Growing up my family was dysfunctional due to siblings being spoiled and allowed/enabled to be irresponsible. They are now grown irresponsible adults, still demanding handouts and acting entitled even though they didn’t and couldn’t help their own children. I slowly cut the relationships off as it was destroying me and my family. I thought that I could fix things for them and was sadly letting my own family go. Now I’m the bad guy and being gossiped about because they are miserable in the lives they created for themselves. I’m back for me and my family. Best thing I ever did after seeking therapy and grief support. Just wished that I did it a long time ago. Don’t waste a precious moment of life. I see happiness now. Thank you God, praise Jesus.
Don't feel guilt - people that have your best interests at heart will be happy for you when something good happens in your life.
Best wishes.
You know you are not 'the bad guy' From their point of view you may appear so but it no longer matters what they think.
You and your family should be first, always. We had to do something similar in the past, best move we ever made.
Hugs for you and yours :)
I am lucky that no siblings have come after me for money. Just have one SIL who assumes we can afford. I hate that.
Keep sticking by your guns. I bet those crying poor have weird priorities. Like a friend of my daughter's, he bought a new bow and arrow but didn't pay his water bill. Because they can't handle their lives, doesn't mean it your responsibility. It's ur parents fault. Enjoy your life and ignore them.
