| Being old does not entitle one to be an evil, manipulative b<BEEP>ch, nor does it oblige the subjects of such behavior to think good thoughts about the person perpetrating such.
Through most of my life, my grandmother tried to destroy my family's life. She hired private investigators to spy on us. She tracked down and lied to our neighbors about us. She would make reports to social services and lie about how badly myself and my brother were being treated (she was living several hundred miles away, and hadn't had direct contact with us for years). We were basically living in hiding to one degree or another for most of my life because of her. She was an evil, manipulative, vile old woman. She was beaten to death a few years ago by my uncle, and I'm honestly glad she's dead. If you think that's a horrible thing to say, that's your right, but keep in mind that you didn't spend some 19 years having to grow up with that.
TWC, I feel for you. Having to deal with horrible, manipulative relatives sucks in a way few other things can. |
