I haven't asked my parents for a cent since I was `6 years old. When I was 16 I got my first part-time job.
From then in I never asked again even for school. I bought my own uniform and books and paid my own re-enrollment fee's.
In fairness my parents aren't very well off and have 6 other kids to worry about...

Darn sorry I mean't to type 16 not 6 lol. Still asking for money from your parents isn't a bad thing most of my friends still do. I don't no I felt kind of proud knowing that i was making my own money. Even though I bought my own stuff it wasn't like my parent's didn't buy food or clothes for me. I bought my own school supply's and for that past 5 years I've bought my family's turkey and ham at Christmas. It was better for me to start making my own money as I have 5 sisters and a brother and there younger so there needs where before mine. Thanks for saying I'm cute lol

I feel quite ashamed that I still ask my parents for money.
Yes, as a student from China, we have asked our parents for much money and it seems that we won't stop the action until we get married or own a big house. Under the surroudings of education and employment in China, it is difficult for us to find a part-time job to earn some extra moeny, so, we have to ask for money from our parents.
For the keen competition, we won't stop until we have found a steady job.

For this question,lots of Chinese student must be contemplate.In the shool life the obtain much from their parents.The all have a habit.Though they also get money with many ways,for example,do part-time job in winter vacation and summer vacation.But,a lot of people do this in their learning period,I think this is not good.So,if they stop to ask their parents for money, they will be feel very awful.
