7. There's a tendency for us to feel guilty, after years of wanting to be a good child,

...they can use this desire to their own ends.

I was expected to build a fire, to fix every damned thing that broke, never mind my own house, or was made to feel like a ungrateful child.

I realized that I had to let that go, I had to say no. And that's not easy.

And your sister, same here and with almost everyone I've met who's gone through this: one child always steps up.

My sister moved far away as things got worse and worse, not that she did that much while she lived closer, under an hour away.

My house is under a mile away. A nice young couple bought the folk's place.
