Some parents take the concept of “what’s mine is yours” a little too far, and this story proves just that.
A daughter (u/throwAwayWho818) found herself dealing with a pair of parents who didn’t just overstep—they straight-up took money from her checking account without asking.
Naturally, the internet had a lot to say about it, and the reactions range from outrage to disbelief, with plenty of people chiming in on where the boundaries should be when it comes to family and finances.
It’s a situation that feels all too familiar for anyone who’s had to draw the line between helping loved ones and protecting their own independence.
Whether you’re here to commiserate, judge, or just enjoy a little internet drama, this collection of responses has all the commentary you could hope for.
Scroll on for the full story and decide for yourself: were these parents way out of line, or is there more to the story?
