I'm ok. Been dealing with this type of treatment from them my entire life. Everything is my fault regardless of whether or not it has anything directly to do with me or not.
*shrugs*
Whatever, I'm clear headed enough to see that these thing are far beyond anything I could have been at fault for.
Luckily I'm not alone in thinking they're all fucked up. Both my uncles think they're dispicable, my husband can't stand being around them. And when I DO have to endure spending time with them I end up a wound as fuck ball of anxiety and bitchiness...(hence the stiff cocktails).

Stoney - you're forgetting that this is the princess. She's lived at home for free since becoming an adult while my brother has been paying them rent since he was 18.
Oh, and now add "the first real" grandchild is here and my parents already do everything they can to help my sister.
"Oh you need to take a shower? I'll take the baby."
"Oh, you need some time alone, ok, we'll take the baby for a walk."
Yes, I feel bad for her having to go at this as a single parent, but dude, take advantage of living at home and get your shit together to be able to raise that baby!
____________________________________
M.E. I know how you feel. In my family, my brother, who is the baby and only boy is the golden child. This pos, has DONE NOTHING. He quit school in the 11th grade. Pretty much has not paid a single thing. No job. a 4 month old son, whom my mom buys alot of shit for. Pretty much called her every name in the book and went so far as to throw rocks at her car after she caught him with a girl in her home, and bitched him and her out. Buys his cigarettes. Lets him drive HER CAR.
SHE KICKED ME OUT for LESS...Which was because I told her, not to worry about what I DO WITH MY MONEY. I got kicked out. I was treated like shit the year i lived with her after my grandmother died. I'm the one that's in school. struggling, taking a fucking bus everyday, while she drives his ass to his drug addicted friends house, and helps him with EVERYTHING UNDER THE GOT DAMN SUN. He shits and walks alll over her. And I swear to you, the day I graduate, she'll be like oh wow, good job, but the day he actually passes a piss test would be like he won the nobel peace prize to her.He's never paid a dime. As a matter of fact she gave the mother of child spending money not only for the child BUT FOR HERSELF...I was like excuse me??? The grandkid sure, for her? DID YOU NOT THINK your actual child could have used that? Like you, I am her child from another man. The oldest, and even though I am weird, I am the normal rational one, finished school, in college, trying to do shit with myself. While my brother AND my sister shit all over her, and curse her out. And YET she still expects shit from me. If she takes me out to eat, I'm fucking privledged. And I know, if It would have been me, she wouldn't have done nearly as much for my kid if I had one.
It seems like the ones who ACTUALLY try to do something with themselves get shit on, CONSTANTLY. Keep your head up. You reap what you sew, and your mom better hope your sister is the one thats there for her in her golden years, if not, that bitch would be in a fucking home. No offense, but I don't buy that whole take care of your parents shit. Fuck that, you were a shitty parent, karma is a bitch.

Being a contemplative drunk myself I think I know what you mean. And from what I've gathered from your comment in an earlier open post, you have a lot to think about. Is it too late over where you live to call a friend for a nice drunk chat? At times like these, there's safety & solace in numbers.

Re Santa and other holiday sprites, I agree with the wise Precocious. But I'll add that rationalist parents who pointedly tell their kids at a young age that sprites don't exist are fun-, magic- and soul-killers.
It's sort of like telling them that life is cruel and fleeting: You can tell them, and deflate all hope; or you can let them figure it out themselves.

I scored the bills because I initiated the divorce. (Different countries, different laws.)
I think he ended up paying about $300, or something shitty like that.
So, you've got a date on the calendar to look forward to!! Yep - it's as scary as hell, but so much better than actually being married to Satan. LOL
My only advice: take things as slowly as financially possible - allow your head the opportunity to calibrate all the changes. There will be more to emotionally digest than you could ever anticipate, and the depth and breadth of those emotions demand due respect.
Baby steps... :)

I just witnessed the most amazing thing in the world!
Did you know that a cat can turn itself inside-out trying to run away from the sound of breaking glass?
I was carrying a stack of dishes and glasses to the sink, when I tripped over the end of the rug (yes, Ambien makes you shuffle your feet) and said dishes and glasses hit the tile floor and exploded into a bazillion pieces.
I do believe I saw the tip of Maggie's tail zipping out of her mouth in it's haste to clear the basement steps (7 at a time...clunk, clunk....for 14 stairs.)
Poor Maggie....now I have to get the vacuum out to clean up the glass slivers. That poor cat is going to need medication after this...(I wonder if a feline dose of Ambien would help?)

Hey Undine!!
Took 3 years to divorce mine, and I had to pay all the lawyers bills. :(
Is everything settled, now?

Not yet, but we are less than a month until we are finally signing the papers! On the 16th we go in to sign off on the spousal and child support plans, and I'm guessing we'll have to put in about 6-8 more hours of time hammering out custody details (We can only work for about 2 hrs together until we both need to go away from each other).
Then on Sept 1 we are going in to sign everything! I cannot tell you how scared and excited I am. I've been a stay-at-home mom for so many years and it's been almost a decade since I got my BA. Who the fuck knows what I'll do now, but at least I'll be free!
How'd you get stuck with all the bills? That sucks. We're doing cooperative law and splitting it 50/50.

Re: Santa debate.
I have one 7YO, almost 8. She seems like she still believes. I'm not going to tell her unless she asks, and then I won't lie.
I am with those who say your kid could be pretending they believe when actually they have figured it out. I never believed in that shit, but had fun pretending. Also, I knew that once I admitted I didn't believe anymore I would stop getting presents from Santa.
A friend on mine said her mother waited until she asked if Santa was real and her mother answered, "Do you really want to know?" To this, my friend replied, "Not really." and went on her merry way.
Funny Santa-related anecdote: My daughter was asking how Santa gets to all the houses in one night and I said, "IDK, maybe he uses a "time-turner" (time travel gadget in Harry Potter series) She replied, "No way, time-turners aren't real!" Hahahaha!

Medical billing and coding is tough and needs training and a certificate.
She would need to go to an ACCREDITED! school for that but she could work from home and I hear the money is ok!!
I.F. is right. A decade ago, I tried the medical transcription (includes billing & coding) program at a local (accredited) vo-tech two-year college...I did well in college before, yet that program kicked my ASS. Anatomy/Physiology class is tough (it has to be, since you're dealing with folks' health). Learning to transcribe doctors' notes, conversations with patients, decode their handwriting, etc. is very hard, and I quit after two quarters. I didn't have the interest (or discipline, back then) to attend two classes three days a week; would've been completely screwed had I tried an online/from-home program.
In my experience, anyway, there are few reputable/for real work-from-home programs. Like I.F., I too work as a freelance writer (commercial stuff, like helping clients develop training programs, writing white papers, brochure/web copy, presentations for big meetings, etc.). I'm just starting out and have only two clients, and I have to supplement my income with a part-time job...but overall it's pretty good.
M.E., I'm so sorry your family treats you this way. [SMH] They're lucky that you have anything to do with them at all. (They don't know that, but we do.) Question: How badly would your sister have to screw up for them to boot her?

No offense, but I don't buy that whole take care of your parents shit. Fuck that, you were a shitty parent, karma is a bitch.

Being a contemplative drunk myself I think I know what you mean. And from what I've gathered from your comment in an earlier open post, you have a lot to think about. Is it too late over where you live to call a friend for a nice drunk chat? At times like these, there's safety & solace in numbers.

But you're not alone, you've got dlisted! (And congrats on your divorce from someone who was making you unhappy.)
@Mickey--I don't mind being drunk, but drunk and ALONE is a bad combo. I should go to happy hour and be passed out by the end of the news instead of being awake in the middle of the night.
After reading her comments I have to say that M.E.'s family sucks like butter on a stick (no offense).

I prefer my people drunk, just so I know how it feels like to be the sober one for once. Tee hee.

M.E., my fingers/toes/eyes are crossed that your sister uses this opportunity to get her act together. Reading DListers' past comments, I know that having a kid can make people change their priorities very quickly and dramatically.
Hugs and encouragement to you, Mr. M.E., and the little M.E.s as well. :-)
Ok. Am officially drunk now. And awake, in the middle of the night. And nobody is around. Am now remembering why it is I do not get drunk in the middle of the night.
Dead silence everywhere. I need to find a drunk insomniac chat room. Actually, I'll settle for just an insomniac one. Ppl can deal with the drunk.

Re Santa and other holiday sprites, I agree with the wise Precocious. But I'll add that rationalist parents who pointedly tell their kids at a young age that sprites don't exist are fun-, magic- and soul-killers.
It's sort of like telling them that life is cruel and fleeting: You can tell them, and deflate all hope; or you can let them figure it out themselves.

Thank you beaker's bitch! That actually sounds delicious. I had a "coconut mojito" tonight made with malibu and it was delicious, but 8 bucks. This sounds much more affordable. I'm not even kidding when I say that I'll probably try it.
Have opened second bottle and am on the way to drunkville.

Oh everybody, why am I not drunk yet? I am getting close to the end of this bottle of wine. *sigh*
I like red. I discovered this great, new drink recipe that I will share with y'all.
1. Buy Slurpee.
2. Bring home and add Malibu rum to Slurpee.
3. Stir with your crappy spoon straw.
4. Enjoy.
YOU'RE WELCOME!
I'm trying to stay away from the bottle of whisky, but I have this whole month off from work, it'll be boring without it :|

I scored the bills because I initiated the divorce. (Different countries, different laws.)
I think he ended up paying about $300, or something shitty like that.
So, you've got a date on the calendar to look forward to!! Yep - it's as scary as hell, but so much better than actually being married to Satan. LOL
My only advice: take things as slowly as financially possible - allow your head the opportunity to calibrate all the changes. There will be more to emotionally digest than you could ever anticipate, and the depth and breadth of those emotions demand due respect.
Baby steps... :)
If you ever feel a little lost, there's always Dlisted (and the liquor store)!!

I just witnessed the most amazing thing in the world!
Did you know that a cat can turn itself inside-out trying to run away from the sound of breaking glass?
I was carrying a stack of dishes and glasses to the sink, when I tripped over the end of the rug (yes, Ambien makes you shuffle your feet) and said dishes and glasses hit the tile floor and exploded into a bazillion pieces.
I do believe I saw the tip of Maggie's tail zipping out of her mouth in it's haste to clear the basement steps (7 at a time...clunk, clunk....for 14 stairs.)
Poor Maggie....now I have to get the vacuum out to clean up the glass slivers. That poor cat is going to need medication after this...(I wonder if a feline dose of Ambien would help?)

Hey Undine!!
Took 3 years to divorce mine, and I had to pay all the lawyers bills. :(
Is everything settled, now?
----
Not yet, but we are less than a month until we are finally signing the papers! On the 16th we go in to sign off on the spousal and child support plans, and I'm guessing we'll have to put in about 6-8 more hours of time hammering out custody details (We can only work for about 2 hrs together until we both need to go away from each other).
Then on Sept 1 we are going in to sign everything! I cannot tell you how scared and excited I am. I've been a stay-at-home mom for so many years and it's been almost a decade since I got my BA. Who the fuck knows what I'll do now, but at least I'll be free!
How'd you get stuck with all the bills? That sucks. We're doing cooperative law and splitting it 50/50.
Re: Santa debate.
I have one 7YO, almost 8. She seems like she still believes. I'm not going to tell her unless she asks, and then I won't lie.
I am with those who say your kid could be pretending they believe when actually they have figured it out. I never believed in that shit, but had fun pretending. Also, I knew that once I admitted I didn't believe anymore I would stop getting presents from Santa.
A friend on mine said her mother waited until she asked if Santa was real and her mother answered, "Do you really want to know?" To this, my friend replied, "Not really." and went on her merry way.
Funny Santa-related anecdote: My daughter was asking how Santa gets to all the houses in one night and I said, "IDK, maybe he uses a "time-turner" (time travel gadget in Harry Potter series) She replied, "No way, time-turners aren't real!" Hahahaha!

What's up, sluts! I am staring at a bottle of wine in an ice bath counting down the minutes until it's chilled and I can drink it. 2 hrs of negotiating custody details with my ex=the opposite of fun.
Can people learn to close their italics?
Or just don't use the fuckers in the first place.

I need some advice. My 9-yr-old still believes in the tooth fairy, Santa, etc. Should I tell her the truth, or let her find out "on the streets"?
-----------------------------------------------
I have told, and still tell my boys, "If you believe in him, he is real." Or some shit like that. My 13 yr old def knows the truth, but my 7.5 yr old still believes in the magic, so I'm not going to slap him with reality just yet. Also, I swear to gawd I saw Santa for real when I was about 10.

It's always possible she's pretending she still believes, because she thinks you want her to. If you go to a lot of trouble to maintain the fantasy, she may have decided it's important to *you* that she "believe". :^)

Just wanted to leave a message for Atomic City - I was thinking about you today with your tests and hope that all goes well. If you get a chance (and feel up to it), please check in and give us an update.

NO CHOCOLATE ON THE DEEP-FRIED BUTTER? What a bunch of pussies.
And kadooze to ME, Guest, SDR and Roxie - living with self-centered family members ain't easy. What I've found through experience though, is that people who've lived with (or are still living with) rotten family members are the coolest people to be around because they've seen and survived the dark-side. I hope you've all found people who appreciate you.

Oh I don't want her kicked out! I want her to use this opportunity to DO SOMETHING that will benefit her life and make it EASIER on her to raise her newborn.
Say mom and day actually DO give her a time frame, she could use it to get through school to have a good paying job and be able to afford to get an apartment for her and the baby.
We'll see what direction this takes.
Thank you for your input.

_M.E.
Medical billing and coding is tough and needs training and a certificate.
She would need to go to an ACCREDITED! school for that but she could work from home and I hear the money is ok!!
I.F. is right. A decade ago, I tried the medical transcription (includes billing & coding) program at a local (accredited) vo-tech two-year college...I did well in college before, yet that program kicked my ASS. Anatomy/Physiology class is tough (it has to be, since you're dealing with folks' health). Learning to transcribe doctors' notes, conversations with patients, decode their handwriting, etc. is very hard, and I quit after two quarters. I didn't have the interest (or discipline, back then) to attend two classes three days a week; would've been completely screwed had I tried an online/from-home program.
In my experience, anyway, there are few reputable/for real work-from-home programs. Like I.F., I too work as a freelance writer (commercial stuff, like helping clients develop training programs, writing white papers, brochure/web copy, presentations for big meetings, etc.). I'm just starting out and have only two clients, and I have to supplement my income with a part-time job...but overall it's pretty good.
M.E., I'm so sorry your family treats you this way. [SMH] They're lucky that you have anything to do with them at all. (They don't know that, but we do.) Question: How badly would your sister have to screw up for them to boot her?
ETA: I agree with Evil_Cupcake: That's some disown-type shit right there.
Migraine - I KNOW! WTF? And this is MY MOTHER! LOL.

You don't exactly have to tell them to stop calling them grandma, granddad, but you COULD tell them that it's ok to call them *insert Mr. and Mrs. M.E.'s parents last name* and I'm sure they would have a grand old time calling them that on the next visit.
