Found out that my mom spent the money I inherited from my grandmother on my elementary school.

My family did something very similar to me when they were having hard times. They wouldn’t have been able to survive if it wasn’t for that money; and that’s probably what happened with your mom and the inheritance. She probably feels really awful about it but there’s really nothing you can do. Just write it off, do good in school, and get rich that way you and your mom never have to worry about money again. That’s what I did. I send my parents $300 every month to help them out. They feel bad asking but they’re so poor and they’ve always loved me and taken good care of me and did the best they could, $300 a month is honestly nothing to me right now so it’s the least I can do to help them out. I’d just write off what happened and look forward to your future. I know you’re probably upset but it’s not worth being mad at your mom over. She probably thought she’d be rich by this age and be able to pay you back every cent, unfortunately sometimes things in life don’t go the way we planned
