"I'll give you cash if you stop being a little bitch."
Have you ever been bribed by your parents/relatives? Doesn't have to be money.
If so: Why? I've been given cash just to go out. Also, mum gave me 20 BGN a few hours ago 'cause she pissed me off and didn't want me to stay mad at her. I thank my anger issues and negotiation skills for that. Share your stories. |
I've been bribed by my brother. Work on a project for him on Photoshop in exchange for a big bag of Doritos. Win win.

I do IT for the family. My mother is the only one complaining about surcharges from me even though everyone else in the family pretty much doesn’t give a fuck ¯\°_o/¯
$50 is fair for laying out and building a PC, right? Right? |
Kinda reverse. I do nice things around the house because I feel like I should and also it bothers me when things aren't done. My dad always tries to give me money for it, but I say no because my parents have done a lot for me and it makes me feel bad.
Instead of bribes my brother and I make deals. Like last year I think I made a deal that I would shovel every snowstorm if he did the dishes everyday AND THEN IT SNOWED SO MUCH THAT WINTER ROAR |
I don't that I remember. I usually pay my parents back for what they do for me by doing things for them. No need for money.

I had paid chores growing up which I prefer to either chores with no pay or no chores. Also, I was scolded for B's and rewarded with $$$ for A's. Even without the incentive I would have strived for the A's. I honestly think rewarding children for doing good things can be beneficial.

I don't know if it's really a bribe, but during my freshman year I did people's geometry/engineering work for 10 dollars a week since it takes literally like 15 minutes and it just makes me better at it and they were too lazy to do it. I ended up make like almost $300 before the teacher realized something was up because people who hadn't done the stuff the entire year started getting it done. The teacher praised me for my entrepreneurship so it wasn't too bad.

$50 from my mum to try out for head girl my senior year. I mean it wasn't anything more than writing my name down on a piece of paper, but it was already dead obvious to the rest of the year that I was going to be school photographer or head of IT anyway (which in the end I became both). So basically got $50 for writing my name om a piece of paper and submitting it.
I guess it was more of her attempt to get me to give it a try without giving up so soon, thinking about whether or not I could do it or not. |
