I learned the hard way, like you, that blood relatives do not automatically get a free pass. In fact, I’d say that blood relatives need to be held to higher standards.

My mom was complicit; she witnessed some of the physical abuses my brother put me through, and she and my dad chalked it up to “boys will be boys”.

I will breathe a little easier the day she moves on from this world.
