Today, my mom took away my car, phone, dog, laptop and college fund because I told her she lets me down sometimes. I'm moving to Arizona for college in two weeks. FML

Today, my parents took away my laptop, TV, Xbox, and car all because I broke up with my girlfriend. They said when I patch things up with her, I can have my stuff back. FML

Today, my mom yelled at me for taking too long at a job interview, and that it was a waste of her time to drive me to it. I just quit my job, moved away from my boyfriend and the coast to help take care of her in Idaho. FML

Get out

Today, my mother kicked me out of the house because her new boyfriend needs my room. Evidently he also needs my credit card, passport, and wallet too, because she kept all three, while tossing everything else out on the lawn. FML

Today, I discovered that I don't have a college fund. My mother stole the money when she divorced my dad and he never bothered to tell me. Now he's offered to pay my tuition if I go to a military academy. If I don't take the offer, he wants me to move out by next Friday. FML

Remember the promise you made

Today, my mom decided to go against every promise she's made to everyone once again and left us in financial ruin. How? She took advantage of my kindness, and didn't pay any of the money she owes me for driving my car, and for so much more. I'm more than $2,000 in debt now. FML

Today, after being accepted into the college of my dreams, I found out that my mom has spent all my college savings on alcohol over the years, and she says that it's my fault for not "helping her get help." FML

Today, my insane mother refused to pick me up from school. Her reason was my “little brother” didn’t feel like going in the car. I got upset and snapped that her dog is not my brother when she tried to ground me. She won’t cook, clean, or take care of her family, all for that damn dog. I can’t wait to move. FML

Today, after being kicked out of my racist family, my boyfriend and I moved across the country to rent an apartment with my sister. My mother hates us so much she offered to buy my sister a new car to not take us in. FML

I'm sure that you will get everything back before you go, if not that's pretty messed up, especially taking your dog.

To the people that are saying that OPs mom took that stuff because they bought it all, that's not always the case. My moms taken my things as punishment and broken a couple (long story, not important now) despite the fact that I worked for the money and bought it myself

How old are you? If you're 18, isn't that technically theft?

She took away your dog? That's cruel for your pet, who will feel neglected after not seeing its owner after too long. Your mom needs help.

If you pay for your car and phone, and you paid for your dog and laptop, then she has no right to take those, and taking away a kid's college fund two weeks before they leave for college is just outright crazy

I'm sorry but I find it hard to believe a college starts school midway through a summer semester.

I moved up to where I live for college about three weeks early to get settled and find a job before classes so I had less stress when they started. OP's mom sounds like way too much to deal with, like mine is. Sometimes you just gotta get out of the house asap and cut off as much contact as possible, don't be condescending about the dates. It's rude, and you don't know the whole story.
