[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s time to divorce your parents and older sis. Just stop all contact. My BFF did this and, with lots of therapeutic support, she’s living her happiest life.[/quote]

Terrible advice. This is advice from someone completely broken inside. No way your "BFF" is living her happiest life. Her happiest life would be coming to terms with her parents. Cutting them off is quitting. OP has not said anything that implies cutting off her family would be sensible. It's crazy advice.

This is why I would never take advice from DCUM. Lots of damaged people trying to get others to follow the same sad route they did.[/quote]

You're delusional. Op's parents don't sound like healthy people and taking a break from people who don't respect you can improve things. I experienced something similar with a relative and the break was necessary for that family member to realize that putting up with their insults, rudeness and entitled behavior was not going to work anymore. We eventually did things as a family again and taking that break and establishing boundaries helped. Your assumption that people who stand up to abuse are actually less happy is just crazy.  How do you know what would make someone else's life "happiest"? This, in and of itself, shows you are overbearing and do not understand boundaries. [b]Let me guess, are you super religious?[/b][/quote]

Cool your jets. I was responding to the post above. See, this is the problem with damaged people -- everything is about THEM. My response is not about you. I was responding to another post.

Again, this is why I would never take advice from DCUM. Bunch of kooks who can't see beyond their own noses.[/quote]

PP again. And LOL to the bolded. Good grief, what a strange assumption.[/quote]
