Question

Do I need to tithe the money I receive from my parents every month? Does it matter what the purpose of the money given by my parents is? What does it depend on? If I need to tithe, can my parents give me untithed money so that I can tithe it, thus avoiding double tithing? Thank you very much

Answer

Hello,

A. It depends. If the money is given to you for a specific purpose, you do not need to tithe. If it is given for free use, you need to tithe. 

B. Your parents' obligation is not related to your obligation. They are obligated on the money they earned, and you are obligated on what you earned.
