You sound like a shitty son/daughter who is projecting.

And frankly not surprised by the responses from the spoiled brats that tend to reside F!S

I've always wondered how one can be an ungrateful spoiled brat when it's parents who made the selfish decision to bring their kids into the world because they wanted children. How do their children owe them for a favor they did themselves?

Children are not "a favour" parents do themselves, wanted or not they are often damned difficult and stressful to bring up and often cause a lot of misery and heartache that are absolutely NOT allowed to be acknowledged, because, hey, they had them on purpose so anything that goes wrong is 100% the parents' (actually, pretty much always the MOTHER'S) fault, according to everyone here. When all the evidence is that peer conditions for teens and ups is just as important.

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.

Hear that, F!S? Survivors of abuse are "spoiled brats" now! Thank you so much, anon, for that life-changing revelation!

You two sound pretty immature and naive. Worse, you sound like those people who will use the "they're faaamily" excuse.
"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

My mother said she wished I'd been abducted by aliens, made me believe - as an athlete - that I was fat (and it was my own fault), chucked my stereo speaker into the hallway when she caught me cutting, blamed me for my depression (which I only got help for because of the cutting), threw me out of the house for having gay erotica, briefly took me back only to pester me about when I was going to move out again, refused to house my partner and I when our living situation went to shit, then threw everything of mine out that I'd left at home when I moved across the country without asking me what I was planning on keeping, and promptly blamed me for her actions and refused to take responsibility for her mistake. I've not heard from her in about three years now, and frankly, I'm glad.

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.
