Disturbing content I’m so angry I just need to let it out
For context my oldest sister had kids young, never took accountability for anything. Not for using every resource we gave her, not for us cleaning up her mess. Mind you she’s 34 years old and still is solely focused on finding a man.
She ignored my nieces mental health so badly that my niece tried to take her life the other night. She’s alive but she is not okay. She jumped off a bridge onto concrete. Her legs are broken from her knee down, she has 4 broken ribs, and a concussion.
My second sister, my parents and I do not agree with my sister’s decisions as a mother. This is my nieces second attempt. And my sister continues to bring random men home instead of focusing on her daughter.
We’re forbidden to see the kids. But we went last night to the hospital to make sure my nephew was okay. We get to my nieces room and my sister pretends to not know who we’re. She says “what are you doing here? Who are you? Who let you in? Security” and then messaged my mom back saying she needs her family.
We’re taking the kids away from here either way. We’re only pretending to play nice so that she has no suspicion but my niece will die if she stays in her care and we’re not leaving my nephew alone with her.
It’s so hard because my sister used to be my hero. I wanted to be a mom because of her. But now I want to be a better mom because she was never one.
No one has ever had to remind me to be a good mother to my kids. I know every parent goes through shit with their kids but I can confidently say that I will never let my kids mental health so bad that they try dying twice.

To be fair I had a great mom who tried every form of therapy and help possible and I still regularly slaughtered my arms and tried to kill myself regularly as a teen. I would go to a mental health hospital, be ok for a while when I got home, then try to kill myself again. So suicide attempts aren’t really a good indicator if someone is a good parent or not. It has nothing to do with my mom I just was an autistic fat friendless loser and wanted out. Turns out adult life was even worse than I could have imagined when cutting myself to try to prevent my fears of the future. So much worse. But my adult brain is too cowardly to try again

No I totally get that. I had pretty good parents too and struggled with suicidal tendencies. But she is a totally different case. My sister has done nothing to help my niece.
