Not sure how knowing how to cook makes you rich though, lol.
Also, both of your parents working makes your rich?

EDIT: Hrmm, I guess rich != spoiled but some of the questions still don't fit.

How is having a job in high school being spoiled? Seems the opposite.

This. Some of these questions really don't lean toward a reason for you to be spoiled growing up.

4.5 yes


3.5 if I don't count me working.


I think you should discount sports outside of school. Somehow, I don't think boxing made me spoiled. Mind should be 2.5 when all is said and done.

what about size of family? did you take a bus? did you walk to school? did you have after school chores?

etc..

Not to mention the generation gap on this board. things are much different now than 5 years ago, 10, 15, etc...

* and the allowance question.. I never got an allowance per say, but if I needed something I would have to work for it, my parents were usually fair on giving me lunch money aswell. But I never expected it.

This. Some of these questions really don't lean toward a reason for you to be spoiled growing up.


I'll be the judge of that!

Everything is relative.


what about size of family? did you take a bus? did you walk to school? did you have after school chores?

etc..

Not to mention the generation gap on this board. things are much different now than 5 years ago, 10, 15, etc...

* and the allowance question.. I never got an allowance per say, but if I needed something I would have to work for it, my parents were usually fair on giving me lunch money aswell. But I never expected it.


yeah, these questions suck. you should add:

- did you have to wear hand-me-downs or Salvation Army clothes?
- did your parents ever buy stuff on layaway?
- have you ever eaten government cheese?

7.

+1 if you want to count Pong as a gaming console.
-1 if you want to count me having 3 jobs and paying for my folks groceries while I was in university.

How is knowing how to cook being spoiled? I started cooking because I wanted hot meals, and ended up cooking for everyone. I never thought of that as a luxury, lol.

Did your parents buy you or give you a car (new or old)? yes, I got my Dad's old truck after he got a new one when I started college
Did your parents ever pay for any of your bills? (car insurance, phone, credit card etc.) insurance and phone, still on their plans for those. I have my own CC though.
Did you have your own room? not until we moved to our current house, shared with my brother
Did your family own a computer before the year 2000? yes, I still have the floppies that went in it too!

And I agree with the people above on some of the questions. How is having a babysitter that is not family part of being spoiled? Somehow I think it was cheaper for the next door neighbour to watch us, than to have a family member drive in out of town.


Same with the cooking question. Does having to do your own laundry count as being spoiled too?

Also, I seem to remember there being a lot more kids doing organized sports back then.

silly

Did your parents pay (in part or full) your college education? Not one red cent
Did your parents buy you or give you a car (new or old)? Yes my mother did (my parents are divorced)
Did your parents ever pay for any of your bills? (car insurance, phone, credit card etc.) No
Did you have your own room? Never

Did you have "Central Air" growing up? I lived all over the place so I don't know about Washington State and some other places when I was younger, but in Texas there's no such thing as a house without Central Air. Likewise in Texas it's impossible to find any place that will sell refrigerators without an ice machine. Not a relevant question.
Did you go out to dinner for anything other than special occasions? No
Did any of your parents not work? Yes, step-mom did not work outside the home
Did you ever have a babysitter that wasn't family? No
Did your family have a maid/housekeeper? lololol no




Yes- 7 (but in the interests of relevancy I would strike two of the yeses, maybe even three of them)

Not sure how anyone can answer No to this poorly worded question.




It's easy. No. My parents never paid for any of those things for me while I was living at home and sure as hell didn't pay for any of them when I moved out. If I wanted it I had to pay for it myself.

So you didn't have a drivers license or learners permit until you had a job?
You never used their house phone to call long distance?

That's why it's a poorly worded question. They paid for all of your bills until you had a job.

Explain the knowing how to cook one? I would think it should be opposite, if you can't cook it's because your parents do everything for you, or you all eat out all the time...

So you didn't have a drivers license or learners permit until you had a job?


A driver's license isn't a "bill". It's a one-time expense (the license itself was $30 and driver's ed was free). But no they never paid for my insurance, phone lines, they never even co-signed on anything for me. They had me on their insurance policy while I was living at home (and I didn't even get my license till I was 17) but if I wanted to keep my license (and not have it confiscated by them) I had to have a job and pay for the cost difference in insurance.

edit: and actually I had a job a year before I got my license. I worked at McDonald's and rode my bicycle to work and back. We lived about 3 miles away so it wasn't that bad. Even after I got my license, I didn't have my own car and didn't always have access to the family vehicle so I still rode my bicycle most of the time.

Dang- I don't know how they survived! We lived in North Texas and I can't think of a single place in the Dallas area without A/C. And I just remember my dad was SO MAD when shopping for a fridge right after we moved there because no one had them without ice makers (they were $100 more with the ice maker) and he didn't want to pay for one...he finally had to give up and get it with an ice maker, and he was so glad later that he did tongue

I also remember the car we moved down with was a Plymouth Valiant- the exterior was a glittery dark brown and the interior was black vinyl and there was no AC in the car (we had just moved from Washington State). That car was gone within the first couple months, rofl.

We spent a couple of summers without A/C because my parents couldn't afford it. Nights were the worst -- bathing before bed helped, but seemed like I spent half the night rolling around trying to find a spot that was still cool.

My grandfather never did have air conditioning where he lived in rural South Texas. Lots of folks in the area where he lived didn't have A/C, because they were dirt poor. A few still didn't even have indoor plumbing.

Oh, I guess my parents did pay for my books when I was doing dual-enrollment during high school, and I lived rent-free. Does that count as paying for my education? If so, I'm up to 18.

I mean, I will be the first to admit that I grew up fairly privileged in the financial department.

But that does not equate to growing up in a good household. Some people will never understand that.

She was a cool older (in her late 30's early 40's) broad that (now thinking back) i probably could have had sex with. I think she only ever woke me up when she wanted to get high, cuz there were times she never woke me and left me alone..... wow this is what i get when i hit the pipe before answering crap like this =P
