Today, my parents decided to let me know that they used "some" of the money that my grandparents left me to pay for my sister's wedding, where it was supposed to be for all of my college costs. By "some" I mean all of it. Classes start this fall. FML

If it was your money then they had no right to use it. Since you are going to college I assume you are over 18. Why do your parents still have access to your bank account? Get them off it now and make them pay you back.

It's also against the law, so you could also talk to a lawyer about it. I hate when parents do things like this.

They are legally responsible to pay you back now. If they refuse try to hire a lawyer. No one ever wants to do it but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, even if it's your parents.

If they had a will you could go to court and get it back.

That's so ****** up. Yeah, because your sister's wedding is so much more important than your college. Your sister should be paying for it herself, anyway. If she and her fiance can't afford it then they should save money until they can. Make your parents pay you back, seriously.

That is so nasty of them. Some people are just so pathetic. I hope you win lotto and flaunt it I front of them

If they had access to the account it was in, not much you can do. Unless it was a trust, and the will explicitly states it was to be ised for schooling. Then you can sue the crap out of them. Either way, I'd suggest breaking ties. Favoring one child like that isn't cool.
