Honestly, the entitlement is what the issue is here. Whether or no she’s your mom doesnt matter. The fact she thinks it’s owed to her and takes it even though you’ve talked to her about it is not okay. I do have to ask though, are you helping with the bills? If so, I would definitely start hoarding food in my room. If not, I would use a little extra to buy foods she can eat as well. I completely understand the irritation. Nothing is worse than buying food for a specific reason and having someone eat it all up😐 my entire life I always asked if I could eat something regardless of where i was. My grandma used to tell me “whatever is here is yours, too” and I’d still ask if I could eat it😂

She bought groceries for you and didn’t charge you. I think this is a lil much. Buy extrA bread for the house. She is your mother. Now if she making food for others then I’d sAy something. One thing I was taught to never fight over food, money, or boyfriends. Good luck🙏🏻

It’s bread!!! Seriously? Or anything else she wants to eat. Maybe ask her if she wants anything from the store. If that is the least of your worries you’re doing pretty good. Make his lunches in advance. Can’t even believe this is a problem. She is your mom!!!

I don’t know the whole back round of this posters issues BUT I will say…I have grown children that know my home is open door policy for them and my grandkids.Whether it’s for a meal,money to help out or a place to stay.Thats what mother’s…or most good mom’s…are supposed to do.If your mom in return makes a sandwich with bread you bought,let her! I’m sure she’s sacrificed a time or 2 so you could have so no need to act selfish and petty

In our family we take care of each other , my daughter and granddaughter live with my husband and I and have for yrs , daughter only pays two small bills 1 every month 1 every other . If we pick up dinner we usually pay she may once a week , she and childs father will buy for GC lunch because she carries lunch to school. Sometimes my husband and I buy stuff for lunch for GC. But I have always been one to prepare my plate after everyone is finished eating to make sure my family has everything they want during the meal . I always get my takeout last in case someone is not happy with their food. It is a mindset, my mother and father both have taught me to give first then take care of yourself . My mother is 82 yrs old she sent dinner to my home last night because she wanted too.
I say these things because you said I pay my way how ? Does your mother own her home ? If she does do you pay the taxes for the shelter she is providing , do you pay homeowners insurance , do you pay, if the stove breaks a water pipe burst. When you went back home did you have to come up with first and last months rent? Think about everything that goes on in life then go to Walmart buy a footlocker and a mini fridge put your food in footlocker with a lock on it then get a fridge with a lock and do the same . Then when you have to run out the door for five minuets yeh just five don’t ask your mom to watch your grandchild because she will but you complain about food.

If your paying Bill’s rent, utilities, and things like that put the dry stuff in your room if it’s that big of a deal. I dont know my mom, but insert my daddy in your mom’s place. He could eat any damn thing he wants. Bit if it’s that big of an issue, hide it and then find your own place🤷♀️
What do you mean by paying your way? If you pay 500.00 dollars a month rent plus half of electricity, cable, and water, plus t.p. laundry soap etc. If your not doing that your not paying your way. Why are you living with your mother if you can pay your way. When I go to my daughters the first thing I do is raid her junk food. I’m on disability and can’t splurge like that. She’s never complained.

Either get your own place or shut up! She’s still supporting you and your child, water and electric and roof over y’alls head and your bitching about some $2 loaf of bread! My god! This generation fucking sucks!
Have you told her that it’s for the kid (not you) to be eating? If you have and she’s still eating it I’d be so mad. Everyone needs to eat but the kid always comes first. Maybe talk to her about using a part of what you give her for staying there just to buy groceries that way everyone has food and everyone is happy. I hope things work out for you. Living with my mother in law was pure hell. She would throw food and drinks away if she didn’t like them. I could go on and on about her but I don’t wanna get worked up hahaha. Anyways good luck sweetie. If you want someone to talk to just message me. No judgement

Many of you assume that the majority of parents are supportive loving parents. Those that aren’t raise their children with emotional imbalances. Some maybe impose their physical anger. In any case, many grown children don’t have supportive parents.
I’m thinking some of your suggestions give her choices to help her situation. I have one suggestion, which may be cheaper in the long run. Pay for the child’s lunches, if the child is of school age.
I didn’t have supportive parents. There were many nights I went hungry bc I fed everyone first. That meant by the time I was done serving everyone there wasn’t any food left. I was 5"1" and 85lbs.
Don’t judge, just offer suggestions. Thank you.

Ok so we DON’T even know the history or dynamic of their relationship. Just because she’s her mom you cannot imply she is a saint for all we know she’s living there to help out with the bills🤷
If by “paying my way” means she pays $500/600 dollars a month plus half the utilities then they are basically roommates. Sorry but if my roommate ate the food I’d purchased for my kid I’d be pissed. Now if she’s just freeloading off of her mom paying $100 a month and considers that paying her way and pissed off about food then she needs to move the hell out. And I would feel sorry for the mom 
for raising such an entitled assshole.

I buy my grandsons food and certain things like his school snacks and certain foods he wants at home are for him. No other adult in the house is allowed to eat it period. They are grown they can go buy their own. My mother would never take my grandsons food in fact she would make sure he didnt run out. My son has a fridge in his room and he gets his own foods he likes and drinks and no we don’t touch his. But we all make sure the kitchen has plenty of food for everybody. Its all about respect. And nobody comes before a child period.

Seems like a lot of people on here don’t understand where you are coming from and I understand both points of view maybe get a couple of plastic bins…one for the fridge and one for non-parishable items and for the things that you buy for school lunches go in them with " childs name school lunches and snacks" written in permanent marker on them. Then if it continues get a mini-fridge and keep the items you don’t want her eating in your room.

You could never pay her back all you owe her. She has provided for you for years! Second, you are still living with her. There is no way your expenses now are as big as they would be if you and your son were completely on your own. You might try buying extra “snacks” for all of you. When you have done as much for her as she has done for you you might could ask her to buy some snacks to share with everyone, but that time will never happen!

Without knowing the history between y’all, just because you live with her doesn’t mean her eating all of your stuff (and especially your kid’s stuff) is alright and I bet anybody commenting would actually be raging if it was them it was your mother’s job to provide basic necessities to you growing up, you didn’t ask to be born, and you don’t owe her for them.

If not, do not say anything and start looking for your own place.

Holy crap… you guys need to learn to read! She states that she is paying her way ON TOP of buying her own food. She isn’t freeloading off her mother and it isn’t her responsibility to pay all her mother’s bills. I’d mention it to her once more, then resort to keeping it in your room. But only assuming you don’t eat any food she buys. Works both ways.

Separate it. Do you have your own space/room that you could put a small cabinet or one of those pop up closets in?
That way you can just remove the temptation all together.
Also…mini fridge!! Although they are a few hundred dollars at least it’s a one time buy! (I think come are even cheaper, look at it as a dorm room)

Are you paying half of all the bills?Rent,power,water?Not just a little bit,but half?If you are then she is being a crappy mom,and grandmother for eating your sons food.If not stop complaining.Get your own place as soon as you can.I’ve been there,but couldn’t help with most of the bills.So I cleaned,cooked,etc,and bought food when I could.You can keep the food in your room,in a cooler and on a shelf.
Mini fridge in your bedroom with a lock
So, your mom don’t buy foods and told you gotta but your own foods with your son? I’d be so damn pissed off about that I’d tell her off mother or no mother in my eyes and let her grandson Gose hungry because she wouldn’t buy herself foods, that’s low
Do you pay her to live there? What do you do to help out? If you don’t contribute, then she has a right to eat up. Rise up and get your own place. Your mom owes you nothing. You are old enough to have a child, it’s your responsibility, not hers.

Lock it up somewhere else. When i moved back home with my 2 year old i was barely making above minimum wage and going to school fulltime. Money was tight for me. I paid rent and my own food. my younger siblings would CONSTANTLY eat my sons food put aside for lunch, breakfast ,snacks. I started keeping what i could stored in my room (shelf and mini fridge) and my room locked since asking them to stop didnt work.

For all y’all saying to move out or calling her “disrespectful” she helps her mother pay bills and she buys her and her son door while her mother probably buys her own but constantly gets into theirs. Do you know how hard it is to move out, it’s so much easier said then done now a days. I know from personal experience because my SO and I have been living on our own for almost 2 years now and it’s rough being on our especially since we hadn’t gotten completely on our feet and had a baby on the way. So y’all judgemental people need to mind your own business and do as your parents told you. If you don’t have my thing nice to say then don’t fucking day anything at all👌
I’m sorry but that is your MOTHER. We have 6 people in our house, and sometimes we don’t have much, but we never stop anyone from eating. Not everyone is always able to pitch in for groceries but that doesn’t mean we don’t let them eat or get upset when they do. We make it work, even if we had one piece of bread left, no one would be left out. Maybe you can give her the option of going together and split the bill so that there’s more food, so it can be shared. We are all in this together and should figure it out together. I don’t understand why everyone is so distant and cold with their families. Life is too short! if your child has a special diet restrictions, you can label them or keep them closed up somewhere. But otherwise I think you need to choose your battles wisely.

Not sure why there are people laugh reacting to this? It’s a rude thing to do. When I lived with my parents, in a house hold of 6 people, it was very clear that what I bought for my son was not to be touched. Especially considering I paid with it using my food stamp money. It’s disrespectful.

Mom or not… you don’t know the back story, the grow up childhood back story was not provided therefore wtf is the point of making a point like that. If I was in those shoes I’d be mad to. I’ve been there with my dad. That’s why you don’t live with family unless like another person said you have no choice! And FYI my dad lived in my house and we still had that problem. Who knows maybe her mother didn’t raise her like my dad didn’t. Gtfo with all hat bullshit.
To the mom and son, start going to the pantry. It’s food, and eventually someone else won’t eat it. But if everyone is gunned enough they will! Cheaper that way! Less headache till you get where you need to be boo
Move out, problem solved.
