Toxic

Lately, I have had some problems with toxic family members. One of them left me a very nasty vm. I am not not speaking to this person & have decided to keep them out my life as they drain all my energy which leaves me exhausted. It is not fair to my husband or my boys. The only important people in this world to me is my husband and my boys. Everyone else is second to them. I have to constantly fight to keep it this way. I am always amazed how hard I must fight to keep those three people the firsts in my life. I have a lot of needy family members. Part of it is because their parents did not teach them how to be self sufficient. Therefore, they tend to be a drag on the stronger ones in the family. Part of is to be expected we are not all the same and there are times when we need to lean on our family for their strength. However, when it is the same couple of family members every time and they refuse to grow up and get the real help they need then they become a drag to the family unit. In my case these couple of members need to be cut off for awhile or forever.

I have decided to be very selective who & what I allow into my life from now on. It is imperative for me to make this decision. I need to make sure my husband and children come first.
