While 282 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: she frequently called and interacted with Lucy's parents, Jessica was 283 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: never close to my mom's side of the family because 284 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: she'd rather spend time with Lucy's family and or didn't 285 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: want to hurt their feelings. When Lucy moved in, she 286 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: and my dad took down all of my mom's pictures 287 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: and got rid of her things. 288 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 2: Uh. 289 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like like I think OP feels like his 290 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 3: day is trying to erase Mom. 291 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: Which, yeah, I was not allowed to keep any of 292 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: the pictures in my room. 293 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 2: Oh that's fucked. 294 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I would catch heat if I tried to 295 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 1: celebrate my mom's birthday morn on the anniversary of her 296 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: death and get punished if I didn't celebrate Mother's Day 297 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 1: the way Lucy wanted me to. 298 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: That is super funked. 299 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 3: Okay, context we were looking from starting to see why 300 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 3: this is so fuked. 301 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, she wasn't the saint of a woman 302 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: who stepped in when my mom couldn't be there for me. 303 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: And because I keep seeing the same questions. One, I 304 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: don't blame Jessica for choosing to be adopted. Now, I'm 305 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 1: angry at her belief that she should get any money 306 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: from my grandparents, despite never showing any interest in having 307 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: a relationship with them once she was eighteen plus. They 308 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: reached out numerous times, but she never bothered yet has 309 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: the belief that she's entitled to their money. That's what 310 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: ticked me off too. My mom has a sister who 311 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: also has kids. I'm not getting the full two hundred 312 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: and fifty k. So's okay, there's splitting splitting. Jessica would 313 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: basically receive zero yeah. 314 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: And three No. 315 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 1: I didn't expect anyone from Lucy's side to leave me anything, 316 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: nor would I demand Jessica to share it would be 317 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: completely hypocritical. And final small update, my maternal cousins and 318 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: I had a meeting and we all agree that since 319 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: Jessica couldn't be bothered to speak or spend time with 320 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: our grandparents once she was an adult, she didn't deserve 321 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: any of the money we had. Our grandma's a state 322 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: lawyer send out an official letter to Jessica. She said 323 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: that she would challenge the will, and I told her 324 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: that she's welcome to do so. I am fully prepared 325 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: to never see or I am fully prepared to never 326 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: see or speak to her ever again. 327 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: Over this.
