My brother Jack has a 15 yo daughter named Joy, recently he got married to Anna who has a 16 yo son named Lee. They live in a 2 bedroom house.
The second room previously belonged to Joy but once they got married she had to share with Lee, after a while Anna convinced Jack to let Joy’s mom get custody because the room situation was uncomfortable and Lee didn’t have a dad to go to. Slowly they took the bedroom away from Joy and reduced the custody to every other weekend.
Joy’s mom is abusive and I would never let Joy go there so instead of living with her mom she moved in with me. Needless to say she was devastated that her family basically kicked her out. She is currently in therapy
Because of her situation my siblings and I have been pretty much spoiling her, showering her with gifts and taking her to multiple trips. A few days ago Jack called to tell me that Lee is feeling left out and asked if we could include him sometimes because he has no family to do these things for him.
I got so angry I told him that I don’t give a shit that Lee is feeling left out, he is not my brother and therefore Lee is not my nephew and he still doesn’t have a family to do these things for him, nothing has changed, we will never be his family. He called me an asshole and ended the call
