“It’s during the worst times of your life that you will get to see the true colors of the people who say they care for you.” -Ritu Ghatourey
For example, when leaving a raging alcoholic, my parents told me they no longer had room for me at their home (which included room for my 1.5-year old son). They also had my ex over for dinner and allowed him to visit constantly. After being forced to sever my relationship with my parents, they then blamed me for everything, saying, “we need to see our grandson.” Had they not supported the abusive alcoholic in the first place, I wouldn’t have questioned their sanity.
Don’t hold on to toxic people in your life simply because they hold a position of power. It’s just not worth it.
