My Savings Aren’t a Family Free-For-All! 😡💸

I swear, my savings must have a neon sign on them that says "ATM for Mom." Every time something breaks or she wants to buy something, she just assumes I’ll fork over the cash—like when our TV died and she told her friend, "Oh, my daughter will just pay for it!" right in front of me. I snapped, and honestly, can you blame me? She still owes me over $1,500 from the last time I bailed her out! It’s like my hard-earned money is just community property for anyone who can’t manage their own. I’m so tired of being treated like a walking piggy bank. How do you even set boundaries with family who just don’t get it? Any advice would be a lifesaver right now. 😤🫠 #FamilyFinances #MoneyBoundaries #FinancialStress #RomanticRelationships
