Am I wrong to inform my parents about their bad financial decisions???

My parents always make bad financial decisions. My mom constantly complains about money but never does anything about it. She's all talk, no action. She complains about her job and that she doesn't like it yet doesn't even try to find another job, saying she "will not" be able to get another one. Next, she buys expensive shoes and doesn't even wear them. SHE JUST WASTES MONEY! I really feel like i'm going freaking crazy because of her.....I have to constantly suffer because of her and my parents selfishness....My mom is always in denial.

Well, I informed her about her decisions and that they are bad and i told her some smarter ways to improve the financial situation...like don't spend money on useless stuff, find another job, etc.

She then yells at me saying that i should "mind my own business". I MEAN HELLO, I LIVE UNDER THE SAME ROOF. My dad won't even let me live on my own....they keep me under the roof...they are very "protective" of me even though they never really do anything to make my life more comfortable.


I get really really really depressed because of her because apparently she thinks i'm always wrong and that i shouldn't "speak up" about the financial situation.


They won't let me move out....i cannot freely do whatever i want...I want to go study abroad myself but my dad won't let me do it. i'm 21 years old. They are protective of me but have never really done anything for me. They have never really gone out of their way to make a comfortable living for myself and the family.


I really don't want to live like this my whole life. I want my mom to stop being in denial and stop blaming me for informing her about the "reality" of life. I don't wanna live always financially instable.....i wanna live comfortably!!!!!!!!


Well, I want to know whether I'm wrong to inform my mom about her bad decisions that she makes and how it affects me. She wants me to mind my own business but how can I???? I cannot even live a comfortable life because of them....i just feel like my parents are really really selfish and immature....i don't know why i'm "always" wrong....i've always made good decisions, i do well in school and am financially smart. I save up money in my bank account and spend very little money.


I'm really depressed because of my parents. If they "really" cared about me they would stop being a sad sack and people in denial and take some "real" and "positive" action.....

My whole life i suffer because of them....
I do very well on my part...i am very responsible....i do have money saved up from working jobs....but because of the economy i "cannot" move out....they won't let me move out either...
