when I get any other money, she demands an answer for what I did with my money. I'm 23 yrs. old with a college degree & my own apartment. When I was 18, this woman took my Social Security backpay check of $3,946 & my trust fund money from my biological dad which was $5499, & with my savings account, I didn't know her name was on the account, & the bank tellers are telling me that it's her right to take it because according to them, it's HER money. How is that if the checks say MY name on them & not hers? She won't even tell me what she did with my money, but then she demands an answer for how much money I have in my bank account & stuff like that, but she's so cheeky that she won't even tell me where MY money is & what she did with it. I was told it's too late to take her to court.
& with a little of the money, she took me shopping, & I was 18, going on 19, & she wouldn't let me pick out my own clothes & shoes, & then got embarrassed when I got mad. Wouldn't you be upset too?

Definately! It is not any of her business any more how much money you are making. You shouldn't tell her anything!
I would report her to Social Security...maybe they can file a suit to make her pay them back the money that she stole from you.
I'm sorry that she did that to you...that is terrible.

Raising you gives this woman no right to rob you. I was raised by my biological parents. I have always eating from the high end of the hog. My parents never asked me for my chump chain. When I got my first SSI check in '88, my father took me to the bank to begin my checkings with the $685 and every cent that's been put into it has been mine. I've worked since '95, though and became "too rich".
This money is yours. What does your foster mother have to do with your biological family anyway? And you're on your own paying bils at that? Is this woman one of River Phoneix's old drug buddies or what?

Can you close the bank account you have now and open another bank account with a different bank? If you did open another bank account, ask if you can have it in your name, or have your account ONLY accessible to you, and you only, not to your mother.
If your mother found out that you closed your bank account and demands to know where you bank at, at least tell her that she has to find out for herself since your money belongs to you, and not her. Also, if your mother finds out about your new bank, and she is still taking your money from your new bank account, you should get a bank in a different town since your mother may not want to drive to a different town since she would waste a lot of money on gas alone.
I hope this helps in any way.

when you were under the age of 18 and she had custody of you.she was legally in controll of your money.i would contact the department of children services or the social worker that placed you in her home and ask them for advice or contact legal aid sounds like thier maybe a legal lupe hole and she might have to re pay some of that money back to you.your foster mom got a check every month just for having you thier and she also got a yearly clothing allowance for you .so she had no right to touch your money take her to court.

I would be mad as well, but at this point what I don't understand is why she is demanding anything about what you do with your money now. You are an adult and not under any of her control. I would distance myself from her for the time being.

its time to tell the woman to F off and live you own life. Change banks, phone number and move to a new apartment. IF she persists on finding you and harassing you get a restraining order against her. It is time for you to stand up and be your own person never mind how she feels. Cut your losses and move on...... you will be much happier.

Yeah, I'd be upset.
You're not still sharing a bank account with her are you?
If so...it's time to open up your own account.

I'd threaten her with a lawsuit and see if any of that money comes back to you.
