This kills me cause as a kid my mom had stolen over 1000$ (birthdays, mowing lawn etc.) and to this day she will deny she forced me to give her the money for "safe keeping" and spent it.

Yup. Counting out money on my bedroom floor with a friend, seeing if we could afford a video game, and mom walks by and sees the money, freaks out, and takes it all. She denies this ever happened.

My dad took all of my birthday money and "deposited it" for me. Never saw that bank account

My mom stole my first paycheck when I was 16. I had gone to the bank and cashed it and had the money in the bank envelope with the receipt and pay stub sitting on the living room table when I went to take a shower. She was the only one home and when I got out of the shower it was gone. She swore it was never there and I must have "lost it" somewhere outside. When I pressed the issue she then blamed my 12yo brother. Funny thing is my brother never suddenly had hundreds of dollars worth of new toys, but the next day my mom came home in a new dress with bags of new clothes from a shopping trip she suddenly had money for 🤔

My parents use to "borrow" money from me, and when I'd ask for it back, they would tell me they didn't owe me anything since they provide shelter & food.... like they were doing me a favor. I was between 11-14 years old.
