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

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
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
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, after months of helping my mother with bills because she claimed she had no money, I found out she makes way more than what I do. She just wanted my money for alcohol and drugs. 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 discovered that my mother has been stealing from me to cover her mountain of debt. I’m barely making ends meet as it is. When I confronted her, she had the gall to suggest I get a second job to support her. 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, I finally confronted my mom for robbing me of my inheritance from my dad. Apparently she was justified in taking it because she "needed it to raise me" and "to keep a roof over our heads" as I was growing up. As a result, I'm an adult with no nest egg whatsoever. FML
Today, I found out that the $200 I reluctantly gave to my mother so she could rent a house was paid to a scammer. Now she wants to live with me, in my one bedroom apartment. 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, my mom's will was read to the rest of the family. I helped my mom write it a couple years ago, and I was to get funds to pay off school loans. She revised it and put in a note saying I was to get nothing because I was "lazy." The executor read it out loud. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Make sure you have every ounce of proof that you wrote it and you alone is buckled down and safe inside of a safe inside of 20 safes within a vault inside of the batcave just in case, as long as she can't cheat her way though your success all she can do is piss and moan.

Sucks about your mom, and don't worry, she has no leg to stand on. You don't need to give her jack shit. Congrats on the book! I'd like to know what it is called! I love me some reading :)

wow, making someone feel guilty for being born is pretty low. she had you by choice and was legally obligated to care for you. if she didn't want that she shouldnt have had you.

Tell her she's going to owe you back anyway when you have to take care of her when she gets old.

If that's how it always works no one would be able to make a living...not that you actually get much of a profit to begin with unless if flew off the shelves
