Maybe they have another reason for not letting you go. I, for one, know full well we could afford to pay for me to go to Harvard (provided I can get the scores :frustrated:).

We can't find the loans. so i went a found a place they could get the loans anyway. i hate them, and the money thing is just a lie, my dad's a freakin partner in business. my teacher at school, a single mom of three on a teacher's salary sent all three of her sons to private schools. They won't let me drive either. they're just crippling me, i hate them.

Replies moonpoolstar11 Posted at 4:55 am on Aug. 26, 2008 my parents are the same, but they have a sweet side too! so try and find it, i did find it... Scarlet Tears Posted at 4:39 am on Aug. 26, 2008 My mum is annoing sometimes She lies to me and doesnt listen very well and WAY overprotective But other from that shes da bomb. My dad favours my little sister. I also see my mum lie to my Nonno (Grandpa) so then she got me in the habbit of lieing to her about stuff. =S Im weird lol Satine Posted at 4:29 am on Aug. 26, 2008 Yes, parents can get a bit touchy about anyone having any idea how much they've got in the bank, so that might be it. I'd guess that it's true that they're not particularly rich: they won't be too ready to tell you of any debts they have either, regardless of what their income is. But they'd love to have the status implied by you not needing to request loans, grants etc., so they asked you not to do that. Annoying, impractical, but I guess for the time being, what they want, they get. And yes, they can get very annoying. My mum calls herself a 'very private person' and yet, when I still lived at home, she kept on 'accidentally' opening my wage slip envelopes.
