Hey everyone, OP here. Thank you everyone for your birthday wishes. I called my friends and got it rescheduled for Saturday luckily, although one or two might not be able to. As for my mom, she had a joint account with me due to when I was 17, and I just haven't gotten to it to change it to just me when I turned 18 last year, because she usually never does this. My mom does seem to like my brother more than me which is a little messed up but she usually respects me and treats me very well. She's a nice person and decent parent, but a little weird sometimes. She didn't have any money to spend on his birthday due to just paying rent for the month with her paycheck. She did however have no right to use my money or cancel my plans. That was uncalled for and definitely not right. As for the gun itself as a present to my brother, he's turning 23 and just got back from a year deployment to Germany. She wanted to do something special for him and he really wanted a mosin nagant rifle for a couple years now. I would have bought it for him honestly if. she asked because I get paid tomorrow. I hope that answers all your questions!

As a mother I cannot imagine doing something so awful and jusy plain mean to my own child. Especially to try to steal your money for your brother, talk about adding insult to injury.

Is she on drugs or something OMG! Talk about bad mom
I'm with a lot of the other people here. I'd say message them back, inform them that the party was never cancelled. If this embarrasses her, then she should not have done something like this without consulting you first. I'm guessing from your username (mckenna9797) that you were probably born in 1997, making you older than 18 any way you look at it. This means that your mother has no legal say in how you spend your money. This was completely out of line, and definitely not appropriate in any way, shape, or form. If she wants to purchase a gun for your older brother, then she should be deciding that without cancelling your own plans and spending your own money.
That's crazy! She should be taking you to dinner, and buying you a gift, not taking your dinner away and buying your brother a gift.
Guns are bad
How very insightful.
Sounds like most posts on here say to re-invite everybody but your mom to your birthday dinner. I agree... You deserve better
That's just so wrong!!
Message everyone that you didn't cancel your bday dinner and that it was your mother who did so then proceed to go to dinner with all of them exluding your mother whom you left a note telling her to buy the gun (she so badly wants for your brother) with her own money and that you're celebrating YOUR birthday with YOUR money and with people that care about you. Don't forget the xoxo at the end.
Time to reschedule the dinner without her this time.
I hope, it is just a stupid excuse for canceling your birthday dinner, and she planned a surprise party for you.

Excuse me but WHAT? That is insane and hide your money. Some mothers are just crazy and very bad at that parenting thing.
Do what you want with your own money. Even though your mom cancelled your big dinner, you can still reschedule. And as for her, tell her she can buy the gun with her own money!
