My mother depleted all of my grandmothers money, including a 200k pension, now they’re homeless together.
Where to begin.. I’m gonna use bullet points so it’s easier to summarize without being too long.
Not long ago I moved away with my aunt.
- My mom is insanely financially abusive, she chose my college for me, one that would give me big loans so she could funnel it out of me. Because of this I went hungry alone in a foreign country for months and lost 20 pounds. I’m in lifelong debt because she wanted some cash.
- I don’t even know how long she’s been using my SSN to open credit cards in my name but it’s been traced back to since I was 11
- when I came back from college and found that my aunt, who had been keeping the house afloat, had moved. Because of this we lost the house, our house was empty. My mom was squatting there, lying to me and my 12 year old sister that we still owned it. We squatted in a second house after that, and then my aunts new house. Through this process, my mom lost 90% of my belongings. Most of which was lost while I was away at college.
-my mom is addicted to prescribed pain killers and Xanax after a lifetime of surgeries and strong meds, doesn’t move out of bed, sleeps in trash
- because my mom was a sick kid, and wasn’t expected to live into adulthood, she was never taught any life skills from my grandma
-financial abuse with my grandma got really bad after she started getting dementia. My mom also hates my grandma, and my grandma constantly tries to get her to love her back to the rest of the families extent
- my 12 year old sister is still stuck squatting with them in an empty house full of trash
-we used to be well off from the pension and now we are poor. My mom spent all of it, inherited from my dead great grandpa who watched her grow up, she spent it ALL in 10 years
-she’s physically, emotionally, financially, and verbally abusive
-I have only been moved out for 2 weeks. Terrified they’ll become homeless. But I can’t do anything about it. They already are. Terrified they’ll end up on the streets. Mostly terrified for my sister because she’s innocent.
-because my mom has health problems she plays off her addiction as “health problems”
