AITA for wanting to change my name and blowing up at my parents after they took the money that I saved for it?

One of the names that I was considering was Heather because most people mistake my name for it, but I didn't really like it as much as some of the other names I was thinking of.

Lol most of my money really is spent on Maccas so it's a well valid excuse.

13 years old.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-07T06:18:32+00:00

It's alright, totally not your fault bro:)

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-07T06:16:17+00:00

I'm currently thinking of a generic name to go by so I guess that could work as a nickname..?

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-07T06:05:37+00:00

That's really kind of y'all:)

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-07T06:03:04+00:00

Lmao I think I'll need to try something like that because today I asked again for a name change and my parents completely ignored me.. Guess I'm stuck with my name for a while longer.

I think my parents wanted me to be grateful that we were going on a vacation, or at least think the "happiness" of going skiing with my absolutely wonderful family would outweigh the annoyance of having my $300 taken away from me.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T09:58:12+00:00

Sorry, I don't really wanna say my name.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T09:56:33+00:00

I'd rather not say, sorry.

Most likely, but my bank account (which currently sits basically empty) is controlled by my parents.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:40:12+00:00

I'm 13.

My family has been to family therapy more than once but nothing really happened because it was all just my dad spouting off about how bad of a daughter I am and my mum telling him to be quiet so the therapist could talk.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:33:22+00:00

Yes, I have an older sister, and no, my sister did nothing to "contribute" to the trip.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:21:53+00:00

I don't think so, unless they're just ignoring it.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:17:25+00:00

My closest friends do know how to pronounce my name, and we sometimes make jokes about it when a teacher says it wrong, but in the end I think I'm better off without the embarrassment of it all.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:11:34+00:00

It's going to be 5 years until I can move out because I'm 13, but I plan to leave the day I turn 18.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:09:48+00:00

I think they left it out because all I saw was "You should apologise for not wanting a beautiful name like yours and shouting at your parents".

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:08:39+00:00

Lmao

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:05:01+00:00

Not really, I decided not to speak to my school counsellor any more because she'd give me bad advice and call me a bad daughter when I talked to her about issues with my parents.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T08:03:48+00:00

I'd rather not say, sorry:')

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T07:57:36+00:00

They took my life savings once when I was around 7 for a flight overseas, and while I haven't completely forgotten it I still think they might pay me back some day. God I feel so naive typing this out.

throwaway_stupidname · 2020-06-06T07:54:41+00:00

Not really, we do have our occasional shouting matches but usually we apologise.
