Being estranged from a family member can be tough, but if they're the toxic, narcissist type, for some folks, being away from their family is actually a huge relief. Distancing yourself from that sort of dynamic is the best thing to do, but when rotten family members come out of the woodwork in order to get something from you, it smells like trouble from a mile away. In this case, one man who was alienated from his family gets roped back into the drama in the course of one phone call when his sister tries to schmooze her way back into his good graces using her own children as a weapon.
OP had created a healthy niche in his life after years of abuse from his small-town home. Hours away from anyone who may harass him, he'd grown accustomed to the twice-a-year group text from the family saying, "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Easter". However, his sister, who had stayed in town, went after him after decades of not speaking. Something reeks of ulterior motives here…
He wasn't invited to her wedding and had never met her husband or two small children, but all of the sudden, OP's sister was supremely interested in having a relationship with her big bro. The catch? She actually just wanted him to take care of her kiddos for a few weeks while she was on vacation. Yikes. Scroll for the full, detailed story of how this man stood his ground, protecting his niece and nephew from his bachelor pad and forcing his sister to take a hard look at their past.
