Asking your Dad for money in person isn’t always the easiest thing to do. And in this day and age of technology, you may want to try asking him over text. Here are 11 text samples that you can use to ask your Dad for money.

What to know before asking Dad for money

Rest assured that the majority of dads want to help their kids out no matter what age they are. And even though it can feel intimidating or scary to ask your dad for money, deep down he truly wants to help you out.

The key thing to remember is that you have to be polite when you ask. When you ask your dad for money, it cannot come across as demanding or rude. Be as polite as possible and always remember your basic manners. Like your “please’s” and “thank you’s”. 

This may sound very juvenile but it works. When my daughter asks me for money, she knows how to ask and she is very polite. It also helps to have done something for your dad without him asking. Offering him help and support is a great way to tug on his heartstrings.

On the flip side, if he asked you to do something and you haven’t done it, like a chore or task, this will decrease your chances of getting money from your dad. Ensure that you do what he asks in advance of asking him for money.
