Mum sparks debate after forcing kids to pay for food they 'stole' from fridge

A mum has sparked a huge debate online after forcing her children to pay for food out of their own money. The woman is demanding that her kids contribute their Christmas money after they 'stole' the 'good stuff' out of the fridge.

Taking to popular forum Mumsnet, the parent questioned whether she was being unreasonable for taking money from her children after they ate all the 'chocolate and crisps' out of the cupboards.

She explained: "I took their Christmas money to replace the sweets and treats they took. We do a big shop once a month and I buy all the chocolates/crisps and other cupboard bits for the month."
