what one must do to cope up with the guilt of having wasted his parents hard earned money??

Answer 1

A very good thing which has already happened that you realised the money you wasted was a hard earned money by your parents.
If you are feeling bad, it means that you know the value of money and also that the good and the bad use of money.

Now comes the acceptance part, you need to accept this before your parents. I know this needs a courage, but believe me this acceptance will make you not to do such thing in future. Although your parents will be sad about the money is wasted but they will surely appreciate that you have realised it. It is the most tough part but you MUST do it.

Third step is situation dependant.You might want to pay back that money from your earning. Do whatever you can in your capacity to earn money and pay it back to your parents. But as I said this depends upon situation like your age, the amount etc...

Best luck..

Answer 2

Accept your mistake.Work hard and try to give or do things that make your parents happy. It is very difficult for any person to just forget about the hard earned money but they will be more happy to see that there is a change in their son, and that too a positive one.But never show your greatness to your parents that you are earning for them or they are dependent on you. As a son it is your duty to look after your parents and that too after having wasted your parents hard earned money.

Answer 4

Be a good son. For ex. they want you study hard then do it in exchange for their money. I feel the same thing that i'm not living according to their expectations and they've already spent so much money on me. To the point of being spoiled. They also trust me so much that I don't think I earned what they're giving. Just do the things that you know that would make them happy.

Answer 5

Well begin is half done. Accepting the fact itself takes you halfway. Obviously, if you have guilty feeling, only way to overcome is undo the same by feeling proud by ensuring you make up for the loss. By multiplying the earnings. This may be blessings in disguise to awaken you. COME ON Start now. Aim initially for recovery then go ahead gradually. Best wishes. You will do it.

Answer 6

i'm sure all the kids waste their parent's money sometime or the other. but the good part is that u realised it and u r feeling bad for it.

atleast now, stop taking money from them and u earn money and give them the things which they always wanted to buy but never had the money to buy.

Answer 7

If you're at about age 16 and above, you can do part time jobs and repay you parents little by little, but the best solution is admit th truth, tell them you're sorry, never repeat it again and regain your parents trust by being industrious and responsible at home. They may feel better when you help them at home and show them respect. Youre guilt will be removed when you will get together well. Goodluck =P

Answer 8

You are feeling guilty that means you have realised your mistakes, thats more than enough for your parents. Just keep in mind not to repeat the same in future. Think and consult before every step. Just tell your parents sorry you'll feel much lighter and you would have confidence to start again in life.

Answer 9

Go to Luke 15 in the Bible and read the account of the Prodigal son.

You aren't the first, you won't be the last, but you could probably learn alot from this Biblical account of another son who did the same thing.

Answer 10

Go to your parents, hug them, tell them you are sorry for wasting there efforts and money. And now onwards be responsible towards them. The moment you confront your parents they will be proud of you for your honesty. They may show some bit of annoyance, but the final outcome would be sweet. Trust me, that's the way I got out of it...
