If I ignore calls and try to enjoy anytime away I get threats to my pets property and anything else he can think of…. then what? I’m not the only person I have to look out for either

my sister is a control freak.
she wants everyone to follow what she says esp.her family. if not followed she throws a tantrum that could result in talking about self harm
we dunno how to approach and correct her behavior. she’s ruining everyone around her.

I’m so sorry to hear about what you are going through. If you are at risk of hurting yourself or others, please immediately call 911 or go to the nearest Crisis Center or Emergency Room.

My daughter of 43 years cut off all family ties and I am not allowed to see them although I raise her kids now 17 and 6 years. I put a lot of money and all my time in them, and all my love. I am 70 this year, it feels as if she burry me alife. I am struggeling to cope.

It usually goes back to childhood. How were you raised? One must literally retrain their brain because many of the behaviors learned are built into the subconscious. This is totally possible.
