Sounds like mom has been spreading lies for years about her."failure"daughter and promoting Emily.

I suddenly have the flu if I was in that position

Did AI write this contrived story?

Are we not going to talk about the great lasagna incident? Come on, leave me on a cliffhanger.

24:35

Op isn’t family they only see op as a free maid and nanny and the family scapegoat to blame all of their problems on…….

OP is so spineless.

This story really shocked and saddened me. Melanie’s mother was so selfish, treating her like that just for personal gain. But I also feel really proud of Melanie for realizing that real family isn’t just about blood, but about those who love and stand by you when you need them most. Aunt Mary is the true example of family.

"We just wanted peace in the family! You're not family!" is basically what Mom said at that one point.

I read so many stories like this, it’s getting difficult to believe this happens so often. But maybe it’s true

So frustrating! How could she let herself be taken advantage of like that without thinking ahead? Pouring all that money into renovating a house without even having her name on the deed-she completely set herself up for failure. Honestly, if she doesn’t get therapy to wake up, she’s just going to keep getting used!

These are not my kids take care of your own kids and if mom and Dad don't like it then they can baby sitting there grand children

I think the MC had no choice but to get away from her toxic family. If she continued living with them her sister would continue to work to destroy her life while being allowed to do so by her Father and Stepmother. Fortunately, she had grandparents who were looking out for her.

You go girl

I don't think you could have done it better.

Well what happened did he come back? Did they divorce who got custody? Who paid the bills? Did she have to go back to work? Did she have any friends or family who could help? The house I would have sold and left the area but that might add to the children’s trauma 😊

That many kids and only 1 adult. Those parents are crazy. If I'd been OP I would have used work as an excuse and stayed home. Got my presentation finished and then put my feet up and binged on pizza.

There's a lot of stupid people out there. Parents on both sides here have no brains. Imagined status is more important than anything else..especially family members. Romeo and Juliet managed to kill themselves to get away from them. That is not usually the solution these days. It worked though.

No sympathy, she allowed this to happen. Why is anyone on your credit card?

It says both sets of parents disowned both OP and husband. I hope both OP and hubby have sent both parental sets “THANK YOU” cards. And next week, please send them, “OMG THANK YOU VERY MUCH” as no amount of Thank Yous can ever equal the gratitude owed to them for disowning you.

Such mean, ridiculous and vindictive parents

So much repeating

I’m the eldest of 3 girls and while the three of us have had our issues we’ve never had to deal with insane narcissistic shit like this, our Mom is awesome and loved all of us equally and we know how blessed we are! Also as the mom of a 15 year old daughter my husband and I would never treat our baby girl the way these two soulless ghoul scumbags she unfortunately has for parents have! This is infuriating to listen to, and if I could I’d kick all 3 of their entitled egomaniacal asses!!!! This young woman is so damn strong for putting up with this abuse for as long as she did, and the support system has now is really great!!!!

You don't have a family. They have no regard for you. If you accept the role of walkable, you'll be walked upon. Ugggg Ridiculous to tell them about your job or anything else in your life.

Such a doormat 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽 makes no sense and needs therapy counseling bad 💔 she wasn't even smart enough to make them put house in her name before investing all that money for renovations 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽

Wow. Mariane is the Evil Queen. She was a maid in the house and 17 when she had Mark with the son of the house. OP parents are wackos. Mariane could have sold her luxury clothes.😂 Boooy! These families are wackos of 1st degree. I'd move to another state. So Marianne appeared at their hotel. How? Isn't people information protected or did the front desk just gave their room info and allowed her to get there?

Dumb AI story. Who has time to organize a protest against the mother in law who rightfully kicked you out

So her family disowned her for no reason at all? The whole story didn't make a lot of sense. Everyone turned on them for no fault of their own and his dad basically just turned into a huge coward and disappeared. Dumb

A department store? They would can your A in the next 10 minutes

Cease and desist order as well as restraining.

OP should have put a contractor's lien on the house to recoup the renovation costs.

should have taken part ownership of the property after investing in it.

This writer could have a future in writing fiction. Certainly not truthful stories. This AITA b.s. is re-hashed over and over again. Then the same old idiots offering their "expert" solutions. Ridiculous.

You’ll do good on your own so sorry they were like that

That phrase ‘we are family is too old I hate it!

This gets me mad you need to move out or say no, they selfish users

Sophie was deliberately planning to build her career by sabotaging her sister.

Is Sophie making up her stories or does she actually have a source? Or just posting what someone else is saying.

Is Sophie going to be a lawyer or investigative journalist? I hope.

They expect her to pay for the privilege of babysitting her sisters kids while everyone else goes skiing?

Why didn't u say you have never gotten anything to eat at any of the holidays since sister had her first child.

They want her to to to community college so she could invest home and be a free babysitter every weekend. and every holiday not participating in whatever the holiday and missing dinners.

If she's in the hospital they should tell the doctor about her delusional behaviors.

Should have brought out someone from the realtors office to the family meeting.

$30,000 would barely pay for the kitchen! A renovation as she described would cost 100k or more.

AI narrator. 👎

OP should have walked from the relationship as soon as she met the dragon.

Yeah, getting him fired without considering how that would affect your children's lives is called 'thinking emotionally ' as opposed to ' strategically '. Duh. 🤨

I can’t believe the daughter was disowned because if who she married, how did that cause a scandal for them they weren’t even rich

😂😂 Loved this!!!
