Everything I read tells me that I was given my role as the family blacksheep. That it serves a function in dysfunctional family systems.
No my dad isn’t worshipped. He’s periodically worshipping random people or distant relatives whom he perceives to be somehow special.

No these people are family, they are my nephew’s in-laws. But they aren’t immediate family so some stuff some people post aren’t for their ears. Uncomfortable. Like he wants to argue with me and my brother or something and includes other people. Sometimes he includes some other people. Random.

I’d not say I am lucky. It’s dysfunction and craziness. How do I respond depends on what’s about. I often don’t respond at all depends on level of insanity of what’s being shared. Most of the time it’s too insane to even explain to people
