Im really upset at my mom right now

I'm really upset at my mom right now. What she does is when she goes grocery shopping, she buys the food and other things, pays, etc. When we go home to put them away, she takes most of the food, gives me and my 4 other siblings (one's going to uni though) a little bit of it such as one granola bar, one pack of 2 cookies, or one rice krispy for each of us, and then takes the rest away for herself to eat up in her room. I find this really unfair and selfish because there are a lot more of us than her but we still get the smaller portion. She even does this with soap and toothpaste. She buys a large pack of toothpaste and soap for herself (there are 4 boxes of toothpaste and 8 or so of soap), she gives up one box of toothpaste for the 5 of us kids and takes the rest for herself. She keeps accusing us of eating all of the food in the house but she only gives us such a little bit of what she buys and then keeps the rest, so there's not much food for us in the first place. I can't say anything because my dad would side with her and my mom would simply say that she works for her money and can do what she wants with it. It's really unfair to us and it makes me quite upset that she thinks that this is alright. Considering we just got back from shopping and she just did it to us again, it just makes me so upset.

Sorry Basil, I just needed to get that out there. Knowing the community, there will be at least one post that will only consists of "nobody cares" or get over it" and I ask those people to kindly not post that here because it does not contribute to anything and is quite frankly, spam.

Wow that's messed up. If my mom knows that I like something, she will give me her portion of that food or snack and say that she doesn't like it. And I do the same. Go join a youth employment program so you can make your own money.

I wouldn't make a problem of it if my mom would be like that. If I don't get enough, I just hit the grocery myself.

I don't get your upsetness
