My maternal half-cousins and half-aunt would chat with my step-grandfather about myself and Mother living elsewhere. (I heard their conversations often)
"She never does any housework" (Objectively false. I have other problems with her, however...)
"They're leeching from us" (I never asked them for food or even clothing. I very rarely spoke to them.)
He would get upset when Mother would ask him to pick up our prescriptions from stores. He'd also get upset when Mother asked to visit grocery stores. This is despite taking my half-relatives to stores/fast food restaurants multiple times weekly. Medical appointments as well(When medical transportation wasn't an option).
My half-aunt's lovely statements:
"[Mother] sits around all day"
"I thought [Mother] said they had no food" (Me and Mother relied on food pantry boxes/SNAP)
"[Intellau] will tell his mother if we bully him" (Maternal half-cousins; they abused my younger half-cousin somewhat since she was reluctant to do so.)
As a child, my half-aunt would patronize me for my autistic behavior. She would criticize my sluggish movements and depressed demeanor. "Hurry up [Intellau]!" - I also had social cue problems and misunderstood instructions from her.
They are kleptomaniacs; they would take portions of our food home after "visiting".
Lastly:
"(I never asked them for food or even clothing. I very rarely spoke to them.)"
Indeed. I was very grateful when my grandmother stopped giving me meals at the age of seventeen due to her view of me as an ingrate. She often said "[Intellau] was born with a silver spoon in his mouth" because I was anxious and struggling to help her with house tasks due to my NLD(I would help them with laundry, unpacking groceries, washing dishes, fetching items they needed, ...).
