The internet is often a sounding board for frustrated people who aren’t being treated fairly.

Occasionally, their gripes sometimes find huge audiences.

When this man’s complaints about his family go mega-viral, his family is less than pleased their dirty laundry being out for all to see.

They beg for him to take the posts down, but he claims it’s payback for their poor behavior.

You’ll want to read on for this one.

My sister called me demanding I take my posts down. Now she’s more upset than ever to know how far it’s spread

Having a family that knows about your Reddit account has its disadvantages.

Yesterday, my sister called me after I got off work to ask if comments were still coming in.

The comments were having quite the effect on his sister.

She said she cannot bear the negativity of looking at them herself because the comments are all so hurtful towards her.

So I was brutally honest. At least ten comments are still coming in daily, and most of them say the same things about her.

She started crying and demanding I delete my Reddit posts, but I refused.

If she was so upset about it, she should have thought twice before behaving the way she did.

I told her she could cry to anyone she wanted, but the posts stay up because they are my assurance she won’t try to treat me like crap anymore.

After all, she literally felt like my life should revolve around hers.

She didn’t pay me the babysitting money she owed and forced me to be the constant babysitter on last year’s family vacation, leaving me with pretty much no fun at all.

Is it any wonder people are having so much hate for her when she treated me like that?

He informs her the posts have actually spread much further than just on Reddit, which sent her into an even deeper tailspin.

Then, when I mentioned that the posts have already spread to other websites, she shrieked and hung up.

I had been asked a couple of times to let an article be made about my situation, and there are some videos that were read as well.

So then the ‘rents got involved.

My parents then called me, begging me to take the posts down.

I refused and stated that I only did this because they didn’t stick up for me. This would have never happened if they had told my sister to treat me like an equal and not a servant.

I’m not her butler, babysitter, or handyman; I’m her freaking brother and a grown man! Wouldn’t they be tired of this crap in my shoes too?

They agreed but still begged me to take the posts down.

But he stands his ground, claiming they played a role in enabling all her bad behavior.

I refused again and said that I’ll keep making more if they don’t start sticking up for me more when my sister comes crying to them.

Let her clean up her own messes. All the enabling of her led to this.

I didn’t father those kids; I’ve got a life of my own, a career I’m still new to, and hopefully, soon enough, a girlfriend since there’s someone I want to ask out.

He’s determined to not let all the drama get in the way of enjoying himself.

I’m moving my life forward, and I won’t be held back. They can either step out of my way or keep trying to enable my sister, but I assured them that the latter would end badly for them.

The only way this posting on Reddit will stop is if the drama stops. I’ve kept things anonymous, and I have a right to vent my very valid frustrations.

It’s going to take a lot more than tears to change his mind about this.

Well, that left my mother crying, and my father just went silent.

I told them that tears don’t move me. They know what it will take to end this: stop enabling my sister.

My sister called me again, yelling that our parents told her they aren’t dealing with this anymore and that she needs to figure it out herself. Oh, and they told her to be nicer to me too.

In his mind, “being nice” shouldn’t be such a difficult request.

I could picture her eye twitching as she internally screamed after hearing that. “Be nice to my kid brother? What is this? Do I look it up on Google?”

Yeah, I was that sarcastic to her. But it left her crying too when I hung up.

He even got his sister’s husband on his side.

My brother-in-law called me later to get my side of the story.

He was mad that I was still posting and that it made his wife cry. But I explained everything to him, and he said he’d have another talk with my sister.

I’m hoping this drama finally ends here. But the family vacation is still on for late June.

Against all the odds, they still have an upcoming vacation together.

I’ve already booked my room and put in for a day off work so we can all leave on a Friday. My room is also not near the ones my parents, sister, BIL, and nephews will be using.

But he’s ready to put some distance between him and the rest of his family.

In fact, it’s not even on the same floor. When we go to the coast, I’m going to go where I want and do what I want during the free time.

You can bet I’m going to tour those art galleries, pig out on local food, and just enjoy being carefree for a change.

Someone needs to break the cycle of enabling behavior, which is exactly what he’s done.

What did redditors think of all this family drama?

Actually be respectful for once? How on earth will she go on?!

Someone’s got a guilty conscience…

The sister should be more upset about hurting her brother than actually getting caught and held accountable for it.

His family had more than one chance to change their behavior, so they forced his hand.

If this is the only way to force his sister to take accountability, then so be it.
