Hi yall,
I am sad because my Dad ripped me off big time yet again. I did some work for him at the big ranch we lease as a ranch hand. He told me he would pay me 500 dollars for my work and then he went back on his word and said only 300 dollars. He was supposed to pay me yesterday but then he said he was not going to pay me any extra. In his mind the 300 would be from making me earn my keep and make me earn my social security disability benefits by working which is illegal. So I got zero dollars that i was owed instead of the 500 dollars Dad told me he was going to pay me. My dad stole 500 dollars in wages from me.

I was going to invest the 500 dollars. Also I wanted to give myself a Halloween present since I did not spend any money on Halloween this year so i wanted to invest the savings but he would not let me so I lost out on quite a bit of money that way too. My parents are my rep payee because I am on SSDI and SSI. After I move out I am going to report my parents to Social Security for making me do unpaid labor for them to earn my disability benefits. I lost out on a lot of money because of this and it will affect me for the rest of my life. I am just sad. Crying.

Oh Man...that is not good ...Sorry to hear of this ....Let him know perhaps , that because of this experience you might not be able to help him out in the future Perhaps. Perhaps you might be ill the next time? Still wonder about his state of mental health possibly ,IMHO ?

Thanks Jakki. Ya I let him know that and he said he would not take me hunting again. We think my Dad also has Asperger's or at least there is a good chance of that.
