A Facebook user recently stated on his unhappiness after his sister divorced her ex husband who is a jailbird. She then married her new rich husband but continued to leech onto her ex mother in law and her own mother. Even her current “rich” husband is leeching onto her mother.
Here is the full story.
Writing this to let off some steam before I explode. My 26 year old sister is completely useless. She expects my mother and her ex mother in law to raise her daughter, without doing anything herself.
Backtrack, sister gave birth at 19, husband went to jail awhile back so she divorced him and married another man with more money. My niece stays with her ex mother in law. BUT, my mother drives her to and fro school, pays for her school fees, insurance, enrichment classes, therapy sessions (has learning disabilities) and looks after her during the weekends. When my niece is at my house, my sister just watches TV with her or brings her go out gai gai. That’s it. No effort to teach her spelling, maths or ting Xie at all.
Also not your child so not your problem. Did I mention my sister and her new husband are living with my mom and I? So it’s my problem. They don’t do anything around here and treat it like it’s some hotel. My mom, yes my mom, washes my brother in law’s underwear, cleans their room and toilet for them. What do they give in return? Nothing. They can have staycations at MBS, buy a Mercedes and hold a hotel marriage ceremony all during covid times but can’t fork out $200 a month to my mom for living under her roof. My mom has repeatedly hounded my sis for the $200 but she keeps delaying it saying that budget is tight. Bitch please, I wfh so I know how many clothing parcels get delivered to our house. For the record, both of them are 27 and 26, and are both working full time, it’s disgusting I know.
I fear that one day ah, I’ll do something unspeakable to them. I’ve scolded both of them before but since they’re older than me my mom said to keep quiet. I refuse to clean up their mess but I do other housework and give more money to my mom. I just can’t stand this injustice. Mom raised my sis and I alone so I can’t bear to see her in her late 50s doing everything over again. She said if she doesn’t look after her, no one will. After work my sister will usually go dinner or drinking with her husband and post on insta story. I hate how my she shrugs off all responsibility of her daughter. Her sole reason is that she didn’t ask for it and that other people volunteered to do things for her baby so it’s “not my fault”. Most of all I pity my niece. Her biological father is due to be released soon so I’m not sure if we will see her as often as now. Having been raised in a broken family, there will certainly be some psychological effects in the future. I just pray that she will not turn out like her parents and lead an unproblematic life. Thanks for listening to my rant.
