Question by duhkidd: Am I being Emotionally Abused?
I am 16 years old. me, my older brother, and my younger brother have been living with my grandmother and her husband for about ten years. My mother sent us from Omaha, Nebraska to live with her in Atlanta, Georgia. My mother was on drugs and shoplifting and she was on her way to prison. My grandmother often reminds us how we would not have had experienced traveling if we lived in Omaha, Nebraska with any of our other relatives. She used to tell us that if we didn’t want to live with her then she would send us to a foster home and give all our games away. When my mother came down to visit us recently she didn’t want us to see her, so we snuck out the house while she was at work and my mom picked us up and we spent time with her at my aunt’s house. When my grandmother found out she began to call us ungrateful and explained that she is not going to buy us anything unless we absolutely need it. My grandmother often tells me that I am weird because I don’t say much around her and she tells me that I have a negative vibe and I better smile. She always yell and is never willing to listen to what I have to say? Am I being emotionally abused? Please Help Me!    Read more...
