Mom Sparks Family Feud by Saving Lottery Winnings for Her Son’s Future Instead of Splitting with Siblings

This mom recently won the lottery. How many moms can say that?! It wasn't anything too life-changing, like enough for immediate retirement, but it was a decent chunk of change and enough to make a difference. With a disabled son who has racked up loads of medical expenses, she planned to save the money for his future, wanting to give him the best life possible. After years of struggling with finances, while her family offered no support, her priority is clear: her son. Any mom knows that when it comes to your kids, you'd do anything to set them up for success, especially when life has dealt them a tough hand.

But she made one mistake. She confided in her mother about the win. The comments lit up with advice, saying you should never tell family or friends about a lottery win because people will start to treat you differently. And sure enough, her mother immediately asked if she'd be splitting the winnings with her siblings. She was shocked by the audacity, especially given her family's lack of support. Now that her family is furious with her, this mom is left wondering if she's the one in the wrong.
