Welcome back to internet frenzy. We got a very special episode today. I'm seriously so excited. I've been looking forward to this only
We have the famous Aunt Linda's son and daughter-in-law with us
Let's go let's freaking go brownies aunt Linda
That's my mother
Oh
I was not there
Would have been a party wasn't that oh, yeah, that was a fake one. So yeah, absolutely
No, not his actual mom she she wouldn't she would also shoot
You know the best thing about that story was the family union was going on
Wow, we were doing when I were doing it
Hold up. Is that Linda Linda?
Are you lit AF right now at the B13?
Stoke to have you guys the theme for this week is
Manipulation at its finest so all four of our stories are gonna be about manipulation in some form
See if you can spot the fake and we're gonna jump right in the title is manipulative and selfish family member
I want to get everyone's take on this because I kind of don't know what to do and no one else that I talked to you
Knows how to go about life with this family member. Hello. Well, so my brother will call him Jake
Decided to plan a family trip five months in advance to go to New York to and visit family
He got his tax returns. So of course he had to splurge
He bought him his wife and seven children all tickets to a cruise then bought plane tickets to New York
Was supposed to get an Airbnb but ran out of money
So my mom agreed to let them stay in her two bedroom apartment by the city last minute
My mom had gotten back from the cruise and caught COVID strep and another contagious illness
She should have told him not to come but she tried telling him that she was sick and he got angry and started saying that she got sick on purpose
She felt bad and let him stay anyway. She bought him and his family groceries air mattresses to sleep on and Pampers for their three-year-old son
My mom discloses and I told him before he even got there
Mommy does not want you smoking in the house if you want to smoke do it outside
I'm an I'm an avid pothead and I'm telling him that he says he's okay
I won't smoke he gets there and within two days
My mom calls me with a laundry list of problems his kids pee on the couches blankets and pillows
Because they were so glued to their electronics
His wife doesn't take care of their kids nor teaches them how to take care of themselves
His wife was forced to take her own daughter to urgent care because she had gotten her period and didn't know how to take care of herself
Or tell anyone so she just didn't change or clean herself up and ended up getting a nasty infection. Oh shit now
He himself had three people by him groceries all for him to say no one helped me and no one cared about me
He smoked in the house and made the whole building's fire alarm go off and two fire trucks came to the building
He then has the nerve to call my father who has type 2 diabetes and isn't doing well. He has his arm in his splint
He's limping because of his diabetes and he's extremely skinny
My brother is expecting my father to take care of him his wife his seven children and his dog
Mind you my father is on social security and only gets $1,000 a month
So my brother decides to call me to cry to me about how much of a victim he is and how he couldn't take the mistreatment
So my dad apparently had to go and rescue him
He called my dad to pick him up because he couldn't handle people telling him how irresponsible and disgusting he is and
My dad's girlfriend is trying to take care of her mom who just recently got a dialysis
Mind you my brother was around my mom and sister who were extremely sick with COVID strep and pink eye
Tell me how you guys would go about this
Because at this point I'm still upset and frustrated with my own brother. Oh
They're just living in their own
Oh, is there just poop everywhere? Oh
What
I don't know I couldn't really follow there was so much
drop a nuke
They did on the couches
The kids are so addicted to electronics that they just pissed all over the couch like just like raging out on blippy
It's probably yeah
Parents are gonna be manipulated and he's calling her trying to manipulate her to get help and like feel bad for me
Yeah, the like sounds just like
Bro you
Well, I think the youngest is three so three and up
Seven of them so this dude's like mid-40s one of them's old enough to have her period right? Oh, yeah
So there's a wide range how to period and Peter saw from the couch
Yeah, oh 15 oh
What's the next step here I feel like as the mom of this son
The responsible thing to do is get those kids away from him or
Call CPS like what yeah, I can't imagine what their house looks like like their home
Well mom's home mom's two bedroom apartment in New York
a couple and
seven children we're gonna go to but then she got COVID and strep and
I don't need her like those are your grandkids. I know that's your child, but those are your grandkids
I feel like I would be so protective over them at that point. Well, she was like probably almost not if they're
defecations
But not saying she needs to take them in but I would definitely report
the son
Seven kids just to the orphanage well, they would learn manners they would learn normal human
behavior
I wonder how much money they go through just like hospital bills
Do they go to the hospital pick up their poop in their house? Oh, I don't
This gave me anxiety
Where's the wife the mom well it said she was she was there. Oh, yeah
So there was a comment and said oh my goodness. I can't believe what I just read about your brother
I'm sorry. I don't have any advice at this moment. This is just horrible your poor parents the poor kids
They're being raised just like him and then like the author said I was hoping for advice
I'm just not like even surprised at this point. He just gusted cuz this isn't just the first time
He's done the same thing to me when I was pregnant
Constantly picking fights with me getting people to gang up on me and take his side then demanding an apology from me and making other
People tried to make me apologize had me taking care of his kids when I was pregnant with a broken arm
My gosh, mind you but yet
Tell us
Well, it's pregnant, but yet he refused to physically help me with any basic activities
I'm just so angry. He's doing the same thing over and over again, but then wants to play victim all the time
And it's like my poor nephews, especially the oldest one takes on
So much responsibility and discipline because my brother most definitely has his favorite
Okay, but like low key this guy is being totally enabled to be an asshole. Yes
The fact that no one from beginning with mom and dad up into like sister like yes
He has sympathy for her, but like no one has been like turn around and walk away. Yes
You're out of our lives. Yes, and we're calling CPS and rescuing your kids like those poor kids. Yeah, that's really sad
Like the fact that mom pondered her daughter off to the urgent care
You know what I mean to teach her about her period like YouTube. Yeah, I don't know
You know we can do this together rather than get in the car and go to urgent care and like
Hey, can you tell her I can imagine a stranger teaching me that like in a
You know
Like why saying
No, um sister is writing the story
Yes, yeah, yeah, and you know the guy did not ask her dad
To like have a blessing to marry her
You know that
Like the guy that sucks at being a dad
Didn't ask like his wife he didn't go to his father-in-law and ask like hey, can I marry your daughter?
Oh, cuz father and I would have been like no
They had seven kids by the time they were like 17
Oh
Dude, that's so sad though. I feel for those kids
That was that was very behold manipulative mess
That is literal dudes like
Just got off the phone with my mom
I wanted to be a good son and remind her that I love her and I'm here for her if she needs me for anything
She's recovering from COVID and is feeling a lot better
We had a lovely short chat until she pulls her signature move out move of turning everything into a pity party about her for whatever
Unreasonable and random reason she decides to pull out of her ass
She brought up seven year old problems that we had previously already solved a long time ago
She opened up old wounds and poured salt in them all to appease her need for constant reassurance and attention
Even after I literally just finished giving her attention and reassurance
Which was my entire point for calling in the first place and her mind
She always needs to be the victim for one reason or another
She's emotionally manipulative and she never takes responsibility for own faults and mistakes
I dealt with her calmly reasonably and level headed as possible. It was hard
I told her I disagree with your version of the story, but that's not relevant anymore
She persisted ranting and venting and she finally changed the topic and we ended the phone call
I need advice on how to deal with it in the following ways
So as when I'm talking to her and she's behaving this way
So what's an advice?
Don't talk to her send a card. Oh
That's so hard it's so hard to navigate because you feel like you see it clearly
You understand like why they are the way they are in some sense. You give them like that grace
But when it's affecting your mental health, it's really hard to be like I
See what you're doing. This is not healthy. This is not acceptable. I'm not gonna be treated like this
Like please see where I'm coming from
But people like that they're so set in their ways and old
And it's like how do you get them to see it clearly?
if you know
To anticipate that
It is then your choice
You're putting yourself in that position
So if it's important to you to let your mom know that you love her write a card
Yeah, it does suck though because it's like I want to talk to my you know, he wants to talk to his mom
Yeah, but then but that so then he needs to do more work on his end. Yeah to build up that strength of the wall
So it doesn't affect you. Yeah
Yeah, well mom needs therapy first. Yes mom needs help you can't wait for mom to change
No, but you can also tell mom
I'm sure he has
That's what I think that's just what in a frenzy is
conclusion always is everybody in the freaking world needs therapy
Shout out shout out better help sponsor us
Honestly though actually
But really therapy therapy for the win. Yes mom needs therapy bad kid needs therapy to protect his little heart and
Unfortunately like there's really not much you can do to improve the situation because there's like the half that is the work
That mom would have to do to improve it all you can really focus on is yourself and like what are you gonna expose yourself to?
Yes, and stopping that like generational like
What's the right word pattern?
stop that with you it ends with you and
You are not gonna do that to your kids or anyone for that matter any
Relationship you have with someone
It's so hard being friends with people that like always make it about themselves or they're always the victim
So I know that's his mom and like he needs obviously you can choose different friends and things like that
You can't really choose a different mom, but like you said
You got to distance yourself from that like heartbreak a little bit
So if that means writing a card rather than a phone call this guy sounds really intelligent
So part of me even wonders that this is so much about how to talk to his mom as it is more like a call for just like
Just some love on his end. I think he just needs some love
It's sad
How'd we go sad because I know
Well, we can make it sadder with part B. You can tell this guy
I love his mom. He loves her. He doesn't want to just like
He's just yearning for this relationship
But the reality is is it's not going to change at least not on the timeline that he probably wants
Yep, and so I think he just needs a big hug and to write cards. Yeah some stationary and a big hug
You want to hear part B now?
What's your address?
I need advice on how to deal with this part B when I'm left with my thoughts afterwards
And the years of trauma. She's put me through being emotionally manipulative my whole life begin to plague my mind
Plague his mind. You okay bud? Wow with a period at the end and then thank you period
What are some comments and people like giving him love how many comments are there more than two
There is
Oh slick lol says I'm going
Says I'm gonna keep it simple you get what you allow my parents have always played the victim card when I was growing up as I got older
I stopped letting them. I just shut it down and and the conversation
Maybe I'm a bad son. Maybe I'm not understanding, but I believe it serves no one to entertain that
Valid slick
And then description obvious 40 said my mom mom you gotta say it with an accent now
MUM
No, and then he goes on it
What
No, I'm trying to find like a really good one
Okay
Mommy description obvious 40 says
My mom is emotionally
Manipulative in every conversation I have my mom
I have with her leads to her crying about how hard her life is and how everyone has been so mean to her
I stopped having conversations with her. I haven't spoken to her in more than a year and she never met her third-grandchild
Okay, see that's even more sad
Yeah, if you completely block them out of your life, then it's like that serves no one
Mom me mom
Linda mummy
No, but like at that point it's like
Yes, your mom's manipulative some but like your grandkid needs to know grandma. Yeah, you know what I mean, but
Unless she's that crazy. Okay. Sure. Maybe not. That's sad
It's sad because the mom probably will never go to therapy he can though and
He can stop that pattern now and it's he's very much aware of it, which is great. Yeah, yeah as far as point B goes I'd say
Let those feelings exist. Don't rush out of them because that really does suck. Yeah, but life goes on and
You can start a new yes, but better relationships find a new monster
Anyone want to be my
I
Love it
Before I start this story, I want to do a trigger warning. This is involving essay of a minor
Here we go
Am I the asshole for wanting to take my four-day old baby away from her dad without saying anything to him like leave when he's sleeping
I just gave birth four days ago to a beautiful baby girl. I'm 29
My husband's 30 right after we were discharged and got home three nights ago
My husband got a call from his father and next thing I know my husband is losing it
He's on the phone for like 45 minutes just flipping out crying snotting yelling. I'm trying to figure out what's wrong
And he's ignoring me. He goes and gets himself a six-pack. He finally opens up to me about what's going on
Apparently his brother. I think 27. I've only met him twice because he lives with their dad out of state
He's just got arrested for kidnapping photos of minor children and having sexual relations with a young girl a week ago
He wouldn't tell me how old she was kept dodging the question. He's been a mess since then
He has barely held our daughter and when he does he's just crying. He's not helping me at all
He's just completely shut down. I'm trying to be understanding
But I don't know the depth of what's actually happening at this point because he's not really communicating with me
Well, his mom showed up here at 8 a.m. This morning and woke us all up
He apparently invited her here to talk about what they're going to do
I kind of snapped at one point because I'm asking what's going on and they are straight up ignoring me
So I snapped and said will someone tell me what the is going on right now
And like his mom brought up the article of the arrest and it says minor girl aged 12 to 13
She was 12 when it started and is 13 now
So I kind of just clammed up because I'm in shock. I think well him and his mom start talking about getting this guy
A good lawyer because apparently there was evidence in text
Showing that they were actively in a relationship and she knew what she was doing
They start searching for lawyers right then and there and they start making phone calls to get quotes
Well, my husband just spoke to some lawyer for a free quote and gave the rundown on the situation to this guy and
My husband was like blamed the girl basically
Yeah, it's f'd up because this girl knew what she was f'ing doing
So she just as much to blame here if not more
I immediately felt sick to my stomach and just went to the bedroom with our daughter and kind of hit out
I guess but him and his mom just came in here and asked me if I would pay for the lawyer
Apparently the guy he was just on the phone with quoted him 12k
I have 26k and fun money
No real purpose, but I've been saving over the past year. They also said he will need to be bonded out
I guess he was seen this morning at 9 a.m. Which is why my mother-in-law came over today and his bond is 10k
100k technically, but I guess you only have to pay 10%
I'm so confused. This is just what they were telling me. I think there was a longer process
This is all happening so fast. I don't want to pay for a lawyer. I don't want to pay this guy's bond
I don't want to be around my husband. He was blaming the girl
I don't want to be around him when he's an emotional train wreck and having no help with our daughter because he's so f'd up in the head right now
I don't know if I should wait it out and give him a chance to think more clearly before I jump ship and run for the hills
But everything in my body right now is screaming at me to run. I told him I didn't want to pay for the lawyer or bond
He said he understood and I think he's trying to guilt me because every time I leave a room
He follows five minutes later
Balling his eyes out on the phone with someone saying he's never going to see his brother again
And trying to figure out how he's gonna come up with the money
I need to figure something out. He needs that lawyer and I don't have the money
Or taking tissues from the bathroom and standing in the living room where I am to blow his nose super loud
It fills manipulative am I the asshole for wanting to run without telling him and take the baby?
I don't know what to do here
One
Crazy my brother my poor perverted brother
No, absolutely not. No. No, your brother is a dummy
Brother needs to learn his lessons
My thoughts exactly dumb ass your brother is an idiot. Yes, bro. Like this let him own his his shoes
Yes, I think he did what he did and they found pictures evidence of your brother's an idiot. Sorry little girls
I definitely think husband's having a mental breakdown because he's trying to process so
Much at once. Yeah, and like your first call like if you're really close to your family member and I'm sure it's a shock
Like your first and reactive love like okay, I'll help them back at the end of the day. No, let brother learn his lesson. Yes
Disgusting human being yes, let him learn not in prison
I'm really glad you brought that up because in the story like later on like the updates and stuff
She does talk about the reason why he's so upset is because growing up
He was physically abused and the brother just had to watch because he couldn't help like he was
Defenseless he couldn't like save his little brother. So I feel like that plays a role in why he felt like he needs to save him
That's heartbreaking. Yeah. Yeah, so
I'm glad you did bring that up
however
There are consequences to your actions and those types of actions are
Unexcuseable. Is that the right word? Yes. Yes
And so deliberate and it's unacceptable and excusable. It's like you're talking about a 12 year old
Like I'm just trying to put myself in this position. I can't relate at all
Like in terms of like if my family member were to do something like this
My reaction is like I am I would never in a million years give you bond money
Like I'm sorry that this is like such a wild ass
thing that
You did like you are going to jail. You're gonna get everything that's coming to you. Yep, but I love you
I would process in therapy later. Yeah. No, like yes
Still let oh, maybe not as much that would really affect me deeply. I love you less
To try to how would you let them around?
Yeah, you can never let you can never allow them around your child your relationship with them is forever
Let me ask this question. Yeah
The younger brother the one that is the one that screwed up. He's the one that was physically abused
Yes, that definitely probably that adds to this situation because obviously he's already
Was it physically abused or sexually abused? Um, as far as this it was physically. Okay. Yeah, I mean, obviously that messes with you
So he's got tons of issues. So like as an older brother
You know, your your little brother deals with that and you know, that's a struggle that that kid has but it's like
Like you said you made that choice regardless of what trauma you have. It's not okay. You have to deal with the consequence
You and you can't it's she's 12 or 13 and you're trying to say she was down
Could you I'm sorry about that part. He's like, oh it's her fault. Well, the mom was like, no, we have proof
Yeah, what's the mom doing here? She said it was all right
The mom fighting her son get abused. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. She already let him get abused. She didn't save me from that
Maybe she did maybe she didn't we don't know that
Massively, but let's say he let's say he did she did if she's like saying like trying to just
I feel like it would make sense if this mom's trying to justify and excuse his actions
It's probably coming from a lot of guilt within herself. So where is that guilt coming from? Yes?
Because she didn't stand up
I I really like that point a lot. Yep. That's a good point. It's tough. It's it is
Legal it is it is against the law
So there's that boundary that like it's an absolute no-go
It's so far across that line. It's like, I don't know. I just have a hard time with any like
Any thoughts around how it's
Okay, or understandable if that
Lot is that the for mental health and people who go through things that cause reactions and behaviors
However, there comes a point where you are responsible for recognizing the shit you've been through
Yes, and for healing from that and taking do making the right choices to not repeat those same behaviors and push them upon someone else
Yes
Think about some other helpful
20-7. Yes, 27. You're old enough to have taken responsibility for what you've gone through
Yes, twice or even twice. And know that that's not okay. And
And then if you do it go to jail
Think about the damage he just put on that little girl now
That damage that trauma that little girl will never be the same. Yeah, it's unforgivable. Truly like
Yeah, so it doesn't have a follow-up of like an update of that just yet
But it does talk about like the some of the charges he's being charged with because
There were some people being like there's no way this is real blah blah and she's like combating all of that
Basically, some people are saying like do not give them any money and she's absolutely not. I'm not so one said a comment said
This is just walk away Renee. Shout out
Also, I have a brother that's a predator if they have solid evidence that the guy messed with a 12 year old
He's going away for a while. Anyway, whether you pay for an attorney or not
He might as well sit in a county lockup and get credit for time served
Which county lockup is obviously much safer than being in person anyway. So and then
Um, this person said so he took her across state lines
Doesn't that make it a federal case? Yeah, I guess he's looking at like 29 years for all the charges combined because he brought her outside of
state lines and everything and then the next person said so he took her across state lines doesn't that make it a federal case?
The feds don't mess around put your money in a safety deposit box and get out of there now
And then this person said yes, it makes it into federal sex trafficking of a minor
The same charges that Matt gets. I don't know how to say his name gates handedly dodged somehow
So like there is a possibility he could like get out of this if he gets a good lawyer
and that's like
Actually more common than like than what's talked about
It's sad and screw the lawyers for wanting to defend people like that. I I have a hard time with that too. What defense lawyers?
What they make a lot of money. That's why yeah, dude
I actually was sorry side note
If they're really good, they make a lot of money your average criminal defense attorney like doesn't make that good of money because criminals are not
Rich, where's the money come from? You have to do a lot of cases
Yeah, or unless you're really good. Like yeah very high right like oj simpson. Yeah
All right, let's read. Let's get it. This one comes from true off my chest
I faked being sick to stop my parents from divorcing
I 24m had felt guilty about something for a long time when I was 14
My parents were on the verge of divorce. They couldn't go a day without arguing and I overheard them talk about splitting up
I'm an only child and truly could not comprehend them going separate ways
I was terrified. So I tried to take matters into my own hands. I faked being sick
I started telling them I had terrible headaches dizziness and weird pains behind my eyes
Much to my surprise instead of yelling at each other. They were suddenly so focused on me
They started running me to doctor's appointments and trying to figure out what was wrong
The fights completely stopped. I felt terrible about lying, but I loved how they were finally getting along
For two or three months. We bounced from doctor to doctor trying to figure out what was wrong with me
I had blood tests scans you name it, but no one could find anything because wait for it
There was nothing to find
Every time a specialist couldn't figure out what was wrong. My parents got more stressed
But it also seemed to bring them closer like they were a team again
Honestly, it was exhausting, but I didn't know how to back out of it at that point
Here's where it gets ridiculous
My mom who was already a little bit into alternative medicine started buying various essential oils to address my symptoms
She was convinced they were helping me heal. So I just played along as my parents relationship seemed to mend
I started easing up on my sickness and well my parents never divorced
But now my mom genuinely believes the essential oils were what cured me
Flash forward 10 years I'm 24 now and my parents are still together, but my mom is obsessed with essential oils
She's not just a fan. She's full on convinced they can fix everything got a cold eucalyptus stressed
Lavender bad wi-fi probably needs some peppermint
She even carries a pouch of them in her purse just in case anyone needs an oil based miracle
I know it's kind of ridiculous, but I can't bring myself to tell her the truth
Every time she goes on about how essential oils saved our family. I have to bite my tongue
I definitely feel guilty about lying, but there are worse side effects than being stuck in a house
It smells like a botanical garden 24 seven
So maybe this is the wrong thread for this, but should I tell my parents or should I let my mom keep believing in her doterra fairy tales?
Yeah
Let it ride, baby
You you you play god you straight up said i'm god
You are my child
Ta-da
saved
Good job
As a 14 year old you're freaking genius and there's 20 10 years later. They are literally still together
There's always a moment though where you're all right where I feel like every family has like that that story that was just like
Could you believe it and then someone's like hey actually?
Oh, yes
This is one of those. That's freaking awesome. I'm weight though
Don't even say it. Don't even tell them wait till he's 50 and then no not even then
Wait till one of them goes into the casket and then you're like mom get this
You thought you and dad were good. Let me tell you why
Yeah, 40 years ago me also your oils are shit
Your oils started to make me get sick
Yeah
No, it would have to be that the like that the mom dies and then he tells the dad like you can't tell the mom
Like she will just like her whole identity is just her life is
You know how much money she has spent on these oils?
How much money they spent on the medical pills all the tests they were running all the scans he run them up
for them to stay like
They couldn't afford the divorce attorney
Exactly
Hey money work they're still paying off the CAT scan
But it worked baby
That's why they stayed together
Yeah, although they couldn't afford it at that point. What I like want to try and like
Create a scenario like what if she did tell them? Yes, right?
Like let her parents be like wow
We really weren't like in the perfect role
They feel like we really just need to be focused on our child because it tells me like maybe they weren't
Yeah
Your kid gets a little bit easier to raise because she's the only one so she's probably all enough to take care of herself
So then their parents started doing their own things and then they grew apart
Right and they decided they wanted to get a divorce and this daughter's like hello. I'm still here
Yeah, so they came together where they should be always
You know, that's true. You're welcome. Yes. I don't know at the parent. I'd feel like an idiot
Yeah, the last thing I do is get mad is get mad at my child. I'd be like, whoa
I'm so glad we're still together like this. Yeah, I mean look at all the memories that come since
Do you think them? Is it a boy or girl? It's he's male. Oh, okay
So this son, but he says 24 and oh, okay, so this son
Going let's say he tells the parents mom and dad
I lied. I was never sick. There was never any problems
I saw that you guys were struggling and you were gonna get a divorce and I was absolutely terrified and I didn't want to lose my family over it
So I faked it
Do you think that
truth
Coming out would end in them
Getting a divorce
No
They're actually in a good spot. Yeah, okay. No way
It's been too long. Okay, but it is interesting to think like what would be the consequences of him telling them
Yeah, so what does he have to lose then if they're not gonna get a divorce?
But they could be like
Well, it's dismantling her whole identity at this point. Yeah, she literally she's like so invested in these essential oils
And now it's like it's saved my family. It saved my life. Blah blah blah. It's like I feel like that'd be like
Yeah, I don't know her fault is the mom
I can understand where like this boy this man is coming from but I take it rid of the guilt
Yeah, yeah, like it's like what Tanner said you play god like you say that weird good things tell your friends he gets lit
I did
I'll be telling everyone at parties like bro, and I was 14 right listen to this
You were doing drugs. I was I was saving there like 10 years later, bro. Like you should stop worrying about it by now
Yeah, I yeah for me. I'd be just like I would be thinking about it all the time
Yeah, I really would be so proud of yourself. I'd be like dude feeling guilty biggest biggest fleece job of all time
Have you ever kept anything from your parents?
Um, oh many things. Have you?
I mean like to yourself
Does it plague you? Yeah, not something like that that impacts both of them so much
