My Mom Keeps Controlling My Finances—And My Life! 😡

I’m a 21-year-old guy, and lately, my mom has been obsessed with controlling every cent I spend. She constantly questions my purchases, wants to know where every dollar goes, and even suggested we should have a joint bank account—like, seriously? Last week, she freaked out because I bought myself a new phone, saying I was wasting 'family money.' I work hard for my paycheck, but she acts like it’s all hers! It’s getting to the point where I feel like I have zero privacy or independence. Is this normal? Am I being unreasonable for wanting to manage my own finances? How do I set boundaries without starting World War III at home? Help me out, because I’m losing my mind here! 😤💸 #FamilyFinance #Independence #MoneyMatters #RomanticRelationships
