Well, it depends on what that person tells you.
What I mean is for you to find someone who knows or has a familiar background on the legal issues behind your story. Do your parents have a right to withhold money from you? Was that money truly meant to be given to you? Since you couldn't touch it until you were 18, it sounds like it was supposed to be your money. Since you gave it to your parents because of SSI issues, that could be a problem... like you're "hiding" from the law?
If what your parents are doing is really illegal, then you could press charges. However, don't forget that if this does go to court... there will be legal fees. So, you may get less than 100% of what you really owe. Unless, you also increase the amount your parents owe you based on the financial hardships and mental anguish that they have put you through. Then that extra money could cover your court fees and more.
