Ensnared by evil …. this expression of yours literally made me put down my coffee to take a breath… it’s such a fitting description of how my siblings have exploited my emotions and commitment to caring for their children, especially when their marriages broke down ; I could be depended upon to drive over weekends, school holidays , ‘auntie rill tske u out ‘ etc etc … but their was the undercurrent of what turned out yo be a vicious envy , so that they also told the most slanderous lies to get their children to ignore as they got older … lesson learnt , if your siblings are nasty to u, keep away from the children they seek to control .
