Today, I found out my mom has notebooks with lists of everything she has bought for me ever since I was born. Apparently she is going to make me pay her back for all the money she spent on me once I'm an adult. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I told my mom I wasn't doing very good mentally and I was looking for some support. She decided to remind me of all of the things I still haven't paid her back for. I'm now an unpaid loan, not her daughter. FML
Today, my mom cleaned out my bank account, saying my "no-good dad" owes her child support and that she'll get it one way or another. FML
Today, my mother found out I published a book. She demanded that I pay her all my royalties as repayment for her raising me. FML
Today, it's been months that my mom has owed me $174, and every time I ask she tells me she's too poor to pay me back. Girly bought an entire 180k dollar farm with my grandparents the day after I asked (also the money was used for gas, and she guilt tripped me into giving it to her). FML
Today, I found out that my grandma has been sending me birthday money every year. My mom just steals it before I ever see it. FML
Today, I discovered my mom has been using my credit card to buy everyone's Christmas presents. FML
Today, I discovered my own mother has been stealing money from me for months when I opened my savings box to find it empty. FML
Today, my mom yelled at me because I refused to lend her money. The reason I won't lend her money? The last time I did, she and my dad went out and bought a Macbook and a new car instead of paying bills. Apparently, I'm being 'selfish' by keeping my own money and putting it towards university. FML
Today, I found out my mom took around $2,500 from my savings account to pay off my sister's college tuition. She recently flunked out of her studies and won't be returning to college anyway. FML
Today, I found out my mom paid my best friend $20 to be my friend when we were 10. FML

Thats messed up. Lol. I would not pay her back. She's your mom. Aren't parents suppose to buy you things you need when your a baby/child? Seems like she doesn't really care.

Hmmm, are you Chuck Norris? lol jk. FYL OP, I'm taking a course in law, and you have no legal obligation to pay for her. Report her.

Well, if truly is intending to see it through that you pay her back, get someone else involved in the situation. Seriously. For one, babies alone can add up to over 50 grand a year or something like that, probably more. Not to mention, years of toys/clothes/etc. Having kids isn't cheap. Not to mention, your parents are legally financially responsible for you until you turn 18. Whatever she bought you that wasn't a necessity for life, she chose to buy that, and she can't expect you to pay her for toys you got when you were 6. If she hadn't bought food and clothing and provided you with some means of shelter, she would be removed from the household because of neglect and possible abuse as well. She didn't have to buy you other things besides that, but it's not unreasonable to expect parents to buy their children things every once in awhile. I'm not saying spoil them, but if someone came to the house and noticed you had no toys of any sort and you weren't obviously poor, your mom would get into trouble, or at least questioned. Basically, this is really messed up. But you don't have to pay her back, no way. What's she going to do about it? Get someone involved if you need to, such as the court or police. Sounds like your mother is psychotic.

I think several good suggestions were made: 1-Tell her you'll pay her back after college (so you don't risk loosing the funds) 2-After a year of saving up on a good post-college job buy her back the exact same shit like diapers and toys and kids clothes. 3-Have *her* mom produce a similar book. 4-Leave and never keep in touch ever again...except once: 5-Send her a single picture of your baby years later; write on the back "not keeping tabs of her expenses"
