    When I was in foster care (because of my egg donor) the shrink told me “You don’t have to talk to people or have them in your life because they’re related to you” …this was in the 1980’s, so very progressive thinking at the time & probably a big no-no for her to say to me. She had met my egg donor so I figured she knew what she was talking about. I haven’t spoken to my EG in 30+yrs & never regretted it. Family is the one you make with friends & other loved ones & you all have a family out there waiting for you❤ So if your relatives suck, drop them, for your own mental health & make your family 😊

      I can totally relate to this! One of my older sisters and I had a rough time getting along. My mom (not hers but we share the same dad) knew about these issues and told me to ask myself "If she wasn't my sister, would I be friends with her?". That put things into perspective. When I finally cut my toxic sister out of my life, it was an instant relief and I had wished I did it sooner.

    I no longer speak to my dad because he never paid what he was supposed to for child support, and bitched about having to pay at all. He would also always talk shit about my mom who was and still is amazing. I survived brain cancer at 15 and missed a year of school. After I went back, I also did online courses in order to catch up. Through hard work I was able to graduate on time. After my graduation ceremony he told me he was proud of me. I learned later from his at-the-time girlfriend, who was like a second mother to me, that he was surprised I graduated. Not that I graduated on time in spite of the setbacks I faced. But surprised that I graduated high school at all. And this coming from a guy who dropped out at 16. Then, when I was finally ready for university, I ask for financial assistance and sent him a copy of my acceptance letter. Which he then accused me of forging. Not only did I get in, but I managed to graduate with honors and get my undergraduate degree in psychology.

    I stopped talking to my “father” when he showed no emotion at all when I finally came out to him about csa. He just sat there, then said “Oh well don’t let it ruin you.”
    It broke me. It honestly hurt so much worse because when my little sister came out about her csa, he dropped everything and drove to another state to be with her. And although I’m grateful though he showed her actual comfort and support, it just hurt so much knowing that he would never do the same with me.
    I haven’t spoken to him since last May, and it’ll be nearly a full year since I cut him out of my life. I’ve been so much happier and feel better. Even remembered some old stuff that helps me feel better about cutting him out. But yeah, that was the final straw.

    My mother had already been a terrible person for a long time and we already had one big and several small falling outs before, but she always tried to reconnect with me, playing the nice mom. Though i long know by this point that it was never because she loved me, but rather because, like every man in her life, she could conveniently use me for her own benefit.
    heck, i once visited her for a weekend after not seeing her for months, and within 10 minutes she tried to convince me to help her move several dozen boxes out of her old apartment. No "how are you?", "might you help me?", or "i could do it myself, but you would be a great help". Just, a "we moved, we are planning to get our stuff today, come with".
    But the biggest falling out was when we were already strained with each other and hadnt spoken for a while. She invited me into a theme park, and i only agreed because i couldnt afford anything like that myself (i later found out she couldnt either, but thats a different story) and because i wanted to spend time with my half siblings.
    I thought at first that that was awfully nice of her, but it turns out, like always, she just wanted to use me, only paying me this time in a way. Because, while i liked hanging out with my young half siblings, she made it subtly a point that it was my job to take care of them while we were there, just so she could relax a bit.
    All over this time i noticed that my younger sister, at 12 years old, had a lot of money, while my younger brother had barely anything, which is caused by another terrible personality trait of my mothers, but thats again another story. However, even with me lending my brother a little bit, he still had barely anything.
    Which came to ahead, when my younger brother wanted to play a little water pistol game, but didnt have the money, and finally broke down crying. I tried to calm him down, but i am not really good at that kind of thing, so i instead tried to impart a life lesson onto him, which i hoped might help him in the future.
    Now, i didnt notice myself, but it seems i got louder in order to get through to my little brother, which might have made some people in the vicinity look at us funny. But this was apparently too much for my mother, who, like a little kid, turned and walked away, with no word to me, her daughter, or her crying son spoken, since the moment he started crying. Her reason? She felt embarrassed by all the people looking at us.
    This made me really, really angry, and i decided i have no desire to entertain this vile humans desires for relaxation anymore. So i didnt follow them and spent an hour alone in the park. To which she reacted like i was 12, and tried to scold, back then 23 year old, me for disappearing on her.
    That was the final nail in the coffin, i left the park, got a taxi and drove to our hotel with the intent to leave then and there. To which she tried to scold me again when i arrived, and tried to physically stop me from leaving the hotel room, after i packed my stuff, for almost 10 minutes, all the while telling me how much of an unreasonable child i still was, that i never grew up, etc.
    The worst part? the 10 minutes actually made the difference that i missed a bus, which made me then miss the last train to my hometown, meaning i either spent 7 hours freezing in a train station or went back to the hotel room. Now, i am sad that i had to, but i feel no shame using a terrible human being to ensure i didnt freeze the whole night and might possibly be robbed, so i went back, but made no attempt to interact with her, slept through the night and fthe next morning alone.
    Since then i dont talk to her anymore, except when i need legal documents from her. Which is also a funny little story, as, to me reminding her of her legal duty to provide the documents, she reacted by saying "i dont deal with blackmailers".
    The only two wins i got out of this are that it seems my life lesson actually got through to my little brother and he is doing better, or at least as good as possible in that terrible womans house. And that i forgot my towel in the hotel room, and upon going back to retrieve it, my mother got all teary eyed saying "ii knew youd come back", to which i replied "no, i just want my towel".

    My mother was a violent alcoholic, and when I was 8 she told me she’d stood over me while I slept for about 5 hours with a gun, nerving herself up to shooting me in the head and then shooting herself. That was the last time I slept soundly for over 30 years. I had to live with her another 8 years until I was 16, and was constantly terrified to sleep after one of her screaming fits, which happened 2-3 times every week. She finally gave up drinking after a doctor told her she’d die if she drank anymore. I was in my 40’s at the time. Her behavior did improve, but I warned my wife she could and would turn on us in a blink. I was unfortunately correct, and she tried getting verbally abusive with my wife, which I will never tolerate. So I cut her off about 5-6 years ago. We’ll not speak again.

    I don't speak to all three of my parents for a myriad of reasons. They were a polycule and I was abused in every single way you possibly could be. One is in federal prison but due to lack of evidence and "plausible deniability" my other two are still free. God knows what they're doing to my niece but there's not a whole hell of a lot I can do. I'm disabled and live with my fiance now, many states away. A lot of my disability comes from them and a bad hand of genetics. I've been like that it turns out my whole life and was expected to just keep throwing myself at everything. I've had a heart issue since I was a kid that went untreated because they labeled me a hypochondriac. On top of that they had me doing tons of athletic stuff and I had to be a top grade student. I was, I graduated early, I did all the things, I had tons of medals and trophies and plaques. Now I'm burnt out, on tons of medication to regulate a ton of stuff in my life but I live with someone who loves me and a cat who now lives in a better home. I still am haunted at times by the fact that many of the things I faced as a child are out on the internet, but weirdly thanks to the department of homeland security those things are used to track predators. It does make me feel better in a way. The Blood of the Covenant is Thicker than the Water of the Womb, it's true. The relationships you forge out in life are the most important. Some people are just luckier at making those relationships with their family.

    My father threatened me physically a few times growing up, but he wasn’t violent like my mother was. I made the hard decision to move in with him when I was 16, as I couldn’t take my mother’s abuse anymore. She’d had a fit and destroyed the first love token (balloon on a stick) a girl had ever given me, and I just couldn’t tolerate her hitting me in the face all the time. While I no longer was struck in the face several times a week, my father had no liking or respect for me. He stated that outright. He kicked me out 3 days after my 18th birthday, and I spent months living on the streets and starving. There were a LOT of incidents where he was a total AH to me, but there wasn’t really a huge blowup that resulted in us not speaking. I realized one day that I hadn’t called him in awhile, and hadn’t heard from him either. I kept not calling, and he did the same. We didn’t speak the last 10 years or so of his life.

    My mother physically, psychologically, and chemically tortured me from the time I was a baby. Electricity, macrodosing, waterboarding, suffocation, beating, I could go on. She'd set up months-long plans where I'd get fun, meet people, build relationships, and then she'd organize things such that everyone would hate me and I'd blame myself. She'd always be there to catch me on the downside, of course. If I told anyone what was happening? She'd put me in a mental hospital. Sometimes the stories were unbelievable, so I understand why they took her side. She once painted an ENTIRE abandoned (rusty) playground with silver paint specifically so she could break my legs. It didn't work, but I was pretty badly hurt. Naturally, I visited the mental hospital not long after. At my fourth hospital stay, I bonded with a patient who was suffering from the same parental behavior. He used a towel on his neck. Starting in 2018, she cancelled my disability, made me lose $132,000, and then cut off my food. I ate 1 potato every 2-3 days for 41 days. In 2021 she spread the rumor I was a neonazi scam artist, then killed my cat.

She spent my whole life telling me I'm too fat to have a man, too ugly, too whatever she felt at that moment. I had two bad relationships prior to him, abuse and cheating. She told me I deserved those men and the hurt. But my husband who has always treated me well and is a good dad, she blocked me out of jealously. This time when she wanted to talk again, I blocked her. My life was so peaceful without her in it telling me how much I suck.

I told her to shut up and mind her own business. She lost it and told me to go kill myself for real this time. If I don't kill myself she will kill me herself. Everyone was shocked she said those things. My husband was completely livid and spoke to her himself. Stating she will never see any of us ever again. Nothing that happened to me had anything to do with her. She literally inserted herself just to kick me while I was down. I almost killed myself that day. My husband called me and calmed me down. ( I was in an airport traveling to see my husband so I wasn't alone.) I am still trying to recover from what caused me to first try, and now I'm struggling with cutting off my family. I haven't spoken to her in almost a year. My grandma told me, she said "well she shouldn't have told me to shut up. She knows how I am." Shrugged it off like I was being dramatic. I haven't been to anything family related. My grandma comes and visits and my cousin and I are still close. They are the only people I have on that side of my family.

    No matter how small the argument. One day I got sick of it and told her off about it, told her this is why she has no friends and if she kept this up she wouldn’t always have me to push around either.
    She then doubled down and said she hoped I died before her. In a gutter because I was unstable , always would be and having a mental breakdown because I wasn’t taking my meds (I wasn’t and I hadn’t needed medication to regulate my emotions for over a year at that point but the fact that she would try to gaslight me like that was ridiculous).
    I then told her I was done, that she would never meet her grand kids and it was all her fault. Never looked back after that and I’m much happier now.
    Also this all started because she came over to my place to pick up something she had left at mine from dinner a week ago. She had a key to my place for emergencies and let her self in and slammed my door. Hard. And knocked some mail over. I asked her not to slam my door and that’s how we got to her telling me to die in a gutter.

    My mother lied to me for nearly 30 years, despite everyone aside from me, my brother and my father knowing my brother was not child of my dad, she would regularly berate my dad, calling him a deadbeat for not being in our lives as he lived 4 states away. This made me be treated differently as my stepfather was jealous of my dad. My mother not only showed favoritism to my brother and sister by doing things like supporting them well into adulthood, while I was kicked out at 18, but sent the judge a letter when my own wife divorced me claiming i am a deadbeat.

    I was put up for adoption and the trauma i had was so bad i forgot what happened untill 3 weeks ago. Along with some other factors i haven't spoke to my adopted family or birth family for 8 years.
    I was given un countable excuses on my i was given up by both families.
    This one is my favorite
    Older bio sis : i was going to adopt you but your parents seened like good people.
    In reality she wanted my other sister
    Adopted parents: your records are in the salt mines so you wont be able to get them.
    All of that was lies because i got it all what happened to me .
    That is why i dont talk to family

    Both my parents have been married before they had gotten together, and the only reason they did get married was because my mom was pregnant with me, and I found out later that my dad was trying to force a miscarriage; throughout my life I had always felt like the other child that neither of them really wanted. BTW, I was conceived when my parents were drinking because my mother had gotten divorced even though she was still in deeply in love with her ex, and my dad liked to party. I also have 11 siblings, most of which are on my dad's side of the family

    I quit talking to my mom at 25. It was a constant battle to talk to her on the phone and every time I called I could hear her in the background tell my siblings that she couldnt come to the phone because of x,y,z reasons. The last two times I called, both for fairly honest reasons, I would apologize profusely for calling. Then it just hit me, why the hell am I apologizing for calling my own damn mother? So I gave her what she wanted and cut all ties.

    I talk to my dad almost daily but was forced to cut all one on one contact with my mother in 2019. Ever since I was a child my mother would argue with me over everything especially if she knew I was right. This would get worse as I got older to the point that my friends would make a point of having me over to their house for the entire weekend or whenever we had days off. Eventually when I started dating and I’d introduce girls I was serious with to my parents my mother would inevitably start a huge argument and try to one up me in front of my girlfriend while in the car. I was engaged twice and both of my ex fiancees told me this was something that was a major contributing factor in their breaking off the engagement or leaving me. I don’t mean that my mother would do this like once or twice a relationship, it was every single time my girlfriend was with me around my parents. Eventually had to just put an end to it.
    I see my mom when she visits with my dad but I refuse to call or visit her.

    dude this fucked me up, I have a speech impediment, they are hard, I have a lisp, it's not because I don't read or anything I have a natural gabe between my teeth, and a large tongue because I never shut up, so everytime I use and s I basically whistle, I went to a shitty school with shit teachers who told me that it was annoying and to stop doing it, so I started using a "the" instead of a "s" I'm almost 16 now and I still struggle around people with my speech impediment because not only is it hard to use an s but I avoid it because I don't wanna piss everyone off because I'm practically always whisteling. I hope they are all doing well, including the mum she may not really be a mother but she doesn't deserve the worst, she just never grew up and I think not having her kid in her life is enough.

    My dad and I don’t have the best relationship. I was emotionally and verbally abused by him and my stepmom. I forgave her for everything but with my dad, I’m still not quite sure if I want to. I know he’s my dad and everything, but what I went through living with him, it’s a very tough call. When my little sister unexpectedly passed away last year, it was the first time I had ever seen him since 2009. But I approached him at her service and for the first time in years I hugged him. He’s definitely aged quite a bit, and I can still smell the cigarette smoke on him. It’s so strange to see him after all the time that’s passed, but I still don’t think I can forgive him for the past. My stepmom and I do speak, but she’s always busy and my stepsisters and I do speak now and then.
