It's what I'd do if I were a father, to be sure
They must have bought you some things, otherwise you wouldn't be alive today. Just because they're not buying you what you want doesn't mean they're not spending money on your food, clothing, picking places to live with you in mind, supplies, etc.
Edit: I hope the irony of "kids are annoying...I whine 24/7 at my parents" isn't lost on anyone
True, but while my friends got new stuff like iPhones immediately, i got them 2-3 years later. And even then that phone didn't have space to take a single picture(i'm not even kidding).
EDIT: I also have a full wardrobe of clothes, and parents still rather spend my money on clothes instead of what i want
At least i'm not a son of tortoise parents i guess.
Oh my god if your parents lived in poverty I think you might die. Someone get this kid an iPhone, STAT, all his friends have one!!
Sometimes it's hard to argue against the "kids these days are entitled" argument as much as I want to...
Well if my parents have enough money to give my sister everything she wants, then i fell like i should get everything i want too.
Though i do admit that most of my arguments on being entitled come out of jealousy.
Personally I think that's why you don't get what you want in the first place...
Eh, my family had a lot of issues with money when we moved from Europe to the US. Mom and dad could hardly speak English - mom cried every night before going to college here because she couldn't understand the lectures. Took them a long while to get jobs decent enough to buy me things. I remember being turned down even for something worth a dollar or two and I was an only child. I didn't get a good phone until I was 20 or so.
But luckily they pushed through and are working decent jobs now. Well, my mom at least; dad's hoping to quit his when he finds something better. He's a driver with no set schedule so he could be called in at obscene times like 2AM. I feel sorry for him.
So really, while I can understand why you're jealous, your situation isn't bad at all. You'll be fine!
