Have your parents use the worksheet at <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="
https://apps.irs.gov/app/vita/content/globalmedia/teacher/worksheet_for_determining_support_4012.pdf...> to help determine the support issue. Its' designed to be completed from the parent's perspective. Due to the fact your parent's gave you money each month, that money gets counted for the support test, and it's not "your" money either, since you did not go out and earn it.
