Right now I'm jobless, -$700 on credit card, and low amount of cash.
I'm trying to figure out how to best get loans, schalorships, etc. To go to the art institute in San Francisco. I am also wondering about housing and work around the area which is flexable to a college schedual.
Mainly I'm going after various graphics and animations work with some programming. So maybe work with the game graphics and programming courses there.Best way to plan getting out of parents house and into chosen college?
Start by filling out a FAFSA, and applying to the college you have chosen. They will help you with financial aid, and also they are likely to have a housing office that can help you find a place to live near their campus, and also roommates.Best way to plan getting out of parents house and into chosen college?
I can tell you right now that cost of living in the Bay Area is very expensive. You should at least get a part-time job to supplement your student loans.
Best advice: DO NOT PICKUP ANY UNNESSECARY DEBT! Cut up your credit card NOW and pay it off. Trust me, if you can't afford it, don't buy it. Lots of debt can completely derail your life. My younger brother racked up thousands of dollars in non-student loans and can't afford to do anything but work 50 hours a week and live in a crappy apartment for the next 3 years.

How do I deal with overly religious parents?
Ok, I do not live with my parents anymore thankfully but when I visit for two weeks or so during college breaks, I feel kinda suffocated by how religious my parents are. I do not mind if they choose to be religious but it is definitely painful when they force you to take part in their religious ceremonies. I have tried to tell them politely of how Im not interested but whenever I do, it leads to a huge fight or argument. What should I do to survive these breaks?How do I deal with overly religious parents?
i totally agree with Stormy S. your living with them for 2 weeks, it's their house and their 'rules'.
go with the flow. if you want to avoid the argument just go with the flow. if you really don't to, then just pretend to do whatever it is they want you to do. How do I deal with overly religious parents?
If you are going to stay under your parent's roof for two weeks then you need to tolerate having to live under their rules as well. This is THEIR home not your's any longer and they have the right to expect anyone staying there to follow their rules. If you don't like it I suggest when you go ';home'; to visit that you stay in a motel/hotel or with someone else. They don't have to change their lifestyle in their home just because YOU visit. Grow up and get over yourself.
umm well afterall its only a couple weeks but i can relate i liv with my parents and i have to go to church everysun and wed nights and stuff but ya ur parents do sound over religious but anyways (i feel your pain) lol haha good luck in life!!!!!!!!! = P
pretend to have an excorcism during one of the ceromonys :D
have a talk with them

Can someone please help me with information on retaining Power of Attorney for a terminally parent?
My mom is terminally ill. Unfortunately, she hasn't made any preparations for either healthcare or what to do after she's passed away. And there are 6 surviving children and unfortunately, only 2 of us are really responsible and don't want the burden of unexpected expenses to sneak up on us. We'd really like to try and get things in order as much as possible. My youngest brother and I will most likely be the ones financially responsible for any extra costs. Because of this, we'd really like to have say in her healthcare, as well as funeral arrangements.Can someone please help me with information on retaining Power of Attorney for a terminally parent?
Many physicians offices, hospitals, and nursing homes have the forms for the advance healthcare directive (living will). If you can't find one, you can download one from the Pennsylvania Medical Society website. http://www.pamedsoc.org/Template.cfm?Sec鈥?/a>
As regards to financial matters, I would suggest that Mom's attorney prepare a General Power of Attorney naming one of the responsible children to make financial decisions, sell real estate, authorize medical and surgical procedures, deal with stocks and bonds and United States Savings Bonds, etc. Other responders have said ';Just get a form from a stationery store and have her sign it.'; I disagree. An attorney should determine if Mom is competent to sign a General Power of Attorney. And remember, the attorney who prepares this document is working for Mom, and not for you. The power of attorney should be witnessed and acknowledged. Make several originals because ofteh some financial organizations insist on an original. The acknowledgment in the presence of a Notary Public is important because it makes the document recordable in the event it is necessary to sell real estate and use the POA as authorization to sign a deed. Most lawyers I know now include HIPAA authorization to enable the agent to speak with then physician on behalf of the principal to make medical decisions.
If Mom is not competent to sign a General Power of Attorney, as a last resort, it may be necessary to have her adjudicated an ';incapacitated person.';
If there is a possibility that Mom may go into a nursing home and quickly exhaust her assets, it would be advisable to ';pre-pay'; her funeral expenses. This is permitted under Medicaid regulations.Can someone please help me with information on retaining Power of Attorney for a terminally parent?
you can hire an attorney or do it yourself.go to office depot and get a power of attorney form. fill it out for finance and health list the power of attorneys names have your mon sign it giving power of attorney to you. have it notorized and filed with the clerk of court. give a copy to her bank you should be able to handle her financial affairs. check with the state in which you live for further info not all states are standard
You can get the software and print it up off your computer and I also believe that most office supply stores carry the forms.
Most of her assets should have been or need to be put into a Trust, so it doesn't have to be probated after she is gone. In the meantime, if you are looking for a POA, have your attorney draw one up (make it specific, not a general one) and have your mom sign it! Sorry about your mom!
You need to go talk to an attorney, is your mom alert and thinking clearly? If so you can get forms for a living will on line and help her complete it. Also, talk to her about an advance directive you can get the forms from her doctor, this will let the family know how she wants her end of life to go and the doctor will keep one for his record. An advance directive will discuss life support. As far as expenses you will need an attorney to probate the estate once she passes, and usually once someone dies the creditors don't usually pursue collection from the estate unless the estate has a lot of assets. House payments and such that are large will have to be paid That is why you will need an attorney to help you through the process.

In the US, it's actually 17. Once you are 17, your parents cannot report you as a runaway and have no control over you. As for Canada, I have no idea.
If you're still living under their roof, you must obey their rules!

How do I make money from my parents?
I am going shopping soon, and my parents said I need to pay (for most of it) and they won't let me take money out of my bank account. How do I make money from my parents (without getting an actual job) that will be easy?How do I make money from my parents?
ONLY your parents can tell you what, if anything, THEY will pay you for. You CAN'T charge more than your customer, whoever that is is willing to pay. Thy asking your neighbors if there is anything they will pay you to do.How do I make money from my parents?
I think your best bet is to ask them. Your parents aren't going to pay you for doing your normal chores. Maybe you could see if your neighbors have any odd jobs you can do. I think they are trying to teach you that you must work hard if you want things, and so I think you should try to show them you are willing to do that, not look for an easy way out.
Ask for an allowance. Agree to do certain chores for a weekly fee.
Otherwise, you'll just have to earn it (babysitting, doing chores for neighbors, etc). Don't expect to get something (money) for nothing (no work) - no child should be that spoiled and entitled.
I was EXPECTED to do chores and never got paid for doing them. But when it came to for money to go do things, I was given some.
Ask what are some extra things you could do around the house to earn money for this shopping trip. Paint a room, do some yard work, clean garage, etc. Maybe they will pay you a wage for doing that.
Did it occur to you that you parents intend to have you work for it? A job, wow, what an idea.
As far as getting it from your parents, why not steal it from them?
Go above and beyond what you normally do around the house. Do something huge that will impress them. Cook a fancy dinner one night and do all the cleanup too.
Also, if you are a great kid already (good grades, do well at school, stay out of trouble), they might give you the money without making you work for it.
get a fricken allowance
i get 20 a week
sweeet

How do i tell and convince my parents to be home/online schooled?
I do have an stress induced illness which makes school hard.I am not worried about socialness i am already very shy and unsocial.How do i tell and convince my parents to be home/online schooled?
Do your research.
1. Find out what the law says you have to learn.
2. Find out what style you want to follow. Here's a link to help: http://homeschooling.gomilpitas.com/meth鈥?/a>
3. Do more research about that style, or styles.
4. Figure out what subjects you want to study each year, or think you should study. Then pick a curriculum. You can use different ones from different suppliers if you want to. Most people pick resources from here and there. This will help: http://homeschoolreviews.com/
5. Draw it up in a table format, it helps you see the big picture.
6. Show your parents and see if they are ok with your plans.
Basically, if you want to convince them, you have to do the research.How do i tell and convince my parents to be home/online schooled?
Well first you have to be self motivated to get the work done. I am doing on-line school. The university i go to allows me to do my work %26amp; turn it in when i want. I have 2 years to complete it all.
Explain your insecurities about your illness to your parents. Make them understand that you will be able to concentrate and learn better in your own environment, a course it will be less stressful.
Dont forget going to school can teach you how to be socialable don't mess out. Get a friend to try out a sport, hobby, or club at school with you so you arent so shy.
GOOD LUCK
When you show them you've done the research, maybe that will impress and convince them. Here's a link, hopefully your state is included:
