So the project just finished and I have no work to do yet. Someone is calling me for typing service and I will do that soon. Been staying at home for a while, and mum just now nag me, she said "don't you dare ask money from your dad" and I said I have not much left, dad gave me RM10 today and did not gave mom because he don't have it. Mum blamed me for not working regularly, I said I can if I am well enough, I got easily tired and lose focus. And she said if dad don't need to give me money, then he will be enough for her only.

Hello wongchoiyee, forget about what your mom said, it's horrible enough for you to get sick but it's even horrible for her to nag you around. this shows how selfish she is and doesn't realize how hard it is for you to find work. it's the economy that's why no one's getting the right job. just keep saving money when there's enough for you. better yet, don't take you moms nagging personally.

I agree the economy is so bad but I find some people dont see how hard it is until they actually try to work for themselves . I remember my mother telling me when I was in high school that I can easily get a job , I was like "maybe in your days " lol

Hi wong! I am a mother too. Personally, I would not force my child to work if she cannot do it for the moment. Although I would advise her that it is better if you have a good job. Maybe your mom just want you to be more mture at somepoint. Have a nice day!

I looked at your profile and learned that you are 31 years old. I think it is time for you to make a living for yourself. Even it is the time for you to have your own family. You shall have a job and saving. It is responsible for yourself because you are not a child any more. It is not good to ask for money from parents at this age. After all, they may be retired and they don't have an income, too. In fact you shall give them money instead. I started to give my parents money when I have my job.

Well, I think that at your age you should start to be living independently so that you won't be hearing the nagging of your mom.

Mothers are sometimes unpredictable, she might be not used of you staying at home. You can talk to her about it. I am sure she will be enlighten for knowing your activities in life.

Actually I can understand what you are experiencing.I also need to work and can't stay at home .In fact,no matter how I hated working ,I sticked to it because the more stressful thing was that staying at home to hear my mother's nag.Before I can understood her,I always thought that she just want me to make money and she didn't understand me.However,after a conversation with her,I understand finally that she is scared of my escaping from the real society.She thinks that it is time for me to work hard and I should make efforts to achieve what I should do.Actually,she doesn't need my salary,she just need my active attitude towards my life.Finally,I hope you can recover soon.And have a good talk with your mother.Good day.
