One more thing...I really don't know what the circumstances are surrounding you supporting your parents...but IMO, that's ********. At 26 you should be starting your own life, not taking care of them. My income is meek, and I barely get by, but NO WAY would I ever ask either of my adult children to support me. Yea, the 26 yr. old pays a small amount of rent, just to cover things he wanted, like cable and internet...and he occasionally brings home groceries just because he wants to. It isn't his job to support me though.
