Oh I so sorry to hear this why don't you set down a talk to your mum.and explain to her it is my money I claiming pip t due to me having a illness and I'm very great full For you too look after me and support me in every way but I'm now 18 and a adult and I would like to become responsible for my own money what about we both come to angreament and give me some of my me money and watch how I am with it see if I am senceball with my own money

Hello @The_guy

Welcome to the community!

I am so sorry to hear that you feel your PIP isn't going towards needs, you would like to use it for. I would encourage you to sit down and talk to your mum about it. If you feel you are still not being listened too, I think reaching out to Citizen's Advice for additional support could be helpful.

If your mum is your appointee and she's not using the money in your best interests then you can contact PIP to tell them this and ask them to remove her as an appointee. https://www.scope.org.uk/advice-and-support/removing-an-appointee/
