I firstly need to apologize for not knowing a whole bunch about my parents finances because they don't like to discuss them with their kids. I come from a family of 6 kids, my step-dad works(biological father not in life), my mother does not. They must make a decent amount of money because they are able to support us for the most part. They are swimming in credit card debt and receive food stamps as well as multiple other government aids. Last year I got a job where I make less than $2000 a year(it's a catering place so I work based on events). Even making only that much my parents threw a big fuss for a little bit about how I am going to have to help them out with bills and such. My paychecks are usually $45-100, so I couldn't really provide any sort of reasonable help. Luckily I don't make enough so they still have federal aid.

I am going into my senior year of high school and really need to start saving for a car and then start saving/investing money. Is there any way I am able to work a more realistic job without my families financial aid being taken away?

EDIT: If I had to ballpark their salary, I would say it's $65K-$75K. I'm have no idea about credit card debt, also two or three years ago we bought a house for $80K(30 year mortgage).
