I just applied for a job and I was really excited because it’ll be my first job but now I’m overthinking things. My mum told me before that she’s gonna make me pay her once I get a job but I really wanna save to move out. Every time I get money, she makes me spend it. I couldn’t manage to hide my money or low-ball on the amount that I had because she gave me an allowance and she gets mad any time I don’t wanna answer her when she asks how much money I have. I don’t know what to do anymore.

      That is abuse. You need to reach out to someone outside of the situation, like a friend or a trustworthy family member, and tell them what’s happening. Please be safe and do your best to get out of there. We went through that same thing and it was only because of a friend’s help we were able to leave. Financial manipulation is a tactic to keep you from leaving. Please please please be safe. Get help, and get out as soon as you can. Be reasonable and don’t let desperation get you into another bad situation. Stay safe. You’ll be in my thoughts. —Hawks

      Your mom is financially abusing you and manipulating you as a parent. I hope you're able to save / escape the situation. What consequences are you currently facing (or threatened with) when you don't answer or give money?

      That is awful, I second with what Pluto said. Seek help if you can and be safe.
