The problem is OP engaged in this tit for tat and negotiating amounts with her mother instead of immediately filing charges. A DA is probably not going to get involved at this point and say it's a civil matter. It is entertaining though that the mother keeps asking if OP is gambling or on drugs, like lady, you're the one that was clearly desperate enough for money that you committed insurance fraud at the expense of your own kid, do YOU have a drug or gambling problem?

First story, isn't that fraud? The money was in OP's name, not her mother's, especially if OP is over 18, and her mom sent in (presumably signed) paperwork in order to collect. OP, *please*, I am begging you. You need to sue your mother or press charges or file a complaint with the insurance company or something because you are legally entitled to that money per your father's wishes.

There is update from 3th story and oh boy, op parents are psychopats. When op mother kicked her boyfriend from apartment, his kids stayed at his friends house he was homeless. Op mother stole op cellphone to not contact her boyfriend, she treaten she will kill her boyfriend. Op tried to sue her mother but they didn't had any evidence of her mother saying such things, so they installed cameras. They are slowly collecting evidence from fraud that op mother did, pretending that she was her daughter. Op said that her parents are old and on retirement and have nothing better to do. Plus, op psychopath mother is helping ex wife of her boyfriend, she wants him to loose rights to his children also when op mother changed her insurance, Op is left with 50k debt from hospitals bills. Also op mother went to police to arrest op bf, she told police some false stories about him.

It’s identity theft-and way illegal. She needs to be brought up on charges. This is an adult woman who was “taken against her will”? I’m so confused why it took her a month with her psycho family before calling a friend to get her out of there.
Story 1: OP seriously needs to take their mother to court over this money. She committed insurance fraud and will NEVER give it back unless forced to. When OP finally get the money, freeze their credit, take all your legal documents with them, move out without telling the mother where they will be going and go zero contact.
Story 3: Please tell me you called the cops for identity theft, fake reports of abuse, stalking, breaking and entering etc. Your boyfriend could have locked his kids because of her, whatever evidence you have please turn in so she can be arrested, and help your parents understand that severity of how much they f***** up.

Loyalty is one of the main things you are raised being told is critical, basically programmed, you aren't required to like your family, but you have to be loyal. They mix the abuse with love. They would cry while hitting us, saying they didn't want to do this, but that we made them. They have other families as friends who are also abusive so that everyone can sit around and literally laugh about what is going on, so it was 100% normalized. I had some friends who had parents worse than mine. They also made sure that every bit of news (or movie/tv show) about horrible foster care or abusive adoptive families was talked about/shown regularly. Comedians who had bits about violence within their own households or childhoods were regularly played. We were raised that this was normal, and they had enough examples of worse that we thought we had it not just good, but great. Mom passed away about 5 years ago, but to this day still, my dad thinks they were awesome parents. (Mom found God beforehand and spent many many hours (on multiple different occasions) apologizing for things that they did to us in our youth.

@@SoManyRandomRamblings god this resonates with me hard. My mother and brother were my abusers, she encouraged he violently attack me, she neglected me and forced me to bring him up as if he were my own child (it’s an actual miracle I got all my school qualifications), she neglected me and made sure I knew I was “the reason” life was terrible, she had problems, etc etc. She was adopted, an abused child herself, but she got adopted into an absolutely amazing family who loved her, they did NOT bring her up to behave this way, but she did anyway. My Gran constantly at war with her about it but she could only do so much, as she was ageing and her health wasn’t good, so she tried HARD with my mother but just couldn’t get her to show me basic kindness or love. Because she was adopted? I was instilled with this fear of going into care, despite the fact I absolutely should’ve been put into care, that I’d be assaulted, I’d be SA’d, that I’d wish I was dead, that fear was pushed into me HARD whilst also being taught “family loyalty is everything” As an adult I cut all contact, because family loyalty doesn’t mean anything if you can’t treat your daughter with basic love and kindness, where your son is the only child to receive any love. It took a LONG time to overcome that feeling of serious guilt like I’d done something wrong by standing up for myself, like I needed to apologise for standing up for myself, like I needed to crawl back and beg forgiveness. That Stockholm Syndrome feeling is hard to fight against after a lifetime of abuse and manipulation, thank you SO MUCH for putting those feelings into words.

I really hate the idea that people can just raise their kids in a vacuum. That's really not possible, unless you're going to live off the grid as a bunch of hermits? It's always "how dare you talk to my child that way" or "don't parent my kid, that's my job". It's not just on parents to individually raise their children. As a collective society, we raise the next generation whether it's directly or indirectly. That's why there's always hope for children being raised by incompetent parents. SOMEONE out there will correct your mistakes.

Critical thinking is hard for some people, apparently. Alternatively, all the non direct physical care components of her healthcare were handled by a bean counter in an office somewhere else completely removed from the situation, and only looking at and considering the paperwork and payment details. No thought given to "Hey isn't this from the same patient thats supposed to be in the icu? Huh. That's strange. Maybe I should check into this more." Or they noticed, but were told to ignore it and shutup and get back to their actual job.
*First OP:* This burns me up. How much of a POS do you have to be to steal money from your own child? _Especially_ when you're financially stable, and your kid is just getting by?

Honestly, unless you've been in a situation like that you don't really understand what it's like. For me it was my "friend". And I feel stupid every day for not doing anything sooner, because "he's a friend. He'll pay me back, he said he would". Well, he still hasn't. He saved my bank details on his PayPal, because he wanted something that didn't cost much, so I gave him my bank card to buy it. I didn't cancel my card because he said he has a kid on the way and needed stuff. I knew it wasn't my responsibility to pay for a kid that isn't mine, but I kept thinking, "you don't want him thinking you're jealous if you say no. You want him to still be a friend. His kid needs nice things". I guilt tripped myself every time money came out of my account, and told myself "I don't need this money as much as others. I could use it to help", even when it wasn't for his kid. He used my money over PayPal to spend a couple nights in a hotel with his girlfriend a few times, decorating her bedroom, and stuff for his car I bought. I regret it, because I could've put a deposit on a house by now. I could've used my grandma's inheritance on me, and not someone who didn't deserve a penny of it.

Dude, you don't understand how hard it is to move away from a parent that is financially abusing you. I've got several friends in a similar situation, but they were so neglected that they don't even know how to drive a car and their parent(s) use them as wage slaves. This mother is leeching money from her adult offspring to keep them from being able to afford moving out.
Story 1: As someone who was also raised by abusive parents, I wanna say that it's really hard to see how bad your situation is when you grow up in that.

She was well aware of the fraud already and she's an idiot for going along. Gaslighting and manipulation won't stop you from having boundaries if you're not dumb...

She let it happen bc emotional and financial abuse by a parent is lifelong and confusing as hell. She's not naive, she's a victim of abuse. If you grew up with a kidnapper and they manipulated you to think they were your family, what do you think would be the natural reaction for a kid? *Thinking they're family* would be. That's why being abused from childhood to adulthood is so rough. That's why OP can't see it like you can.

OP like many people fall victim to the moral axiom of loving and believing our parents no matter what, but the sheer number of PoS parents that take advantage of it is astronomical, a child being manipulated like this is as old as time.
Story 1: OP needs to move fast before statute of limitations makes it so she can't get the money back.
Story 3, those injuries are why you should ALWAYS have an airbag!
The story about OP's parents kidnapping them was really hard to hear. So much so I had to pause and come back hours later to finish it. Holy moly. I agree about OP basically putting themselves into witness protection because MAN. I cannot fathom the amount of pain and turmoil not only OP but her boyfriend was feeling. She better marry him if he stuck around for all of that because that was insane.
Similar thing happened to my family. My dad’s bio father died when he was 1. My bio grandfather was a very very wealthy man so my dad had a large sum of money that was supposed to go to him first in small payments to help with raising him then a final amount when he turned 18. Soon my grandmother remarried to a total douchebag who decided they would steal all of my fathers money and spend it on some scam, where they ended up losing it all. This happened 50 years ago. My father still hasn’t taken any legal action. My mother and I are trying to convince him to after my (step) grandfather drops dead
Just found the first post. She updated 3 days ago about contacting 5 law firms! Hope one takes her case. She is scared to go through with it and feels like a terrible person.

Dude, I don’t think I can handle this subreddit anymore. The stories have always been horrible, but story 3 is a literal nightmare and hopefully OP’s life flourishes once she finishes untangling it.
The story with the car crash got a whole lot more scary when they mentioned bruising around the ears and black eyes. Those 2 are commonly sign of a major and fatal traumatic brain injury called a basilar skull fracture.

This is exactly what I was thinking too, I've seen about a dozen or so cases of this in my career, and they didn't have a positive outcome except for one, and the permanent damage severely limited both the patient's quality and quantity of life. As soon as you see the "raccoon mask", your heart aches for the family, because you know what lies ahead for them 💔
Story 1: OP needs to seriously work on self confidence
I agree with R/ on the first story the OP needs to leave like immediately Being financially drained by an abuser at the age that Op is at is scary because she’s in college trying to get her life in order and she has a money leach on her Leaving her entitled mother is probably the only way to get everything better
Wow, enough just isn't enough with Op's mom, she got $500k already! How can any parent like this one take from their kids like this? Even committing fraud to make themselves happy. I hope OP gets a lawyer and takes legal action against her mom ASAP, hopefully there will be an update soon~
The second to last story: I work in the medical field and it isn't uncommon to have your information password protected. Nothing can be changed insurance wise, medication, pharmacy. It's actually really common for people to try and mess with others by impersonating them.
Story 1: Yeah, this is not something to get used to. OP needs to get a house as soon as possible. Then, OP can sue. The mom may play the victim, but OP has the evidence
I've said it before and I'll say it again: If there's isn't one already, I hope there's a specific layer of Hell for parents who steal from their children!

There is, I believe. Tretchery!
First story: OP has added an update, which is this: "Not sure if many people will see this, but I’ve contacted 5 law firms so far for consultations and will be discussing everything with them. I’m still absolutely terrified of going through with anything but I’m trying to push myself through. I’m terrified that I’m not deserving of the money and that I’m a terrible person for doing this." So yeah, the reason why she's scared of suing her mother is because of all the abuse she went through to the point that she's scared that if she rebels against her mother in anyway shape or form, her life will be further ruined than it already is. It's amazing that emotional abuse can have these types of effects on a person and I think is why these parents do this to their kids. Third story: To think while OP is at her most vulnerable state, her family would take advance of it to remove OP's boyfriend from her life and get her back and make sure she stays with them for, let me guess, the rest of her life.
The OP of the first story is the encapsulation of how one can be really smart yet whipped into submission. Like, she had the smarts to call the insurance company and basically get everything in writing that the check was submitted and cashed in her name, plus the litany of texts from her mother about the money yet, is so beat down by her that she just keeps trying to reason with a monster. OP knows how her mother is tactics wise yet seems to be hopeful that her mother will just give her the money with enough time which will NEVER HAPPEN! Hopefully commenters on that post gave her some great advice and a year from now we will get a "Best of Reddit Updates" video where she sued the everloving crap out of that monster I mean her mother and got a GREAT payout.
My gosh OP in story 1 is infuriating, she should sue immediately. She has the evidence she needs, OP is the victim and I feel really sorry for her but my gosh it’s hard listening to that story without screaming at your screen.

Right? It's like, listen, you absolute idiot! Your mom is a criminal and you are an absolute doormat. Do you love your mom more than you believe in yourself. Do you have such little faith in yourself that you are willing to carpet bomb your future for your mommy?
*Story 1 OP:* I agree with rSlash. Move out, get a lawyer and file a police report for your mother’s insurance fraud. Good luck OP.
For the first story, I can’t imagine how fucked up her childhood was to have her tolerate having 165K STOLEN from her, that’s literally enough to start your life in any way you want, the fact she’s content with petty arguments rather than sending that witch to prison is beyond me
Story 1: GET A LAWYER! Sue your "mother". Sue the insurance company. Call the police. Report your mother for fraud. That's the only hope you'll ever have of seeing that money again.
Third story : Wow... with parents like that, who needs enemies.
Mother in story one, are YOU gambling? Are YOU doing drugs? Where is all YOUR money going?
I'd spend every second of my day trying to ruin thiefing mom's life. Make her homeless, send her to jail... take everything she has. Nuclear f'n revenge. Story 3: Same thing. Break her.
Last story: "I agree to those conditions. I never wanted to see your kids anyway. Bye bye" If you're going to make a threat, make it heavy enough to think about it for more than five seconds
Rslash came from a functioning loving family and it shows. It isnt as easy as "well just move out and dont give her money" when you're a daughter of a narcissistic sociopath, you have a warped sense of reality and responsibility. The fact rslash, after reading so many narcissistic parents stories, knowing how difficult it is for children of narcissistic parents, would openly victim blame is disgusting. "I'm not victim blaming but I'm gonna victim blame" no! Unless you have experienced being a child of a narcissistic parent, you have absolutely no right to blame us. It's not as easy as move out. It's not as easy as dont do what they want. It's not as easy as go no contact. To us, this behaviour is normal and we have no idea how to break that normal. We have no support, we are brainwashed into believing we deserve this, this is what love is and all we are worth. It takes time and strength to break out of the fog. Being a child of a narcissistic parent is like drug or alcohol addiction, you have to hit rock bottom before you can get better. Dont be a dick, just have some compassion.

@@audreym3908 thank you, I am. I've been no contact over 20+ years but unfortunately still live in the same town so occasionally run into them :-/ it took so many years to get out if the fog. I make jokes about my childhood, the abuse, the fact my mum made me ANA, put me in foster care, etc. But I've also heard all of what rslash said. When I was a kid my mum would kick me out, leave me homeless for days and then report me as a runaway when school asked questions, this went on from ages 6 to about 11 ish. When I was 11/12 my mum voluntarily put me in foster care, this meant she could decide if I was in care or at home and boy did she know this! She would put me in foster care until her government child money stopped, bring me home until she got paid it again, rinse and repeat until I was 16. Even though I knew what she was doing was wrong, that the abuse I suffered was wrong, all I wanted was for my mum to love me. When I was 13 I learnt about munchausens and narcissists and sociopaths, when I was 15 my therapist told me my mum was a narcissistic sociopath and she had been diagnosed as a child. Turns out, we didn't move a lot because my mum liked to travel, we moved a lot because my mum was never supposed to have kids due to her instability (I'm Norwegian, my siblings are English, we moved a lot from Norway and England and eventually settled in the uk) it wasnt until my late teens/early 20s that I started limiting contact and eventually went no contact. At 31 l, after years of therapy, I'm in a good place. I'm happy, I'm as healthy as one can be with genetic and life limiting illnesses and disabilities lol, I'm engaged and we are in a good place in our lives. I am self aware of my actions, I am more than aware that my mum will NEVER love me (narcissistic sociopath) and my siblings will never defend me against her (also narcissists), that whole family is toxic and I am so much better off without them BUT when I needed surgery for my endometriosis in august 2022, when I was told in march 2020 that I will never have kids, when I was told in December 2015 pregnancy would kill me and when my 4 month old twins died in march 2012 all I wanted was my mum. I knew opening contact would be more hurtful, I knew she would never support me, I knew all the insults she would throw at me but that didnt stop some tiny part of me saying "what if?" What if she will be? What if shes changed? What if she does love me? What if..... and unfortunately THAT is the reality of being a child of a narcissistic parent. The what if of life. When you're in the fog like the op in the story, you tell yourself it's normal, all mums behave this way. You tell yourself "shes right! She did raise me for 18 years" you tell yourself that giving them money is ok this time because what if they've changed? Itll be different this time. I've been a victim of SA and DV, and honestly, being the daughter of a narcissistic parent is exactly like a DV relationship. Nobody sits there and says "why did you dress like that then?" Or "why didnt you just leave the 1st time they hit you?" But they'll always say things rslash said. It's the same relationship as one with an abusive partner. If you wont blame a victim of DV or a victim of SA, why would you blame a victim of a narcissistic parent? Because the truth is, being a child of a narcissistic parent or a narcissistic family IS a domestic violence relationship! It is a form of DV and people forget that too often. So, rslash, would you blame a DV victim for staying? Would you say those same things about someone who is being DV? Would you say it about someone who had been SA? No? So think next time. Also, anyone who starts off with "I'm not victim blaming but....." is gonna fucking victim blame and you should just not say it. Its literally the equivalent of "I'm not being racist but...." just dont do it. Whatever you were about to say, just dont. Edit to add, sorry for rambling, I wanted to help people understand and English is not my native language and I rely on Google translate lol also, I'm not looking for sympathy, I just wanted people to take an example of my NM abuse and understand that despite the awful things we experienced, we still want their love and validation. That it's not as easy as just walking away.

Finally.
Kidnapped story does not add up. As someone who does benefits: 1 The participant (OP'S boyfriend), not op, is the only one who can make changes to the plan. So, even if she pretended, her mother could not get her dropped. 2, A qualified life event is needed to change benefits, and a car accident is not a qle. Also, a letter sounds so convenient. As for the hospital, are they supposed to believe that the person they are treating... With severe brain fog, wrote a letter, left the hospital, and then nailed the letter back to the hospital to stop the boyfriend from visiting when she could have just told a nurse? Verdict: OP is a karma farming liar.
The car crash story the BF was understated, understandable with everything else. His life was put through hell too, but he continued to take care of her kids and it sounds like he never abandoned her.
For the first story I see so many "I cant believe OP let her mom do that" or "why isnt OP taking steps to get the money back" as if being raised by someone like that doesnt make this kind of behavior seem normal and make it easier for the mom make her do these kinds of things because of the years of this behavior OP has had to live with all her life. This isn't a random occurrence, this has most likely been the way her mom was all her life. "My mom forced me to go and withdraw $20k" is very much a thing the mom can do with the mental conditioning she's given her daughter. It's not a matter of "just say no lol" it's a matter of "this poor woman has been living with her mother and seeing this behavior all she wants and probably was going into survival mode to keep things from continuing/escalating and wasnt considering the word 'no' as a proper response at this time" Shitty parents arent usually found out to be shitty until it's too late, dudes. I used to worship my father. In return, he manipulated and traumatized me.
Story 3 - cutting off is not enough. You had your identity stolen, you were kidnapped, and abused. Wtf?? Call the cops
If I found that paperwork, I'd have offered my mom two options. 1. 300k in cash, or the deed to the home. Or, 2. I'm going to the cops for identity theft, insurance fraud and potentially conspiracy if anyone assisted her. She'll be lucky to ever breathe fresh air again.
Third story: sue the hospital for negligence if they kicked you out during a snowstorm leaving you with no choice but to drive home in the storm they are negligent. They should have known kicking you out would have a substantial certainty if an accident could occur in a snowstorm.
2nd story, perfectly justified ethically to smack that kid and if the father has anything to say about it give him a good smack too.
I can’t with the first story. How are you gonna give someone more money after they stole from you and after you found out they have thousands in their account. 🤦♀️
I honestly thought story 3 was to be much different before the crash. The talk of dropping soneone at a hospital would involve a parking lot Karen. My dad had a parking lot Karen in a hospital lot trying to leave through the entrance blocking him from entering and picking someone up. Of course he was blocking her from leaving and didn't move because he was entering and didn't want to back up into a busy street and wait for her to leave the wrong way. To which this lady threatened to charge him with her car. Which he thought and I quote "Yeah, your little 4 cylinder sedan is going to take down my 6 cylinder crossover." She moved out of the way realizing he wasn't moving for her. That's what I thought OP would encounter
Story 1: OP contacted some law firms and is waiting to hear back from them. Story 2: Actively trying to hurt animals is a warning sign, I feel like if they continue down that path we'll see that kid grow into an abuser/killer Story 3: This almost reminds me of Misery... Story 4: lmao that money would never go to the kids but to the "mom"

People who are being abused do not allow their abuser to abuse them. Abusers abuse.... and the victim feels psychologically trapped. It's not about allowing or not allowing, and it's not about simply moving out. The girl needs help.
Oh my God…. That first story raised my blood pressure so much. I am having heart palpitations. I don’t know who I hate more, the mother or OP. Ever want to reach through the universe and LITERALLY BEAT SOMEONE SENSELESS?! After listening to the rest of the stories, the rage has boiled even higher. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!?!!
OP's parents in The second to last story sounded a lot like the plot of Misery. 😬
Story 3: OP, you have to sue the fuck out of your parents. I am pretty sure that you will get a FUCK ton of money out of them.
I was in awe about the first story. If my mother did that, the next time I would see her would be at her funeral. She needs to have gotten out there yesterday. And sue her, that’s insurance fraud.

I met him when we were 20-21 in the Marine Corps. Me and four other friends had to convince him to stop sending all his money to his mom, it was so bad that our chain of command ended up getting involved. She had access to all his bank accounts, had general power of attorney and opened multiple credit cards in his name. He's no longer in contact with his mom or sister but he now lives with one of our buddies working on a farm and our buddies mom has been doing everything she can to show him how a mother should love her children.

For the first story, she needs to get away from her mother yesterday. As someone who has been abused by parents, trying to make them happy will just cause misery for you. The best you can hope for a happy relationship with them is small talk and always keeping them at least an arms length away. These people destroy relationships and even lives if they're given the chance.
As someone who grew up in an abusive home, I understand why OP in the first story has been making these poor decisions and not moving out from her mother's home. Living in an abuse home, especially when it is a person's parent - a person who from infancy we depend on to literally stay alive - is to be brainwashed to the point of not being able to understand that we are full-fledged human beings that are entitled to our own needs and wants. Yes, OP 'should do' so many of the things rSlash and people in the comments section are saying. BUT due to her mother's brainwashing it is unlikely that she is able to fully understand that at this stage - to understand that most of these options are even possible for her. It sounds like OP's mother has finally done something big enough that OP is able to at least entertain the idea that mother might be wrong and to respond to it. But removing that brainwashing is a long, difficult process, that usually requires support from a mental-health professional with experience in this type of abuse. Right now, what OP 'should' find a good therapist and start doing the work of healing from her mother's abuse.
Ah yes entitled parents stealing money from kids
Hey rslash great to spend another morning with you 😊
You can kind of tell when someone hasn't been abused by a guardian when they say no one forced you to do that like you haven't been manipulated your entire life and if you don't do it they literally have all the power over you especially if you still live in their house and they've been financially abusing you so that you can't move out
Tbh both the first and third story pissed me off so much. Specially the first one, like how do people allow their parents to abuse them so badly, sue their asses to the ground for abusing you and your money. Not to mention to get a restraining order and your money back.
RSlash never start a sentence with “not to victim blame”. That is what you did and saying that just made it worse
