For some context I am 19F my mom is 42F and my brother is 17M I will call them Helen and Dan.

When I was 17 I fell down the stairs and hit my back really hard and got 3 herniated disks (that’s what they were called according to google translate) It took me about 3 months to get an X-ray because I was ”too young to get one”. In that time I had to drop out of high school. In Sweden we have different ways of high school and I was in the culinary direction. What there herniated disks did to me was that I fell without warning and that could have been really bad if I was holding knives or serving plates of hot food to customers. As a result of me dropping out I went to a like boarding school almost. It was a place to get my grades up to a point where it looked like I had graduated.

Before I joined that school my mom told me that she would pay for all of the expenses for me living at the school. (About 350$ a month). She did that on time every month. When August came almost a year later I decided to drop out to focus on my mental health as it was really bad. I had to move on the day I dropped out. Which was weird since the lease would end in 2 months. I didn’t think much of it so when I told my mom she had to pay 700$ for those months she got livid and told me to rule against it. So I did. They said no since it was in the contract. That was the end of it. Atleast that’s what I thought.

My mom then refused to pay. For 3 months she refused to pay which resulted it me almost going in debt. I managed to get that on installment. That’s what translate told me again. So basically I have to pay around 150$ a month for 6 months to pay it off. She is still refusing to pay that and I don’t have a job.

In October last year me and my boyfriend moved in together. He only gets 1400$ a month and that goes toward our animals,rent,food, other expenses. That makes it really hard for us to pay all of this. Yes I am looking for a job.

Anyways when we moved in my mom said we had to take my cat and my dog with us. Mind you we live in a small apartment. My family lives on the countryside and the dog weighs about 70kgs and is up my my waist. I am 170cm.

She also called my boyfriend a bad man and she would never date someone like him because he was checking his bank account when we were shopping because my mom wanted us to get every single thing in the store almost and he didn’t have the money for that.

A week into us living here we asked if they could take the dog back until we got the money situation sorted. She said no because it would be mean to the dog. As if making him live with two 20 year olds in a small apartment with complications paying for everything isn’t.

We are now trying to sell the dog. The people are coming to look at him on Tuesday. We were getting so much hate for getting a dog and selling him because ”if you decide to get a dog you have to take care of him” well we didn’t decide to get him he was forced upon us. We didn’t have a choice.

In march of this year I asked my parents if they could take lucifer (the dog) if we have to move in an emergency since we pay the rent like a week behind schedule and sometimes we have to borrow money.

My mom asked a whole lot of questions about that and got mad at me because I apparently said that we had to move right that second. I corrected her and said ” no I said that IF we have to move can you take him” that made her really mad.

We chat on messenger and there you can change background and nicknames. So she changed my nickname from ”my wilmis❤️” to my full name. She changed hers from ”mammiz❤️” to her full name and the background to black. Not even the default. Just black. ATP I was sick of her so I blocked her to just breathe.

My boyfriend got mad and called my brother to ask about my moms number. I will ”act” out the conversation.

”Hey Dan can I get Helen’s number?”

”Why???”

”Because she made OP sad and I just want to ask what she is doing”

”OP is stupid and is acting fucking bratty that is what’s happening”

”Just let me talk to Helen”

”NO OP is stupid and you should realise that she is instead of having 0 IQ and not realising it”

”Well you mom is fucking stupid for doing what she has done to us”

”DONT CALL MY MOM STUPID. Are you really gonna act like that infront of your girlfriends BROTHER? Saying stuff like that about her MOTHER”

Here’s where I screamed back at my brother.

Me: I DONT FUCKING CARE IF HE SAYS THAT MOM IS A FUCKING IDIOT FOR PUTTING ME THROUGH SLL OF THIS AND YOURE JUST STUCK BEHIND A WALL THAT MOM IS ALWAYS IK THE RIGHT”

Dan: THATS BECAUSE SHE IS. MOM IS ALWAYS RIGHT AND I DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR OPINION.

I didn’t hear the rest of the convo because my bf put him off speaker and tried talking to him and eventually got my moms number.

Now my boyfriend is from another part of sweden. I am basically from Texas and he is basically from New York.

All my boyfriend said that my mom said is ”Mumbling”

”Sorry what I couldn’t hear”

” I won’t even bother you can’t even understand what I say”

This resulted in me blocking Helen and Dan.

My dad dosent really care about what happened. He spends all his time working and has said to me that I’m still his daughter and that he loves me.

So AITA?
