If your mom threw you out like trash and picked a man over you and your siblings, would you ever want to forgive her or allow her to move back into your family home?
This 20-year-old girl has a 41-year-old mom who got divorced five years ago after her stepdad caught her texting a guy. It was one ugly split, and her stepdad disappeared that night, and they didn’t see him for a couple of months.
After he managed to heal from his grief, he popped back up to take care of her and her siblings. While her stepdad is not her biological dad, she considers him to be her real dad since he has been in her life since she was an infant. Her biological dad is not in the picture.
“So he is my dad. This is relevant because I feel some people might think I don’t have a close relationship with him, but I do. He’s the best, and I love him. He treats me like his own,” she explained.
“After that, she [my mom] left and moved in with said guy and has left us four siblings at home without any parental supervision, and has been like that since.”
“She was really horrible to us kids since she moved in with the guy and treated us like we were a burden, sometimes acting like we didn’t exist while she played ‘mommy’ to his younger kids.”
She had to jump in to care for her younger siblings along with her oldest sibling, and when her mom walked out on all of them, she said they would understand her decision when they got older.
To this day, she still cannot grasp why her mom would ditch her kids for a guy. Her mom occasionally saw them to get some things from the house, only to vanish all over again.
Several months ago, she got into an enormous fight with her mom after she broke up with her boyfriend and he kicked her out of the house for the millionth time.

Her mom tried to guilt her and her siblings into saying they all need her in their lives now, but she told her mom off. Her mom then said some horrible things about her and her siblings that a parent should never say out loud.
Her mom went to stay with her grandparents, who told her to block her mom. Next, her mom got back together with her boyfriend, and her older sibling took her mom to court to get custody of their youngest siblings.
Her mom forked over custody and gave their family house to her oldest sibling, too.
“Now, she and the guy broke up and are apparently done for good as he’s thrown out all of her things, she got a new number and called my older sibling asking if she could have her room back in the house, and she would ‘never leave us again,'” she added.
“We’ve already turned her room into the youngest’s, and she likes her space. Obviously, we told her no. This is when she started playing the victim card and tried turning it around on us, saying that we are mean and she’s ‘done everything for us kids’ and that ‘our dad turned us against her.'”
“We told her our dad doesn’t even talk about her anymore unless we bring her up, and then she started getting mad, saying we are ‘ungrateful brats’ AGAIN, and that we should be thanking her for even giving us the house and not throwing us out like she wanted.”
Her mom demanded that they allow her to move back in, and even threatening to call the cops on her hasn’t made her give up.
They have changed the locks on the house to prevent her mom from coming back, and she’s hoping it doesn’t come down to involving the authorities.
Wow, her mom is horrible! She was smart to change the locks, and hopefully, her mom will leave them alone or get back together with her boyfriend, which seems likely.
If her mom does show up, she should waste no time dialing 911.
What advice do you have for her?
