“…She has a right to feel resentful and stuck. I have no advice on what she should do but she shouldn’t have been left with in the first place. Not sure what the grandparents were thinking.”
“You were forced to step up and be a parent at an age where the biggest concern of most people is the cute guy at school and getting their driver’s license.”
“It is okay to feel resentment and being tired of this. But you should really think about the potential future of your siblings before you give them to your mother.”
“I would try to get CPS and a Court involved so that you can at least get money from her, if she can buy a Mercedes then she can also sell this car and pay you back!”
“You were abused and you can’t take being a parent to your siblings anymore when you haven’t even been able to live your own life because of your mother. It’s not abandonment. It’s you making your mother face the consequences of her actions and taking your life back.”
