kids that think they are too good to actually work? read my answer and see why? ive had an extremly hard life and i actually did all that ''crap'' work as she says!

i have went without a lot of things i needed sometimes and i have went without food before! she doesnt know what hard is! she needs to be knocked off that high horse of hers and learn to the real value of a dollar!

and i dont care if she reads it and doesnt like it or how many more kids dont like it!

i have worked hard for things in my life! my parents are split up and like i said mom cant work! she wants to but cant! i hope life bites that little girl in the a*s and hard!

thanks i have worked hard it makes me angry when i hear spoiled little brats like her! i have a cell phone but its simple it just makes calls and has a camera in it its one of the cheapest ones i could get but it works ok i pay for it i saved a lot of money for it and i work for things i have!

i have had 5 hours of sleep in one night and got up did my chores went to school did my homework on the way home and did actual work to have a little money! she isnt no better than the rest of us to actually work! it wont kill her!

my mom will sometimes have such bad problems that she wont be able to even dress herself so that means i do

school


work

cooking

cleaning

and take care of her and run errands!

thanks and on top of that im a straight a student and always have been she hasnt seen hard until she knows what its like to go without and do a lot of the things ive done!

my mother didnt pay me for doing chores my phone is a basic one its not great but hey it does its job the only reason i have it is for work purposes to call my mom when i decide to take OT for a little more money!! my mom gives up a ot for me&my brothers bot are now grown but one struggles and like me has had it hard hes had it a lot worse though and i mean a lot we both had abusive fathes but he was abused in many ways by his and mine too! mom has sacrificed a lot shes went days without eating so us kids could!

i would never disrespect my mother because

shes struggled for a long time to try to give us things we needed and has done everything in her power to try and improve our livesi have the deepest respect for my mother because my father is a real sorry a*s he doesnt pay child support like hes supposed to and mom doesnt have money to fight him so me&her also crochet and knit when we find the time and sell that stuff for money so you know i know for sure that one day i hope to be as good as a mom as my mother has always been to us her children and would most def consider myself a disgrace if i got on this high horse like that kid did because i know what its like to struggle whereas she doesnt!

thanks for the applause but on top of that i actually have very decent manners except for when i see spoiled brats like her i have worked hard for everything in my life and more importantly my mother has and it makes me so angry to see kids like her and read the little comments about ''crap'' jobs,it felt like worse than a kick in the face to me like she was downing all those who take these jobs!

Answer 1

There is only one job where you start at the top and work your way down - and that's posthole digger. Once these insolent little cretins get it through their thick little heads, the better off they will be! Wow, and you're 16?! I know people twice your age who don't have half of your work ethic! When I hear from young people like you, it makes me feel a little better about this country's future.

Answer 2

I hear you! I was working cows and riding a tractor every chance I had when I was her age. Not so much because I needed money but I loved the work. I helped my grandfather on the farm and nothing suited me better at that age, except maybe fishing! She's one of those people who will end up in a bind one day and having to take a crappy job that she hates because she feels she was too good for some of the ones she passed up. OR, she may ride the government system because she's too lazy to take a job that requires working her way up to the top.

Answer 3

I agree. I used to babysit a VERY active 2 year old from 6
AM til about 5 or 6 PM...in fact...he was often with me until around 9 PM...and i'm not exaggerating....i wish i were...but i did that with no breaks during the day!....But I learned from it. Everybody needs to work for things.

Answer 4

I understand exactly. I did a lot of the same things you did. I babysat 4 kids while their mom took a course at the college to better herself for her kids and only got $1.50 an hr. I worked at fast food places and helped mow yards and a lot of things to help out myself and my mom. I agree with you 100% and gave you a thumbs up for your answer to her. Bravo to you!!

Answer 5

Yes.

And, your answer is a good one. You are one awesome 16-year-old. You are going to do so well in life because you understand working hard and the value of a dollar. Not to mention the meaning of family and respect for your mother. Good for you and hugs to you.

Answer 6

Truth hurts doesn't it. What you said was right on. Kids these days have it so easy and yet they still complain. I have a boss like that (yuk) she never ever has had to work for anything in her life and she whines like a school room sissy all the time. I just want to slap her! But I agree with what you said 100% I am proud of you for saying what needed to be said!

Answer 7

What would be intrestering to me is to see these spoiled brats to have to go through the depression now thats hard times!

Answer 8

Spoiled brats like her make me sick. As if owning the whole freaking mall in your closet and getting a new cell phone every month isn't enough.

Answer 9

I want a job me me me I don't want to work blah blah. The girl needs a good kick in the head.

Answer 10

I agree with you! When I was 13 I took a "crap" job. It was babysitting. But hey when you need money, you have to work for it!.
