tell them you applied for the cards by yourself.
you dont have to pay the cc companies anything b/c you are not old enough to be in a contract (aka cc) so that is a good thing.
Using that as an excuse to abuse the credit system is pretty weak IMO.
I would tell my parents that they have two options
1. pay the charges that were for items they bought and you take care of your charges, get the account up to date and the cards will be destroyed at that point.
2. You go to the credit companies and inform them of the fraud that has been done with your parents knowledge, consent, and urging...then charges will be brought against them for such an action under the fraud act and they stand the high probabilityof facing not only the full cost of the bill but court costs and the potential of destroying their credit for life as well as fines etc. not to mention the fact that you will have to testify against them in this matter because you were coerced into such an act.
I am sure they will be resonable and just pay the bill and allow you to either destroy the cards or not ever ask to use them again
