Am I wrong for this?..

Question

I don't know why but I want to move away and not have any connection to my family. it's not that I hate them It's just there are some hurts there mainly with my parents.. When I talked to them about how I felt they didn't understand. I just sometimes feel like I would do better and wouldn't have so much pressure on me.

Answer

Do what's best for you. Blood only runs so deep.

Answer

Honestly most of my family is raging alcoholics. My mother is a wonderful woman, and I mean she'll always be my mum; but most of my real family is my friends. They've been my support system for years and I probably wouldn't be alive today if it wasn't for them. I believe that family is what you make it, not what you're born into. Afterall, soul ties run deeper than bloodlines.

Answer

I understand. I want to do the same. It's been 5 years of bullshit since my parents separated and my dad was incarcerated. 
Im now married and there are issues with my husbands family. They are possessive and controlling when it comes to our 10 month old daughter. I'm just sick of it. I want to move out of province. Not deny them the right to visit but rather put some healthy distance between us. Your not wrong or "mean" for feeling this way.

Answer

I feel the same, a bit. Like just being at home with them puts this weight on your shoulders and doesn’t come off until you leave. I hope whatever it is could be settled with your family. That even after all this you have some sort of support from them. But if not then I hope you have the plan and the strength to het out and only look back if you feel you should

Answer

If your parents haven't wronged you in some horrible way, you should reconsider. One of the reasons that the modern world is so terrible is because people don't have any sense of duty to family anymore, everyone has the idea "I'll only do what's right for me" and that's not how you build a health family/community.
