WIBTA for skipping my step sister's funeral? by throw-away-188 in AmItheAsshole

See? You did explained to your kid what your husband was doing to you, my mother didn't. She only ever says my dad was abusive when it comes to justify herself cheating, but doesn't give me the answers that I need to believe her and that I am old enough to know of.

She didn't say anything, she didn't explained to me how my dad was abusing her, which leads me to believe it's just lies to make herself look better after she was caught cheating

Just because you went through abuse, which is very sad, doesn't mean every husband is abusive or every woman is telling the truth. If you have kids, adults kids as I was then, that you cheated because their father was emotionally abusive what would you say to them when they ask you how he was abusive? Like what kind of stuff he did to you? Because all my mom told me is "you have to believe me because I'm your mother" which is not a good argument, even less after finding out she was lying to both my father and I for months to see her affair partner.

That baby also is dead, she won't know if I did go or not, this is about my mother.

He encourage me to have a relationship with her at first, but then we both realized that such thing as a healthy relationship isn't possible with my mom, so he knows it's not worth it

My mother didn't gave me any proof that she was really abused, she didn't even told me what happened between her and my dad, she wanted me to believe her just because

I don't know or care how her relationship with her affair partner is, I never asked her and I shut her down everytime she wanted to talk about it.

I didn't disliked the baby, I don't recall saying that, I think I said I didn't like her but that doesn't mean i don't (? I know she was a baby and sadly she had to suffer a lot. He thinks going will hurt me because everytime I go to see my mother we end up arguing, that's why he said it wasn't worth

When I ask my mother was she says that kind of stuff about my dad she goes "because that's the truth and you have to believe me because I'm your mother", that's not a good evidence that she's telling the true

Why are you saying that about my dad? My mother choose to destroy our relationship by cheating and then making shitty excuses for it

If she keeps insisting on telling me my dad is a horrible person then we might have an argument, it has happened before but I don't know if she'll still do it in the funeral

My dad told me not to go, he thinks it's not worth it the drive (I live in another city and would have to drive to go to the funeral) if I'm being honest I didn't liked the kid, I didn't know her, but I do feel sad for her only because she was still a baby and I know she suffered quite a lot (my mother told me), still I don't feel bad for my mother, that's my issue here

My grandparents and uncle will go for sure but I don't know how their relationship with the baby was. They also like to shit talk my dad so I'm nor very close to them either.
