Parenting

1 of Britt's classmates is on her 3 car that her parents bought her

Yep mommy & daddy bought her first car a 2 yr old toyota camary....she totalled it 2 months later....then mommy & daddy bought her a brand spanking new Ford F-150 and she crashed a year later....mommy & daddy got it fixed but she wanted a Ford Mustang for her 18th birthday....and guess what!!!!!!!

Yep mommy & daddy bought her a brand new 2008 Mustang for her 18th birthday 2 months ago.  Mommy & Daddy pay for the insurance and gas and maintenance on all of the vehicles.

Its those kind of parents that I cant stand and very judgemental with.

  • Sound like shoddy parenting. For me my parents bought me my first car and paid for my insurance, gas and maintenance, they paid for college and I did well, they paid for grad school and did really well. Even though they so generously financed all of that I was respectful and took care of my responibilties...same deal with my siblings.

  • That's a little excessive if you ask me. How long are they going to keep buying cars for her?!
  • My BIL (dh's brother) had 4 cars before he graduated high school. Every time he'd get a ticket or in a wreck, daddy would get him out of it, not even having to go to driving school (he's a lawyer and knows practically everyone, so would just pull whatever strings he needed to) and then buy him a new car. Like the car was the problem. They're still buying his cars, and he's 22 or 23. He's on car 7, I think.

    DH was given a car, too, and actually ended up trading his dad for his car. And then traded it for a camaro. And then another car. Spoiled brats, really. Luckilly DH got out of that stage young.

  • I went to hs with a girl who got a remodeled '57 Chevy when she turned 16. Soon after, she decided she wanted something else. They wouldn't buy it, so she wrecked the Chevy. They bought her what she wanted.... a lifted Suburban. By the time she was a senior she wanted a Corvette. So she wrecked the Suburban, and guess what she drove up in shortly before she graduated?

  • A guy I went to HS with - his parent's bought him a brand-new truck for his 16th birthday, but it wasn't the model he wanted - so they bought him a 2nd one (yes, so he kept both).
