parenting tips

imapoptart asked:


I’m a junior in high school with a limited car budget.
My parents won’t just go out and buy me one because they want me to learn “the value of a dollar.” I have been saving for a while, but I only have a couple thousand. My parents have offered to double whatever I save, but that still doesn’t get me much. [example: $2,000=$4000 after their contribution.] I can’t get a job because of all my after school extracurriculars, but I need a vehicle to transport me to and from home. Any suggestions for a savvy car buyer? What models/makes/years do you suggest for a budget-concious girl that needs a ride?

any help would be appreciated!
