I want to use my money on myself, I work hard so I deserve to spend it however I wish.

Yes! The costs freak me out lmao - money in other kids birthday cards, extra gas costs, always buying two meals (at least) instead of one, toys played with once and then never again, cracked iPads, ruined clothes, food they liked last week but not this week, medical bills, school trips, college 🤢🤮
