[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those who advise family estrangement are really foolish. It's constant on this site. Unless there is active abuse don't do it. Families are problematic but they are also your support system. [/quote]

[b]You are an enabler of emotional abuse. Glad I don’t know you.[/b] [/quote]

Probably a perpetrator of emotional abuse who finds it difficult to read about their own behavior online and see that healthy people describe it as "toxic".

OP, your parents are not your family. Your husband and children are your family. Just do whatever you need to do to rid them from your life. Based on what you've described you get nothing good out of the relationship. They need you for their sickness. Don't let them.[/quote]

These parents are her "support system"? No. I'm not even sure these parents need the OP for their sickness. Maybe, but they really sound more interested in ending the relationship than maintaining it. They want to end it with maximum pain to the OP only because that's more entertaining for them than a more compassionate approach.

Sorry, OP, I know this hurts. You don't deserve this, but this is the hand you've been dealt. Time to decide not to play their game any more. You don't need to communicate your decision to your parents or any one else in your family of origin. Just step away, and focus on healing and living your best life.[/quote]
