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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, 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 that my mom bet my dad $100 that she could pay my boyfriend ten bucks to break up with me. She is now $90 richer. 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, I found out that my dad has been trying to take money out of my savings account to pay for divorce fees and a hammock. FML
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, my dad asked to borrow some money off me, so I said okay. Later on, he told me he'll be using it to help divorce my mom. I pretty much just helped pay for my parents' divorce. FML
Today, my nosy mom opened my mail and saw how much I have in my account. She confiscated my debit card because she’s convinced no one could save that much working part time at Burger King and is demanding I confess where so much money came from. I'm moving out. Fuck her. FML
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, my dad had something to tell me. He'd cleaned out my bank account to pay off 38,000 dollars worth of gambling debt. My wedding is in 5 months. FML

I'm pretty sure she's not allowed to do that, talk to a lawyer OP

Yeah you can sue for that; mother or not, it's monetary stealing.

Well, at least we have an idea of the reasons of their divorce.

To the people who said this is OP's fault, please explain yourselves.

That's definitely illegal and you should get a lawyer to solve that.

1. Child support is for you, the child. 2. Go close out the account. 3. Tell the court at the hearing that your mom has been taking money out of your account. 4. Since I am guessing you are a minor, the bank has to have a parent or guardian on the account. I would see if you can have the court set up an account because she is not allowed to do that. They can allow her to withdraw if she has permission from the court. 5. If you don't want to live with your mom, see if you can live with your father. She would have to pay child support then.

that is theft, pure and simple. you are not your father and therefore are in no way liable. she must get him to pay her. report her to the police.

>wants money to "support child" >takes money from child Totally reasonable...

If her name isn't on your account, that's theft. If it is on your account you need to prove the money wasn't hers.
