My mom makes me clean the house then she does not pay me for all the work that I have done?
Question:
Answers:
You poor thing (sarcasm), do you know the average cost of raising a child is around $160,0000. Do you get fed everyday? Have somewhere clean and dry to sleep? Have clothes on your back? Well get over it, it can suck not getting any money to buy things but just have a talk to your mother about it, she probaly doesn't even realise how upset you are about it.
Dont think i'm old for saying that I'm just 20.
You should not get paid for it- it is called CHORES!
do you pay rent?cuz if you dont then y r u complaining
She pays the rent, the utilities and the phone bill... and she makes sure you have food every day right?
she probably keeps a roof over your head and food in your stomach... i had it the same way as a child
Do you wanna pay HER back for all the work she did and things she bought you when you where a baby/kid?
i wish i got paid for all the work i did when i lived at home
are you a loafer?
Wait until your old enough to have a job.Then you can pay her for all the time she's spent on you.Until that happens be grateful she's asked you to help out.You can never repay her. A good Mum is worth thousands.
Do you pay rent?
Do you pay for the food you eat and the work to cook it?
'
'If not, then you're working off your debt.
Are you living in her house? Are you paying her rent or money for the bills? If not than i say doing work around the house is your way of paying for that roof over your head and the food in your tummy.
Perhaps she is preparing you for the road ahead. No one is entitled to free income.
You perform a few chores, and in return, I'm sure you have a roof over your head.
Typical rents in Massachusetts, run from $800 to $1200 / month unless you live in the city. I have no idea what rents are there.
Thank God for her guidance. When you do get a job, please contribute by paying 50% of your salary for room and board.
You my friend are lucky to have her!
Does your Mom give you a roof over your head? Does she provide you with food and a safe place to sleep? Does she make sure you have adequate clothes to wear? Does she buy you luxury items, stuff that's not essential to your survival? If the answer to all these is yes, then on top of that you want her to pay you for cleaning up what is partially your mess? That's really not much to complain about, kid. I doubt you'll find a better deal anyplace else in this world.
Have you paid her for all the work that she has done for you ?
Has she ever asked you to pay for a single meal in your life? For the food that's put on the table? For your clothes, and the furniture in your room? Do you have a pet? Who pays the expenses for that? Who paid for all your toys when you were little and your little luxuries now?
Who drives you to your friends house, to school, or to extracurricular activites ? Do you pay her for the gas?
I'm willing to bet that at Christmas time and birthdays, you get a heap of presents, and what does she ask for in return?
Nothing. because she does it simply because she loves you.
Hun, It's time to pay back all the love, money and worry that went into raising you, and you need to show some maturity and start looking at things from both sides.
I think it is the responsibility of each family member to help clean the house and do all of the chores, you included! She shouldn't HAVE to pay you.
speaking as a mom myself, I applaud each of the above answers and say with much humor, I can't WAIT until you're a mom and your ungrateful child complains about how YOU are..lol
Come to my house. I will pay you! You do not say how old you are, but I hope you still have time for yourself and are not doing ALL of the house work. As a mother of five, I feel that if you are helping out around the house.you deserve some allowance for what you do. Good luck!
She PAYS you? Lucky bugger! I remember doing that for FREE! And I had 3 very messy brothers! Better to learn while you can. Housework is NEVER done and when you are all grown up, there will be even more whether you have children of your own or not!
you did not say how old you are but you do live there. How else do you expect to learn. Did she say she would pay you? If so that is different. She has broken a promise. I feel you should work together moms are for teaching. If something should happen to her and you were left alone would you be able to live with someone else and care for yourself? This is her job to train you
As much as you probably wish you were getting paid, your parents (mother) are (is) just teaching you important life skills... you may not realize it now, but i can tell you from personal experience i wouldnt have the drive to work hard for a living and for money in a paying job if it wasnt for all the hard work i did at home with my family growing up... you'll appreciate it later... and by then you will be getting paid :)
Ugh! You kids are all the same!
She pays you with food, clothing, education and a roof over your head. If you want money go get a job.
Your mother carried you for nine months in her womb, after your were born, she wiped the poop off your butt and picked the vomit out of your hair. Sat up with you until the wee small hours of the morning when you were sick. She makes sure you have food to eat, a roof over your head,and clothes on your back.
You on the other hand, pay no rent, pay no utilities, buy no groceries, don't pitch in for gas money, and you have the nerve to want to be paid for your chores. The one thing your are doing for the person who gave you life? Do I have that right?
