Angry and hurt, the teen lashed out at his parents, causing a heated argument. While some may sympathize with the parents wanting to make their child happy, others may understand the teen’s frustration at having his hard-earned money taken without his consent. Read on to find out if you think the teen is the a**hole in this situation.

Teen saves up for university, parents spend on brother’s PC
Saving up for university can be a daunting task, especially when coming from a family that isn’t financially secure. This was the case for a 15-year-old teenager who had a plan to save up for their university fees. The teenager worked part-time for a year and a half and managed to save up around £3000 without spending a single penny. However, their hard-earned savings were spent by their parents on buying their younger brother a gaming PC set. The teenager was understandably upset and demanded to know why their parents spent the money without asking. After a heated argument, the teenager left in anger but later regretted some of the things they said. While the parents may have had good intentions of making their younger child happy, they should have communicated with their elder child before making such a drastic decision. This begs the question – was the teenager in the wrong for being angry or were the parents in the wrong for spending the money without permission? Read on for the comments and reactions to this family feud.
