Does anyone want to talk

[ArraDreaming]

Yeah and you know my brain is full already with all of the things I have to do to care for my own family, just got a new job, all that kind of thing… sometimes I just don’t want to get involved with what my siblings bring, this is constant, there is forever an issue with one of them at least always, I wonder how they manage to function in this world sometimes and more often then not I actually don’t want to know… I refuse to interact with 90% of my siblings for this very reason, my sister is the only one I have time for, but sometimes I just think please figure it out because I can’t fix this for you @RiverSeal

[ArraDreaming]

I’m just tired, I hate to say because I care for them both but I kind of want someone else to help this time, @RiverSeal it’s always me I have enough on my plate,we have 2 kids and a baby of our own we cant always be there

[RiverSeal]

You are a very caring parent, sibling and partner @ArraDreaming and I can hear that you have so much love for your family. We aren't responsible for other people though and they have to make their own choices in life. Respecting that choice is as much as caring about them and giving them space to be who they are. It's also ok to have boundaries with family members and how we interact with them and that takes strength with you are demonstrating. I'll be around tomorrow and have a good night! RiverSeal

before today hadn’t seen her in months
our contact is limited for this reason @RiverSeal

[ArraDreaming]

But it doesn’t make it any easier when you know things are fucked up

[ArraDreaming]

you know what @RiverSeal I thought about this when I was mowing this morning, deep thinking time

I think I’m scared because I know how it starts and how it ends, Im worried she’s going up like my mum, maybe Im not giving her enough credit? I don’t know but I get scared because I have seen it
I don’t know if she has that drive to be better, YET.
I get worried that she is going to like mum.

[RiverSeal]

Do you think you are thinking like that because that's a story you know and it's familiar @ArraDreaming? Your sister is her own person, and she will have her own story and when she is ready or if she is ready to change, she will in her own way. Do you think that she wants to be different than what she is now? RiverSeal 

[ArraDreaming]

I’m not sure @RiverSeal

[ArraDreaming]

if my kids got taken away from me how would that work?
I know how it works as a kid but like if they knocked on my door and wanted to take kids off us would they leave our oldest child because he’s not related to me and take the younger 2 or would they leave them with their mum or would they all get taken from both of us

[ArraDreaming]

would they at least keep them together cause like on the times there was heaps of us we didn’t stay together
