It's pretty clear from your other threads about your domestic troubles that parental help is unlikely to happen any time soon, if ever, so it would be more productive to work on improvements yourself.
In another thread you were talking about something that happened at work - so does this mean you now stand a chance of taking on that flat?

It must surely be clear to you by now that doing whatever it takes to gain independence has to become your priority.

How can anyone here possibly answer that?
The fact is, they're not helping in the way you'd like so I'm afraid you're going to have to try and learn how to help yourself.
There is no other solution.

Would you agree that my parents are being unfair by not helping me more?

What if we do agree - what's going to change?
Or what if we don't agree - any difference?
You're hoping we'll 'send da boys round' and force them to help you? :lol:

The point is, they're not helping you and nothing we can say will change that.
You have to find a way of helping yourself.

It is this kind of thing that shows your immaturity. Life is not fair, and you have to help yourself.

If they can tell, it is by your choice of words, how you express yourself and the topics you start or choose to respond to.

Your age or any other outward fact will only be a premature assumption.

In this post, the one you made here, I assume you're childish and immature - to some extent, anyway - because you say so yourself.
You don't write: "Why do they 'think' I'm childish and immature", but: "How can they tell...", and telling is finding out, noticing, i.e...

I don't think it means they don't like you, though. :)
