Default how to handle

i am now earning money for myself, it's not that much but i'm happy that i have my own money.

i want to buy an external hdd and ipod touch for myself using the money that i have earned so far. but my parents would tell me not to use the money and just save it even when they won't buy me these things. i told them that i'm going to use my money and even after i buy those things, i'm still going to save money. it seems like they didn't know that i know how to save. also, i would also share what i have earned to them so i could help with the household expenses. i know i won't be able to give a big amount but i will still try and help.

is it right for my parents to keep on stopping me from buying the external hdd and ipod touch?
how can i make them see that i will not spend every single cent and that i will save part of what i earn?

thank you
