Do parents have the right to take things away from their children, even if that child had a job and worked for it?
Your Mom/Dad threatens to take something. That something is something you bought with your own money and did not receive it from them. Is it right for the parents to take it?

Only if it is in the parents' home and they don't want it there. They should return it if the child wants to keep it somewhere else, however.

It depends. What things are you referring to? Drugs? Cigarettes? P0rn? Explicit music? Or are you asking if parents have the right to take away certain things like a phone or electronics, due to the child's behavior? What behavior of the child caused the parent to threaten to do so? Does the child pay rent and other bills? How old is the child?
Certainly, loving parents have the right to set boundaries and control a child's behavior by limiting privileges - even if that means taking items the child bought themselves.Like (1)

Parents are responsible for the child until the child is on its own. Therefore if the child needs to be put in diapers at 16 then do so. So no just because u work a little and bought something doesn't make it yours till you have your own separate address. Ain't prelaw fun. They own you till you move out!

No. They wouldn't like it if their child did the same to them, matter of fact theyd call it stealing.

Not if you're over 18.If that's what your parents are like when you're fully grown then they need to get penned in for a visit from **** Cheney.

This issue arises, especially, in instances of child celebrities. One obvious example is children who starred in movies like Harry Potter.
