More specifically, If you discovered that your great grandmother left you an inheritance BUT your parents (the ones meant to protect you from harm) spent it and then tried to cover it up, what would you do?💭
It all depends on how much inheritance we are talking about, over what period they spend it, and what did they spend it on. If you were living under your parent’s roof as an adult and continued to live rent free and being provided for, then you have no say in it. It’s your parents! If they spend it on alcohol or buying themselves a new car, that can be questioned. If the money was spent over x number of years to provide for you by for instance renovating the house etc. Again, they provided for you. If you lived in foster homes/shelter homes and they used the money, then that is questionable. Again, what did they spend it on?
When you say “Stole” your inheritance – if you were an adult by law – the money would surely be had been put into a trust fund for your or your account. My guess is you were not an adult then and your parents had guardianship and could use the money freely.
My parents always helped me out when I was growing up. My dad cosigned a car loan for me to buy my first car. If they took an inheritance that was meant for me, they probably needed it. If I got the inheritance I would have given some to them anyway.
You are not the only one this happens to. This type of thing is quite prevalent actually.
Didn't Brittany Spears go through something like that with her Dad?
Money is tight now a days s. If you are going to need this money they stole from you in the future, then you'll have to go to court to get it back.
Actually it could be a criminal offense - grand theft. They might get arrested, who knows?
If they still have your money, they need to give it back to you.
If they do that than that's on them, I don't like the mindset of relying on inheritance anyways. I would continue with my work and be okay with my income. I would keep relations alive but would keep my distance. I don't like to waste time on teaching people a lesson, life is too short for it. I am a firm believer of what goes around, comes around.

Wow, um lol 😆 i really don't know what I'd do. I know I'd be upset yet at the same time if I were to get the inheritance in the first place I would always give to and help my parents. The issue here is that these people didn't tell the daughter or son about the inheritance to begin with then spent it. So what is their son/daughter to do when they come up on hard times, need to go to college, lose a job? I'd be disappointed
My parents did well financially but squandered their money on themselves for the most part. They helped my sisters whenever they needed it but kicked the boys out as soon as they could. If I found out another relative left me money and they stole it, I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest like of course they did. 🤣
Not much I can do. I'd be sad that my grandmother didn't get to carry out her wishes.
I don't expect an inheritance from anyone, so it's no loss to me.
Take them to court so they can pay me for the rest of their lives lol but honestly they wouldn't of done that to me anyways since I'm their favourite.
It's theirs until they die. It's not my inheritance until then so they haven't stolen anything from me.
Life Pro Tip: never expect help from anyone at all. Always assume you are on your own and that it’s up to you to get ahead. That way you won’t be disappointed when things don’t go your way.
Extreme Ownership.
Nothing I'd still love them. They took very good care of me. Plus I have my own money thanks to them making sure I got a good education. I love them sooo much for always being there for me!!! My mom is in heaven but my dad is my best friend 🧡
I'd give them one and only one chance to admit they were wrong and return the funds owed.
If they didn't return was was mine, I would see them in court and cut them out if my life permanently.
I do not tolerate thieves.
Depends if it was supposed to go directly to me or if they were to hold it, probably have a talk with them
This really depends on your relationship with and situation of your parents. I would never find myself in that situation, but if I did, I’d probably lawyer up, but that’s just how I am.
They can't since it comes directly from th rdd m at death and the test they have for me is locked from anyone opening it until they die, they can only put money in it.
Actually I signed my inheritance from my grandmama over to my mom. Not doing so would have negatively affected my existing income, and mom and I share the funds anyway. She’s a very special person.
I wish I had the funds to get her a new mouthful of teeth. Implants, not mere dentures.
I woudl've gotten a receipt for that slipper lol 🥿 🎿 they're expensive y'all 😆
I'm a USA American. We sue over everything. 🤷🏻♂️
Sue their asses off. Of course, they could file bankruptcy and have judgements eliminated...
I would sue them
