I’m Kristen, 17, and getting ready to apply to college. My mom passed away when I was little, but before she died, she made sure I had a college fund set aside. Since then, I’ve been adding to it with every tutoring and babysitting job I could find. That money was my future.
Then came Tracy—my dad’s new wife. She’s obsessed with her looks: always in the mirror, always buying something new, and never helping around the house. Total influencer vibes without the followers.

I was in shock. “Wait—my college fund?! You STOLE from me!”
She laughed it off. “Oh please, it’s not stealing. We’re family. It’s just money.”
I was furious. That fund was my safety net. And the worst part? My dad didn’t do much to stop it.
