Re: Do you ask your parents for money?

I have never asked for money. My parents are really generous and have done a lot for us, but I would never ask them for money for frivolous things. I could never imagine asking my mom for money to buy a new purse or shoes or something else not necessary.

Re: Do you ask your parents for money?

No, luckily we have never had the need to do that.

IMO the situation described is ridiculous.

I have had to ask my dad to borrow some money even since I have been unemployed but I always pay him back. I hate to do it but I know that he understands why I have to ask.

No we don't.
And they don't have it to give.

No we never ask. But our parents are very generous with us & give us many gifts & we feel lucky for that.

I have never asked. But if I did, they would give me whatever I needed -- even if they didn't have it.

Re: Do you ask your parents for money?

Never ever ever. To be honest I am a little more "secure" than my mom- she is retired and on a fixed income. Same thing for DH's Dad, he is also on a very limited income.

ETA: My mom does help us out in other ways though- she will be watching our LO for us next year- free of charge!

Re: Do you ask your parents for money?

I have never asked for money from them even in hard times.

I don't like owing anything to anyone. I would work 2-3 jobs before asking.

DH used to help his dad once in a while with his CC so no, he never asked. They both passed so that will not be happening.
