[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't ever cut yourself off from family. I would limit exposure and then call family on rude behavior when it comes up, perhaps in an offhand way, using humor when possible. Do not stoop to their level. [/quote] If someone's going to insult you any time you're around and no one is going to stand up for you, why continue to subject yourself to that? Cutting off abusive family members is so freeing. The day I realized I did not deserve to be treated like that and I was the only person willing to say so was amazing. No more name-calling, no more gas lighting, no more passive-aggressive comments. I see a few of them who aren't total assholes, and we enjoy our time together without the jackasses. Not everyone gets a family worth maintaining relationships with. I had to live with those people for 18 years, and I put my time in. No more.[/quote]
