Is this allowed to happen or what?

Question

Me and my parents haven't been getting along for ages now, but it's recently gone worse. Now they are forcing my sisters and brothers to have no contact with me whatsoever...no talking to me, no looking at me, no going anywhere with me etc, even though we live in the same house. They are all younger than me. Are my parents allowed to do that or is it illegal? They also treat me like I'm not part of the family anymore.

Answer 1

you might wanna get a social worker to visit or something...

Answer 2

No, that sounds fair enough. You must have been very naughty.

Answer 3

Wow.  They sound like a couple of winners.  Some people have no right being parents.  Since you aren't getting along with them they are trying to turn your siblings against you to get them on your parents side.  That is horrible.  They shouldn't involve your siblings.  It is hard because you all live in the same house.  Your parents can do whatever they want even if it is unfair.  Too bad you can't move out.  I would just see if you can work out your differences or just ignore them.  They are not being good parents at all.  My mom was a horrible parent.  I am married and in my 30s so it is easy for me to not talk to her anymore.  It has been three years and I don't miss her.  My dad died this year but before he died she would not allow him to see me.  I can't forgive her for that.  I was always treated like the red headed step child.  I was never good enough.  My brother and sister were perfect in her eyes but I was always messing up.  

Answer 4

depends on your age it could be a matter for child services

Answer 5

Why would they do that? I suggest you talk to a family member to get out of that environment.You dont deserve that.

Answer 6

doesn't sound like anything illegal is taking place.  they're not physically abusing you or holding you in the house against your will.  u just have some ugly parents.  No Offense.

Answer 7

You must have done sometthing terrible. Parents feel horrible when theyre kids do something. I've seen parents, they cry themselves to sleep and are totally heart borken as theyre lives revolve around their kids. So yeah fair enough. I dont see anything wrong in your punishment.

You better be good now or no gifts from santa for you this year!!

Answer 8

I can't think what you have done wrong to warrant such treatment, no one should be alienated in such a way. If you are under 18 that could be seen as child abuse, emotional & physcological abuse, that is a crime.

If you are not happy at home, is there anywhere else you can live, your aunties or uncles house or with your grand parents. You shouldn't be treated like this no matter what you have or haven't done. Your parents should be practising un-conditional love instead of acting as childishly as they are.

Good luck. X ;-)

Answer 9

If i was you i would move out and move on, they sound very mean, duznt matter what you did they shouldn't be like that to their own child

Answer 10

Bad Parenting idea...

Answer 11

Alot of info not stated... We would probably understand better what started to row in the first place... But still that is pretty stuffed up that your parents are isolating you from the rest of the family.. Your parents have every right to behave like this whatever it was you had done in the first place they're afraid you might pass it on to the rest of the children... Sorry hun but that's the reality.. Move out and get on with your life... Your mother will always worry about you when you're gone, and things will hopefully get better from there..
