[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get it. We moved closer to my parents. There were a million boundaries which was fine with us. They basically just wanted to see grandkids without much babysitting and not have us interfere with their extensive social life and travel. Basically they were not a support, which is fine. However, fast forward to aging and for the past 8 years the boundaries have eroded and the entitlement and demands have gone up exponentially. After enough emergencies and scapegoating ever increasing demands on my time without respect for the fact I have a family of my own and job, we are considering moving elsewhere in the next few years. At this point I get tantrums if I say not something and after enough therapy I realize I given everything I can and I need some distance.

Sometimes family can suck. I am sorry OP and I am sorry to make it about me and to vent.[/quote]

I just posted, but to answer why are you angry?...Because you had expectations that weren't met. You have to now accept reality and figure out what you want for your own life. You also need to lower your expectations. I too have learned to face reality that nothing I do is enough and it will not be appreciated and decide how I want to move forward.[/quote]
