And I won't stand for it.

And I won't stand for it.

Thank you so much. It's true. I am the eldest of nine, and we were abandoned by our mother, so I have filled in that role as mother to my siblings. My grandmother raised us, but she worked the entire time, so... The relationship I have with my siblings is more of one of a mother-child. And now that I have my own child, I find myself feeling obligated.

It's just what I'm trying to avoid is I always feel obligated to assist them in a lot of their issues that they're dealing with. And recently, I wasn't able to show up for one of my closest siblings, my little sister, who she's like my daughter, and I just wasn't able to show up for her. And the treatment that I got from her kind of just left me shocked and kind of heartbroken.

Yeah, we're not talking about little. We're talking about grown women with their own children.

She's a grown woman, and I had a role. You know, all my mother's children have lived with me, and it's like, but now it's like everybody's already had their chances. Everybody's got to stand up. So I told her no, and she just kind of stopped talking to me, and it just devastated me and made me angry, and I'm never angry with them.
