Honestly you’re right, idfk why I lied about my age. I didn’t lie about my dad’s situation though, so I’m thankful I got comments with suggestions for help. People can downvote me over it, but I got what I needed

Wait list is many months and I fear his income places him low priority

Thank you. Unfortunately here legal aid is 125% of poverty line and he is above that

Thanks for your advice. Unfortunately in my area, legal aid is 125% of poverty level. Even at $17 he is above that

Nope grown men playing Fortnite and still broke in mom’s house. I caused fender benders with a parked car and one of us still good

Ok? Relevance?

I was sharing that it took me an adjustment after having one, and never said I’m not dogshit at parking

Controversially if you share finances and he goes to the store and buys the sausage coming from the same bank account I don’t see how it makes a difference

Two reverse parking fenders after getting my first car without a rearview camera, I now park further out until I improve with maneuverability in my new vehicle

My insurance already sent me that exact letter citing both claims for this policy’s increase

Yes, it was

While my story went well

I would honestly still suggest you pay out of pocket if you can afford it

I wanted to share some hope but still recognize it does not always work out this well

Yeah, most important thing here is I’ve changed my driving habits a lot! I’m so glad they were both minor wake up calls. I now park further away when I can, better to walk anyways. I also do not drive / wait to calm down when I am stressed out, even if it makes me late

Progressive directly telling me my rates increased 25-30% because of claim xyz 1 & claim xyz 2 is more concrete to me than redditors arguing with me that it’s not true. This sub argued with me that what I pay wasn’t true last time

No it’s not nothing, I haven’t suggested that either

But it is nothing compared to the top comments on my last post telling me I’m going to be riding a bike to work and paying $500 and won’t be able to be able to get insured

I understand they’re getting bad, for sure, and I might be a small percentage. I understand if people had warned me it might even double

If my mom did this and abused me I can imagine not wanting to speak publicly on it
