn't ask to exist. Expensive rent/'keep' a prime example, you chose to bring that child into your house now you want half their low, part-time wage off them. Scandalous ;)
I think it’s a simple truth. If you’re in a house where you’re being provided for, and you’re not kept against your will as an adult or being abused as a child, a person answers to those parents!
