<prompt> Human: So this this is one of my first times posting on Reddit so forgive me if there are any formatting issues. Anyway I have a bit of a dilemma on my hands. This past summer I thought it would be a great idea to get a credit card, and needless to say things did not turn out the way I planned them too. I work two jobs throughout the summer so I technically have a dual income of about 250 Job A per week and 450 Job B every two weeks. The thing is that the money from Job A is stored away and I do not have access to it for my parents take it so that I can start saving up. Now here is the situation. I am going back to college soon and that flow of income will cease to exist. I am 1600 in credit card debt with no money in my checking account and have a check on the way Next Friday that will get me 450. So Id be down to 1150 ideally, if I do not spend anymore money. While in college I will also receive 90 per week. My question is should I struggle through this and do the best that I can or should I ask my parents for my money from Job A I have a little over 2000 saved up. They will be furious if I tell them I had spent all my money from Job B, but I am in and out of the house, I work 2 jobs Monday through Friday and I even work full day weekends at Job B. Between gas, food I almost never eat at home, and other expenses it was hard to basically provide for myself with only one source of income. What should I do?Edit: The Credit Card that I currently do have does not have any additional interest. Since it was my first one, I choose a credit card option where I do not have to pay interest for the first 18 months. Again thank you for all the advice  <response>: Its not the credit cards fault that you bought things you could not afford. Now you have to pay the price you agreed to pay if you carried a balance on it.I would ask your parents for the money from job A. If youre going to college you should start managing your own money.
