So let's say you're struggling to find that perfect side hustle and you're left wondering - how is everyone else affording their lifestyles? Maybe their parents are bankrolling them? And if so, does that mean you should be expecting the same from your parents?


We can't answer that question for you, though we would suggest having open and honest conversations with your parents (if possible) about money if you're struggling to make ends meet.


But! Back to the question at hand - is it ok to ask your parents for money? Here's what Frichies say to that: 31% think it's ok to ask if your parents can afford to help out; 15% think it's ok only if you're struggling to find a job; 46% think it's ok only for emergencies; and only 8% think it's not ok to ask your parents for money at all.


We know this can be a tough conversation to navigate depending on your family situation but you got this!❤️
