For some reason, Poo is much funnier than poop.

But this isn't funny, honestly, how awful! I am so sorry, you are going through this. It's emotional blackmail.
I don't have siblings I grew up with, but I do have some half siblings, and neither my mother, nor the siblings want to see each other, or even hear about each other. None of the family on my father's side has ever wanted to meet me, I have very little family, and yet mother regularly guilt trips me about any contact with the siblings, so that I barely ever talk to them. If my mother did this with a sibling I had grown up with, I would be heartbroken.

It is just so wrong!
When I think about this situation, I am reminded that my extended family, my network of friends, has sometimes been safer and more supportive than "real" family.
