Why is it, that the people who try telling you to cut the toxic people out, are the very toxic people in your life? My family is a joke y’all. Idk what a “family” even is.

Because in their minds they aren't the toxic ones. I cut so many out of my life and have loved it since.
Family is of the heart, not blood. Most of my family isn't even blood but have been there threw the toughest and darkest times in my life. Cut all toxic people out by following your intuition.

@cak1985, I have, I started with my dad, and now I’ve seemed to pretty much cut everyone out except my grandma and grandpa. My mom texted me today, and asked to take the kids Monday, and my grandma is upset that I won’t let her. But I just can’t justify letting her, when she literally never wants to see them unless it’s convenient for her. I had surgery, and couldn’t have them for 2 weeks, and my mom didn’t want to help she was “busy” and so was her husband that had gotten fired the day of my surgery so he wasn’t working and could have helped. Even on the weekends she was to busy going out though she was just complaining about the money lost from him being fired. I just refuse to let her continue to be a part time in my children’s life. They don’t deserve it.

Good. Your kids and you definitely deserve better than someone who does things for their convenience. I can never understand how someone doesn't want to see their grandkids. That's why I cut a lot of so called family and even so called friends. My circle is very small but I'm happy with it.

@cak1985, I agree! It may seem petty to some, but as a kid, my grandparents had me and my brother EVERY weekend. My family rarely sees my kids. That’s not family to me. And since she wanted to tell my grandma it’s not her responsibility to help with my kids and I need to raise them, that’s exactly what I’m gonna do. 🤷🏼♀️

Definitely not petty. That isn't family. Some of the family I still talk yo can't see my son on regular bases but of course that's because they live close to a 1000 miles away. Buy they make the effort to ask about him and send him things when they can. Others could careless and that's fine with me. You're going to do awesome raising them that they'll be fine without the toxic people. You're already doing great by cutting out all toxic people.
