[quote=Anonymous]Wanted to add it becomes battle of the gaslights. Usually the one who lives closest notices when say the other parent who sees the person daily goes into denial. The siblings who don't live in the area benefit from joining the denial because they stay the favorites. So, the whole family gaslights you to the point you doubt reality. Then you try to be rational and explain all the concerning things and they assume you are gaslighting since even the spouse says everything is fine. I know one family where this went on until the parent got into an accident. in our case it just made my life hell and I was the "bad child."[/quote]
