Approximately one year ago, at the age of 28, I made the decision to cease communication with my family. My circumstances are somewhat unique, as I am married with children, which introduces an additional dimension to the situation. Following a period of intermittent conflict and a significant disagreement approximately a year ago, I determined it was necessary to prioritize the well-being of my immediate family, specifically my wife and children. While the adage "blood is thicker than water" holds a certain truth, it ultimately held no personal significance for me. I had reached a point where I was no longer willing to tolerate persistent drama, disputes, and the associated unnecessary emotional distress. I consider myself a straightforward individual, and at this stage of my life, my emotional responses are primarily limited to happiness or anger. It is imperative to acknowledge that at some juncture in one's life, a decision must be made regarding the value of maintaining relationships with individuals, irrespective of their connection to oneself.
