Here's some things u can do:\n\n1) First of all, talk to your mum and tell her that u want to be responsible and earn money from doing chores (ones u wouldn't normally do).  Tell her what u want the money for and she might reconsider.  Dont pressure her though.  Offer to do jobs u wouldnt normally do (eg. washing walls/windows/gardening/cleaning out cupboards/helping cook dinner/doing the dishes/vacuming/pegging out the washing/ironing).  The trick is to offer to do jobs for her that arent your normal chores because your normal chores probably involve cleaning up after yourself and making your bed etc..\n\n2) If that dosnt work, u can deliver catalouges/newspapers\n\n3) Offer to do a relatives housework, tell them what u want the money for and explain that u are willing to work to get it\n\n4) If none of these work, offer to wash your neighbours/families cars for them if they give you some money.  Make sure you tell them what u want the money for.\n\n5) Here in Australia, we have trolleys that u put 20cents or $1 in to get it and when u return it u get your money back.  If you are old enough to go to the shopping centre u can look for trolleys to take back to the trolley return to get the money.  Lots of young people do that here.\n\n6) If none of these work, if u are old enough, u could ask your neighbours or family if you could babysit their kids in return for some money\n\n7)If none of these work, try talking to your mum nicely again.  Dont pressure her but tell her that its important to you and u dont want her to GIVE you the money for nothing and that u are prepared to EARN it by doing jobs and having good behaviour.\n\nHope one of these suggestions help you and u raise the money! Goodluck!

Do you not get an allowance? If not, speak to your parents about "fair wages" for "extra chores".. You and your friend could look into Volunteer work, at first you think there isn't any money in that, but, if you volunteer at a Nursing Home, you can "push" the wheelchair seniors around for a walk, you can read to them, you can write/print letters for them, help them cut their food, all kinds of things.  An other volunteer job is with the local Humane Society. Helping feed and clean the animals. Both these volunteer positions will enhance your prospects. For babysitting or child care/ you will have experience. You can take a Free course at your local Y.M.C.A and get a certificate that Proves your qualified to babysit. Ask your neighbours if you can help for pay. Clean the basement, the garage, walk the dog, go to the store for them. With all that said, try a little entrepreneurship,(that means working for yourself,for money). i.e. hand made Christmas Cards, 6 to a box (and you can make the box) - $5.00 - fancy note paper, make it on the computer, (make the box) 20 sheets (small) $5.00 - how about jewelry - you can buy all the stuff at the Dollar Store. The craft book you can borrow from the library. So there are some ideas - ps - talk to your teachers - see if they need help, shopping, wrapping, decorating, but make sure They know your looking to get paid. Oh - if your a good student, you can tutour lower grade kids and get paid.

Well, have your parent(s) check your state's website for work age - you may be able to get a part-time job. You could maybe get a paper route, or since the weather is getting nicer out (I don't know where you live), you could offer to cut lawns - doing a really good job will get more money and referals to cut other people's lawns. And, if you do the lawns long enough - you could turn it into a business. If there are elderly in your neighborhood - offer to pick up light groceries (milk, bread...) for them, take pets for walks, do yard work in the warm months, shovel snow in the winter. Ask parents if there's any work around the house, outside of regular chores, that you could help with. I'm sure you are a resourceful kid, and I've given you some ideas for you to build on.  Good luck!

That arrangement is entirely up to you and your parents. What ever makes all of you comfortable. Some leave, some don't. If you do stay though, you should help contribute to the household income or at least do a decent amount of work around the house to help pay for your keep.

Go to your neighbors and see if there are any chores you can do for them that they'd be willing to pay for --- such as walking their dog, pulling weeds in their yard, washing their car, etc.\n\nGood luck sweetie!

I did just last week.  The elastic band in my last pair of underwear finally broke.  My mom's to poor to buy me new ones and the thrift store doesn't wash theirs before they sell them anyway.  Next month when I turn 36, I told mom I'm gonna get some money for us some how.  I'll try and find her a second job if that's what it takes,  cause I'm tired of crying my eyes out.

Ask your mom. She will probably do it for even 1$.

What my mom did was after high school, she made me pay rent. It was 100.00 a month and if I didn't pay it, she would kick me out. That will convince her to atleast get a job and assume  some responsibility. Give her some chores and if she doesn't do them, sell her stuff on Ebay. Check out my link.

You could help them around the house as much as possible by cleaning, fixing or doing chores for them. Especially if there is something they need to pay someone else to do (like house painting or yardwork). There are many places you could work at 17, including resturants, grocery or retail stores, washing cars, anything. If you can afford to buy your own food and transportation you will unload a huge burden from your parents.

Get a job make your own money and go where YOU want.  Let your mom know you love her and are grateful but it's time for you to stand on your own and be a man :) \n\nGood luck nene

considering you are not at home asking this question and at work...take this time to look for part time jobs in the evening.  If you are cleaning an apartment every few weeks, why not try to do your own little side gig and do more houses or apartments.  If you have family that is willing to help watch the children while you earn extra $$ that is your answer.  If you are unable to pay your bills off you can consider filing for bankruptcy - it screws your credit for 7 years, but if you're not getting anywhere on the bills, then it's an option.  My mom raised 3 children, went without eating and things for herself so that we could have clothes and such.  We shopped at good will and i didn't know any better, i thought it was the greatest thing goin.  As much hoopla as people put on presents, it's about being with your family and making the most of the time together.  I would consider asking family to help watch the kids while you work a second part time job to earn more money, when you work hard for your family and prove that, people are more willing to help out.  Good luck and god bless!

Obviously your mother is trying to manipulate you with that guilt trip. But you have to consider your age and whether or not you have any fiscally stable relatives in the nearby area, or responsible friends.\n Consider why you don't want to move in with her, then you must in the kindest way possible tell her why. Most importantly, you have to have a place to stay before you can have this converstation with her. If that doesn't work, try getting a job if you're having a lot of problems at home.

sounds like you need more help then u can find on the internet. I say bake some cookies and do a secret santa.\nwhen our family was down and out my mom just got us all to make our presents.\nit may not be glamoruos,but we had more fun then we would of had if we had gotten what we couldnt afford. And it sounds like u may need to go to court for child support(27%of his income for each child with most cases, that would help)
