i am telling my parents that get me a vehicle so that i can easily travel to my tutions and wherever i want to, but they are not getting me one they are saying that their father didnt get one for them so why should they get it for me.
why do they do so? will they ever change? they try and do all that with their children that their parents did to them. they say that earn and get it on your own. what do they get on repeating all this..........

sagar ,I totally disagree with you,its not that they are not geeting you but instead i think its totally because of complexity, that you have that kind of thinking or attitude.also they are not trying to do everything that their parents did with them because they i think neither they went to a public school nor they went to tutions.and also riding a vehicle is not a neccesity and as far as scolding of parents is concerened its only because of our well being in future and as a good friend i"ll advice you to change this kind feeling.............

Hello sagarthe7th! I do understand what you mean but our parents knows best. I have some options about your situation.
First is that they can't just afford it. I don't know you and your family so I am not sure about it.
Second is that they just don't want you to be spoiled like other children. Other children who were spoiled will grow up bad.
Lastly, they are just thinking about your safety and that having a vehicle is dangerous.

I dont know what the situation is ....either they dont have that much cash to spend right now OR they just want you to be responsible enough and that is why they ask you to earn on your own and get what you require. See there has to be a reason, they have raised you and given you everthing , why is it that now they are behaving like this?

well maybe they want you to learn what's it like to go and work for things you want. i didn't buy my kids any car, but i did co sign for one for of my kids. but if you show them you are willing to work and save up for a down payment then maybe they will help you out.
not just here is a car enjoy. more parnets should be like your's and then kids or young adults will learn to get what you want you go and work for it. not just give whatever to them

Get you a part time job and buy one of your own. If you don't need it bad enough to be willing to work for it then you don't need it bad enough for your parents to give it to you. Your parents are not going to be around always for you to depend on so learn to stand on your own two feet now before you are forced to do so. I bought my first car when I was 13. I worked odd jobs all summer to pay for it. It wasn't but $35 but in the early 50's that was a pretty good chunk of money for a kid to come up with.
