Once family dramas happen they can’t always be fixed. And sometimes there are some that cause so much emotion and tension that the relationship needs to be cut off, otherwise, things can turn toxic. It is a shame that some family disputes and issues result in people never speaking again. However, it can happen. Even though we love our families, sometimes some relationships are not supposed to be.
She No Longer Speaks to Her Mother
TikToker Samantha (@samanthamichlitsch) shares a storytime video on why she is no longer speaking to her mother.
In the video, she shares a personal story, with very private details, about the last time they spoke and why this situation has caused her to cut their relationship.
A Detailed Account
Samantha’s viewers had been wondering why she was involved with her partner’s family but not her own. She will be sharing a video series to explain her family drama.
She will not disclose her siblings’ names or stories as this is not her information to share.
She Is a Kind Woman Herself
Samantha is a very respectful woman, luring her audience in and making them understand her story is legitimate and equally moving.
She is a kind person who probably never wanted her relationship with her mother to end.
Her Mother Is an Alcoholic
She starts by sharing that her mother became an alcoholic around 12 years ago.
Her issue began by drinking wine and wine coolers but this consumption quickly escalated into drinking Jameson, a strong whisky.
When she last spoke to her mother, she would consume around a handle of Jameson every two days.
The Alcoholism Quickly Got Worse
Samantha said that she had tried “everything under the sun” to get her mother to stop drinking, but it was never enough.
While they were all trying to help treat her alcoholism, the mother would try to cause drama between the siblings in any way possible.
She Provoked Arguments
Her mother would make up stories or prefer one sibling’s company on one day and then prefer someone else another day, all due to stories she made up in her head.
Samantha doesn’t wish to share examples of issues her mother created because it involves her siblings.
But, you can just imagine what kind of stories would arise when their mother saw everyone was happy to try and break them apart.
She Loved to Cause Drama
She goes on to say that her mother loved to create drama for no reason and when she did this, she would fly off the handle and was not be easy to control.
She Needed Therapy
Samantha suggests that her mother needed therapy and other outside help to get her alcoholism and drama issues under control.
Her mother experienced personal trauma, as did her siblings, but they always refused help.
Hence, her mother never overcame her issues and instead, hindered her mental health to the point where she wanted to bring others down with her.
She Cut the Relationship
Samantha then shared the reason her relationship with her mother had to come to an end. After she had her son, her partner’s family was very active in his life.
They would plead to spend time with their grandson and as a result of this time they spent together, her mother would get jealous.
The Rules Were Broken
When Samantha would allow her mother to spend time with her grandson, she made two simple rules. She was not smoke in the house and to not drink and drive around her son.
These are simple and easy-to-respect rules, however, her mother did not follow through.
A Broken Relationship
These boundaries were broken and the relationship came to an end. If her mother cannot respect her son, how can she respect her mother?
It is a shame when family members act this way, but it is for the good of Samantha’s son to cut the relationship with her mother until she changes her attitude.
