What would you do?

To me this relates to family philosophy. Please let me know your opinions.


  • New family MUST take priority

    If the husband takes sides, it should be with the wife or he has betrayed her!

  • you said physical!

    When a man takes a wife, they become yoked together and are now one body and flesh. This means the sister assualt you BOTH! Charge with said crime and also forgive her for it. Forgiveness does NOT mean give back her priviledges, but to accept her consequence for her bad actions. A marriage makes a new family, the nuclear family is new and hold first place in the man and wifes heart. He can attempt to work out the issues, with the former nuclear family. Remember though, that the Husbands new family takes TOP priority now.

  • in the end...

    no matter what you should never abandon your family…now if one of your siblings is abusive then you should try to help out the one they are abusing but also help them…never turn your back on your family, in the end they are all you have!

    If a man’s family runs down his wife, disrespects her wishes for her child, and makes false accuations against her, should the man still associate with his family?

    Or, if a man’s sister is physically violent with his wife when she is pregnant, should he still associate with his sister?

    Does this make him an accessory and should she feel betrayed?

  • Forgiveness is not accepting what's wrong

    I have a feeling you already know what is right. Blood may be thicker than water in some cases, but that's only when the family is actually worth more than any trouble they're doing. I love my family more than anything--and have been there for them through things I would not put up with from anyone else--but I can't stand when people pretend that just because you're related someone you have to stand by them forever. Blood is just coincidence. People who are blood related can be sex offenders, murderers, or shitty people.

    Like I said, I've been there through some of my blood's REALLY messed up things. But I've also stopped talking to some of them for their heinous offenses. A couple have turned around their ways and are now back in my life. The most you can do is be willing to forgive and give them chances at CHANGING. You don't have to take whatever they shove down your throat anymore than they're taking what YOU want...which they're obviously not doing. It's a sad situation, but let them know what's what.
