Need to vent//IM HAVING A NIECE BUT HER MOM IS PSYCHO?!?

My brother and I are twins. Growing up we always had our differences but we were each others go tos. Yesterday I was on Facebook and I saw “baby Howard’s 19 weeks! Surprise!” And my heart sank into my stomach.

He has been put through hell by this female that only cares about herself. She has sent the nastiest messages to both of my parents while he is away at work. As well as me. She always tells me “you think you’re so perfect” but it’s intact the opposite. I know I’m flawed. As we all are. She has hit him, kicked him out of the car and left him stranded in the middle of nowhere. Made him drive home from Tennessee because she threatened to leave him for good if he didn’t. (He was at school for 12 weeks of training and then would be home) But if you’re going to be a part of my life and around my family then you need to respect them? 🤷🏼‍♀️right

I feel selfish for this. I’m not sure why I feel so angry. Could it be that I’m just thinking of myself. My husband and I have been trying for 7 months now to conceive. My family is a very “brush everything under the carpet” type of family. But why should I keep forgiving someone who always turns around and does the same thing but worse.

I want to be happy because that it my niece. But they live with her dad and have no source of income other than what my brother makes mowing yards in the summer time. I know it’s not my life or my business what they do. But that is my brother. All I want is for someone to explain to him this isn’t a joke or a game. Get your life together. Don’t ask for hand outs anymore. No one pays my bills but me yet you were the one with the approval from everyone. I feel so angry and I hate it. Someone help me understand this.
