Today, my 24-year-old, unemployed brother stole all of my food money and went out with his friends. His punishment from our parents? He has to pay me back when he gets a job. My stomach has to wait. FML

"My all of my" Haha FML staff you might wanna fix that :)

Can't your parents help a little bit I mean you are their son...do they expect you to starve until he gets a job or have enough to maybe buy something to eat?

If you really wanna do something about it call the police and report him! I don't normally condone calling the authorities on family but thieves are assholes in general and anyone who steals from their own family is just a piece of shit! (no offence to you or your apparent piece of shit brother of course!)

Didn't just steal money.... stole GROCERY money, not spare cash. And didn't steal it to pay bills, buy food, etc. but to go out drinking... Yeah, I would see absolutely zero excuse for this. I'd give him or the parents a day to make good on it, then, yep. Police report. Time to recognize stupidity and who is at fault may be necessary...but...damn. That's the sort of guy who'd raid the wedding gifts cash box at your wedding to hit a girlie show with his buds afterwards.

Family or not, I don't care, you steal from me, your ass is getting a visit from the cops and I will press every possible charge that I can against you. Enjoyed getting ****** up the ass by the courts and jail system you thieving asshole.

Why do your parents have to punish him? I mean, he's a grown man, shouldn't you be able to find a solution to this without involving your parents?

You know...rereading this...I just had a thought. Take that same amount of money from your parents. It's not theft, right? They didn't worry when your brother did it to you, so why are they suddenly upset? Tell them that you'll pay them back when YOU get a job after you graduate. Point out that YOU are using it for groceries, not to run around with your friends. So what is the problem? Make them justify how it's just fine for him to take your needed money to go party, but not fine for you to take THEIR money for food. Fair is fair. If the only punishment for taking money is to eventually have to pay it back, take the money you need. If they bitch, tell them that next time you'll be sure to spend it on alcohol and parties so that it's okay. MAYBE the light will dawn on them then. And if they try and punish you? Hand them the cash, call the cops on the brother.

Take something of his. And maybe find a safe with a lock. And your brothers a dick. I would start filling out apps for him.

I fail to see how some people can think that you deserved this. :/
