<prompt> Human: Hello! Im in quite a bind. Long story semi short, my grandfather purchased stocks for me my brothers years ago. He gave them to my mother he says when I was 18, she says when I was 13. I asked her for them a few months ago she played dumb. Grandpa told me today that she has them was supposed to give them to us. When confronting her this morning she admitted my oldest brother cashed his in during financial hardship she chose to sell all of my other brothers most of mine. Flashforward to tonight after tons of arguing she finally gave me a statement for mine. She is on it as the custodian but my name is on it as well. Im not sure where to go from here. I no longer want her to have access to them because she lies steals. She claims it was with our familys best interest in mind, but it feels so much dirtier than that to me. I know nothing about stocks so here are my questions:-do I even have the right to feel violated angry? Because Im fucking livid. -how can I get her off of the account?-is there a website to do all that or a number to call? -is she able to steal what I have left from me without me knowing in the meantime of me figuring this all out? Please- somebody help me!! I have no one to turn to until I return to work Monday at the bank lol but I really need info now to ease my mind so I can sleep. Thank you!!  <response>: I think you should be mad. My parents told me that I was given stock and never touched it. My cousins got similar stock although their parents never told them about it. They are over 18 and have never heard of it until I told them recently... I dont think its any different than stealing. Depending on how the stocks are held it the way to change the ownership is different. Figure out what company they are and how those companys manage their stock, it might be through UBS or a smaller website as is the case with me. That would be who to call. I think you should be able to switch the ownership on your own, after you provide identification, even without knowing your account number etc... It is possible yes. Although if she is only a custodian and she does things without your consent, I would guess you are able to take her to court.Good Luck. Im not a professional just someone who has been in a similar position without the unfortunate luck...
