My parents just disowned me (40M) because I don't trust the Fauci ouchie. They tried to emotionally blackmail me today since I wrote 'I love you' on my Mom's mother's Day card. "If you really loved me, you'd get the shot." -My Mom. I live a few miles from my parents, and I loved them with all of my heart. They told me never to visit them again. I'm a living orphan now. I extended and olive branch and they burned it to the ground.
It's on them. I have never been mean to them about this. They have been rubbing Biden's (s)election theft in my face since November.
If your family is clear thinking, hug them extra hard for me. I'm now a living orphan at 40. I didn't think I could hate 2021 more than 2020, but it pulled it off somehow.
Sorry, but you're better off.
They sound like the kind of people that would tell the Nazis who's attic Anne Frank is hiding in.
I agree. Sadly, this Covid stoff showed their true colors. I've been an independent person all of my life but my parents always had my back until now. It really sucks, but I can now focus on myself and whatever happens to them and the shot, is on them.
Find yourself some conservative elders and be a surragate (sp) son to them. You will be helping them and helping yourself. And even tho your parents are cutting the ties, take the high road and send cards on special days. I have a feeling they will mellow.Good luck my friend.
That’s excellent advice fren!!
Beautiful advice u/quila62! A win/win for everyone. This has happened in our family but I hold out hope for us all since I have no doubt that minds will change when truths are revealed. ?
Meanwhile u/TrumpsRedTie you have us...we are your family! Stay strong fren. WWG1WGA!
I'm so sorry your parents are so closed minded. That was certainly uncalled for. Sometimes I wonder if these people are soooo adamant because they took the shot. They want to believe the shot is safe, and nothing will happen to them. They know some people don't think it's safe and they're not 100% sure.
I tried to stop my mom, brother and sister. But they all took the shot and convinced my mom to do it. They all got together today for Mother's Day, and I was not invited. No one is angry, but they are probably scared of me because I haven't taken the shot. That's fine with me. I visited her a few days ago, and sat in the garden outside her senior housing. I'm a bit concerned of THEM shedding the spike protein.
At this point, taking the shot would feel like committing suicide. Nothing is worth that.
I think with the passage of time and all of the information coming out, they will realize they were wrong and want a relationship with you. Everything is always changing. God Bless You.
Have done, do recommend.
Hopefully on the "other side of the tunnel", these people will emerge largely unscathed and fences can be mended as required.
Motivations based on fear and shame come from different parts of the brain than reason. Human history is replete with countless episodes of "good" people doing the most horrible things imaginable. Stay strong and keep your heart open for when it is time to forgive.
It's great to have a brother/sister/attack helicopter :-) that I never had before! Thank you!
Damn shame really, but it is what it is.
I know exactly how you feel my sister and her husband have gotten the shots wouldn’t listen and believe since Xiden goes to church he must be a “good” person, sigh ... I’m sorry it’s tough all we can do is hope they see.
My brothers CHURCH is pushing the jab hard. "We can't meet normally until everyone has been vaxxed" ... So sad :(
I hate to say it, but you don't need a church to stay in touch with God. I've been a church goer all my life. One thing this whole covid and Trump presidency has done is brought me closer to God in a more spirirual way. I still have my friends from church, but I finally realize I don't need a building for it.
Sounds like my boss. We can’t go back to normal until everybody gets vaxed, but we are not going to force the vax.
Sorry guys, guess I will be the reason we don’t return to normal
What kind of "church" is that? The first question to that pastor would be so I have to put my faith in a man-made potion then Faith in Jesus Christ Before I can be accepted back? I would love to hear his answer and watch him try and talk in circles ?
Same here but with a small group which did not want to meet until all vaxxed. Crazy!
Xiden was literally denied communion for supporting anti-catholic laws. He's essentially excommunicated himself.
Too late for them. They are now genetically modified test subjects....
Maybe time to start your own family.
My mom keeps telling me to take the shot so they can see us. I'm like you could of seen us last summer or whenever. There loss. They will regret it when my baby is grown up and doesnt know who they are.
