Is Family Really Overrated ? True Life Story by Denvacandy: 4:23pm On Dec 18, 2021
I was born into the family of 8, 4 boys and 4 girls.

The other 4 was for different father and almost everyday i regret belonging into that kind of family, Tho i really love my mum for her care.

I really don't think family is worth dying for as 3 of my siblings are in europe london, and they have refused to uplift any of us here in nigeria, we act like strangers and its been ages we talk, they dont care about our well being and i assure you, they are really doing well, with the properties they have bought in nigeria, but not and single 5k they cant give you in 2 years.

nobody is even asking them for money, becoz we are all doing fine, but imagine they shut all doors against thier own and , they keep helping outsiders.

I believe this is like a curse or something

No, don't ever get it twisted. Family is like everything.
I can't count how many times my family came through for me at the lowest ebbs of my life. When people i called friends treated me like shit. angry
That is why i don't joke with my family. I can crush anyone that mess with them. angry

@OP I can relate with your experience, the fault lies with your parents.
When parents fail in their responsibility to provide the right environment for the children to grow in love it causes these kinds of things.
Your siblings abroad, I am sure they did not have anyone to help them on their way up and probably went through hell and are self made so it's really difficult for them to give back to a family that failed them when they needed help...

I hope you get my point, this is a symptom of failed parenting.

If I got you well, your mother gave birth to 8 children 4 each for 2 different fathers .... I can imagine how poorly she must have raised you guys in terms of showing and teaching you love.

Some families are like that esp. extended or polygamous families

It's hard to say the things responsible for this kind of behavior from relatives. I would not expect my siblings to ghost me for unjustified reasons especially with all we have being through together. That would be reckless and irresponsible of them all or whoever chooses to do that.

I wouldn't want to judge too because we do not know in full detail what is obtained in your family. These things don't just happen. I believe it's a build up of or from something, regardless of what that is.

Be thankful you all are doing well and not dependent on them. If it however matters to you, discuss with them and see if there would be changes. I would have assumed siblings from the same mother love each other more but it is what it is
