Long story short I am picking up the slack for her. I am (23)F. I accepted the position of being a guardian for my disabled sister that my mom basically abandoned. Our relationship always been estranged but was nonexistent when I took her to court about my sister. My mom did a lot of awful things. My other family wasn’t really there to help because you know the stigma of being open about abuse in families. I was isolated, and tormented for all my childhood even in foster care they made us see her. She made every effort to let me know she wanted me to suffer. I can go on and on but that’s a really long story. I go to therapy and I am sick of hearing “People can change, shes still your mother”. No, I may be young but I stand firm I just hate her. I do, you all just do not know the extensive damage she did to me and my siblings. I have CPTSD from all this. I relive these moments. I chose the responsibility of looking after my sister because we were in the system and I feared someone else taking advantage of her. I thought my mother would see the light, I thought she would have a sense of clarity with her destructive behavior. But nope never going to happen. I accepted I will never have the parents to see my milestones and honestly I can care less if she wants to be around of that. I am still attending college throughout all this. I feel like I am lamenting my 20s. I have no children, never married now my life is altered. I love my sister to death but I should have never had to do this because of OUR MOTHER. I hate her, I do not want a life with her. After the whole guardianship situation I am done.
