Funny how bold people get when it’s your life on the line.
Suddenly, relatives who’ve never walked in your shoes feel entitled to lecture you:
“Be reasonable.”
“Don’t make waves.”
“Think of the family.”
But let’s get real: if the same thing were happening to them or to their children, they’d flip their tune instantly.
They wouldn’t be preaching patience — they’d be screaming for justice.
They wouldn’t be asking for compromise — they’d be demanding every last ounce of fairness.
They wouldn’t be telling anyone to “just accept it” — they’d be lawyering up, raging, and protecting what’s theirs.
That’s the hypocrisy.
One standard for you, another for themselves.
And the truth is, their demands aren’t about “what’s right.”
They’re about keeping things quiet, tidy, convenient for them.
Here’s the wake-up call:
You don’t owe obedience to family hypocrisy.
You don’t have to accept advice from people who would never live by their own rules.
When divorce strips away the mask, you finally see who stands in truth — and who hides behind double standards.
