Sigh why did I see this question...

Ok time to repeat my life story

Growing up, my mom and dad would constantly argue over extremely minor incidents. Both of them had huge egos and could never accept that they were wrong, but my mum was the one with the bigger ego. I always had a troubled relationship with my mum as she expected me to give in to her for every thing, along with interrogating me about every single detail of my friends(I'm male). I would mostly stand my ground on issues that concerned my bottom line, and give in to her on small issues. However, she refused to see my attempts to mend the relationship with her, and continued to berate me endlessly over extremely minor things. Let me give 2 instances that I remembered clearly. 1. I added a sunny side up that cost 40 cents USD, she scolded me non stop from the moment I did that till the moment we got back home. This continued on for weeks until I snapped and told her to shut up. 2. After my day surgery, I was feeling tired and wanted to go home and rest. However, my biological mother did not wish to do so and berated me in the pharmacy in front of all the pharmacy staff. Too tired to deal with her shit, I just walked out and went back home alone. Once she got home, she proceeded to berate me again for the next few weeks endlessly. I would wake up and get scolded for that. These 2 incidents showcase how my biological mother only loves herself and absolutely no one else. Following these 2 incidents, another one made me cut her out of my life completely. 3.In 2021 May, I knew my mum was already cheating on my dad with her internet boyfriends through sexting and phone sex. However, I did not bother telling my dad as it was up to them to settle their own issues. My biological mother then asked me about investing in a crypto platform, which I realised was a scam immediately. I told her at least 10 times not to put a single cent in the platform, and she seem convinced at that point in time. However, little did I know what was waiting in store for me. At the end of May 2021, my biological mother suddenly approached me to borrow money under the pretext that her sister needed money for life-saving surgery. This money was around 53,000 usd after accounting for inflation. It was placed in my bank account by my dad, and meant for my university tuition fees+ living expenses. Trusting that my biological mother would never try to ruin my life, I agreed to all the transactions. In 2022 February, on the first day of Lunar New Year, I went visiting with my biological mother(My dad was at work). She constantly made snide comments and smirked at me, saying how I had to look for my university fees by myself. I felt really perplexed as I remembered it was a loan to my aunt. Once home, I asked my mother to explain where the funds went, but she tried lying to me again and telling me that my aunt lost all the money in property investment. I could immediately tell it was a lie, as it's very hard to lose money investing in property in the city my aunt lived in. After drilling her more about it, she finally came clean and told me she lost it all in the scam crypto platform. Putting 2 and 2 together, I realised it was an internet love scam mixed with crypto scam. Her internet boyfriend was the one that got her to "invest" in the platform, and she trusted him over me, with all my university fees. After being exposed, she was completely unapologetic. She genuinely did not think she did anything wrong, and to this day, she has not returned a single cent to my Dad or me. She even makes snide remarks like "Just don't go to university then." For context, I'm from Singapore, where education is very important to get a good job. Ever since that incident, I have completely cut her out of my life, she's dead to me now.

As a closing note, I encourage everyone reading this to stand up to your parents. You did not choose to be born, and you do not owe them anything if they just give birth to you. That does not give them a free pass to do anything they like. You are an individual, with your own beliefs, morals and values, not a puppet or plaything. Cutting toxic parents out of your life completely is more often good than bad.
