Quote:It isn't nice to lie to your parents,
True, Adrian. But in this case I suspect they would prefer the lie to the reality.
I agree with Adrian. While you are living with them you are more or less stuck. Yes, you will feel like a whore but this is one of life's biggest lessons. 'Honesty is the best policy' only applies if you are independently wealthy. Sometimes you have to act in ways that you find morally abhorrent in order to not make things worse. This will not be the only time in your life when you face such a problem, son. Wait until you get into the work environment. Bosses can be bigger shits than parents.
