    Wow, 400 responses to an obvious wind up thread. There are more bitter old 'youth of today' hating old farts on this forum than even I thought (and gullible ones at that).

    But you just replied so contributed to the thread :rotfl:

    Can you please give your opinion so I can show this to her to demonstrate how unfair she is being. I'm only 23 and trying to save up to move out but she wants me to go now as he cant afford to keep me. This makes me so angry as I'm hardly ever here

    No I didn't show my mother the replies. I wont give her the full amount as I deduct what I feel is fair. If she didnt want to pay for kids then she shouldnt have had them! I never asked to be born.

    But I dont speak to her anymore, just got straight to my room as I cant stand her. She hasnt even got a job yet, lazy fat cow.

    I said at the top of this page over 6 months ago that it was a troll.

    I wonder what's brought it trip-trapping back after all this time?

    But for all those like minded little oiks who don't want to pay board to their parents:
    if you treated me like this, you would be going straight to your room - for the last time to pack your bags and get the hell out of my house for good, you selfish little b!tch (to quote peachyprice).

    The fact that the OP is still living at home whilst treating her benefactress/mother with such pitiless contempt, which is going unpunished, is perhaps what made the daughter into the delightful specimen she is!

    Karma, Sweetheart, karma ....

    You say the OP is a troll but this thread reminds me of a weekend in Manchester.... We were on a tram and two teenage girls were behind me discussing Mothers Day which was the next day the conversation went like this:

    Have you got something for your mum tomorrow?

    Well, l suppose l had to get something, but it's only little. I mean why should she have anything? She chose to have ME so why should I thank her?

    Ungrateful little cow, maybe it was the op, God forbid there should be more than one child like that. :rotfl:


    Happy moneysaving all.
  • Sweetheart (need to find a bucket never as a big a misnomer have I seen).., please please please find a place to live. Your mum needs u to and u need u to do this. I think a few people on here will help u to pack., the same day. But although you are pretty thick and selfish.., u know deep down that u are being childish because inspite of all the 'friends tell me its cheaper to live on my own' you are still living with your poor long suffering mum.

    I have never actually come across someone as unpleasant as this except in that programme called Young, Dumb and Living With Mum.., and all of them learned a lesson or two about their attitudes.

    How your mum must feel now I don't know. I get that u don't care about that.., but u know what.., you should. I also get that there is part of u that enjoys all the comments being made here, a part of u that thinks I can behave this badly and still have a home to live in. But u won't for long. That's a certainty.
  • I remember at 16 when I got my first job my mum told me I would be paying £50 a week rent and board !!! ouch !!! (that was 13 years ago).

    Now, my monthly outgoings are around £1600 .... I would kill to only be paying £50 again ! lol


    As for the OP, £100 to have a roof over your head, TV, food, washing etc. Honestly, the cost of living isn't as cheap as what you might think.

    As said, my (and my wifes) bills total over £1600 some months.

    You have -

    Mortgage payment/Rental payments
    Council tax
    Telephone bill
    Internet bill
    TV license
    Sky bill
    Food shopping
    House insurance
    Gas
    Electric
    Water
    General maintenance costs (carpets, tv's, fridge etc ....)
    Mobile phone bill

    If you honestly think that you can successfully achieve all of this with in a budget of £100 a week then I really hope you publish exactly how, Im sure many on here would be fascinated as to how you accomplish it.

    Im not even going to bother debating your morals regarding helping out your own mother to keep the family home (that you have full use of).

    What a blessing, I bet your mother can't believe her luck:j

    I still stand by what i originally said and cant understand why the OP cant see why she has to use x amount of her earnings for bills etc.

    I don't believe that it is a troll. The sense of loathing and malice that comes slithering off the page is too real for it all to be a wind-up.
