Today, after a little detective work, I found out the money that recently went missing from my college fund was transferred by my mother, to her own account. She claims it's to pay a parking ticket. Maybe I'm just stupid, but I didn't know they fined people over $3,500 for a parking violation. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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 slipped money into my mother's purse after she refused to let me pay for lunch. She caught me in the act and thought I was stealing money from her instead. FML
Today, I learned that my daughter pocketed the money I'd paid so she could go to college. FML
Today, I got a $60 parking ticket for not paying the $2.50 pay-to-park fee. I checked my bank records, which proved that I'd paid the fee, for the correct space too. The problem is the fine is too small to contest in traffic court. FML
Today, I found out why my parents have been trying to convince me not to go to college this year. I also found out where the $20,000 they just spent on landscaping came from. My college fund. Which is now $0. 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, after finding $50 on the sidewalk this morning and feeling like the luckiest person alive, I got a parking ticket for $60. FML
Today, I got a ticket for "suspicious driving" because my total shit of a mother kept tugging on the wheel to annoy me, and I still had to pay it. FML
Today, I found out my mother drives my car. I was okay with it; I don't use it all the time and she's my mother. However, I was not okay with the multiple speeding tickets that came through in the post. "You're the registered keeper, so why should I pay?" FML
Today, I found out that a single unpaid parking ticket from September put my student account on hold and unregistered me from all my spring classes. I'm a senior and this is my last semester. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Parking tickets don't cost that much at all! Try and find a way to get your money back without her noticing?

It doesn't matter who saved it, OP or her parents. Fact is they've given it to her, so she counted on it. My parents always told me that you can't take something back that you've given to someone. So it's ****** up that OP's parents dare to steal the money from OP.

Don't let her walk all over you; get your money back. What she is doing is illegal, you know. I do hope that you guy's relationship gets better.

To be fair, "your" college fund is actually HER money that she's nice enough to GIVE to you, and you're whining that she's giving (remember, GIVING) you less than before? She should take it all and kick your ungrateful ass out to the curb. It's none of your business why she took it, it ain't yours in the first place!

You do realize that SHE took the money to pay a parking ticket that she got and how COLLEGE IS SO EXPENSIVE THESE DAYS? It's also OP's money for her god damn future, not just the mother's money. Mommy is just being a selfish **** stealing money to pay for her own mistakes.

Yes it is hers. It doesn't matter if OP's mother saved it for her. By saying it's her college fund she explicitly told OP is the owner, that makes it stealing. So don't go whining about being ungrateful. I'm grateful for every penny my parents spend on me, but if they took away my college fund they'd be dead to me.

Where did it ever say who put the money in? And even if the mom did put most if it in it was already given to op. and no matter how you look at it its an fml to find out you don't have money you thought you did. And having a successful educated child on the line rather than yet another ignorant waste of space it was incredibly selfish and irresponsible of the mom to use that money to basically just cover her own ass and to then also lie about it.
