Is this legal?

[Police Girl]

My parents have just decided for any missing assignments I have in school, they're going to fine me a large sum of money, I say this is bullshit and probably isn't legal, what do you guys think?

Legal maybe, but it's stupid.

Just another couple of parents that think homework will solve everything, it seems.

Incidentally, how much are they charging and what happens if you can't pay?

[CephiYumi]

O-Of course it's legal, it's probably their money that they've given to you in the first place ^^;

[Dexter Dexter]

Legal, yes, but stupid. Why fine your children over some measly homework?

Not really, considering its MY money that I earned from Mcdonalds fair and square. I believe they said $25 for EACH SINGLE missing assignment.

Oh right, I forgot to mention that I have 3 classes im failing (Speech due to a shitty teacher, Geometry due to a teacher who doesn't care, and US History because of shitty class hours.) And close to failing two more (1 is gym with an overbearing teacher and fucktarded seniors, and another with the same shitty teacher as the one im failing (Speech and English... [tornado fang]ing hate it.) And don't think im not trying...

[Satoryu]

Well if it's money you've earned, that ain't right. Not sure if it's really illegal, though. Just mean.

Have you considered the possibility that this is an empty threat to scare you into doing your work?

[Kieran]

What the hell're they going to do if you tell them no?  Beat you up and take it?

Just keep it somewhere they can't find it.

[CephiYumi]

I pretty much did nothing in my high school years but I always blamed everything on myself, you are blaming everyone BUT yourself o.o
My parents would have had every right to charge me for missing things

[Police Girl]

Hmm... going to do the same thing that I do with my PC and my other stuff, hide it so my parents can't take it. They act smart but they're pretty stupid.

Okay, I'm sorry, but your folks are plain stupid.

Also: You could take $25 or so from them and give it to them when necessary. Winky winky.

[Archer]

why don't you just not give it to them

i don't see what the big deal is

Well, they are his parents. They could do something like stop paying for internet service and poor Kallen could be stuck watching shitty cable shows like Curb Your Enthusiasm during his free time.

Do what I do when my parents demand money from me.

Tell them to go [tornado fang] themselves and get a [tornado fang]ing job if they're that destitute that they need to bum off their offspring.

I blame them because they think the best solution to help is to [sonic slicer] and moan. I don't blame them exclusively, I blame myself enough. I mean, I could do this or I could do work, I have no decision making skills, My prioritizing is way off.

And for the record they both have jobs... Good old salary jobs, while I have a wage. They have enough [tornado fang]ing money, they keep insisting that I'm not going to graduate on time with my class, I keep telling them they need to stop saying [parasitic bomb] like that as it isn't helping, they also keep saying stuff like "you need to keep your grades up" or "Don't miss any assignments". That really doesn't help me... Neither does the schools habit of putting hard to concentrate in classes in the morning, Like History (Social Studies is my worst subject, every year its been in the morning.) or English...

[tornado fang] I hate the fact that my parents keep checking my grades online, granted thats what they "should" be doing, but I don't like it...

Ah... that works too. It won't work if your parents are Asian, though (I speak from personal experience).

[Gaia]

If they are just gonna give you this much trouble, burn your money out all at once so they won't get thier grubby hands on it..



















.... Or move out, if yer old enough.

Although trying to support oneself by working at McDonald's is what people like to call IMPOSSIBLE.

I'm being the voice of reason here,

just do the damn work.

Other than that, have fun.

Oh, look. Someone's lucky! Well, good for you!

[Romantic Fool]

I see.

[Police Girl]

My parents mainly have this obsessive problem with taking stuff away from me based on schoolwork, which doesn't work for me clearly, it doesn't stop them. Maybe its because they aren't past 40 years old yet. they still think active parenting actually works... As if. 

[Romantic Fool]

Active parenting works to an extent, but if it's clearly not working and they're as dumb as you say they are, tell it to them straight, no?

[Girla PurpleHeart]

No, it's just plain stupid that your parents do it if you missed assignments. Good think that there's make-up work for students who were absent from school. But why would your parents do that?
