AITA for getting mad when my mom broke my computer?

r/

So my parents like to take my computer when they feel like it, Even when i have all as and no missing work, and make me do stupid things or feel bad for wanting it back. Today i woke up to the same thing, it being gone and i had to finish work due in a week to get it back. My mom said it was hidden in between the bed and mattress of the guest room. I go to get it and the keys are falling out. My computer has a very weird keyboard that makes it nearly impossible to put the keys back. I go downstairs too tell her about what happens and then she flips it into my faults, saying i slam my computer and drop it(both of which almost never happen. I get angry because this is a very expensive computer i pay out of pocket for. She also told me she wouldn’t be paying for a repair of replacement. Am i wrong? Please help me out.

    If you paid out of pocket for your computer, they shouldn’t even be taking it like that in the first place (assuming you aren’t incredibly young). NTA. They broke the computer you paid for after taking it unnecessarily.

    I like to know op age but it doesn’t really matter if she broke it she should try to fix it if my dad did this he would do everything he could to fix it might take some time

    NTA. I bet she wouldn’t like having the things she pays for broken.

    NTA. She should pay for it. Install a lock on one of your bureau drawers and keep the computer in there. Go to a hardware store and ask for help. Or put it in your closet and put a lock on its door. Or put a lock on your bedroom door and keep the key around your neck on a chain.
