No child even thinks that if they even get a sibling, that would mean they are going to be erased from existence in their parents’ minds. Quite the contrary, getting a sibling should be fun and exciting, not something any child should ever fear.
Unfortunately, some families are just so dysfunctional that children actually find themselves being cut off from their parents for no real reason.
Take the family in the story below as an example. After the dad married his new wife, it became clear to his two daughters that their family would never be the same. At first, it was only apparent because their new stepmom wanted nothing to do with them, but when a new sibling was brought into the family, everything completely shifted.
After the stepmom had a child with the daughters’ dad, she decided to completely cut of the two daughters from her life. Instead of stopping her and standing up for his family, the dad actually followed her lead. He kicked his younger daughter out of the house and cut both of them from his will.
Now the two daughters are left with no parents, and they are worried about their future…
