Have you been blocked by a loved one?

1 Answer

Answer :

Yep. Most recently my oldest sister. It’s a long story but she is married to a pedophile and I stood up for my other sister (the victim) when she kept trying to push him into her life during a stressful time. I kindly asked her to quit volunteering him to go to her house and do errands. She got all defensive for him and said he was forgiven. I said. “God may have forgiven him but that doesn’t change anything for his victims.” She took great offense. She’s been married to him 50 years and he never suffered any consequences for abusing at least 3 children in the family that we know of.
