@scalingstories: My parents started charging me rent when I got into college and gave me back the money after I graduated, so I'm cutting them off and they'll never hear from me again. Plus one update. u/Potential_Let_3651. u/No-Fishing-4775. #scalingstories #storytime #reddit #redditstories

I thought this guy was kind of an idiot and then he talked about giving money to Pierre Poilievre and moving out west and confirmed it. Total ding dong.

OP’s rent was 750 CAD a month, so over 4 years that’s at least 36k or more. He also had student loans because his parents didn’t want to support him.

Honestly, I’m kinda confused how they didn’t notice him working himself so hard because of their lack of support. Especially with not making their other kids do the same? Clearly they have favorites

If the parents asked for a small amount (~$100) a month and then gave it back to him as a graduation gift with interest that would be awesome! but they overworked this poor guy and didnt care abouthim

It’s not the money, he makes that clear, but also the fact they tried to give it back… like all the time and effort just for it to be for nothing. Just the money back. Not invested, no add on.

So they put "effort" in to teaching the value of money and work to the only kid that was already doing it responsibly

If it was a small rent then it wouldn’t be so bad but sounds like he was working a full time job to manage school plus their rent.

Like, I get the idea. Acting as a sort of savings account and planning to give him a windfall to start his life after college. it wasnt right, but i get the point behind it.

Why are parent dead set on financially crippling their kids from the very start of adulthood?

I understand the principle of tearing up the check but I'm glad he got it in the end because that's his money and they would've spent it on his spoiled siblings

Parents returned the money plus interest. They had their hearts in right place. I wonder if he ever communicated with them his exhaustion or ever made them aware of how he felt.

Social life/networking is important. So important that guys who have lower grades but join fraternity outearn their peers with better grades. So that pittance parents gave was useless in the end.
