My boyfriend and I have been together for well over a year. We got together in high school, and he transferred to my college for the Spring semester. We are happy together, and hope to get an apartment for our Junior year of college. Because we'd like to be financially stable, we started a savings account together, to which we contribute equal amounts every week ($20). My parents know about the account, and because I am an adult, gave their opinion, but left it at that, and were generally supportive, and glad that we were being financially prepared. My boyfriend did not tell his parents, and somehow, they found out about our account. They freaked out, and told him we had to cancel the account or they would not pay for him to go to college anymore.
I'm extremely angry with them for butting into our privacy, telling us what to do with our money, and threatening to pull their support from my boyfriend. Am I out of line for being upset? And should I approach them about it?
