Toxic Grandma And Uncle

By thebaewatch July 20, 2020 6 answers Last updated July 20, 2020

Hello. I am an 18-year-old boy and I live with my mother, my father, my grandmother and my uncle, who is alone. I get along with my parents, thank God, they are not toxic, but grandma and uncle are just like that! They control and quarrel with me, and also with their parents, about everything - not to go out when it is cold, to always go home under an appointment agreed with them, any cough or snot is a cause for concern when someone is the patient is not left alone until he recovers, not understanding that the patient, in addition to care, needs rest and tranquility, etc. All such grandmotherly stories, to which my uncle is attached, nothing that is not from her generation ( perhaps because he has no family of his own).

My mother and father have not moved away from them and will not move, because they are among those people who prefer to endure all situations and have no peace of mind, instead of paying rent or credit. However, I cannot live under this policy regime.

 

I am even angrier that compared to most of my peers I lead a so to speak restrained life - I don't drink, I don't smoke, I eat healthily, I don't overdo it in front of the computer, I go out and walk somewhere every day or every other day, no I sit late at bars and discos because I'm not that type, but they always criticize me for not doing it the way they think I should. The problem with the export, however, is the following. The fact that I will have to start some part-time work for students to pay my own rent, food bills, etc. is one thing - it's unpleasant, but I'd rather pay than be in control of everything. But the displacement cannot change the character of my grandmother and uncle.

 

What should I do if they start to worry about me, that I'm not living properly, that being alone, it was scary if something got sick and so on. For them, the fact that I am not free means nothing to them. I am especially worried, for my grandmother, that she may raise blood and, God forbid, if something happens to her, it will weigh on my conscience, no matter how much it makes me angry. My question is what should be done at this point in situations with toxic families? Thanks in advance for the tips.

I ask the moderators to publish my story because I need advice.

If your grandmother bleeds because that's her character. You export and you don't owe anyone.

"of peace" (separately) and "history" are written!

You felt very correctly that your uncle and grandmother were toxic, as well as why your parents did not move out. You know that you are not like them and you do not have to put up with them. Read about your weaknesses on Wayne Dyer or about emotional dependence on your parents (in your case, relatives). You are responsible only for your own happiness and health, not for theirs. If they feel that you are worried about their health, only when they hear that you will be exported and they will have a heart attack. But in fact, being removed from your home is not a cause for anxiety and heart attacks, but on the contrary - a cause for happiness and pride that you have raised a young and independent man capable of taking care of himself. As a woman who has been living alone in Sofia for 8 years, I will tell you that there is nothing better in the world than to achieve everything alone and not depend on relatives. With your behavior, your grandmother and uncle make you stingy and make you feel unfit to manage on your own in life, which is not the case - when you run away, you will understand. You already feel that this is grandma's nonsense. Do not allow them to impose guilt and duty on you - you are not obliged to fulfill their wishes.

You are already 18, what have you lost. You get out of the difficult situation and build your life!

Boy, even if your uncle had a family, he would still be attached to the old lady. In normal countries, all people your age work part-time, even at the age of 16.

You have nothing to think about, you find a part-time job and move out, if you want to work more you enroll to study part-time! Fuck these poisonous people!
