'iT's OuR mOnEy': Hardworking daughter gets her college fund robbed after graduation when her parents surprise her with a baby brother and revoke half of her college savings

Wrestling student debt after you graduate college is a lot like taking on a polar bear in a 1v1, mano-a-mano fist fight. The odds are certainly against you, and even if you manage to beat the bear, you'll likely freeze out in the cold arctic tundra afterward. You may have hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans that you owe the Feds, but at least you took home a piece of paper that says that you know how to shotgun a beer before writing a 10-page research paper on gender studies.

Nowadays, prospective college students are arming themselves and either preparing for a 6 figure polar bear to battle post-graduation or they're looking into more financially sound decisions– unlike their millennial predecessors. In this case, one girl had an entire plan worked out in order to graduate debt-free, but 15 months before becoming a freshman, her parents went back on a financial promise they made 17 years earlier, stealing away half of her college fund. 

Keep scrolling to read on about how one hardworking college prospect got robbed of her college dream because her parents got the son they always wanted.
