Today, I found the birthday card my grandma had mailed. Apparently, it contained a gift of $100. Too bad it was in my mom's trash can, opened, with no money. She told my grandma it must have gotten lost in the mail. FML

Today, my mom had a baby shower. When it was over, I walked around cleaning up the trash. I saw a card sitting on the table, along with a note to my mom saying, "Better luck with this one." At the moment I'm an only child, and the card was from my grandmother. FML

File a police report!!!! Parents only do these kind of things to thier children because they think tbey can. It is a federal crime to tamper with the mail... Might wanna ask mom how prison sounds!!!!!!

Your mom is a crack head. I'm sure. She just needed a new crack pipe. It's really your fault anyway. You should have got her one for Christmas, then she wouldn't of had to steal your money.

Tell Granny everything. Never send cash by mail. The ONLY good reason for a Mom to take a kids money is if the kid has or has had a serious drug problem, then Mom should hold it not spend it. Your Mom has broken the law
