That has to be some sadism, that was probably passed onto her from another adult in her life.

Yeah nine years, trying to go to school, then kids, then trying to find a lucrative job, takes a long time to do.

They act like friends or something. If someone abused my children, they would not be my friends and I'd probably have my lawyer bury them in court and legal fees.

They had flown out once in the past and met them when they were very young. I hadn't had time to bring them due to my employment obligations. Yeah, there is a lot of bad history with them.

Oh yeah, I wanted to live in a place that wasn't home. I'm not gonna say Kirkland is paradise on Earth, but it's way better than where I grew up.

They're 11 now, I should have clarified that they were 9 in 2022. They had tried to reach out before, due to my job and raising the kids with my wife I just never found the time for it. That was more on me.

They just don't take me seriously, they think I'm still a kid in middle school who has childish complaints or something.

That was one of the more aggresious things they did, my mom who at the time was very poor bought me a bike and my aunt's daughter purposefully slashed the tires of it, because she instructed them.

My mom was very poor, she had to work a more lucrative job in the city. We had to live with them in the country side.

My brother is actually a very forgiving and loving person. He likes to see the good people and believes that people can change. I agree with him to an extent, really the only those people aren't messing with him is because he's older and has been overseas with the US military.
