  • I don't manage that's what I'm telling you, I CANNOT afford to pay my way after Christmas even if I stop driving lessons and keep "essentials of life" like eating to a minimum until then

    this is getting better and better.............:rotfl:
    so how do you manage? who pays for the essentials of life driving lessons....from your summer job money (good!) you earn it, you spend it!


    :rotfl: :rotfl: do you want carrots and peas with your chicken?


    What do you have at home (Tv? DVD? PC? Laptop? Mobile phone?)

    Also buses, walk!
    lunches , take a packed lunch!

    Parents who earn less than your family are getting support for items such as those above they cant afford without the assistance

    You do come across as extremely naive and childish

    Well reading your posts I would place you at 14 but I'm getting feeling that your nearer 17. In which case I would say grow up!

    Do the dishes for your mum and maybe she'll give you a fiver.

    I do the dishes, washing, cleaning and shopping everyday and cut the grass once a week.
  • Take a packed lunch to school. In a Spiderman lunchbox.

    Your 17! at least

    Get a !!!!!!! job, regardless of what your school says

    17YO's should be working and supporting themselves even part time, your school is clearly delusional- its probably private:rolleyes:

    As for references, well if you cant find anyone to give you one Id suggest thats your own fault

    at 17 I could have asked countless people for references, such as people you babysat for, extra curricular activities, family friends, people I had mentored

    Either your just not seeing people in front of you or your not very good

    i.e even a friend you've helped with work or that at school can give you one

    No I don't have any of them, I'm on my friends computer at the moment in his house. I do walk 3 miles to and from school everyday to save on the bus fare when I can (e.g. not when I've just done 2 hours of running in P.E. as I can't force myself to walk for a further 45 minutes) and this lets me buy a sandwich at lunch. I agree tho, from now on I will get up earlier and make a packed lunch.

    I'm not sure how familiar you are with the references I am referring to but I am supposed to get them from an adult in a position of responsibility according to the form.

    I know fine what a reference is
    They can be provided by anyone whom you feel is in a position to go on record for your ability or character

    i.e the local mcdonalds crew member you've been chatting to for a few weeks wont count but a schoolfriend you've mentored or a family you've babysat for could

    Your clearly naive and tbh Im not convinced your real

    Tell me exactly what posessions you do have, what income/outgoings you have, and why your parents dont give you anything at all?
