My Entitled Parents let my Brother STEAL all my MONEY - Reddit Finance Podcast

[@LuccaRPG]

Story 1: Aunt is the true MVP in this story and we need more people like her. I have disablities and work with kids with special needs. Parents who do this kind of crap only end up hurting their kids and make them unable to deal with anything as adults.

I am pretty sure that the reason the parents got mad at the brother for ransacking their room was because his behavior finally started hurting them. When the brother ransacked the op's room the parents didn't care because they weren't being affected in a negative way.

[@chrislanglois8275]

they were by the accusations and guilt. but it wasnt enough for them to look past their special son and somehow they didnt seem to think stealing was wrong themselves unless it affected them.

My brother ruined my birthday, someone else’s birthday, and stole my motorcycle.

[@Reaper-bd9bl]

That last story? I feel for them. I could see my grandmother doing that. She always used to overstep on everything with everyone. People let her get away with it because she was a little old lady and was always 'nice'. But me, being the eldest and most "outspoken" grandchild, I started setting up clear boundaries and consequences with her. Nothing like elder abuse, but stuff like, "Alright, you took my truck, which you have no claim to, without my knowledge or permission. I'm keeping the keys hidden from you and i'm not talking to you for weeks. No, I will not let you use it at all anymore, no matter what you need to haul. Should have thought about that before driving it across half the state." You HAVE to set boundaries and enforce them with people like that. When they cry or whine, tell em to suck it up. They are grown adults, and need to act as such.

[@GloriaAkpan-db5ow]

Good job

I was always told, by my mum who works in child care, that all kids regardless of specific needs should be taught boundaries and right from wrong. Those first parents are just awful.

1st Story: As a person with special needs who is a parent of a child with special needs this kids parents are abusing him. And I'm talking about the brother. Special needs does not mean a child can't understand boundaries. My child knows boundaries and if he oversteps them we have an immediate conversation about it. We talk about how he would feel if someone did that to him and he understands what it means to see things from someone else's perspective. Special needs is helped with patience but not with ignoring them. This kid has more issues that have been instilled by his parents lack of parenting than anything he was born with.

[@josephvancamp1158]

This is the same kid who threw a birthday cake at a birthday boy and wouldn't let his brother have a birthday party cause it couldn't be about him. And this is the same kid that stole his brother's Mini-motorbike

Totally agree, as another special needs person with two special needs kids. Boundaries are so important, for every kid.

[@riseandshine5874]

Absolutely, yes. remember, SPECIAL NEEDS DOES NOT MEAN FORCIBLY IGNORANT.

[@MarrisaPlays]

This is an issue we have my sister-in-law who is special needs. my mother in law babied her and wound up several times having to call the police on her in her teens because of her getting violent. Aside from the required hold for such a call she never really had any consequences fo it. Now shes in her late 20s and is a ward of the state. She has been kicked from many many programs for violence. The only reason she's with the state is that my mother-in-law got covid and was stuck in the hospital for almost 2 months her sister made the choice to start the paperwork to sign over my sister-in-law because she wasn't going to be able to care for her especially since while she was in the hospital my father in law passed from covid and left her with so littly income that she couldn't afford to pay for the homes anymore this was an issue she created not him, Also the physical and mental side effects she had from covid she just cant anymore. Ive been with my husband for 12 yrs now, its been a wild ride with the inlaws. and Because her mother refused to teach her how to act her mother spent a lot of time alone because no one could handle being around her daughter who is most definitely not as incapable as she pretends to be at controlling herself and acting in any way civilized.

[@aldranzam3456]

I'm autistic too, and ngl I've stolen a few things but I was aware it was wrong, I just knew I could get away with it. It's not about being able to tell right from wrong, it's precisely about being smart enough to measure the consequences. And if the brother knew there were no consequences, why stop?

[@Strix1213]

Exactly, they need to be taught, sometimes more than the average kid. Some need accommodations like extra testing time or being able to have music (or noise cancelling), but none of that calls for allowing your kid to straight up steal and ruin their siblings room like that.

So yeah, it's about time you cut her off, and kudos to your husband for sticking with you on it

[@kaiathon]

Agreed

[@chrislanglois8275]

agreed 100%. even more so the fact she was only ever "nice" like a manipulative r/nicegirl she was nvr "kind" which the difference is basically being selfless in everything, selflessly caring, helpful and accepting all that u r especially ur diet even more so the more yrs uve been on it. kindness is a dogs love cuz they love u unconditionally beyond a humans capacity cuz most great dogs with great owners love u more than themselves. being nice is helping cuz it feels good especially if it helps u. being nice depends on how u feel not the person u care for no matter what ur doing for them. i mean ive always thought like this even more so when hearing about "nicegirls" but if u google niceness vs kindness it explains this. glad i grew up thinking like this without needing to look it up or b taught it by my "nice" dad. they needed to go no contact from the 5th time they teased meat in front of her when giving her little to eat. say for 2 months minimum, make it clear b4 and after y u did and to care more selflessly and without ulterior motives. then go the extra mile and say b4 the next time they cook or pay for food if they try to secretly give u meat ull call the cops and claim food tampering. simply describing the meatball scenario to most cops would likely get them arrested at least and should definitely work out in court if u were to go that far. i mean ffs shes pregnant and being poisoned b the witch no matter her intentions.

[@cinderheartmeow6032]

2nd story I have ADHD and anger problems as well and honestly i’ve faced a few breakups like that before due to disclosing those things to my partner and then them gaining a fear of me due to that even though i’ve managed well and never been physically or emotionally abusive and almost always willing to talk (aside from working hours). I recommend not disclosing the anger/trauma problems to begin with because people will often, unintentionally or intentionally, use that against you as a reason to separate instead of being willing to tell the truth. At the very least you should talk through that and make it clear that you would never physically or in any way intentionally bring them harm. It’s an odd pattern but I’ve realized that it is a pattern at this point and I never want my partner to feel fearful or uncomfortable disclosing why they truthfully didn’t fit with the relationship or feel afraid of telling me the truth for traumatic fear of retaliation. I want the people I love to be truthful even if it hurts. I know that I still have a lot to work on but I wouldn’t ever want someone in my life to feel uncomfortable telling me how they feel about something I said or did and that’s why i’m working with my therapist to this day to get better and understand how to function and be a kind or understanding person.

[@KatanaHatake01]

Second story: my dad is a ex-alcoholic and his anger always came out more when he drinks, and I thought it's not as bad as my mom described because I had never seen it myself, until a wedding where his family made him drink more that a few beers and he was really horrible to me, and it's really scaring, so I can see maybe why she might have been upset if he has a history, but I would not have held it against him for long

[@smol_angr_void7224]

1st story, holy hell those parents are ruining both of their children's lives. If they love that 'special' brother so much, they should keep him and let OP live with the aunt - you know, the one that actually cares about him. 2nd story, she's for sure controlling, but they're both immature. When someone has hurt you really bad in the past (as OP said he did) the smallest thing can make all the pain come back, so it definitely makes sense that she would use those instances because the wounds have reopened and they feel more recent. Definitely his choice whether to drink in his own home or not, though; don't know who she's kidding thinking she has the right to dictate if a grown man can have 3 beers in 3 hours 😂 Over all, I side with OP more than the gf 3rd story, that woman is CREEPY AS HELL! Since she has no respect for OP or apparently even her own son, I can't see her having respect for the child. Maybe for her actual kindness, she gets to see the baby with everyone else in the family on holidays while supervised, but she should not be permitted back at OP's house after that. Unacceptable, overbearing, and self-centered behavior unbecoming of an adult.

[@LordGlacier7]

The MIL being creepy as hell is a huge understatement, she literally trying to starve op during family gathering by making everything with meats on purpose and then she acted like she is being respectful and caring to op just to trick op to eat meat which causes food poisoning.

I would make a plan in the last story. I would sit down with the mother in law after the kicking out as a whole family. Then I would tell her everything, that I was so happy, when I met her, that she felt like a mother, that I see how much she cares for her grandchild. Then I would tell her the negative things, that I am afraid of allergies, that I feel like she is poisoning me with meat, everything. The next step would be to go no contact for a few days and then she gets one last chance to earn back my trust. If she tries one little thing than she will not be able to see her grandchildren. She seems not like a totally evil person. Maybe there's a reason to the meat-story that needs to be addressed.

@@JY-ek4ux I think it’s an example. Because again for small children it doesn’t have a lot of testing and because the COVID Vax (any of them) is based on a formula similar to how we make the flu vax, it’s not recommended for small children, as virus strains are unpredictable and childrens immune systems might not be able to handle both at the same time. Therefore possibly putting them in harms way without consulting the parents.

[@smartypants8533]

I think you are over exaggerating. Mil didn't try to poison her. She has no medical reason to not eat meat(if op did id instantly say nta), so saying she can't eat it as opposed to she doesn't want to is an exaggeration. Lack of meat in her diet has made her intolerant(her own choices caused this). She threw up, she and the baby weren't going to die from eating it. Comparing eating meat(without a medical reason not too) to a vaccine that is not recommended and possibly dangerous for small children is ridiculous. I applaud op for standing up for herself because mil refused to except her lifestyle and tricked/forced op to eat meat but to be honest she and husband brought all this on themselves. Red flag was mil taunting her with meat and refusing to allow op to bring food she can eat, that should have been reason enough to limit contact especially in regards to food. It sounds like they let mil treat op horribly the entire relationship and now somehow it's unacceptable because op unknowingly ate meat. They both knew mil had been doing this to her for years and they allowed and enabled it to continue. I have zero sympathy for someone who allows themselves to be treated horribly for years and finally decided to cry victim when it goes to far for them. So in my opinion esh. Op for allowing her mil to treat her horribly for years with no punishment or consequence along with allowing her to prepare meals unsupervised. Ops husband for not sticking up for his wife, not enforcing boundaries to protect her, and allowing mil unsupervised access to meal prep for her. Mil for refusing to accept and respect Ops lifestyle.

[@wcemichael]

@@smartypants8533 No.. Technically "poisoning" was not her intention, it just had 99% of the same effects. If you know someone has food allergies, you keep that stuff away from them. Technically a restaurant isn't trying to poison people, by serving bad clams or whatever, but it's still called "food poisoning" and get into major trouble over it. I don't like vegans pushing their beliefs on meat eaters, but I would never try to give one food poisoning.

First one, LAZY parents who clearly have a favorite child. I was technically a special needs child myself, so seeing this kind of excuse is just annoying (and believe me, people use this excuse more than some may realize). They are gaslighting their oldest (which, funny enough, I went through despite my special needs) and setting their youngest up for failure when they grow up Second one, not an expert in relationships, but a grown person does not need permission from a partner to have a drink in their own home (assuming that OP is not a recovering alcoholic). The last one, total monster-in-law. Not only is she beyond disrespectful, she sounds manipulative as well. She's pretending to be nice while doing incredibly, intentionally mean things to convince her victim it's just in their head and they are misinterpreting things. Not only that, what if OP had a serious medical condition with certain meats (like alpha-gal)? If OP had one of those conditions she and her child could have ACTUALLY DIED. This MIL is dangerous. If they do keep her around they absolutely should not let her be around the baby unsupervised, and she should be banned from serving any food or drink

I once had this happen. I saved up 600 dollars in my wallet to but a new game system and when it arrived I was still a work and guess who was using it at home? My brother. It already had signs of damage such as a crack and paint chips. I was so mad. My mother came up to me and said did you get a gift for your brother and i immediately disagreed. She then yelled at me about "whos it for?! Not just for you I hope!". At that point I snapped back at my Mom saying that I've been saving up for the last month of my career to get it and that my brother had no right to open it and damage it. I then tried to rip it out of my brothers TV and he immediately started crying and fighting he was 16 at the time and I thought he was so pathetic. My mother came in and shoved me out saying "it's his console! Not yours!". At that point I called my dad about the issue and we'll he wasn't happy. My dad was always a up standing guy, always fair and reasonable. When he got home he immediately yelled at my brother to give me the money and after a lot of crying and "I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!" From my brother and wearing from my mother I got the money back. Props to you dad your the best

So he deserves what he has coming to him, it is what it is.

"He's special needs" is just really saying "It's too hard to teach him." If he really is special needs, they should be educated on his specific condition and how mainstream he can be as an adult. Then they should be learning, with whatever help available, how to meet or exceed that level of function. Otherwise, they'll be limiting him to possible homelessness, institutionalization, or prison once they are gone.

[@TheLordofDarkness1995]

My brother has done this in the past. He has stolen money off almost everyone in the house at some point. Until a few years ago, my dad refused to believe he was stealing from us. Until my mum stepped in and forced the issue. He was always given far more leeway than the rest of us because "He doesn't know better". Of course he doesn't because he refused to address it. To this day, he usually refuses to listen to anyone except our parents. And even then he stops doing what he is told when they leave the room.

He DOES know better, but he chooses to be violent because other people's reactions are funny to him. I had to tell my grandmother especially that if she doesn't ACTUALLY punish him, he WILL get in serious trouble later in life, because law enforcement and other people in public don't know he's special needs right off the bat.

One beer per hour is literally the guideline for NOT getting drunk in a person of average size.

Even if she lived IN the same home, I wouldn't call that worth mentioning. But she was cross country and asleep.

[@stadot1427]

I'm trying to figure out what could be going on with the girlfriend. Personally, I feel for her being a bit nervous about his drinking, especially if she has some kind of past trauma with a drunk person or alcoholic and he's not currently in therapy. It does seem like a bit of an overreaction, but I do want to ask if drinking had anything to do with his being an angry person in the past.

​@@stadot1427 Yeah, there's more to this story, clearly. One beer quickly becomes several whenever an alcoholic starts drinking after holding up for a while. The alcohol content also increases over time. I've seen it personally.

Here's a little segment of the first story that was left out: His classmates at school were another story. He was caught looking through the backpacks of other kids many times. And he was forced to return stolen stuff, and then sent home, where he'd cry to mom and dad, who then tried to have words with the school, who berated them on letting my brother think what he was doing was ok. They had to teach my brother that it's no ok to go through other people's stuff. And I actually heard him say "But I wanted what they had" a few times. This excuse got used again when my brother stole an envelope with birthday money from a cousin during their birthday party. He tried to stuff it in his shirt and walk out with it later. But the cousin noticed it was missing, and I suspected my brother right away and pointed everyone to him. He ended up crying and thrashing when my dad found the envelope hidden in his shirt. We left that party early.

[@CrystalGreymon]

Third story reminds me of a similar story about someone who ordered exclusively Gluten-Free at a restaurant. The staff member who took their order didn't get them the Gluten-Free stuff. So when they reacted poorly to it and needed medical attention because they could have killed them, said staff member lost their job. As I recall, the person was offered compensation and declined because they just didn't want any fuss made about it.

[@TheNewGuard]

first story is just reminds me of my past. not about money but about between me and my sister. every time we fought , my parents are just defends her no matter what happened. even if I am the one who got hurt. one day she just pushed me for an argument. if I wasnt fast enough I probably hit my face to edge of the wall and broke a few teeth. my response is the same thing but to the couch which is softest thing in the living room. she starts crying for nothing while Im moving to my room my dad just yelled at me to come over here. I am also furious about the argument and I knew what happens next. before my dad judges me I sarcastically says " yeah father I have no right to defend myself, I have no right to defend my argument, I have no right in this goddamn house. if you just gonna yell at me for no reason I dont care now go check your pretty princess because she's completely fine" and went back to my room and lock the door . after that day, everything changed. of course we grown up and we are rarely arguing. but mostly her fault and now they realize it. if they didnt treat her like a princess and saying yes everything she wanted and just to keep her quiet, nothing could happened.

Story 1: want to be super petty and teach a lesson, the hard way? Amass 2k, let your brother steal it, if your parents don't want to do anything about them, report them for disability fraud. Your brother won't be entitle to any kind of aid or assistance if he has 2k in "savings," be it in a piggy bank or an account. Or, you could just do what me and my brothers did when we had a disagreement, settle amongst ourselves. Story 3: "I feel stupid and paranoid" And so you absolutely should, because, a vegan eating meat, doesn't instantly reject it from their system, it takes a few hours, your body has to attempt to digest it first. The only time your body instantly rejects something, is when it'sa concentrated poison; its why you vomit hard when you drink too much alcohol. Sure, she admitted it was pork; but here you are serving up an over embellished story of symptoms that just don't happen, spreading stupidity and paranoia.
