RE: When family is NOT family

in #family7 years ago

Families are never as simple as we'd like them to be, and just because someone is related to you doesn't mean they're worth your respect or your love. (I've got so many stepparents and half-siblings that I just tell people my family tree is more like a shrub.)

I'm sorry you had to go through this bad experience, but it sounds like you're handling it in the healthiest way possible.
