All I can say is that, yes, this absolutely happens to people. Sometimes abuse is loud, bold, and psychologically twisted like this. Other times, it’s well-placed silence.
PSA: If you have anyone you care about with bad family like this, and know you can provide a better environment for just a few hours, have them over for a family meal. You’ll make a friend for life.

It’s great that you’ve never had a passive aggressive family member to deal with.
