Woman Cuts off Ties With Family After Years of Mistreatment, Family Claims She Is Being Dramatic: 'They never liked me'

Families have complex dynamics. If you think about it, it makes the most sense, since the people who evoke the most emotion from us are those closest to us. Often our families know how to rile us up, make us smile, and exactly what to do to press our buttons, but what happens when you're the one who constantly feels like the black sheep of it all? We can't always be included 100% of the time, but we like to think it's a give-and-take. In an ideal situation, you feel like you belong the majority of the time. On the contrary, this woman definitely felt left out most of the time. Can you blame her for running away to New York City?  

When you feel detached from your family your whole life growing up, a lot of unresolved feelings can fester. Sometimes these feelings can blow up in everyone's faces and create some deep family trauma for all. That's exactly what happened in this family. We aren't sure who is in the wrong here, but one thing for certain is that it could have been handled better on both sides. What would you have done?
