Sounds a lot like my parents.

Something along the lines of...
Me: Our interent doesn't work, need to get new internet.
Mom: No.
Me: I'll pay for all the extra costs.
Mom: No, the cost is irrelavant, it's because with better internet, you'll just spend more time on it, which is going to effect your studies.  The current internet is good enough for all your study purposes.  There's also a lot of bad people on the interent, I don't want you picking up bad influences...


Fucking retarded if you ask me.

Heh, their model of "dream son" in their minds is a guy who studies 12hrs a day, finds additional homework for entertainment, and gets scholarships to all the most prestegious unis out there.  Play games = waste of time, watch TV = waste of time, anything not study = waste of time.
