So just today my Mom asked me if my Dad can borrow $5 for the lottery. I lied to her that I don't have money (I do). Then out of guilt I confessed to her I lied and said I do have money, and got into a brief argument with her. I told her I refuse to give my money to my Dad, whom I have a one-sided tense relationship with. I kinda was especially angry that he'll use my money for the lottery. She said she or my Dad can pay me back and I still said no. She said something like "ok, do whatever you want" and the argument ended. This instance was not the first time he borrowed money from me for the lottery, but it was the first in a long time.
