A family is supposed to provide MORE than food or clothes on your back, while growing up..... that's the bare MINIMUM! If there's no empathy or sympathy- if they don't think about your feelings EVER, if they say something unhelpful or sarcastic, or get angry at you when you're upset- as opposed to providing COMFORT or sensitivity....... then its not much of a family.
People don't have anger issues or turn to drugs or alcohol because they didn't have enough material things, its because their EMOTIONAL needs weren't met!
The only times they think of me are when its a negative thought- like when they wanna blame me for something, or have the audacity to say I didn't do something that I know I did do. Other than that, I'm an afterthought....
And let's not forget, the time, my so-called grandmother told me my hair was a "wreck", never mind, the FACT that she & no one else in my "family" ever bothered to notice that I've been a freakin nervous wreck for DECADES!
