<prompt> Human: So, long story short, I wanted to return to college to work towards becoming a Registered Nurse. After working 60 hours a week for a year, I finally had enough to return to my home state of Texas and attend school. My parents really didnt approve of my choice but, they let me go on the condition that I wouldnt work while attending the summer semester and then they would help support me with my rent and car payments. I have tried to convince them to let me make the payments of the car from the time we they bought it for me so, that I could have it in my name but, they refused. They also wouldnt let me open up any type of credit account, so I have zero credit. My parents are very controlling and this is why they wouldnt let me work so that I would have to be dependent. I finally came to the breaking point, I was tired of constantly being treated poorly for no reason. Im a good student who has given them no reason to treat me this way. Anyways, they have decided to drain my bank account leaving only 10, and they are selling my car as its in their name. I have absolutely no idea what to do. I will not be able to make my rent, so I am moving in with a friend. But, I have applied for jobs and have been offered two, both requiring me to have a car as they are not walking distance to where Ill be living. I need help. I would have the ability to pay off a loan once Im working again but, who would give a loan to a 21 year old girl with zero credit? Any advice is appreciated. I am clueless when it comes to banking. Thanks in advance. UPDATE: Thank you so much for all of the advice! I know this will be a hard time but, I also know its completely worth it. I have two jobs lined up and will be starting one on Monday. I have also discussed with my roommate that I will pull my weight by cleaning and doing the chores of the house until I have enough to contribute to my half of the bills. I still have to ask my grandpa for a loan to buy a car this weekend but, even if that falls through I have my boyfriends dads truck that I will rent until I can buy the car myself. I am also setting up a meeting with a CapitalOne representative sometime next week to open up a new account, my birthday was Sunday so my boyfriend is paying for the opening fee as a birthday gift. Thank you all again. I was feeling very overwhelmed and down about this whole situation but, I know that there is light at the end of the tunnel and that I can do it.  <response>: Im curious... how much was in the account that was drained? You should consult a lawyer if it was beyond small claims amount I expect it was if it was going to pay for nursing school. Do you have old paychecks to prove that it was your income? And evidence of the transaction. It might also make sense to contact the bank and see if you can get the transaction reversed and have the account seperated. Even if it was a joint account, that was still your money, they had no right to drain it.
