Just set up a Paypal Acct. then you can snail mail things and not have to bug your parents. You will have to worry about USPS losing your money though.

Your parents probably want you to learn a lesson of being careful about what you spend your earned money on. They simply care about you and your future life.

I'm not saying your parents think that you are not responsible, they're simply reminding your developing brain that spending, even though you thought (I believe you are still a bit young, so your thought may sway from responsibility to desire, even though you may not mean too) it over, is not good.

What's the point in saving up YOUR money when someone else won't let you spend it? :|
