    When a child is disowned by a parent, it means that one of them is a monster.
    The only question is which one.

    I’m the disowned child, funny enough. My mother was abusive and we were on such different ends of the spectrum ideologically that we butted heads constantly when I was a teen. Living with her was like walking on egg shells; one moment being perfectly fine and another she’s screaming at us. To give you a sense of how crazy this lady was, she screamed and insulted me because I didn’t want to go to subway with her and my stepfather and told me I should be happy that she didn’t abandon me like my father did (which wasn’t the case). Told me I should just pack my things and move in with him since I was such a, “stuck up, little bitch.” ... I was 14!
    She wanted me to break off several relationships with people she personally didn’t like for various reasons. She ruined me and my brother’s relationship with our father because she wanted to get back at him for remarrying, ordered me to end a very close relationship with my best friend because they were LGBT+ and she didn’t want to have to deal with their pronouns, and HATED my then boyfriend/now husband, the latter of which ultimately being the reason she disowned me. My mother would always make snide remarks about me being a different person around him and how she didn’t like how he changed me, the change being that I was visibly happier. After she held my brothers over my head and told me to break up with him, I said no and that was that.
    I haven’t regretted a single decision made that led up to be disowned, and I’m happier more than ever now because I don’t have a crazy, manipulative asshole breathing down my neck and asking me to end every relationship that wasn’t specifically with a white man.

    Other way around, I started as a kid loving my mom but she never loved me. She had me to try trapping my dad with her, then he ran off with me, divorcing her. She refused to let my dad have custody so my grandparents were my legal guardians. Then when she had two more kids when I was like 7 she convinced my grandparents she wanted me in her life and I spent the whole school year with her and my step father. I was mentally and physically abused, molested while in her care, made a third parent to my half sisters seeing they were the golden children and was suicidal at the age of 11. When I was 14 my mother and her husband finally divorced and I told my father about the abuse her husband had caused in an incident of rage because I was left with him instead of leaving with my mother. After I finished middle school I permanently moved over with my father and grandparents and told my mother I disowned her for her actions and I had no mother. It costed me my sisters but if I hadn't done it I would have been expected to see her and be terrified the whole time.
    It's been 4 years now. 4 months ago my father commit suicide and I called her to tell her because I wanted to respect her as his former wife by letting her know directly. She was so unreactive and blank, felt nothing about it and I couldn't be filled with less anger at a woman who didn't care someone she had claimed to love was gone and her eldest child was in pain.
    Now I refer to myself as an orphan. Because my father, who loved me with all his heart and soul all his life, is gone and I NEVER had a mother.

    My mom disowned my brother when I told her about how he sexually abused me. It was super weird because one day he lived in the room next to mine and the next day he didn’t live here anymore and never would again.
    No idea if I’ll ever see him. No idea if the rest of my family will ever really adjust to the idea that he did that to me for years and no one noticed. I hope someday my family will have a new normal and everything will be okay. It’s the second boy my parents have had to kick out. The first one was because he became violent and punched my mom in the stomach while she was pregnant with me. Not sure why brothers in my family feel the need to kill me. 🤷‍♀️

      She seems to get her life on tracks now but she is probably temporally
      After many second chances. My family hates her and if she is allowed to stay close with us, we want distance

    My dad was disowned by his family for a while because he got married and started a family. He was the main provider for the lot of freeloaders and they considered him getting married as selfish. Consequently they resented my mom and myself. We moved far away from everyone but my dad still kept in contact with them. It wasn’t until recently that we started to interact with them but there’s still friction between my mom and some of my dad’s siblings. Now part of the family is pissed off again because my dad refused to sell (more like hand over) the land and house my grandmother left him. So yeah, a bunch of free loaders.

      Are some of those step siblings? Because 13 is a lot of siblings even if it is divided between two parents. It would be more understandable if your mother and father had 3 kids together, then each married a partner that had 3 kids from a previous marriage and then your father and mother each had two children with their new spouse. That would equal 13, but it would only require each of your parents to have five kids each (3 together).

    My mom’s family disowned her older brother. The whole family always had had a bad relationship with him. He was often easily angered, left a mess wherever he went, and depended on my grandparents too much. My grandpa had built their house by hand and it was 4 stories tall. The first floor was the kitchen and living room. Second, was my mom and her younger sister’s room. 3rd was the brother’s room. And last was a prayer room or something like that. (Her parents were religious.) He had always lived with my grandparents even when he was an adult. My mom and aunt had moved to America as teenagers so it left him with my grandparents. (They originally lived in Taiwan.) 3 years ago, my grandma had passed away due to a failed surgery. Since we were in America, it left my grandpa alone in Taiwan with him. But he had decided to move out during that time with his wife. My grandpa was truly alone in his house. He never visits my grandpa, despite his circumstances. So recently, my family has agreed to disown him. He isn’t family to them anymore. My mom and aunt call my grandpa daily to check in on him and generally spend time with him so he wasn’t alone. Whenever they talk about him, they refer to him as “the guy” (translated from mandarin) and his wife as “the girl.” We don’t talk about him unless necessary.

In turn, I had to disown my 20-year-old daughter, because she accused my husband and me of abuse to deflect blame from her grandmother and make me look guilty. So I’m disowned from my ENTIRE family, and for my sanity, and for a normal life for the other children, I disowned my daughter. It damn near destroyed me. I’d forgive my daughter if she ever admitted she lied, but I sincerely hope my mother burns in Hell. And THAT will never change.

      Lol, pretty sure they mean- like, for example; Mom, dad, Son/daughter. 3 of them. If the child they have grows up purposefully doing 'bad' or 'terrible' things [Rape, kill, smoke, drink, steal, etc.], even when they "try to help" and "get them on track" of course they'd disown them. It's like a promise, if you make one and someone breaks it- you'd feel betrayed. And if you keep making promises with them and they keep breaking them and so on, you'll end up becoming fed up with their mess and stop fooling around with them. Or a trick candle, if you keep attempting to blow it out, it'll get tiring and you wouldn't want to do it anymore. That's an acceptable reason as to why you should disown someone. But doing it because you're too lazy to help them or because they don't live up to your "dream child" viewpoint isn't acceptable- *at all* , it's toxicity at its finest.

    I know parents who temporarily disowned their child. They’re my dad’s aunt and uncle. They’re long dead from old age. They were born around 1910 and were wealthy, successful Jews who strongly valued education and hard-work. Originally from Canada, they immigrated to the States to open a casino in Las Vegas. It’s still there! Anyways one of their daughters became a drug addict. It was a huge shock for the entire family. No one on my dad’s side of the family does drugs. They barely drink. Plus this was the 60’s and 70’s so attitudes towards drug addicts were significantly more close-minded. My dad’s aunt and uncle couldn’t understand their daughter and were horrified, confused, and overwhelmed. They disowned her until she got clean and got her act together (my understanding is that the drug phase didn’t last very long. Several years I think.) anyways, their daughter got clean and became a wealthy real-estate agent. Her parents forgave her but tragically no one else in the family did. My dad, my mom, and I are the *ONLY* ones who still talk to her. It’s very sad. It’s been around 50 years of sobriety for her and no one in the family wants anything to do with her. Even her siblings barely tolerate her. She’s a very good person. A little strange and intense at times but overall very sweet. Clearly a strong-minded and capable person as she became wealthy all on her own.

Her grown children became just as important to him as all of his children. They had always planned on splitting up the assets equally among all their children. Livy's granddaughter was to receive her wedding ring. But only the other son, uncle to the granddaughter, could make it to Livy's funeral, so he was entrusted in delivering the ring, after the funeral, on his drive home.
    I had met him in the past but never had a chance to get to know him until the funeral. I thought he was a great guy! I was wrong.
    On his way home, he suddenly felt like he needed and deserved money more than the granddaughter deserved to inherit her grandmother's ring, so he sold it at a pawn shop. Then, he drove to his brother's house and delivered the message that he deserved it more, instead of delivering the ring.
    It broke my grandfather's heart, his health took a turn for the worse, and he died shortly afterwards! He tried to have that son written out of the will but died before it could be official.
    The entire family is shocked and heartbroken. I'm pretty sure we've all disowned him.
    Wow, Bruce. What a disappointment you turned out to be. Good thing your mother never found out, huh?

    My moms dad disowned her for getting pregnant with my brother at 19. When I was born 4 years later, he finally reached out. When I was about 1 or 2 (before my parents’ wedding) he wanted to spend a day with my brother and I, but my mom said that maybe he could come over and spend time with the whole family since my brother and I had never met him before that. He got really mad and stopped talking to my entire family. He didn’t go to their wedding. I haven’t seen him in about 6 years, and when I did see him he was giving me my birthday present (1 box of old Archie Comics) in a Best Buy parking lot. I don’t call him grandpa and even though I see my Great Uncle Brian, his brother, maybe once or twice a year, he’s more of a grandpa to me than he has ever been. Actually, my mom told me that one time when I was little and I saw them at the same time I called Uncle Brian “grandpa” right in front of my moms dad and his face was priceless. My granny has a boyfriend who lives with her and I’ve known him my whole life and he’s also way more of a grandpa than my moms dad has ever been

    My dad and my part of the family are nearly disowned from his side.
    Besically, my grandfather died when my dad was a teenager. My dad took the role of man of the house and worked dozens of jobs to help grandma support the house. When my aunt started dating a alcoholic my dad didn’t approve, which started the rift. They got married and my uncle straightened out after having kids. Once he was better he and my dad got along famously(and still do to this day)
    But my aunt never let it go. Holding a grudge against my dad she refused to fully accept my mom into the family, harshly judging her. (My mom is also the sweetest most wonderful and selfless human being who has and ever will exist in this universe. Haha yeah I love my mum very much)
    Things were stressed before I was born (I’m the fourth of 5 girls) when dads side expected my family to spend all of their holidays with them and not with my moms side.
    This unreasonable expectation continued until I was a young child. I remember having to do lots of running back and forth on holidays.
    But the thing that really made a rift was when my oldest sisters (ages 8 and 9 before I was born) were playing with our (18) cousin. One of them accidentally shut his fingers in a door (not to be mean, it was accident and he was fine) in response he threw her across the room. My mom obviously came to the defense of her daughter but my aunt came to the unreasonable defense of her son. They blamed the child to be at fault and not the adult.
    A few years later that cousin moved to Chicago became a drug addict and no one talks to him anymore. Turns out he was always a bit mental.
    Things were tense after that. They wanted virtually nothing to do with us, but out of courtesy invited us to the birthday parties of their children’s children. Well, courtesy and to get gifts. But they don’t actually WANT us there.
    They usually hold the parties at the other grandparents house. Instead of my cousins or aunt greeting us we are greeted by the grandparents. They’re old friends of my parents, but my cousins and aunt avoid us like the plague.
    For the majority of my life my grandmother sort of just ignored me and my sisters. We know that grandma, my aunt, and my cousins are all gossipers so we know that they talk about us behind our backs.
    Although in recent years it seems that grandma wants to make up for it. She’s putting at least SOME effort into seeing her grand children. I’ll be receptive to her, but I don’t really want to go out of my way when I’m just going to be judged.
    I do feel a bit bad though. My sisters and I are quite toned down around grandma, and ngl, we don’t really like talking with her because she likes to complain about the smallest things(she is used to complaining alongside my aunt and cousins who will complain with her. We do not) although we always love seeing our grandpa on moms side. He’s always been friendly, loving, and enjoyable to talk to.
    I can’t help but feel bad this one time we met both grandma and grandpa. Grandma arrived first and we gave sort of muted and monotone greetings. And when grandpa got there we were visibly happy to see him.
    I need to spend more time with grandpa. He’s getting pretty old, and I don’t think I’ve had enough opportunity to be with him. He always has a cool story about all kinds of stuff be it motorcycles, his time in the airforce, or even a story of how the leader of a mafia gave him a club for self defense. He likes to talk about how different things used to be and I think it’s really cool!

    It's a parent's duty to love, grow, raise, and protect their children as they age. Don't blame a child for a poor upbringing; but when someone is old enough to know better and makes poor and foolish decisions that destroy any respect they're given, a parent isn't obligated to love them any longer. A trashy person is a trashy person, and just as with other biological family members, blood ties mean nothing. If someone is old and knowledgeable enough to weigh the consequences of their decisions, they're entirely responsible for them.

The child that you raised and loved since they were a little kid. I don’t understand how someone can just throw that love and care away. If my son was a school shooter or mass shooter, you best believe my ass is calling for the life sentence or even death penalty. But I still love him because he’s my son.

    Not exactly related but, my dad's brother in law's father has sexually assaulted my mother 4 times over the course of 25 years. My father is a police officer, by the time he found out, the BIL's father had a stroke and couldn't function (memory loss, general forgetfulness. Cant walk on his own.) So my dad would seem like the bad guy if he took him outside and beat his face in. It all came to a head 3 years ago when i was 15 and i saw him grab my mom. I pushed him onto the floor and broke his nose. My aunt went berserk and cut us out of her life and freaked out at my dad for defending me. My mom is my hero and my best friend. I would kill anybody who would do her harm. I stand by what I did and would do it again. We get attacked on social media by her and my cousin. Mu dad's BIL however is really embarrassed by this and is a decent person. Im still pissed off that they won't leave us alone.

      Getting away is the best solution, but one day you may have to encounter her again, due to the family that connects you. You will need concrete evidence, like recordings or third parties which will vouch for her trashy behaviour.

Eventually he started using his 2 kids agaisnt the family to hurt us. He wouldn't allow my mother to see her only grandkids for most of there childhood and that was the last straw for me. I saw him for the last time when I was 15. We were moving from Tucson Arizona to Houston texas. We had just packed up and I was making my final walk through of my childhood home. I turn the corner in the back yard and saw him. I have never sprinted so fast or speared anybody so hard before. I only remember screaming at the top of my lungs and beating him half to death before standing up and telling him that if he ever makes our mother cry again I will break his legs.

    I had a friend whose parents disowned her older sister. Weird case of a "Golden Child" going bad. The family was upper middle class (parents in the medical field) and lived in a nice neighborhood. The girl did well until she got in her teens and then she just started causing all kinds of trouble. It all came to an end when she 1) assaulted her younger sister, who ended up going to the hospital and 2) got involved in two convenience store robberies with some friends. She was 17 by this time and was tried as an adult. She was in jail for quite a while and when she got out, no one would have anything to do with her. She just kept going in and out of jail, usually for violent crimes. This occurred in the 1980s and no one's heard from her for about 15 years now.

    My husband’s father disowned his daughter. When she was in her 30’s she stole about 50 grand from his bank account. He was in the Army overseas and she took all the savings. They ended up losing their barber shop, house, and Mercedes. He was so hurt and mad he refused to talk to her and wouldn’t be around her.

      I had similar problems at a young age, (autism etc) but mainly because I was being physically bullied and abused in school by a teacher and other classmate. Teenage years were the worst, but I’m in a way better place. Depression, rebellion, suicidal threats etc almost got to the point of never getting better. Been 6 years on and it’s so much better. I socialise and meet with people I know at least once a month and currently have a huge crush on a girl I met through my social events. Planning on a date with her soon.

    I don't know if anyone cares to hear my story but I kind of have a similar situation with my daughter. She actually disowned me in her early teens after years of her father carefully brainwashing her into thinking I'm a horrible mother/person. She's refused to speak to me for about 5 years. Its felt like decades though. I've tried in those 5 years to be in touch with her but it got to the point after a while that I gave up because she just refuses to talk to me except on two occasions when she wanted to rant to me about how horrible I am. I wasn't perfect, who is, but I tried hard to give her and her sister the best love and care possible. I put them first before everything and everyone including myself and they were in my every thought always. I think at this point after all the verbal abuse and her absence from my life I no longer know her in order to love her (she's an adult and so different) but I miss the younger her terribly and wish I could go back in time to try and change things.

    And for people who thinks strict Asian parents are normal, tell me why did my mom shove a butcher knife to my throat for having a bad grade? Or how they’ll toss me around after I wet myself for being terrified of them.

Shoveled snow and mowed lawns - and it was never enough. I then met my now husband two years later and he was an aviation mechanic and was going to move to NJ to start a life with me, from California. My now husband would hear how they would get violent with me and talk to me on the phone, and my husband thought it would be safer for me to move out west with him. When I told my sister and father this, they got even more violent and abusive and my father disowned me. My husband flew in to pick me up, and we drove across country with my yellow lab (*and I had what little stuff I had left after my divorce - because my ex husband got everything...) shipped out. My father said he never wanted to see me again because he accuse me of abandoning him, and then three months later when I had become pregnant, he practically kissed my ass and wanted me to move back and I told him not anytime soon. Keep in mind my father was abused by his dominant Italian mother, AND he had combat related PTSD as a Vietnam Vet. My sister (*who had never married nor had kids...) was like Kathy Bates from Misery and her and my father would violently fight all the time - to the point where I had to threaten to call the police on them, to get them to calm down. I miscarried and two weeks later my father died. I flew from California to NJ and when I arrived, my family snubbed me and prevented me from seeing the will, etc So instead of getting a lawyer and wasting money to see the will to see if I was screwed out of anything, etc. I just left to go back to California (*and we later moved to AZ...) because I realized after my father died, my family wanted nothing to do with me, and I haven't seen them in over three years...

      Can I suggest something you’ve prob already thought of? “Fake it til you make it” is all fine, but don’t go overboard with false displays of love. Children have the best BS detectors and it might cause more hurt for her, or she might resent you. I think your case might be one of the few when it’s better, at least for a while, to be a friend rather than a parent. Or perhaps, be more like a sister.
      But please don’t be so hard on yourself. You went through something horrific. And I partly include the birth in that statement. I’d guess nobody prepared you for what it would be like, and you had zero people to assist you, at the birth or when she was a baby.
      You are still very young, and you’ve dealt with stuff that would hurt and confuse a forty year old.
      A friend of mine had such a hard time birthing one of her sons she went into shock, and she really felt no bond with him for the first few days. But she had a loving husband, and caring hospital staff, which you didn’t. Even after she brought him home she struggled for a little while, but no they have a very close relationship.

    I disowned my mother and her family. She hoarded animals and blamed the filthy house on me. It was too much to ask one teenager to clean up after 35 cats by herself. It all boiled over when I tried to get help for a kitten and she told me not to take it to the vet. It'd be too embarrassing for her. I stuffed the kitten and my favorite cat into a backpack and bussed to my dad's job (complete opposite side of the city). Needless to say, he was more than surprised when I showed up with two sick cats. He took me to his house and then we went to an emergency vet to get the cats taken care of. My cat was too sick to save at it absolutely broke me to lose him. The kitten was going to be alright with strong antibiotics.
    After my mom got home from work, she called my dad, worried that I wasn't home. He told her what happened and she lost her mind. She told me to bring the cats home or she'd never talk to me again. I just told her goodbye and hung up. I sent her an email a few weeks later that the door was still open if she wanted to talk.

He'd feel up my mom, and, according to my older cousin, practice all sorts of weird demonic witchcraft and shit and force them to participate. My younger cousin is his and inherited his name and was rather young when his father left. I can't tell you the exact details of what happened but he just left. Since then he has never tried to contact his son, crossdresses, still does witchcraft, and is married to another man (found all that out last year).
    The second time was when my aunt disowned my older cousin for a time because he always got in trouble with the cops and drank and did drugs. He was sent to live with his dad for a while, which only worsened things. But years pass and he returned a lot better, until it was discovered he had a drinking problem. Right now, he has his own place, actively hangs out with his younger half brother, gotten a new job and has mostly patched things up with my aunt. Which isn't too hard, my aunt is a loving person and loves her boys. My dad will get calls from both from time to time. He's essentially the father figure for my younger cousin, giving him advice and talking him up.

      Don’t know what witchcrafts got to do with it.

    Wouldn't say disowned, but I do know my mother stopped loving me, slowly as I stopped being academically successful, which was third grade. I'm 28 and managed to acquire a decent, relevant, and broad skillset with machines and make decent money (I essentially pay for the utilities and can afford a good amount of luxuries), but it doesn't matter because she can't brag to her friends I graduated with top honors from a popular university.
    At this point, I'm just an asset. The only reason she can't outright disown me is because she never bothered to improve herself, so has to rely on me for a number of things to survive. If I leave, she's essentially losing her job in a year, and has to explain to everybody why I died in the streets (and gods forbid people talk about her. Its one of her greatest fears).
    All in all, we stopped being family, and just kinda devolved into two people using each other for our own benefit.
