Hi well this is a long story. So I have a family, I have seven brothers and sisters. To say it’s dysfuncfional or has had problems over the years is a little bit of ah understatement. 

It’s always been about the women of the family too. The sister in laws, my sisters etc. 

I feel like everyone is kind of isolated, everyone has had fights over the years, and no one wants to start anything. 

So apparently my sisters knew it was my niece’s 16th birthday party. They got two cakes (but not for her), and didn’t even acknowledge her birthday really. (She was forced to be there also). 

Basically my sisters are a lot younger than me and my brothers. The two youngest ones (in their mid 20s) I assumed would be more mature. 

For those who are confused, my family is kind of dysfunctional. My sister in law who is the nieces mom, practically did so much for my younger sisters in their lives, and the fact that they made a family gathering on her birthday and don’t even acknowledge it. I just didn’t know what to say. (I got her money btw) for a present. 

I just made a scene honestly. I was so angry. I just said it was fucking bullshit and what kind of shit is this. I never act like that ever. Everyone was so surprised. I just said they needed to grow the fuck up (in front of my elderly religious parents) and I left. 

I could tell my SIL and brother were upset and uncomfortable that no one acknowledged her birthday. 

fucking arranging a family gathering and don’t acknoledge it was their nieces birthday what the fuck
