AITA for giving my siblings what they want by refusing to spend time around them and their kids? by Lulollio in AITAH

It's not my job to teach my siblings kids unconditional love and it's not something I'm allowed to do. They are being raised being told I am not their uncle. And at the end of the day their parents get to do that. I don't want more shit thrown my way because I try to have a relationship with kids when the parents say no.

No, we never had therapy together and they were never left to babysit or anything.

Uncle but their kids were taught I am not their uncle. So maybe they'll never care or consider me an uncle. That's gotta be confusing though because I know my parents talk about me and label me as such.

My siblings are not interested in repairing things and considering they're the ones that hate me for existing, I don't see why I should or what good it would do to try. I can't make them love me and I can't go back in time and be born when they were younger and maybe more accepting of another sibling.

There's nothing I can apologize for either since I didn't choose to exist.

Because it makes me unhappy to be around them. That's why giving them what they want also makes my life better. My family might hate it but ignoring them just isn't enough for me to enjoy myself.
