My 23 year old sister has been forcing my parents to give her montly expenses. My parents are ready to give it but the problem is she doesnt even inform them what is she going to do with the money or the reason why she needs money. As a parent they have the right to know where their hard earned money is being spent by their daughter. She wont even listen to my parents about anything.
