You are right. No matter what others tell you here, YOU STAND BY YOUR PRINCIPLES. What you believe to be wrong is wrong and no amount of goading is going to make it alright. Your mom sounds like a narcissistic a**hole and your brother is spoilt by her. Don't go down to their level. If you are going to shut them out of your life two years later, you can at least know that you were always the good person and they deserve to be out of your life.

Turning the other cheek just gets you another slap.

Go to the police and make a report.

Better yet, she can sue her brother and parents in small claims court. Victory over the $150 will feel so good when her parents refuse to help pay for college and kick them out at 18. It's way more important to keep it real.

There's no need to resent them. And bugger the forgiveness and understanding. What's more to understand than her brother is a thieving piece of shit, her mum is a narcissist and her dad has no spine.

If she shuts those arseholes out of her life then she won't be thinking about them.

It should be said repeatedly forgiving toxic people is poisonous to oneself.

Fuck that. You have no obligation to other people.

"Forgiveness" is the skeleton key abusers use to keep getting back in.

Exactly, at the end of your days all you have are your principles.
