Do we owe our parents anything?

Literally nothing if they hadn't treated or raised you right. If they did tho, i would say they deserve some basic respect but otherwise not much unless you are wanting them to get something for you that isn't needed and you already comfortable with life.

no, I despise my family, they are human scum

You are their obligation. It's more that they owe you than you owe them. They owe you a safe childhood and a great mentoring in life for selfishly having brought you into the world. However I agree with @Namelesa, if your parents treated you right and respects you then you should treat your parents right and respect them as well.

Thanks for your thoughts and replies. I personally dont feel like I owe them anything. They brought me into this life for their own entertainment, happiness or purpose so as far as I'm concerned they need to do their best to accommodate my needs and help me out whenever I need it, regardless of my age etc.

No, but if they were at least decent and tried to raise you right, even though they might have made mistakes and didn't know better, try to be respectful to them until you CTB out of this dump.
