under 18, living at home and are unable to fund the entire holiday cost yourself.

This attitude of entitlement really concerns me, I wouldn't have dreamt of asking my parents if I could go on an overseas holiday to mark the end of my school years. I didn't even bother asking if I could go to Rottnest as I knew what the answer would be!

I travelled overseas to the UK & Europe when I was just 19 years old and I look back & understand why my Mum didn't want me to go. She didn't have a choice because I was an "adult" & worked full-time for 3 years to pay for my trip.
