(Anonymous) 2013-01-25 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)One can be an ungrateful spoiled brat quite easily, when one forgets that one's parents are people not piggy banks, worried carers not jailers, older not stupider, fallible not pantomime villains.

(Anonymous) 2013-01-23 09:15 am (UTC)(link)"Of course you can't complain when aunt Muriel calls you a worthless stupid cow, she's faaamily!"
"Of course you have to give your hard-earned money to your shopping-addicted, extremely financially irresponsible sister! She's faaamily!"
"Your daughter secretly emptied your joint bank account to buy herself a new luxury car she didn't need? Well, you must forgive her, she's faaamily!"
"Oh, you can't tell uncle Horace to stop commenting on your weight every five minutes, he's faaamily! What did you say? It hurts that he keeps comparing you to an elephant? But he's just kidding, you should lighten up!"
Some people, to whom we might be tied by an accident of birth, are toxic - like strychnine.
Would you eat strychnine? No? Then why should other people be forced to around be bullies who make them miserable and delight in knocking down their self-esteem?
Life is too short to waste it around some "faaamily" members.
OP
(Anonymous) 2013-01-23 11:06 am (UTC)(link)I admit I wasn't an angel of a child, and I recognize that she could have been much worse, but she was a toxic human being and no amount of "But she's your mother!" is going to convince me that she deserves anything but to be shown the door. My brother went to the furthest-away college he could get into without going overseas, and he's stayed there. My dad nearly committed suicide and only when he was on medication did he realize how horrible she was making his life. She was not a good person, and I've made peace with the fact that her whole family has fallen apart around her because of her own self-centered actions.
