Might be a long one..
A year ago my sister looked after my house and dog for me while I was on holiday for which I paid her. While I was away she let her two adult sons, a girlfriend and some friends visit or stop over. As soon as I got back she told me that one of my nephews had been going through my stuff. I discovered that jewellery, money and a couple of other things had been stolen. It was clear that every drawer, box, cupboard has been thoroughly searched. I felt like I had been burgled by my family.
No one would admit they took anything and over the next couple of days they became defensive and nasty. To be fair sis apologised at time but no one admitted to being responsible. As a result I have gone NC with all of them.
During the last year we have had seperate Xmas and I got married and couldn’t invite them because I am still angry and hurt.
Both of my nephews were arrested recently for something else and are both in prison. For background my sis is bi-polar, I’m not sure if one of her symptoms is really-writing the truth..and the kids have had a shit start in life. I don’t think this is an excuse though.
My sister has contacted me in last few days to build bridges I guess however she thinks me going NC was an over reaction and i shouldn’t blame her for her kids actions. I feel she is minimising how I feel, this has had a big impact on the whole family. I don’t know how to move on from this.
