So, I provided miss-information and have heard it repeatedly via DCF, my own family ect..

Why can’t these people (flying monkeys) who are so interested in lies, supporting someone with a mental health issue?

I read the psych evaluations- I know who the unstable parent is.

To the people I asked for help and was denied years ago, but who now have their hand out.. Keep holding your hand out, nothing from me is going to fill it.. ever.

I understand what you’re doing and find it deeply disturbing.

Something similar is now happening to all of my nieces and nephews. It’s a family of narcissists and flying monkeys and I am always used as the scapegoat and the emotional bin. The kids used to loce me, but as they get okder, they’re manipulated into viewing me as the enemy. I’m not in a position to leave right now financially, but as soon as I can, I think I’ll go no contact with all of them.

I should know as my brother with is one and she is a nut case. She uses my brother as a flying monkey to do her bidding against his own immediate family thinking she will get all our property, The lies include carer abuse of an elderly relative and alleging mental illness and trying to get me sectioned.

Flying monkey’s often have narcissistic traits and narcissists attract other narcissists. Keep your GP informed if you are abused. Agree with the stop flow of information and further stop all contact. Some relatives need to learn the hard way

My own child, now an adult was groomed by everyone, including my pos boomer parent, to be my enemy!!!!!!!! Truly a painful thing, I was forced to cut ties completely with the kid! I can spot a F- primate a mile away!!
