Today, my mother woke me up and asked to borrow money. Still groggy, I mumbled where my money stash was. She took all $300 and refuses to pay me back because I'm her son and I "owe" her. FML

Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, my mother asked me if she could borrow $200. Being the lovely daughter I am, I gave her my bank card to withdraw it herself. She gambled it away and maxed my bank account out. I had $1500 saved. 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, 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 asked my mother to pay back the $50 she owes me. Rather than paying me back, she raced off to "work". She's been unemployed for 3 years. 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, 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, my mom stole my holiday money because she found it “near her bag” in my kitchen and “assumed it was hers” and she must have “forgotten it was in there all this time.” I demanded it back, but she’d already spent it on hair, nails, shoes, and a date night with dad. She won’t pay me back either. 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, 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 mother "borrowed" money from my stash to help pay for her vacation to the Dominican Republic. The same trip I'm not allowed to go on. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Eh, my mom took thousands of dollars out of my bank accounts both times I went out on deployment for the navy cause I could not check what was going on, on a daily basis while over seas. On the other hand due to age and health issues, I do not think she even remembers doing stuff like that, so I have pretty much let it go at this point.

My best friends mom is like that. Constantly asking for money. If your responsible enough to become a parent you don't need to borrow money from your child. Her mom does it for booze though. Even worse.

And the whole she birthed you you owe her is bs. She knew what was coming with pregnancy and she made the choice to have you. You never chose for her to give birth to you so you do not owe her anything. I'm pregnant and will never think my child owes me a thing because I gave them life.Not even after I pay college tuition. I know damn well what I'm getting myself into money wise and I'm 21. That's ridiculous.

She asked to "borrow" or to "give" the money? One implies she would repay but the other does not. Wake up and start carrying less cash. Aside from tow trucks, most legitimate transactions can be done with debit/credit cards.

I hate to be an asshole here but you kind of do owe her. I mean, think about it: she nurtured you throughout your life, spending a lot more than $300 on you. Of course, she shouldn't just take your money, but she has a point.

Nah, man, that's not how the world works. This is a year late, but the mom chose to have the kid and raise them. That was entirely her decision and as such she's legally, if not morally, bound to care for the kid until whatever age that they're considered an adult. It's not as if OP had any say in the matter and the kid doesn't owe her jack shit in terms of money spent while they were a minor. I hate when parents pull the "you owe me for being born/raised" card. What a cop out.
