Balmaed for problem

I was recenlty balamed for losing a cat in the house. I didnt do it. I would hunt for it if she went out of the house. They found her in the bedroom. I was yelled out by two gd and step daughter (13 yo). Today they apologized, but it still hurts. Usually anything that happens in the house is my fault (usually) they claim. How should I fell about that? It makes me crazy. I know if they didnt find the cat, it would be my fault always. I HATE it. forgive me for ranting.

They owe YOU an apology for jumping to conclusions and making you the scapegoat. That's bullshit. Tell them so. Especially the 13 year old. She could get into a lot of trouble for immediately blaming someone without evidence in the future if she's not careful. That's a dangerous game.

They need a consequence for that. My step-son 11, blamed me for taking his money one time. I had him choose it, I gave him choices.

He needed to learn also why it wrong. It was hurtful and deceitful.

I got the apology and my GF gave me a kiss when she left for work. Which is unusal for her. I also got an apology from the 13 yo. I just dont feel happy about it at all.

You don't feel happy about it because you are suspect No. 1. No one likes that feeling. They are scapegoating you and they need to stop. Apologies are fine but do they understand what they are doing? They could easily do it again. It's inexcusable. When something happens they need to be rational and look at the evidence...NOT POINT FINGERS. Tell them that. They wouldn't like it if the were in your shoes all the time either. Innocent until proven guilty!!
