I am sorry for you. I come from similar background. Except I am not from the west. I come from a developing country. My father has a hefty paycheck (I don't want to be identified so I'll not give the exact amount) yet always yells at me for bills and even thinks everything is money. I ask for a motorbike, "we don't have money for that." I ask for a new computer, "we don't have money for that." I ask him to buy Amazon prime for me (so I can watch my favorite TV series)
Even better, he tells me I am too incompetent "to be the breadwinner of our family" and that I will end up begging. That doesn't end there, he tells me he doesn't have the money to pay my medical bills.
I know how it's like, I really do. The feeling is making me to take my life away.
