I totally understand man but really i have never had a need to work. I travel all summer and have money to do whatever i want with.

but where are you getting all this money?

it sounds bad, but my parents they dont care they will give me money for anything and everything as long as i am still in school, i am in high school right now. and next year i will be university, which they are paying for house and all.

yeah my parents are like that to but I really wanted them to respect me (I am not saying yours don't) but my brother never asked for money and I can see how much my parents respect him for it.
So I wanted to do the same I pay for my own house and for school. And it feels great well others rely on there parents or OSAP (student loans) I feel great knowing that I will never have any debt

ya, its great i realy respect people who work hard to get where they are. My main reason i never worked is sports, i am big into baseball now because i had to choose between that and hockey a couple years ago,was into both heavily. and really my family always travels so holding down a job was never really practicle i guess in a sense.

Understandable about always moving but being big in sports is kind of lame. I was huge into sports but I always made time to work and I still do

I come from a family where i dont really need to work at all, and i travel all the time for both sports and pleasure. So my parents never really forced me to get a job when i was younger, so i just had a normal, fun childhood (not saying you cant have a good childhood working or anything like that) and now i am focusing on school over the last year or so, so i choose not to work. Maybe because of this i will lack skills or something else when it comes time to go into the work world. i wouldent change it for anything, because when i am 30+ been work in the same job for however long, i think i will look back on this time and remember it.

I really do see your point and I respect you as much as I would if you had a job and I think we both make some really good points here which is nice.


I also think its good for the soul to have a **** job when your younger it makes you have alot more respect for people and makes you a better customer and you know the value of the dollar

All I have to say about this is don't grow up faster than you have to. If you can get away with not working and enjoy life a little more, DO IT.

EDIT: If you enjoy work, do that, but if you don't...

I hate work and I have been working forever and I am not grown up most of the time.
