Chances are alot of you have it going good. There are higher chances that you don't know HOW good you have it.
I usually don't write these kinds of things, but I feel like I should about this.
So here's what's up, really; My mother works full time at Wal Mart (which is hell) and is never home, and my father has to work TWO jobs to make enough money for us to get by. My dad has almost no free time whatsoever. He delivers auto parts for one job, and medicine for the other. At night and day. He sleeps from around 3pm to 8pm. On top of that, he drives my sister to work and for whatever reason my mom always starts arguments with him. He is becoming blind in one eye. He used to be an engineer, but got fired for whatever reason, thus he now has new crappy jobs with only one day off on Sunday.
So yes, be happy you aren't my dad and make the most of it. That isn't wgat I was getting to, but it's still something to think about.
The point is, I was always angry that my parents were never home to take me anywhere to hang out with my friends or whatever it is I want to do. But then after thinking about the stuff my parents go through so that I can get an education and have a good life, I felt like a huge doucher. So I'm just going to enjoy what I have and try to make the most of myself so I can have a better life than my parents, because that's what they want me to do.
So in conclusion, take advantage of what you have and respect your parents (if I went through all that and had disrespectful kids, I don't think I'd be able to handle it).
my dad hasnt been able to find work in 2 years,my mom is only able to work 4 days a month.our roof leaks,our house is in terrible condition and we can only pay our bills thanks to my grandparents.no,we dont have wifi,im on the neighbors.and i saved my money for 2 years to get my dsi.i'd love to have your life but im thankful that even in my life,i still have food,chothing and shelter(even tho the shelter leaks). i hope things can get better for both of us!

Your sister needs to ride the bus if its that much of a problem. I assume you have Wi-Fi. And a DSi. So I doubt your as flooded with finacial issues as you make out to seem... But your life is pretty tough! I hope it gets better! I have alot of problem but none very serious. Im lucky to have a smart confident hard working mother her supports her children alone, and still have left over money! My life is good but no where near amazing. I look at the positive not negative. Its makes me happier
