Family feuding

6 replies

Presently, in situation with family feuding on both sides of family having just learnt after 9 years no contact that my sister has been driving the dynamics in family, resulting in 2 family breakdowns. In the meantime, whilst trying to keep ourselves to ourselves, family are stirring up trouble in the background, whilst coercively involving our girls. Not sure what I can do, have been through so much toxicity, feel like collateral damage.. Boundaries placed but rarely respected.

Sounds harsh but just stay well away and keep you and your children well away from it all

@taylor19taylor OP I go through the same thing with my family, my sister seems to be the one always causing the trouble. Since I've had my DD I don't want her around all the toxic behaviour so I've pulled myself away from it! No contact whatsoever & It was the best thing I've ever done. I feel much happier mentally and physically! Only you can decide on what's right for you and your family :)

Thankyou for your advice, just keeping our heads down, only to learn that the grandmothers, who have fuelled the situation are colluding with the family in the meantime.

@taylor19taylor OP just steer clear, the only advise I can give! I'm only 25 and I'm always wondering what I did so wrong to deserve all the hatred :/ my mother is beyond evil. It just drags us down and we're strong independent women!

Flowers to you OP - stay strong and try and stay out of it. Easier said than done Sad

Learning day by day of new facts, it appears born into families of habitual abuse and driven on the back of another's deceptive motives. Sounds bitter but meant to expose the truth.

Thankyou again for continued support
