Dear Peace:

“No matter what I do, they think I’m bad. It’s like I’m always in the wrong… Neither of them said sorry, even when they hurt me. They acted like nothing happened. They thought it was normal to treat me, my husband, and his family badly. They expected me to still treat them well… No matter what you do, you’ll be criticized, judged, or called names…And it’s not just me; it’s the same for everyone, including other family member“-

– Family is supposed to support, encourage and help family. Family does not have the right to mistreat and abuse family, not any more than strangers have such a right. Their behaviors are Wrong. Can you cut ties with all abusive family members? I mean, wouldn’t you be better off without them in your life?
