I'm almost 17 and I WANT A CAR SOO BAD. All of my friends have cars and it makes me so jealous. My mom bought my brother a car when he was 16. She told me that I have a "smart mouth" and that she wasn't going to buy me a car. She told me she wasn't born with a silver spoon and niether was I. I asked her what will I do when I need a car for college( I'm going to college out of state and will need a way to get around and back home etc). Then she told me to FIGURE IT OUT ON MY OWN! like wtf. I just started crying. I don't think it's right she bought my brother a car but not me.(my brothers car was cheap around 2,000 and it ended up breaking down). WHAT DO I DO. my mom is a single parent but she has a good job and she promised last year I would get a car for graduation but I guess now that's changed:( I can't find a job btw:( i need help
 
Obviously your mom doesn't feel like you show her respect. Why should she buy you a car, when your "smart mouthing" off to her? You can't find a job? does that mean your mommy will have to support you for the rest of your life? NO. You do what all the other adults do, you are almost an adult, keep looking for work until you find a job, and buy your own stuff.
 
Ok "smart mouth" this probably means she doesn't feel like you show her respect, so why should she help you out? Its called get a job and pay for it yourself. Maybe if you need a little help ask her, but start being respectful first.
 
Here is the answer for you. Get a dang job, and you can not find one what ever. Look harder there are jobs out there. Just because she bought a car for your brother what makes you think that she has to buy one for you. Do things for your self and stop being a smart mouth.

It sounds like she may be trying to teach you some responsibility. Get yourself a part-time job and start saving your money. Then maybe she will help you pay for a good car. Even if she doesn't you're going to need to do that anyway.
 
Well we can determine two possible scenarios from this. One, your mom is a sexist or two, your brother is obviously her favorite child. Maybe if you acted more like your amazing brother who isn't a smart mouth then she would buy you a car. If all your friends jumped off a bridge would you too? No I didn't think so.
 
Get a job and pay for it yourself. This will show her that when you want something you will find a way. This will also show her that you are being responsible. Another good reason for this, is she can't say "I bought you that car and I can take it away" or "I did buy you that car, so let your brother use it.". I have a friend whose mom bought her a car and every time her sister or brother needed it, she would say that she bought that car, so my friend was without her car a lot, because she had to let her siblings use it.
