AITA for wanting the full bill money and not just housing/tuition. For context, my dad gave me the Gi Bill.
Last quarter, my parents paid by credit card up front around 6k for the dorm room. They were paid back in full by the Gi Bill because they received around 9k. I didn’t touch the money going into the account that the Gi Bill money was going into. I let them have all of it because I wasn’t paying for my car (I wasn’t using it at all) and I felt that was covering it.
This quarter, I got a scholarship and so they (my mom) paid 1700 up front (this was the full bill for everything related to school). The money just came for this month which was over 3000. I left over 2 grand to cover car expenses plus the 1700. I texted her this and my mother started blowing up my phone. Talking about how entitled and ungrateful I am. She just goes on and on and on and on and on. I started a new job this quarter, and she still wants me to give her more money for the car. I put the money back unfortunately (the money I had taken out).
I tried to ask her like where is the money going towards or is the Gi Bill not for school? Are we using this to pay general bill expenses? And she started bringing up all the things she pays for.
Background Info I feel is important: They got me a new car in December thankfully because my old one broke down six times over the past year. I do feel bad that there is that other car they still pay for, but they are selling it and I was paying for it before.
My mom has a history of not letting me see my bank account and taking over half of the money that I would receive from my jobs. I used to work two jobs in cc before going to uc. They pay car insurance, but won’t tell me how much it is so I have no way of paying for it. I recently got my own bank account because I am now at UC (not living at home). I now transfer money into an account that we both can see to pay for car.
While, I was going to cc, I never knew the exact amount for said car payments and insurance. I still have no idea tbh.
Anyways I’m just looking for some feedback on if I’m wrong in this situation. Thank you!
I posted in this sub because my mom’s dad is a narcissist and I think she picked up some of those traits tbh. My mom cut him off when I was 11 and she would lowkey use as a therapist. She would read out forums and talk and talk and talk and talk omg. She brings up the same stories all the time, it is really quite annoying.
