Mynxie I'm going to disagree here on which one of you is the idiot. It's obvious that mom is terrible for stealing the college fund. However, the main problem in this FML is that the dad opted to just not mention that fact, waited until their child had no chance of being able to save it ahead of time themselves, and then offered them an ultimatum regarding their future. The immediate issue is the choice of Military academy or being made homeless by the dad who was already aware the OP was going to have problems going to college. Mom's a thief and scum in her own right but Dad literally and knowingly set his child up to get screwed into failure.

4 years don't cover 100% it covers a part of it only I served 9 years and after a minimum of 6 do they cover 100% been out since 2012

There are US Military Academies, which are free, but are not so easy to get into. And there are private military academies which are relatively easy to get into and are expensive. Personally, I assumed the Dad was referring to a private or state version because it’s really not that easy to get into a US Military academy - There is serious competition for a limited number of slots.

I did 3 years active duty service and got out 2013. That was enough to qualify me for 100% of my GI Bill. A reserve or national guard soldier will not qualify for more than 30% of their GI bill until they meet certain duty criteria.

All your 3 comments are bashing women in general. Nobody is praising the mother for doing what she did and we don't know the circumstances of why she took the money. You're one of those guys that talk bad about women, but still have the courage to leave their mother until age 40. Goodbye.

Someone is upset r/incest was banned, and doesn't have an outlet for his misogyny.

Live with*. Wow, numerous complaints and the editing button still don't work. That's fine, we see what happened with the internet today, so FML will be the last thing I pay for.

*incels on my end. I swear it was correct when I posted it. Are mods intentionally changing things to look like autocorrect mistakes? He'll, my phone tries to autocorrect insoles' to uncles if anything, not incest.

Ok, there's something within the page that changes words when they're posted, because I double checked for autocorrect errors in my last post. There were none when I typed it, but two appeared after. I'm pretty much expecting an "autocorrect" error in this, even though I've proofread it.

1. Actually, both parents are to blame. 2. No one asks to be born. So the least the parents could do is actually help pay for an education, we need to get ahead in life. 3. Financial Aid is your friend. 4. You can get loans, just know what that entails for the long run after you finish school. 5. Good luck with whatever you solution you figure out.
