Dysfunctional Family Stories?

mrfriendly8181 ๐Ÿšซ 10/19/2021, 4:10:51 PM

Male protag where the family has been mean/cruel/horrid and betrays him causing the MC to leave. No need for a reconciliation but that would be nice as well. Incest is fine not a requirement either. Here or any site you can think of which hosts the story.

Thank you

Whee โ€” I've seen a few of these. The one that sticks out in memory is A Fresh Start by rlfj.

I'll see if I can knock a few others out of the ol' memory bank.

@Quasirandom

Thank you! I look forward to any others you can remember. Feeling like I need to sympathize with some characters who have shitty families. LOL

@Quasirandom

The one that sticks out in memory is

In that case, wouldn't Michael Loucks' first book in the 'A Well-Lived Life' series qualify?

Well, the problems with his mother last longer than that. I suppose it counts? It's not the whole family, though, which is why I didn't think of it.

Xailr's Third Time's the Charm would fit the bill, as would woodmanone's Back Home Again.

Try Lazlo Zalezac's "The Enabler". About as dysfunctional as they come. https://storiesonline.net/s/14635/the-enabler

Wojek's 'New Beginning and Beyond is pretty much an example of a somewhat dysfunctional family just striving to get along.
