I was bullied and excluded by my family growing up and it has escalated. Should I walk away or stay?

My mother had an old saying "you can pick your friends but you can't pick your family". I didn't understand it until I was an adult. If these were friends or acquaintances, would you allow them to treat you this way? Being "family" doesn't give us the right to be cruel to family members.

Your family seem like nasty miserable liberals. Write these morons off and move your life in a different direction.

Pets- Fish? Frankly you only have one family and they don't live forever. So before you walk away, I'd suggest you do your best to try to sort out the issues you all have with each other. One day they won't BE there!
