I don't know what to do about my anger with my mom and real family. My mom has done alot of bad stuff to my siblings and I ever since we were young and it went as far as us being put in foster care and her giving up her rights. So after that we got adopted by the person I call my "mom" now.
But anyway, last year my mom got out of prison, off the streets and became a Christian. And she is trying to act like nothing has changed and I still have to give her respect (I'm 19 now and my sister is 21, we were taken away when I was 12 and she was 14). So, I get really angry with her because she expects me to act a certain way towards her and the rest of my real family, but I don't feel any of them had the right when they never tried to help me and just turned a blind eye, never once asking how we were doing. I know I am supposed to honor my mother and father, but this is such a struggle. My older sister doesn't even want to speak to my mom ever again and I tried being a good daughter but she expects me to pick up where we left off but I will never respect her again. She brags about her life and I find it(and her) very embarrassing. Please help me, because it seems that every time I'm around her I become extremely annoyed and just want to go back to my dorm and never speak to her again. She......ugh idk....I just really need help with this.
