Re: Family drama - how do I get past this?

[kallanda_lee]

I don't know - I can see how a mother wouldn't just discard pictures/drawing of their kid even if they're an ass?

I think what matters are her actions now. Is she still catering to him? making excuses for him?

OP

Thanks. It's good to get someone else's perspective on that.

No, she's definitely not catering to him or making excuses for him. She actually complains a lot to me about how hurt she is by what he's done, which I think is part of what annoys me about the pictures...if he hurt her so much why would SHE want to see the pictures and be reminded of him? I just don't really understand.

Because people get like that with family. Well, SOME family, and especially kids.I honestly don't think you just "erase" a child, even a shitty one, but ymmv.

OP

No, you're probably right. I don't have kids, and maybe that does make a difference. I like to think I'd have handled the situation different than my mom did if I were in her shoes, but I guess I can't really say since I haven't actually been there myself.

Say you have a dog. He bites you hard enough to break your hand one day. You have no idea why he did that or why he went crazy, but he was such a good dog before. Then you find out he bit the neighbor in the past but you never knew about it. You wonder how long he's been biting people and what's wrong with him and why he's been such an asshole. But you still love your dog even though you're confused and hurt and angry. Would you throw away all your pictures of him from ten years ago when he was a puppy?

^ Not saying your brother's a puppy I mean this is prob how your mom sees it

OP

Honestly, I'm a bad person to ask about that because I was attacked by a dog as a kid and wouldn't even own a dog to begin with (but if for some reason I did and he bit me I'd not only throw away all my pictures of him, but I'd get rid of the dog).

But I see your point. I've quit speaking to friends and extended family members because they were total dicks before, but I guess it is different when it's your kid.
