My grandmother is a self-centered, ruthless person. She has used us in order to get a free place to live, and she's masqueraded it so that she acts nice and gentle. I called her out today, when she wanted me to turn my back to my own father. He and my Nana have had ridiculous tension, while my mother wants everyone to be happy, since it is HER mother.

My Nana wants her stuff in the basement under her addition (which she has claimed as "hers"), her stuff which she doesn't use. She wanted shelves on the side wall of the basement, which was impossible because of how the beams were. My father built them in the back, grandma wasn't happy.

In a last ditch attempt to please her, he put up some very strong shelves on the side, which was an all day job, and she still didn't like it because it wasn't on the right side of the basement. My father explained to her how we couldn't put shelves there because of the radiator and exposed pipes, but she didn't care, and protested that this was hers, hated the fact that some of our stuff was in there since we have no room anywhere else, and threw a hissy fit all over the place.

My dad had enough. He called her "fucking insane" and a self-centered, undermining person who thinks only of herself. My window was open at the time. I heard the whole fight.

Later, when she confronted me about how awful my father is, I called her out, and told her how I heard the whole fight, and said that her story and my dad's story didn't match up. She then proceeded to tell me he was never a good father. I've had it.

It's a shame, really; when was in my preteens and earlier, my Nana and Pop-pop (gods rest his soul) were my heroes. They could do no wrong. Now, she's trying to turn me against my own father by lying to me.

What the fuck do I do?

Not so sure, really.

Although it's harder than it sounds, it's probably something you should try NOT to get tangled up in for the sheer fact that if you did it'll probably get you targeted for something you really don't want to be part of. I'd probably lay low in something like this and try not to make too many waves.

Even if your grandmother is in the wrong, I don't think you'll be the one that should be the person to call her out on it. Even if you found a way to do it completely right, I don't see a good way that saying something will make it any better for someone like her...likely she'll go into denial and then bitch at you for saying something.

Still adds to my theory of people never growing up past age 14; they just get bigger and older.

She already bitched me out. I'm so pissed and confused that I'm sick. I chain smoked about 5 cigarettes, and now I just wanna get drunk and forget all about this mess. It's such a head fuck.

A bit of an update:
See... We put all her shit outside her basement. Dad told me not to help her put it away. She asked me for help, begging me. If i help her, my father, whom i love and cherish will think I've turned against him. If i don't, neutrality will be impossible.
What the hell?

This shouldn't be difficult. If it's impossible to support no one, then support the one who you care about more.

I put them away, but my dad was cool with it. We both agreed, though, that we lost all respect we once had for her.
She fucking ruined it for the whole family. I just can't for her to finally succumb to old age so she leaves us alone. Cruel, yes, but we'll all be a helluva lot happier, and so will she.
