You are not a bad person. It is in fact quite common to wish gor the bad parent to suffer. I know it is hard to take this step, there is a lot of red tape, fear and shame, but have you considered talking with Child Protective Services about the situation?
I’ve had a couple of years of therapy, and am waiting for some other orgs to make contact with me after an intake I had yesterday. But that’s mostly for myself, anything related to my siblings I think I cannot easily initiate.
You are taking care of yourself, that’s good! I also think I unintentinally placed way to much responsibility on you in my previous comment. I didn’t expect it to read as you having to take care of your siblings wellbeing or didn’t realize how hard this is. This is a put your own oxygen mask on before helping others situation. It sucks but it’s the right thing. Hope the orgs call back soon and can help you through this.
Legally, I’m an adult (21 y/o), so CPS wouldn’t apply to me. That’s why I assumed you were talking about my siblings 😅 but you had no way of knowing my age
