I accdently used my parents credit card to buy something off of ebay my mistake. So this is what happen I had 18 dollars in my Paypal account and I wanted to buy this 6 dollar item and Paypal asked me to register a credit card So I used my parents chase freedom card and it worked and everything. Then I Thought if i would buy it the money would be subtracted from Paypal account but instead Paypal used my parents credit card instead of the money I had in my Paypal account? What can do I now? I already cancled my parents credit card from Paypal.
Update:
I mean I only bought something for 6 dollars without there consent. Please read the whole post. Thank you

Tell your parents immediately what has happened. Better that they know what you have done so they don’t deny the charge. If you try to avoid this it will make you look dishonest. Everyone makes mistakes. It is better if you own up quickly.
If you actually took the time to take a credit card out of your mothers purse, dads wallet or their dresser drawer, and added it to PayPal, that was NOT a mistake. That was stealing and now you will be busted.
Nice job.
Better fess up so they don’t get a surprise when they read their bill.
And, close your PayPal account while you are at it, because as you already know since lying seems to be your forte that you lied about your birth year to open the account.
What exactly was your question anyways? How to hide it from your parents? hmmmm, that cat is out of the bag. You cannot.
Keep your hands off your parents cash, credit/debit cards and checkbooks.
Just be honest with your parents it’s best if they know any activity that has gone on with their card. And pay them 6 dollars in cash. I doubt they would be to mad if you were honest and especially gave them the 6 dollars in cash on spot.
You need to change the preferences in your paypal account to use money from your paypal account first.
Tell your parents about the cc, I’m sure they’ll be pissed off.
open a bank account in your name and change the cc info you canceled in the paypal acct to YOUR bank CC/ debt card.
Obviously better to tell your parents yourself but it is odd cash in your paypal should have gone first that has always been paypals rules
As you seem so prone to “mistakes” perhaps you should forget about buying anything online. Your parents could legitimately have you arrested for theft/fraud.
Seems like your in a sticky situation..
