My mother threatens me, what to do?

I have to write applications and my mother threatens to steal my cell phone and so on if I don't do that.

I've done so much homework over the weekend and I have to do it first plus study for final exams and I need a weekend too.

I'm 19 years old and am currently attending a vocational school and have final exams in May.

Especially my laptop is so junk and you have to wait almost an hour before you can do anything.

Doesn't anyone else in the house have a computer? Even if not, you can google on your mobile phone, listen to application coaches on YouTube, write texts and search for companies. That's enough for a start. You don't have to have everything perfectly ready right away, just start. Write out important things to yourself, you should definitely have time for this hour. If you wait until after the exams, it will take a long time to find a job.

I know how to take it away myself with my cell phone. That is really a shame. I always freak out too. I'm 16. But if I were you, I would first explain to her how many tasks you have and can't do everything. You can only apply later. Try to explain to them how you have no more free time and it is really stressful at the moment. And it would be very unnecessary to take the cell phone away as it doesn't make sense.

All the other computers are not exactly new either and sometimes crash

Taking the cell phone away is not age-appropriate if you are already 19 years old, despite everything you should try to find work or an apprenticeship position, if you only start after the final exam, it is probably a little late for this autumn!

As I said, a cell phone is sufficient for the beginning.

I have good news for you: You are of legal age and therefore have a right to property. So your mom Can't take your phone away from you (if it's yours).

As for the laptop: You are currently considering buying a new car (according to other questions), so a halfway working laptop should be financially possible.

So buy yourself decent "tools", then you save time and can do both - homework and applications. It's in YOUR interest, it's about your future (your mother is not entirely wrong here).

Otherwise, put your ears on draft.

My mother paid for the cell phone

Welcome to life. This is not a much-cited pony farm.

How do you imagine it: So now I have my exam, I would like to start working tomorrow?

That's not how it works.

Exaggerations (Pc) don't do well. It really is like that? Then go up in time.

By the way: there's still the pen…

Then I don't know how it is legally. If she gave it to you, it should actually be yours. Maybe other users are more informed and can help you.

Otherwise do it like with the laptop: buy yourself one day.
